Is this a skit?

🗣️“I can categorically say, it never hit my hand."

Ex-Hearts star Sam Nicholson has spoken out on THAT handball decision at Fir Park.

An exclusive chat with @Graeme_McGarry

Motherwell/Hearts…
VAR to ref - “That’s a penalty”
Ref to VAR - “No, it’s not”

Motherwell/Celtic
VAR to ref - “That’s a penalty”
Ref to VAR - “Is it? Aye, okay then”

Frightening.

[Paul @PMcG___]

@ScotlandSky Wow. If any more evidence was needed that the title was handed to Celtic, this is it.

[Paul @PMcG___]

Chat of refs striking when they should be sacked like I would be if I made mistakes like that 🫣

[Paul @PMcG___]

@scotsunsport Only question is, why was it given in the first place and why was hearts penalty, which has also since been confirmed as the wrong decision, not given?

[Paul @PMcG___]

@Bernadette53049 @ScotlandSky With Derek McInness calling full time?

[Paul @PMcG___]

If you are releasing the audio, at least release the full audio. Why edit it to only show certain parts? Give us the refs audio

[Paul @PMcG___]

So does that mean Neil Lennon can get the game finished early on Saturday if Dunfermline take the lead?

[Paul @PMcG___]

@AnthonyRJoseph The audio & statement confirms Hearts point….surrounding the premature ending of the match, and expressing our concern that a troubling precedent has been set whereby a pitch invasion can effectively determine the duration of a football match, rather than the match officials

[Paul @PMcG___]

Why has previous statement been removed?

@ScottishFA Why has previous statement been removed?

[Paul @PMcG___]

@ClydeSSB It’s not the Hearts Managers decision for the game to end 🫣

[Paul @PMcG___]

@ScottishFA So it was abandoned - good that’s been cleared up.

Guys accents fucking awful but he’s absolutely bang on in everything he says.

Scottish media are the only ones turning a blind eye to it and we know exactly why that is 👍🏻

[Super Tony Bloom 🖥 ⚽️🖱🔍📄💰 @SuperJoeSavage]

Retweet if you think Celtic Football club were helped by referee's and VAR this season to win this title unfairly

[Paul @PMcG___]

@spfl Very weak statement

[Paul @PMcG___]

Was the game abandoned or was full-time called by the ref? Confirmed here @JamTarts

[Sky Sports Scotland @ScotlandSky]

🗣️ “If Hearts players have been accosted by some of our fans, that’s pretty serious.”
🗣️ “I was asking the fourth official, or one of the linesmen, in the tunnel, and he said it’s over.”

[The 4th Official @Official_T4O]

Rules say Hearts should be given the title after what happened before the final whistle was blown.

However, zero chance this SPFL has the spine to implement this decision.
