SPFL Statement
"Firstly, we send our congratulations to Celtic on winning the William Hill Premiership in the most exciting of circumstances and send our commiserations to everyone at Heart of Midlothian following an incredible campaign.
“We would also like to thank the referee and his excellent team of match officials for their cool heads on such a dramatic day. Given the speculation about the conclusion of the game, we would like to make clear that, prior to awarding the trophy, we were informed by the match referee that the match had ended and had not been abandoned.
"Yesterday’s match showed off the very best of the Scottish game and the drama and excitement that it is rightly famed for. The eyes of the world were on Glasgow and the climax of the William Hill Premiership, with millions of viewers watching the match on Sky Sports and across the globe.
"However, we utterly condemn the scenes which saw a number of Celtic supporters encroach onto the field of play. We await the report of our match delegate regarding any specific incidents that took place but, regardless, supporters entering the field of play in any circumstances is wholly unacceptable and puts those participating and working at a match at risk. We note that entering the pitch in England and Wales has been a criminal offence since 1991. We urge anyone with information about any alleged criminal activity to contact Police Scotland."
@ks1872_ It’s embarrassing from both, for a start the manager shouldn’t even be giving them the time of day and embarrassing that the union bears think they have any say at all with him. He’s using them if anything. The Copland still don’t even want them. Clubs a mess
@JimFairlieLogie You and John must be so proud of Perthshire taking care of the outskirts and letting the city centre go to ruin. The gravy train keeps on rolling.
@JimFairlieLogie A city riddled with drugs and crime. A city that once thrived with tourism now overrun with immigrants thanks to the hotels one of which had a lovely gym, swimming pool and health suite now run down and an eye sore and a dying town centre full of shoplifters. Great work Jim
@DownWithTheSNP Sadly this is what Perth is becoming now, this so called Scottish party is changing the face of everything in our country. Perth has been a declining city under this government for a long, long time. John cares about votes and not our own future generations.
@HumzaYousaf@theSNP@JohnSwinney Why do you so blatantly lie and peddle the same nonsense every year. It’s comical. You were a cog in a failing wheel Humza. Poverty & crime is on the rise every year. This party will be remembered for ruining a once great country and failing our children in almost two decades.
@JohnSwinney No they didn’t John. You are a liar and the wider Scottish population will always say no to your independent cult party. Perthshire has been ruined by you and that shows with the rise in serious offensive weapon crimes and open drug dealers in the city. Our kids aren’t safe. 🦝
@CraigHouston_ You are a good man Craig but sadly in Scotland we dilute the vote so much that this cult party will continue to ruin the country. Keep up the good work 🇬🇧
@RangersFC We will do what we want in the Piggery and watch them retreat again. Standing up for ourselves isn’t a crime. You know the script bears AT 🥷
@RangersFCSLO 1 away all season but it’s fine all the ring sniffers who mooch about with Greg and Scott will be sorted. A closed shop ticketing system and money making scheme from loyal fans who get very little in return.
@scotgov@JohnSwinney Saint Andrew will be looking down on Scotland today and be in disbelief at how our Christian faith is being eradicated by a government more interested in accepting cash for immigrants rather than worrying about the native Scot. The snp has sold its soul to the devil.
@JohnSwinney@ScotParl We have stooped to new lows as a country with this one, it’s hopefully the nail needed for your cult. Supporting a land that given half the chance the majority of people would slaughter proud Scottish men, women and children is mental. You don’t relate to native Scots anymore.
@ScotGovFM@JohnSwinney@hzomlot Resign now John. You should be worrying about Scotland instead of terrorists. The snp are just as bad as hamas and have ruined Scotland in a similar fashion.
@JohnSwinney Did you get a good look at the hotels up that neck of the woods on the same trip John? Save you flooding Perthshire for a change. Time is up
More hotels in Perthshire being announced for housing illegal undocumented aliens. You should all be absolutely ashamed for what you are doing to Perthshire. @theSNP@JohnSwinney@PeteWishart. Traitors!!

@theSNP have ruined so many lovely places in Scotland and this one is in @JohnSwinney own back yard. Expect a backlash from this one, Perth won’t be happy especially with more being added to the hotels.
