They've not done themselves any favour's, winging to the media saying, it's no fair.
Funny as fuck. Sometimes it's better to keep your mooth shut.

Derek is trying to use a tactic the Huns have been using for decades to put pressure on the referees but he keeps forgetting it's hearts he's managing and establishment favourites Celtic he's up against 😂
 
Celtic clear favourites to win on Saturday because they are at home, and it's a do or die match for the title.
The idea of them losing the league title in front of 50,000 of their own fans at a fever pitch Celtic Park to Hearts is completely unthinkable for them.
So yes, they are favourites all right and yet...

Hearts just need a draw.
Celtic are nowhere near their usual standard.
They have failed to beat Hearts even once this season, and have already lost at home to them.
This sort of game suits McInnes and his team...it will all be about early goals. If Celtic don't get early goals...and certainly first half goals... I can see the nervousness creeping in as the game drags on, and Hearts IMO are well capable of exploiting that. They have answered every question asked of them this season, and their manager is the master of grinding out the one goal win or score draw, and basically seeing out a game.

I think unless Celtic get first half goals in the bag, that it will be extremely close.

RE last nights penalty. I have seen much worse penalty decision awards given this season than that. The one given against Hibs in the Legia Warsaw game at Easter Road last summer involving Rocky Bushiri was right up there with the worst I have ever seen. There have been plenty more. However it was the significance of the game and the timing which has caused the eruption of fury. I've said enough before about what I think about VAR and it's slow destruction of the game of football in the modern era, but my feeling is that it's the actual new rules of the game which are the biggest problem, VAR has just shown them up to everyone. The handball in the penalty box rule is a total joke, as is the new offside rules with lines being drawn up to see if a players shoulder is in an offside position. Hearts are trying to get the sympathy vote before Saturday's match in the hope that they will benefit form a big decision in that game to equal things out. What's forgotten of course is that they have already been the beneficiaries of several very contentious VAR decisions during the course of this season.

Guy came back with it doesn't matter who his parents support, he's a Motherwell employee should be forced to play 😅😅

I’m happy for the duopoly to continue in the light of the current threat.

Anyone but Gunts.
Had to laugh at fans of the dons, the arabs etc saying everybody outside glasgow should want hearts to win. Seriously. Do you think birmingham fans would want want villa to win the league or either side of tannadice street want the other to win. If they are your local rivals you want them to win feck all.

In a way var and the ref actually showed a lot of bottle giving it. Var did its job then its up to the ref. The fact that it happened when it did is utterly irrelevant. Weve had some shockers against us this season and the livi one at hunbrox the worst decision possible. There is a decision to be made. Whether you agree with it is another matter. Most decisions are subjective.
 
This is what Hearts wanted. This is the excuse, Celtic beating Motherwell. That decision writes off all the matches they failed to win in one swoop.

No need to say what if we scored that chance or whatever. All gone, another team getting 3pts is the reason and this will forever be the excuse if they fail which I hope they do.

The funniest thing is had all the decisions that have went in their favour were corrected they wouldn't be in a title race yet they want to focus on this one decision as the reason they'll not win the league 😂 they're a fucking joke of a club. Eternal bottlers.
