Title: Old Sod's Army-from the mess
Post by: bog on May 16, 2026, 08:08:18 AM
For the first time in many years there is lot of media interest in the final day of the Scottish Premiership. Good luck to Heart of Midlothian. First time in 66 years in with a chance to win the league. ::thumb::

Personally I find this game more interesting than the cup final.

Thank you and good night.

I would love them to win the league but if its a draw going into the last few minutes watch out for a Celtic penalty

Hoping there are no red cards or contentious decisions so the two sides battle it out to confirm the champions.

Shame there's only 752 Hearts fans officially in the ground.

If that had been the other way round that would have been disallowed.

Poor from Celtic using the ball boys to delay play, invade the pitch & then abuse the Hearts players.

laugh if Celtic got a points deduction for the pitch invasion

No way did they finish the match, 97:31 on the clock when the goal went in.

I have only just recognised that Callum Osmond who has played so well for Celtic played for our U21s but left on a free transfer because of his age. He was our young top scorer but refused a contract with us and was determined to move on.i wonder if Marco would have given him a chance?

Game changed minutes before h/t.
Hearts go 1 up,90 seconds later Celtic get a penalty.😅
That and the one on Wednesday night against Motherwell,that's what done Hearts.
As I said on another topic,the Sfa,don't want anyone bar the Old Firm to win anything.

Imagine being in a league where there have only been two clubs who have won that league since the 1984/85 season. It must be horrendously depressing. Celtic have won the title in fourteen of the last fifteen seasons. Does a Celtic fan really enjoy that, knowing that you are the best in a rubbish league?

The English top flight in that time has seen nine different champions, with a further three clubs (not in that nine) who've finished second so at least we have had some variety. Though increasingly our top flight is focussed on a handful of so called "big clubs".

Now for the cup final with two more so called "big clubs", both financial cheats. Hopefully the game will be abandoned because of crowd trouble and not replayed.

And the reason for that is money.
The old firm are way way ahead money invested,so the other clubs are right up against it,before the season starts.
A club like Aberdeen who've won European Trophies,now having to rely on loans and free signings.

It is custom for the team at the top when the Championship group splits gets to be at home on the last match........that was of course Hearts

But the SFA even fixed that bit

Penalty to Celtic during the week was scandalous

Hearts just dissolved second half without Kabore and the Greek bloke

Celtic could be in trouble now.
The pitch invasion,the ball boys stunt,and apparently Hearts players assaulted on the pitch,Shankland took a severe punch to the forehead.
Hearts manager so disgusted he took the team straight to their coach,still in their kit,and back to Edinburgh..See what happens.

Here's wishing but I think a 'massive' £50k fine is more likely.

Hopefully the guys who assaulted the Hearts players will get a 6am visit from the old bill.

There should be no glory in winning a title like that. Nothing short of a disgrace- at every level.

Is it me or did their 2nd goal look offside on VAR? The linesman was a brave man with guts when lifting his flag.
Sadly it seemed to me that VAR didn't have any and were more concerned about a riot. I am really p***** off.  ::angry:: As for those s***** ball boys.... ::angry:: 

I really feel for the Hearts' fans.

Was good for us in the U21s, scored a "proper" hat trick (left foot, right foot, header) in a U21 final. Thought that we should have done more to keep him, either through a contract and/or first team involvement but wasn't to be. His progress at Celtic has been delayed by a bad early season injury, but looks like he's OK now.

It's the same in Germany. Bayern Munchin won the league 10 years in a row. Boring.

For the first time since 1957 I had no interest in yesterday's FA Cup final because of who was competing  and glad I was out. Apparently two 'great teams' for all their millions provided a dire game.

I think that may have something to do with not disallowing that second goal. Of some concern.

Only savages would assault medics and police attending a medical emergency.
