Some achievement by Martin O Neill after a basket case year at Parkhead, wallpapers over the cracks but a seismic summer of change at Celtic is needed.

You can’t help feel for Hearts, gave it woo they had but it’s a big ask going to Parkhead to win the league, ran out of gas in the end. But the year that was in it they would have been worthy champions. Commiserations to Hearts.

Great race.

What? It's the most expensively assembled squad in the league by a distance and has won 13 of the 14 league titles before today. And were they ever any more than 5 points behind?

No achievement at all tbh.

Both sets of fans have the same deliberate ignorance of how blatantly the league is rigged for them.

whilst also being convinced that it’s entirely rigged against them

Tainted title. The second goal may have been a proper application of the rule, but it’s blatantly offside given he’s interfering with play and is offside when the pass is made before scoring the cutback.

And the match should have been abandoned for the pitch invasion.

Behave

It just shows how stupid the rule is. He gained an advantage from being in an offside position.

The game would be stopped every 20 seconds otherwise

Top two teams in a do or die game, it was about as exciting and on par with mid table division 1, there wasn't a single player I would actually pay cash for

I grew up liking Celtic and would've considered them as close to a second team as I've ever had but I saw the writing on the wall years ago. They're just green and white Scottish kopites.

 

[Big Sams Undies]

How do both Glasgow teams get away with the shameful behaviour their fans display regularly?

 

[Willie Thorne]

I thought when they added on time its "A minimum of x minutes of time will be played" That wasn't 8 minutes. Hearts should take this alot further.

Celtic today basically won due to the stupid current application of the rules.

The first handball for the penalty was a nonsense for me. There’s no way at that speed the defender was trying to hit the ball with his hand as he slid for the ball.

Then they win with a goal where the striker is offside and gains an advantage from it.

To top it all off fans invade the pitch before the match is actually completed, so it should actually be abandoned and given as a 3-0 win to Hearts. But it won’t.

Ball wasn’t going to Daizen so Osmand was onside, then Daizen was on for the cut back

Similarish scenario to Barry’s first against City, off on first sequence but on for the second (Guehi’s pass back)

Hearts were terrible second half, constantly giving the ball away, hitting it anywhere, no composure at all.

Back to the monotony i guess

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

The game would be stopped every 20 seconds otherwise

Or breaking the offside trap with well-timed runs would once again become a skill.
