Excuses will fly in, always the victim...
See Hearts have released a statement mate
Wee guy stuff
Heart of Midlothian utterly condemns the shameful scenes at Celtic Park this afternoon which have, once again, embarrassed Scottish football.
Reports of serious physical and verbal abuse towards our players and staff, both on the pitch and elsewhere, are deeply disturbing. We are investigating this fully and are in dialogue with Police Scotland. We will make no further comment at this time other than to say that it is completely unacceptable that our players and staff were put in that situation.
Given the menacing and threatening atmosphere inside the stadium, our entire staff had no alternative but to leave immediately, without undertaking post-match media duties. To our media partners, we apologise but the safety of our staff was our prime focus during these unacceptable scenes.
The pitch invasion caused a chaotic end and nobody seemed to know whether or not the match had been brought to a finish.
Our players were then denied the opportunity to thank our magnificent fans – sensational to a person – for their backing this afternoon and all season long We expect the strongest action possible to be taken by the footballing authorities in the interests of protecting the safety of players and supporters, and the integrity of our game.
This season has seen Hearts capture the imagination of football fans, not only in Scotland, but the world over. We pay tribute to Derek McInnes, his staff, the first team and the supporters, who have done the club proud this season. None of them deserved the disgraceful scenes that unfolded.
Be a few quid spent on ground improvements...new container ordered yet?Well done Stenhousemuir promotion ti the Championship 0-1 on the night but 3-2 on aggregate
Good luck to Gary Naismith on his new appointment at Ayr, what an amazing job he has done at the Warriors.

The entire incident has completely overshadowed the match and who knows what the authorities will do now. Certainly recent events in Czechia in the Prague derby saw the attacked team be subsequently awarded a 3-0 victory.
Always prefer Motherwelll in Scotland but been class watching hearts take it to the old firm scum.Absolutely shocking and disgraceful scenes today in what should’ve been a showcase game for Scottish football (thanks to the incredible efforts of Hearts this season).
To have a pitch invasion during the match and our players physically attacked by hoards of Celtic scum has brought disgrace to Scottish football.
Thankfully the cowardly Celtic fans scarpered when the Hearts bench ran on the defend our under-attack captain. But effectively, the match was abandoned with time still left in the clock.
Such was the lack of security at Parkhead, our entire staff and players were forced to leave the stadium before the players could even get showered.
The entire incident has completely overshadowed the match and who knows what the authorities will do now. Certainly recent events in Czechia in the Prague derby saw the attacked team be subsequently awarded a 3-0 victory.
What an appalling end to the season.

This. Celtic and Rangers are two cheeks of the same bigoted, religion-obsessed backside. I'm just glad religion doesn't come into it with Everton and the RS. We hate them because they're kopites, not because of which church their grandads went to.I would rather Everton had nothing to do with either. Both bad bigots
God it makes you want to throw up
I only just noticed the stand for the 9 year old ultras was a container a couple of weeks agoBe a few quid spent on ground improvements...new container ordered yet?
That looks like a player assaulting a fan to me
Don't worry mate, kopites like that will find a way to be the victimConnor, three questions for you: is that the entire clip? Do you think these fans should be on the pitch during the match? Are you stupid?
