The biggest weekend in the league so far this season as Celtic look to tie up the league had the Celtic fans on tenterhooks and as the team went 1-0 down in the early stages, many of us must have thought, ‘Oh no, here we go.’
But quick goals by Maeda and Kyogo in seven first half minutes put Celtic back in control and the SPFL trophy effectively back into the Parkhead trophy cabinet.
But that’s not all those goals did.
They caused a half time meltdown on the BBC as the panel and commentators debated both Celtic goals.
Craig Levein was adamant that there was a foul by Celtic captain, Callum McGregor, on the run up to Celtic’s equaliser and that view was hotly contested by an unlikely Celtic ally in Tom English.
English refuted Leveins claim that failing to award the foul was the the soul reason for Celtic going into score and said that Hearts failure to defend properly was their ultimate undoing.
The heated exchange continued until Richard Gordon stepped in.
It really was quite the discussion and the realisation that Celtic taking a huge step towards the title at Hearts expense did seem to really bother the former Hearts manager.
I wonder if Crawford Allan will have a word with Mr Robertson about this incident.
The SMSM and pundits sure as hell will never mind CELTIC won 4-1 and could have scored more. That to them will be the main talking point.
Ha ha ha
Levein isnot only a hearts fan he hates everything to do with celtic yes it might have been a foul like a few things in the game Robertson and and his official got wrong punditslet there heart rule there head and and levein can’t hide his dislike for celtic
Levein HATES us…he’s never gotten over 1986 and the day his beloved jam tarts couldn’t cope with Albert Kidd while we gubbed the buddies to lift the league and shatter their delusions of being champions! Screw the miserable bas.
