    Handball or elbow?

    If either against a Charlton player, we would be screaming.

    Just seen the penalty incident.

    Shocking decision.

    As I've said before, VAR exists to benefit the big teams.

    it may have slightly clipped the hand and ballooned off his head , that can happen , very harsh

    This is all set up to be 1986 all over again with Hearts losing the title to Celtic on the final day.

    Sad times ☹️

    Christ sake well over the top reactions. Hearts only need a draw and I am sure won't lose by 3.  They will do it and even as a Celtic fan fully deserved. 
    Did you miss what happened at the end of the Celtic match?
    Just seen the penalty decision. Would not be happy if that was given against Charlton.

    If that was given against us i'd be fuming.
    If it was given for us, i'd laugh but obviously take it.

    We don't have VAR in the championship though so you can put mistakes down to human error. There's no excuses here, it just looks corrupt.

    The Celtic fans have been moaning about the poor judgement and lack of money spent on transfers, but buying up those match officials was certainly an astute decision by the board!

    Clearly and obviously not deliberate handball, and clearly and obviously he isn't 'unnaturally bigger' given his arm is directly in front of the head he has just launched the ball from.  Utterly ridiculous.

    Only saw one replay, technically looked like a pen as his hand was in an un-natural position above his head but not sure if he was pushed first
    Hmmm, looking at your profile image I’m not sure if you’re impartial on this!
    Would much rather Hearts win. 

    And having seen more replays, its incredibly dubious. Scottish VAR since it was introduced does seem to be hopeless

    I don’t even know what the point is of supporting Celtic. Boring as fuck.

    Historically they have had no real challenge, no point to any of the games outside of the old firm matches. And dicked every year in Europe.

    Second one of the other teams has a run at the title they are insufferable

    Watched it with a Hearts fan. He wasn't a happy chap and rightly so. Please take VAR away, now beyond ridiculous

    Shocking decision. 
    They need to release the conversation/thought process that went on there. 



    Meanwhile, Rohl becomes first manager to lose 4 in a row since 1983 and drops Tavernier from the squad on what would have been his final performance at Ibrox.

    What a corrupt shit league 🤣 that's disgraceful, haven't hearts been done twice now the last couple games, we should be trying to get players to come down south to escape the old firm love in.

    Out of interest, does VAR in Scotland only have one camera? 

    The fact it wasn’t looked at from any other angle just seemed bizarre.

    I think they have two cameras - one marked Celtic and one marked Rangers.
    Scottish football corrupt? Shurely shome mishtake.

    Have the Scottish F.A. announced yet if Celtic are being awarded the trophy before or after the match on Saturday?

    I believe the open top bus parade in Glasgow is scheduled for tomorrow.

    If you think it's a closed deal that Celtic have won it already. Put all your life savings on it.

    Never forget hearts fans giving it large to me walking down Lothian road after beating Cowdenbeath 5-1. Some of cowdens players dad's worked with me at Rosyth dockyard ffs.
     
    Then they had little enamel badges to celebrate a 10 nil victory on the same.

    Nice edit...

    In how many leagues would a 99th minute penalty be boring?

    Intended or accidental?

    Any consideration of the Celtic players shoulder pushing the Hearts players arm toward the ball of which he had no control over?

    It's not a penalty but it gets given to Celtic. Hearts penalty that wasn't awarded on Saturday against Motherwell was a penalty. 
    Either poor officiating or something much worse..

    If I was McInnes I would have been saying there are two reasons that has been given as a penalty, pure utter incompetence or corruption and the SFA needs to tell us which one it is.

    We have poor officials in both England and Scotland. Just look at how many biased and poor officials we faced this season. Last night that was a dreadful decision. I am sure Hearts have had some favourable ones go their way over the course of the season. 

    We've seen for years how bad VAR is and should not be used for matters of opinion. You know when they get called over they will change their mind. Look at Arsenal this season.

    Hearts will get their result and you can all go down the old Kent road skipping.

    Still think Rangers threw it away but it is what it is

    Hearts have broken the duopoly regardless but I fancy them to get the draw they need.

    Except the ref didn't literally a few days before at the exact same ground. Was called over and then didn't give the penalty to Hearts against Motherwell.

    Disgraceful decision last night, but Hearts are more than capable to get the point they require on Saturday lunchtime
