Hearts fire off formal complaint
Hearts have slammed the ending of the title-deciding match at Celtic Park, calling it a "premature end" that sets a "troubling precedent" (1). The club has now released multiple statements condemning the final-day chaos that accompanied your team lifting the trophy (3). The formal complaint directly targets the events around Celtic's championship celebration.
O'Neill in the firing line
Hearts have also taken aim at Martin O'Neill, branding his defence of the pitch invasion "highly irresponsible" and warning of "dangerous implications" (2). The Celtic boss's remarks have poured fuel on an already heated situation, with Hearts making it clear they hold him partly responsible for the atmosphere that led to the disruption.
