Worst Celtic team I've seen in years. A full side and we would have beaten them.
The fact they had to resort to time wasting and hitting the ground at every opportunity said it all.

That’s two points dropped, but I’m more convinced than I was before that Hearts can win the league. They were comfortably the better side, even without their three best players. Still a long way to go. Rangers probably the bigger threat now.

Hearts see their lead at the top cut to four but keep Celtic at arm's length.
A manic game, a brilliant atmosphere, loads of tension.
A wee bit of a missed opportunity considering the chances and opponents, but decent result and seven points v Celtic.

Hearts 2-2 Celtic: Eventful game, Braga brilliance, Leonard debut, referee focus
The Scottish Premiership league leaders came from behind twice to earn a point at home to Celtic.

My experience on here is being in an entirely Hearts bubble - unlike on Twitter where oddball opposition fans frequently popped up.
Seeing that nonce Celtic fan getting in amongst the Hearts posts here and I have to say, I don’t miss it.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

This season and the Celebrities prove it: this show is so much better with contestants who know it is a game. Should just lean into that IMO and have 22 contestants for 22 named charities, raise awareness for the charities throughout.

I’m very touched that so many of you have supported my wee fund raiser for @nhslothcharity.bsky.social tonight.
Being a patient isn’t a fun experience, but the staff of @nhslothian.bsky.social have treated me so well this last six months.
Kindness and smiles go a long way in healthcare.

As National Security Adviser, I was often at the UK’s HQ in Helmand, Camp Bastion. Too often, the tannoy would announce medevac helicopters inbound. The huge base w’d fall silent, out of respect for the young men or women who were fighting for their lives. No, they had not stayed a little back.
