All these pundits saying is was a disgraceful decision to award a pen. Nothing to do with trying to pile the pressure on for Sat.
We had 2 top refs agreeing that it was a pen but these pundits know better.
They say Trusty pushed the defenders hand onto the ball, but the defender jumped into Trusty with his hand up so he's asking for trouble. You can blame Trusty for pushing the defenders hand in a certain direction.

Sam Nicholson who handled the ball is actually a Hearts supporter.
Sam was a local boy who went to school in Midlothian and he went through the Hearts youth system.
He went on to play 120 times for Hearts scoring 15 goals which included goals in home draws against both Celtic and Hibs.

I'm still not sure on it. It's a soft one and for me, shouldn't be a handball. But did Collum not come out halfway through the season and say that the directive was no hands above shoulder height?
Either way, the reaction is ridiculous. As if it's the only decision that us, Hearts or any of our opponents over 38 games get for or against.
There's 'corruption' moonhowlers on both sides really. There aren't secret meetings with the highest bidder. The set up and personell are just pap.

His hand was on his forehead is that not an unnatural position.

With verified pics and video showing his hand on the ball the haters are now saying Trusty pushed his arm up?When you laugh at that they then say Well it was a foul throw in ???They are all like Trump supporters. Show them the facts and official verdict but it's all fake news and AI. Saturday is going to be epic!

Only complaing as they're anti Celtic bigots. i then don't care about legitimacy of decision. 3 points won now on to Saturday.

So. when it goes against celtic? We are told these things even them selves out over the season? But when it goes in our favour its a disgusting?
Anything to take away the focus on next season f. c. finishing 3rd and trophyless again.

His hand was above his shoulders and in a totally unnatural position when jumping to head a ball. It was up there as he jumped into Trusty and the arm was up to leverage himself above and over Trusty.
It is a penalty all day going by the rules of the game now.
For the village idiot to say he saw no clear image to say the ball hit his hand, just shows what a moon howler he is.
Even watching the video used by VAR it can been seen to hit his hand.
My question is, if this is a penalty, why was the hibs goal given, as it was a glance off the hand also.
There is absolutely no consistency. That is the problem. A grey area can be interpreted in various ways depending on which club is involved.
The concern about getting rid of VAR is that a certain club will get the benefit of their supporting refs once again.
The goal Tory boy tried to prevent would not have stood, eleven though he was so far behind play and his eyesight can clearly go round corners.

For all VAR's problems, had we not had it this season we would have finished 3rd about 15 points behind Hearts.

Penalty for me. Pure epic if we pull it off tomorrow. If Hearts do it fairly and squarely, kudos to them.
