Well, traditionally the Hearts are the establishment team in Edinburgh - like Rangers are in Glasgow - and you would expect their supporters to be a bit more respectful of the protocols, at least vocally.

It's all rubbish really and I've had it up to here with all the sectarian nonsense in Scotland.

It's actually worse now than when I started following football in 1963. I blame the internet for that.

If you’re referring to the ‘one minute silence’ v Istanbul Basaksehir, it was literally two people out of a near full-house who shouted “f*** the Queen”. That then prompted a furious reaction from pro-monarchist Hearts fans (which in turn derailed anything resembling a ‘silence’).

The monarchy is a decisive issue in Scotland. I don’t think it’s possible to trust that many people to remain completely silent at a football match, rightly or wrongly.

From match going fans it was being told what to do that some found politicised.
The big majority showed respect.
Obviously the Arabs just wanted to wind up the Rangers fans.

Celtic's strip is too similar to St Mirren's. The team are confused. They're passing to the wrong guys.

Ange has to take the blame for today's defeat along with a few players.

While the SPFL isn't one of the top leagues, it still has professionals who are desperate to win and give 100%. If your team isn't totally up for it you could find yourself struggling, as Celtic did today.

In my opinion, Ange disrespected St Mirren by making 6 changes to the team and we got what we deserved out of the game, nothing.
