The best thing Sammy did today was delaying the penalty, the longer between an award and a penalty being taken the more likely a miss or save. I read that somewhere once.
If the ball wasn’t placed correctly then Sammi was correct – remind me , what did Murray do ?
In saying that , I thought Murray exemplified the very thing we are up against. While mibbery can affect the game , it will. Solution? Score 3 goals in first 10 minutes – then you take them out of the equation.

I couldnt make the game today so having just watched the penalty incident, Sammi, quite rightly points out tothe ref that the ball is not on the spot, he then walks away.
Just how that constitutes “disgraceful” behavior is beyond me

I enjoyed that game and would love to see this penalty again but I have a dilemma! Got an empty house, now should I watch Real V Barca or go down the pub and wind up the Hertz fans

My big worry for the new year is we will lose Wanyama for 5 or 6 weeks with the African Cup of Nations in January.
Completely agree. He is the fulcrum, just now.
Thankfully for us Kenya did not qualify for the 2012 ACN so Victor will be here doing his bit for team Neil!!

still cant fathom out whether it was for hand ball or a foul.

Sorry to hear about your experience today. Totally disgraceful. I hope the guy is found and banned for life.
As for Sammi’s gamesmanship, I don’t think it was gamesmanship. He was correctly pointing out the ball wasn’t on the spot. Nothing wrong with that at all. In fact, if anything, it was the refs lack of willingnes to have the ball spotted properly that was the biggest contributor to the delay. The penalty taker eventually spots it.
AND!!!! Having said all that, it took NOTHING away from the strike, which was a good one. FF’s save was superb. Take nothiong away from that!!!!! :)))))))
Come on your CELTS!!!!!! :)
Victor Wanyama. What can you say. Magic!!!! :)))))

i have just watched the penalty incident. it is very difficult to see exactly what happened but that is not the point. the point is that the referee gave the decision against celtic. if that had been rangers against hearts at ibrox and rangers were ahead by one goal there is no way on god’s good earth that the referee would have given a penalty. we all know what is going down in scottish football.
the more things change the more things stay the same.
the referee doesnt signal or whistle for the penalty until the Hearts players who arent as well sighted as he is scream for a penalty.
Huge result today. We can build a team round Victor. What a player.

Praise to big Fraser for a great save.
Haven’t been his greatest fan but that save
could be vital.
67Heaven ... I am Neil Lennon..!! Tick Tock !! on
In from the game, fed and watered, and now for the Barca game……..thought some of our players (in the first half) were thinking about Thursday, but we still dominated a good game….Hearts actually play quite well when playing against a good footballing team like us…….enjoyed the game, and never thought they looked like scoring…..started to wonder if it was going to be another one of those days……..left early, to miss the traffic, so missed the penalty, but saw it on Sky Sports……….what a save…!!!!!……Fraser is a great shot stopper……!!!…..I have always had confidence in his ability…….
I was appaplectic with laughter listening to radio snyde going appaplectic with panic and anxiety when their favoured team were playing shoite in the first half at Easter Road (does that hail from (Easter (Monday) Road….!!!!……..they really are a shower of FUDS……LOL….!!!
Some crowd today, and the GB..?……FANtastic, as were the test of the crowd also……

They will work out what the penalty was for once they have seen the replay several times. :)
I really hope we were smart enough to send sopme one along to the refs room after the game to have the offical reason the penalty was given, before they got the chance to do the above.
Sammy is a clever player. He has limitations as a striker, but not as a team player.
Hope they find the idiot who attacked you and ban him from Celtic Park, and the law deals with him as well.

not sure about the rules but the ball was off the center of the penalty spot and Sammi pointed it out – the Hearts players were time wasting all afternoon.. VICTORy is sweet..

I’ve always thought that big Foster looks nervous and lacks confidence.
Maybe today will give the bhoy a much needed boost. His team mates couldn’t have been more pleased for him.

Celtic will need to have games out of site and dont give the mibs a chance to sneek in a last min penalty for a draw or a win God help us!!!

The long wait is over……I was VERY disappointed today when the crowd got on Wanyama’s back because of a couple of wayward passes early on……what is that all about….we’re supposed to be supporting the team……fortunately he got his confidence back pretty quickly, but that’s ‘not on’……totally counter-productive…!!!

Great result.

Great save from FF, and a cracking goal.
Keep the pressure on them.
Palacio,
I would guess his age at about 35-40.
Totally unprovoked, I was smiling as I spoke to him.

Big Vic reminds me so much of wee Murdo in the early 80s after Murdo came back from a long injury, season 82/83.
Notthebus,i only ever listen to phone ins if i am in the car,but you are spot on about Mccall,
he makes little effort to hide his dislike of our club
Holy goalie just kicking off on ESPN
Victor was superb today.
Played first half in midfield, moved to centre back
and scores a spectacular winner.
The last player i saw with that amount of
versality was Chris Sutton.
This lad is quality.

Must agree about Sammi’s agitation of the penalty taker,
Good gamesmanship that had me hoping against hope…
( I’ve never fully understood just what that meant.)
well done victor
not had a bad game in the hoops so far
IMO this bhoy is going to be the biggest star on our books
hail hail
jhilday , absolutely disgraceful.
I hope they can track it . maybe even cctv.
if i was you i wouldn’t let it drop – people like that don’t deserve to be at Celtic Park – “those evil eyes….”

I’m sure someone posted a while back that Victor wouldn’t be going to the ACN.

If it was ‘disgraceful’ then why was the Hearts player made to put the ball on the spot by the referee, after Samaras merely pointed out that
it wasn’t spotted properly?
The answer would be the same, – McCall is bitter.
Sannabhoy,
The ticket he used must have been scanned shortly before mine was.
I’ll try to contact Celtic tomorrow.
Take my pathetically-burst lip for an early night I think.
notthebus ,
it’s very simple.
If the ball wasn’t placed correctly then Sammi was correct – remind me , what did Murray do ?
