SPFL Hearts v Celtic Saturday November 23rd kick off 7:45PM Sky sports football

Steven McLean will referee Saturday’s match between Hearts and Celtic at Tynecastle


Despite being a familiar face in the top flight, Saturday’s match will just be McLean’s fourth Premiership match of the season, for some reason he never took charge of a fixture until October 5.

The evening kick-off will be shown live on Sky Sports with the fixture generally one of the most heated in the SPFL Premiership

Celtic have suffered only one domestic defeat this season, back in March away to Hearts in a match dripping with controversy.

Don Robertson sent off Yang Hyun-jun early in the match then awarded Hearts a penalty with both decisions prompted by John Beaton on VAR.

After the match Brendan Rodgers described Beaton as incompetent, an action that led to a one match touchline ban.


Greg Aitken will be on VAR duty on Saturday, in the opening fixture of the season the SFA announced that he had wrongly denied Celtic a penalty following an foul on Kyogo Furuhashi by Robbie McCrorie

 

As it stands, the wather forecast for the game looks utterly * :/

 

A * off, just realized the KO time!
Wait 2 weeks for the * internationals to finish so we can watch the Celtic, then see that we’re playing at 5am on a Sunday morning here!

 

Can you spot the error?

 

We've no had man sent off yet

 

I fully expect the same levels of cheating

 

I don’t ever remember a game this late on Saturday night before(not that I’m complaining) just seems so random.

 

Could see it being called off with rain all day then freezing temps at night. Plus who wants to play on a Saturday night

 

Snow coming to Edinburgh in the next couple of days


Had the heating on all day

 

You’re a richer man than me mate

 

Na I spend my money now on alcohol

 

Hahaha brilliant. No heating needed then

 

Got nothing else to spend my money on now mate


Not been working since my hernia operation so money goes on 6 sets of beer

 

If we bring our A game,then its a canter.
4 nil Celtic

 

Can anybody point me in the right direction trying to get 2 tickets for the hibs game on the 7th Dec official website saying sold out

 

We are getting the first snow of the year here in Chicago right now. 6-8cm coming down as I type.

 

This feels like a big banana skin.

We seem to start slow after these international breaks, weather likely to be freezing, hearts are pretty inconsistent but expect Shankland to be up for it against us.

Definitely tricky but usually more fun games than killie away.

 

Good win against these scumbags would be a great birthday present.
