“That’s just a complete lie” – Rangers v Hearts conspiracy nonsense shut down

“That’s just a complete lie” – Rangers v Hearts conspiracy nonsense shut down

When is it not a conspiracy? When a Celtic fan makes up gibberish after watching Rangers maintain their two-point lead at the top of the table.

Many of them would have expected us to drop points against a Hearts team in good form, only for Gers manager Philippe Clement to orchestrate the season’s best domestic performance.

However, we won so comfortably not because Rangers played brilliantly, but because they altered formation to make things easier for us, as Hearts TV’s commentator made amusingly clear.

Was Rangers’ crushing victory over Hearts a conspiracy?

Hearts’ record versus Rangers isn’t excellent given their status as the country’s third best team, but it’s even  worse against Celtic – a point that they always neglect to mention.

Prior to Saturday, Rangers had only beaten Hearts by the odd goal and needed two injury time winners the last time the two sides met at Ibrox.

Again, something they fail to disclose.

One Celtic supporter said on X, in reaction to a big story about Hearts lying down to Rangers on a Celtic blog, that there was something evil going on.

“I watched 5 minutes of the Hearts TV stream, and their own commentary team said, “The manager has completely changed the shape, and I’m not sure why.” Take that as you will.”

Laurie Dunsire, the Hearts TV pundit, quickly responded:

“Well, that’s just a complete lie.”

Further down the thread, after being called out, the Celtic fan retracts and even apologizes for the accusation.

Why let a falsehood get in the way of a good story, or conspiracy, and all that.

Prior to Hearts latest success at Parkhead, their record was played 24, lost 23, drawn one at Celtic’s home field.

But is it a conspiracy because we defeated them at Ibrox?

That’s almost as terrible as stating the SFA and SPFL are against you after you have won (or were given) every trophy during a four-year period.

The actual problem is, they can’t accept that we are a decent squad now.

Pure and simple, and long may it continue.
