Same here. I've never followed it. This season, first time. That said, I'm not sure that Rangers and Celtic will feel they need a break.

Every neutral surely rooting for Hearts (jambos, aren't they? is that what they're called?). I actually wonder if — very, very secretly — a few Hibs fans aren't rooting for them today. We can particularly root for them in that West Ham and we are the victims of a disgusting VAR decision, basically handing the title to Arsenal — as the title has been very nearly handed to Celtic by an equally disgusting VAR decision.
You do wonder if VAR isn't the supreme manipulation machine…

A Hibs fan I know isn't...

Would you be saying that if you weren't already out of it?

I knew someone would say that

I messaged both Hearts posters congratulating them recently and at that point Rangers still had an outside chance of winning the league. I told them it’d be a travesty if they didn’t win it

No. They would have played this fixture earlier post split.

The team top of the league at split gets last game at home!

Until the last time it happened, because it's not a rule, and Celtic played away from home on the last occasion.

But sure you crack on, fella

I saw a video of hibs fans celebrating when Celtic scored last minute the other day.
They definitely don't want hearts to win

Not all OF fans. It’d be great for our game but more importantly I hope they continue improving and make it a three horse race for years to come.

Fair point. I should have said, the majority. Not fair to tar all of them with the same brush. But be fair and honest; how many Celtic fans today would be happy to see Hearts prevail? Or Rangers fans, if you were in Celtic's position. I have no evidence, obviously. But my guess would that it's a small minority in either club's case. Credit to you, by the way, for your comment. Which I agree with. Scottish football can only benefit from having a regular third contender.

Oh sure, no question. As I say, I'm just wondering. And if would be very secret. And it would be very few.
But after all, this is, among other things, the city of Edinburgh against the city of Glasgow, isn't it?

Andy Murray, a Hibs fan, has said he would like Hearts to win it

Could also do with our Sheepy pals stepping up.

In my lifetime the best period for Scottish football was late 70s through to late 80s with a strong Aberdeen, United and Hearts competing with a decent Celtic. Rangers often flattered to deceive and were regularly 4th of 5th pre Souness arrival. A strong league benefits everybody

I have to say if we were in Celtics position I’d obviously want Rangers to win. I’ve not mellowed that much lol

Imagine us wanting the rags to win the league .
To stop arsenal or spurs if they had
dominated for 30 years.

Not one single person would want them to win
