Well done Hearts

Even though they have just destroyed my own teams chances of getting into the UEFA cup I can't help but be pleased for the hearts. It's great to see one of the non-old firm clubs get a bit of success.

It'll be Aberdeens turn next season :D

WELL DONE THE JAMBOS!!!

We're going no where :p
It's the same every season, we play well towards the end of the season to build our hopes for next year but then we keep drawing instead of winning :mad:

Anyway, I'm always optimistic during every closed season...suicidal by xmas and then frustrated at the end. It's the annual cycle of the Aberdeen fan. :)

I feel worse for my mates who are Dundee United fans, despite years of mediocrity they still have this unshakeable belief at the start of the season which no amount of harsh reality seems to dispel.

I'm really chuffed that Hearts will see some Champions League football, I just hope that we don't embarrass ourselves(probably by changing managers at half time :o).
 
Well done Hearts, given the rollercoaster ride of a season in addition to all the turmoil off the park it's a fantastic achievement to finally split the old firm.

I'm sure a lot of Celtic fans will be celebrating as well - mean's Le Guen may have lost a bit of leverage (i.e. the attraction of champions league football) when trying to sign players from abroad.

And credit to Gretna, they'll be in the UEFA cup now :)
 
Would agree well done Hearts they did deserve it, pity they couldn't hold it together to win the league.

And as a Rangers fan I'm worried for next season, the lack of Cash from CL not sure how the UEFA Cup Compares cash wise, and as stated can't attract the big names with CL Football especially after us getting through to the knock out phases this season. At least we can concentrate on the League next season, but with a French Manager :eek:
 
I have to agree! Away the Jambo's!!!!

I'm sick of the gloryhunting old firm supporters thinking it's their god given right(how can I write that for Rangers??) to be first or second. The fact they've been bleeting on about how the Scottish cup has been the worst for decades (wonder if it was because they were out in January??) just shows them for the gloryhunters they are. They can't be happy for any other teams!

Unfortunately for me I'm an Arab and am in dire straits at the moment. I want big brewster to succeed but it's looking a hard job.

Maybe this year we won't be optimistic and finally accept our bottom 6 position!

I'm sure your lot will do better next season, however there's a real chance you'll finish in 11th (if we beat Livi and you lose to Motherwell ;) )

Scary stuff
 
I'm delighted for Hearts, they thoroughly deserve 2nd place and if it wasn't for Romanovs meddling, they would have stayed in the title chase for much longer. I've got a few Jambo mates so I'll be backing Gretna in the final, I hope they don't freeze.

I've got a load of mates who support Dundee Utd because they were the top team when they got into football. So you can take you gloryhunter remark and ram it.

Well done to Hearts, its a good to see a 3rd Scottish team get into the CL.

Does this mean Le Guen has a year to build up a stronger squad without the extra games in europe to worry about?

What's the cost implications of CL football? It must be some £10m from the group stages alone?

I think second place team in the SPL has to go through the qualifying stages to reach the group stages

Yep, although I've heard unconfirmed rumours that due to the messed up ranking system and the situation in England Celtic may also have to go through the qualifying stages or at least some of them which I don't think it right at all.

Champions League income is usually given at ~£10 million for group stages so from what I remember you are right :) Rangers did make it further than normal this year though so in theory at least will have some extra funds due to that which might help offset not getting in this year.
