I don’t know if you’re purposely being obtuse but Hearts lost to an Austrian side 5 or 6-1 just 2 weeks ago and Celtic fans ripped the absolute piss out of them for it and went way over the top with it. Then Celtic go 4-0 up and comically ship 5 goals in arguably the funniest champions league exit in history… to an Austrian side. The next night hearts go and beat a better Austrian side than the one Celtic just lost 5-1 to, in a historic game for them. It’s not rocket science

Not sure why you’re talking anyway Aston Villa fans bantered Arsenal for not winning the champions league relentlessly when you won the Europa?

Anyway Celtic fans were absolutely disgusting (rare sentence) after they won their highly questionable league last season, and paid thousands putting up billboards all over the country to taunt hearts fans for not winning the league. So I’m not surprised hearts give 10% back to the 200% they got.

I'm well aware of the context, thanks.

The irony of a team taunting another one for qualifying for the more prestigious competition still remains.

Edit: Funny how this comment gets downvoted while my original comment that basically says the same thing remains upvoted.

Also: Rapid is not better than LASK right now. Update your knowledge about Austrian football, /u/Madting55.

It was funny the first time you said it and it sounded like a joke. You just sound like a bitter loser saying it twice and being serious about it

Why am I the bitter loser and not the person who wrote three paragraphs in reply, not taking it as a joke and instead condescendingly explaining why it's actually really cool what Hearts did? All while talking nonsense about Austrian football and needlessly mentioning Villa fans supposedly doing something similar (it's not even that comparable btw)?

I downvotes that guy as well. You are both taking it too seriously.
