Ewen Cameron’s amusing response to Hearts slip-up in Celtic title race

Add as preferred source on Google

This season, Ewen Cameron has established himself as the Jamie O’Hara of Scottish Football.

The well-known radio figure (and very outspoken Hearts fan) has already completed a few victory laps during the club’s surprise title push this season.

But after Hearts lost ground to Celtic in the table on Sunday, we saw a desperate attempt to hide his concern that their lead is shrinking.

And it makes it clear to Hoops fans that his fear is growing after Derek McInnes’ side made it four away games without a win. It’s also simply a good laugh, regardless of who ends up winning the league.

What position would Celtic be in NOW if Brendan Rodgers was still in charge?

Things could've been very different…

Ewen Cameron on Hearts title race after gap closed by Celtic

In a massive post on X, Cameron wrote: “After 32 games in the Scottish Premiership, Hearts are still top of the league…

“But for months we were told it was crumbling every single week.

“We were told in September: ‘You’re just another Aberdeen.’ October: ‘You’ll disappear like Aberdeen’.

“November: ‘Celtic will be 8pts clear in March’. December: ‘Your bubble has burst’. January: ‘Shanks and Devlin are injured, that’s Hearts f—-d’.

“February: ‘Your race is run’ after defeat at Ibrox. March: ‘Your bubble has burst’ after defeat to Killie.’

“Hearts are top of the league with six games to go despite all of you predicting us to disappear months ago.

“We’ve been laughing at you all as we’ve enjoyed a season, like no other, for a generation. To be in this position is remarkable.

“Each week, each month, we’ve proved you all wrong and it has been glorious to watch.”

Is this the worst group of finishers you’ve seen in a Celtic squad?

The only people proven wrong on Sunday were those who thought that Celtic’s season was over after defeat to Dundee United a fortnight ago.

Hearts are now at risk of losing top spot before the split even happens, with Motherwell set to visit Tynecastle in the last fixture before the split.

McInnes is still to take his side to Celtic Park one more time before the end of the campaign.
