Vlad's 'fix' claims just unbelievableCLAIMS by Hearts owner Vladimir Romanov that a game with Celtic at Parkhead last season could have been fixed have been dismissed as absurd. Former chairman George Foulkes said the Hearts owner was unhappy with the 1-1 draw last season. "The genesis of the concern Romanov had was after the 1-1 draw at Celtic Park in October," said Foulkes, in a documentary - Romanov: King of Hearts - to be shown on BBC 2 tonight. "Romanov was convinced the result had somehow been contrived and was suspicious. But it was just so fantastic and unbelievable. "He was fuming about it because he believed the match had been fixed." Romanov declined an offer to comment on what Foulkes said. With Hearts top of the SPL, manager George Burley parted company with the Edinburgh club just seven days after the draw at Celtic Park. |
