Although a backdrop of 60,000 fans would have been better the 1,200 Celtic supporters inside Tynecastle on Sunday weren’t short on passion or commitment.
After the final whistle most of the players were given the chance to hear their own chant or song with one standing out more than most.
The combination of Patrick Kielty on BBC 5 Live and Celtic fans on social media kicked off an unlikely chain of events.

Jota On The Wing has been on the go since the end of last season but when Ellie Dixon picked up on it the song went viral.
Over the course of six weeks various artists added their own version which led to Dixon singing live at Celtic Park before the Superstar from Portugal scored the winning goal in the April 8 Glasgow Derby.
The song was back in the hands of the hardcore on Sunday with the main man clearly appreciative of the backing he receives.
