Cammy Devlin was too disappointed in himself to listen to Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s touchline advice after his red card against Rangers.
The Hearts midfielder was sent off after a reckless challenge on Rabbi Matondo right in front of the technical area. Amidst the chaos, the TV cameras captured the Ibrox boss having a word with Devlin, as the challenge cost Hearts in as they collapsed to a 4-0 defeat at Tynecastle.
Van Bronckhorst later used his post match interview that his touchline talk with Devlin was to offer advice rather than tell off the player as he revealed he was a fan of the Hearts battler. Devlin, who is set to miss tomorrow’s Premiership clash against Kilmarnock, has acknowledged those positive comments from the World Cup Finalist. He said: "He (Van Bronckhorst) just said I don’t need to do that in my game. At the time I was just so heated and disappointed that I wasn’t fully listening.
