James Hill has apologised to Hearts fans for reacting to flak directed at the team after Saturday’s 3-0 thumping at Aberdeen.
The Jambos sold out their 1800 allocation at Pittodrie and supporters vented towards Robbie Neilson’s players at the full time whistle of a third defeat on the spin. On-loan Bournemouth defender Hill got caught up in a confrontation after the Scottish Premiership clash as he responded to some of the criticism.
But Hill has moved to explain his reaction on Instagram saying: "I just want to apologise to the Hearts supporters for my reaction after the full time whistle on Saturday. Like you, I was angry and frustrated with the result. As I went to thank the fans at full time, a supporter repeatedly shouted at me to get back down to Bournemouth and obviously that hurt me as I've never given anything less than 100 per cent in a Hearts shirt.
