The Scottish FA plans to investigate the chaotic scenes in the tunnel at Hamilton's New Douglas Park where three players received red cards.

Referee David Somers sent off Hearts captain Michael Stewart and team-mate Ismael Bouzid during the game.

Then Hearts pair Suso Santana and Ian Black, and Hamilton's Leon Knight were red-carded after a melee in the tunnel.

An SFA statement promises "a full investigation into events" that occurred after Hamilton's 2-1 win.

Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo was jostled during the fracas and said afterwards: "I was never involved in a worse finish than this in all my career.

"Even in the tunnel, I came in and I was pushed left and right."

Accies secured maximum points in an ill-tempered encounter but emotions continued to run high as the players and coaching staff on both sides made their way up the tunnel.

Hamilton boss Billy Reid, however, sought to play down the incident.

"I didn't see anything. I was out here, shaking hands with every player as they came off the park," he said.

"I was walking down the tunnel and there was a melee, but that happens so many times.

"I don't have anything to say about that - the most important thing is we took the three points and we deserved it."

Hearts were fined £50,000 in August by the Scottish Football Association for their poor disciplinary record in the 2008/09 campaign, the fifth consecutive season they have been punished.

the referee was terrible,gave hearts nothing,it's the fault of hearts owner romanov an absolute nut job,he has critised the spl,referee's and other clubs over and over,the club has been fined over and over,for this reason is why the team is always being harshly treated by ref's and the players are loseing there head with some of the decisions given against them the last 2 seasons,also they were made sell 12 first team squad players and brought in 6 free transfer player's,the club is in turmoil and the sooner this nutter romanov goes the better.
