Good afternoon and welcome to 2016, and of course the results show. | :00:18. | :00:27. | |
Happy New Year. Time to meet and greet former Hibs, Rangers and | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
Motherwell defender, Craig Paterson and Richard Wilson. It is Derby Day. | :00:35. | :00:41. | |
Let's find out what is happening from our reporters around the | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
country. First up is a derby of the Glasgow variety, Celtic against | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
Partick Thistle. Happy New Year to everyone. It has not been a typical | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
derby, but Neil Bainton has just been sent off. They are struggling | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
to break down Partick Thistle. They are being held goalless here by an | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
inform Partick Thistle. Kilmarnock against Hearts, Kenny what is | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
happening? After 72 minutes it is 2-1. Early promise and composure. | :01:19. | :01:27. | |
But Kilmarnock have been leaking goals. Reilly and Kevin Patterson. | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
Let's head to the Highlands, Inverness against Ross County. | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
Inverness Caledonian Thistle are winning 2-0. The home side are in | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
control. The second goal was a curling free kick and found the far | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
corner. County struggling to break Inverness down. Motherwell against | :01:55. | :02:04. | |
Hamilton. What again we have, 3-2. Scott Mac Donald gave Motherwell the | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
lead after nine minutes. But Lewis McKinnon had the visitors level. | :02:12. | :02:23. | |
Time to find out who is on top of the championship match between | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
Dumbarton and Rangers. Shaping up as a happy New Year for Rangers. It | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
started off well for Kenny Miller with a hat-trick late in the first | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
half and a couple of second-half goals for him. Michael were corn has | :02:35. | :02:42. | |
scored his 22nd of the season. A few other scores in the championship. | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
Hibs are 1-0 up to Raith Rovers. Queen of the South leading | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
Livingston 2-0. St Mirren 1-0 up a way to Morton. Happy New Year, | :02:55. | :03:04. | |
gentlemen. The news from Celtic Park ex-macro goalless against Partick | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Thistle and down to ten men. I didn't foresee that? No, Partick | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
Thistle are on a really good run. Clean sheets going into this game. | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
They went to Aberdeen high confidence and their record against | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
Celtic is less spectacular. I did expect Celtic to move on. They have | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
gone two games without a win before today. Celtic need to put their foot | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
on the gas. I thought they would do it today but Partick Thistle are | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
tough. Celtic fans will not be happy? They have become an | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
inconsistent team. It wasn't that long that Dalmarnock was holding | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
them goalless. They are not firing on all cylinders but they are still | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
the top scorers in the league. They have the best defensive record in | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
the league. It is hard to know what to make of Celtic at the moment. It | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
is not right, but they are picking up points and dominating the league. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
It is hard to judge if you are a Celtic fan. But you get the sense | :04:10. | :04:18. | |
all is not right in the team. 3-2 to Motherwell. Motherwell deserved to | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
be on top? They started well. At these came back. I was at both games | :04:25. | :04:33. | |
last year and it is a game that produces goals. Motherwell are on a | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
really good one. Hamilton are struggling. They would love to get a | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
point but if Mark McGhee can chalk up another victory it will put | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
Motherwell in a good place to challenge for the top six. Hearts | :04:48. | :04:57. | |
are a strong team, strong character and they are physically strong. | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
Kilmarnock have not been able to hold onto the lead. They have been | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
inconsistent as well. Enough of the manager to say he is concerned about | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
where they are. They have to be picking up points and separate | :05:15. | :05:16. | |
yourself from Dundee United at the bottom. It will be a bloke the | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
Kilmarnock to go ahead in this game and then not take any points from | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
it. Looking good the Cali Thistle, 2-0 up and Inverness have found some | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
form? Warren is back, Draper is back. Maehl story was scoring goals, | :05:32. | :05:41. | |
but other players are scoring. The problem was they couldn't score | :05:42. | :05:43. | |
goals and couldn't win, now they have guys on form and they are | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
building up the points. I had said to Craig before, talking about the | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
Dumbarton, Rangers game, nobody gives Dumbarton a real thrashing, | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
apart from Falkirk. Rangers, 4-0 up a way to Dumbarton? They seem to be | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
picking up from where they left when they played Hibs. They are capable | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
of heavily defeating teams. Just not consistently. Kenny Miller is | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
providing good service upfront and Martyn Waghorn is chipping in with | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
goals. They have had the little fright, Hibs caught up with them. | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
Now they have won a few, can be pushed on again? It looks for Hibs | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
fans watching, it could be a nervous ending, 1-0 up at home to Raith | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
Rovers? Yes, Falkirk last minute goal, they are unbeaten at home and | :06:40. | :06:47. | |
they got ahead and got a penalty. It was said, it came back to Jason | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
Cummins who scored up a second time of asking. Rangers will not give | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
much away, Falkirk will not give much away, they have got to win | :06:56. | :07:03. | |
games like this. There has been a tendency to focus on Rangers and | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
Hibs and forget about Falkirk. Peter Houston might have been happy about | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
that. The one thing that holds them back is the depth of the squad. But | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
if they can put teams at the top under pressure, they can take points | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
off them, so they cannot be written out. The Dundee derby is done and | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
dusted and described by John Barnes. This is a dramatic derby to start | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
dusted and described by John Barnes. the New Year. Dundee coming from | :07:30. | :07:30. | |
behind to win the New Year. Dundee coming from | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
captain to a serious injury early on. United went in front, but | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
Hemmings claimed his sixth goal in three games to level just before | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
half-time. The winner came from Nick Ross, his first goal for the club. | :07:47. | :07:54. | |
His shot took a wicked deflection. United had a player sent off and | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
that infuriated the manager. But the bragging rights in the city with | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
Dundee, as bragging rights in the city with | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
second win over United in 13 meetings. But for the Tannadice | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
side, the battle to avoid the drop has just got harder. Post Mac | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
reaction later. -- post-match. It is has just got harder. Post Mac | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
now 2-2. The man who has just got harder. Post Mac | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
equaliser is Josh McGuinness. His 19th goal of the season. It | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
equaliser is Josh McGuinness. His Kilmarnock level. They had the early | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
lead, it was Conrad alla Tony Hill put them in front. But Gavin Reilly | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
had equalised the Hearts. Then a brilliant volley by Callum Paterson | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
put Hearts 2-1 up. But that is the equaliser. Just a quick update from | :08:51. | :08:58. | |
Dumbarton. Rangers 5-0 up. Halladay the scorer. As promised, let's get | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
post-match reaction from the Dundee derby this afternoon. We will hear | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
from Paul Hartley, the Dundee manager. He spoke to Scott Davie. It | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
wasn't a pretty game. It was hard-fought, the pitch was heavy. | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
But they showed desire and character of spirit today. I am pleased with | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
that. When you lose your captain under such circumstances, how it is | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
James? We feel for him and we hope it is not too bad. The early signs | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
is, he is on the way to hospital. It was a real blow. Only one team that | :09:35. | :09:43. | |
played today, it was us. I give the players the credit, how they | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
prepared for the match, how we started and took the lead. We | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
carried on from there. Not enough, it has been a few weeks now, six | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
matches where we have taken the lead and then lost. So it can happen. | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
Silly goals as well. Stupid. It is quality, confident. We must hope | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
them out. Six goals in the last three games now for Dundee, | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
everything is coming right for you at the moment? Yes, hit a good patch | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
at the moment. Delighted with the goals, but today, in the Derby and | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
making sure we get the win was important. An important way to come | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
back in because Dundee United started the game well. But you to | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
snap that opportunity swung the match in Dundee's favour? Yes, we | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
have created much before that. It was important to take the | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
opportunity and get in at half-time, regroup and then fight for it in the | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
second half. Delighted. I don't think we are unlucky every match, | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
you create your own good luck by working hard in those situations. | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
Both offensively and defensively. It is making sure we are confident and | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
create the goal-scoring opportunities, like today. Many of | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
them should have been home and dry at half-time. They said it wasn't | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
pretty but I don't think Dundee fans will be bothered about that? A lot | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
of doors, but you have got to pick up three points if you want to move | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
into the top half of the table. It is one of those games where Dundee | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
United dominated early. It was a wonderful Krkic, but defensive | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
frailties again. New goalkeeper as well? The equaliser, he tried to | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
punch it and punched it straight to Hemmings. A bit of controversy. The | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
free kick which led to the winner, makes you feel it should have been | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
given to Dundee United. But Nick Ross, his shot would not be the | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
goalkeeper. But that is the type of luck you get. And they said only one | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
team played football, do you agree with that analysis? There wasn't a | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
great deal of quality in the game. It was windy, it was wet and the | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
pitch was heavy. An occasion of grit and determination and fighting. But | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
they are running out of ways to talk about the frailties at the back. | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
They cannot stop conceding goals and that will keep them at the bottom | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
and be the comeuppance. Said Johnston, playing tomorrow in Perth. | :12:29. | :12:35. | |
The Christmas period hasn't been great for either side, St Johnstone | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
losing their last match at Motherwell. And away defeat, | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
arresting for St Johnstone. Motherwell have great form. They | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
need to work on their salvation. Standing there, doing nothing, it | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
reminds me of players at Motherwell. It was important for Motherwell to | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
keep that going this was the icing on the cake. Stephen Pearson gets a | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
reward for persistence when the ball comes back. He finds the back of the | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
net. You look at St Johnstone, look at the results sequence they have | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
had, it doesn't look that good, no wins in three, but some tough | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
fixtures. They played Celtic and Hearts, and Aberdeen. I am wondering | :13:22. | :13:29. | |
what Craig Paterson's celebration would have been back in the day. | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
This season the defence has been weaker. They are still third, fourth | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
and fifth and fighting around the area. I think Tommy Wright will be | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
confident his team can put in a performance against Aberdeen. You | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
mention Aberdeen, they have had the chance and they could have been four | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
points clear at the top. They are level with Celtic. This was against | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
Partick Thistle in midweek. They failed to score, had plenty of | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
chances. Some people may say they have blown it a bit last | :14:02. | :14:23. | |
But credit Partick Thistle for defending really well. They showed | :14:24. | :14:32. | |
tremendous character to get back into the game. The group | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
it is a big game for both sides. Aberdeen, having clambered back into | :14:41. | :14:50. | |
the title race, they need to start sticking three points on the board | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
regularly. I can tell you rangers are now 6-0 up away at Dumbarton. | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
Let's tell you how Celtic are faring at home to Partick Thistle. Still | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
0-0. Celtic fans are beginning to get up and go, they have seen | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
enough. Their team are heading for a fifth game in a row without a | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
victory here at Celtic Park. They haven't deserved much more than they | :15:16. | :15:23. | |
going to get here, which is a point, after Nir Bitton was sent off. James | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
Forrest and Leigh Griffiths, both on substitutes, have had a couple of | :15:29. | :15:37. | |
efforts each saved by Cerny. At the other end, a header saved off the | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
line. About 90 seconds of the 90 left and Celtic heading for another | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
game without a win at Celtic Park. Also all square at Rugby Park. Kenny | :15:50. | :15:57. | |
Crawford can update us. It is still Kilmarnock 2-2 hearts. | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
2016 might be a bit better for Kilmarnock. Their fans starting to | :16:03. | :16:10. | |
get out from behind the couch. Kilmarnock have played well today | :16:11. | :16:12. | |
especially in the first half. They were composed, they had Stevie Smith | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
in the Beeb lying midfield role instead of his normal right back | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
role and I think his experience helped bring other people into play. | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
Josh Magennis headed in an equaliser to make it 2-2 and there are about | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
three minutes of normal time left here. Martin is watching the | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
Highland derby, Inverness against Ross County. Ross County trying to | :16:35. | :16:41. | |
knock on the door by just lacking a bit of quality in the final third. | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
No Liam Boyd today, he has a hamstring injury. They can't create | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
anything to trouble this Inverness defence. They have had chances | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
themselves. A great chance tipped onto the bar. It has been a fairly | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
miserable afternoon overall for Ross County. Back to Celtic Park, there | :17:03. | :17:10. | |
has been a goal in that match. Let's find out all about it. Leigh | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
Griffiths in the final minute comes off the bench to provide the spark | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
that Celtic are required. It looks very much like he has given his side | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
to victory. There was a stroke of fortune about the goal. A wicked | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
deflection right into the path of Leigh Griffiths. Coolly side footed | :17:30. | :17:38. | |
past Thomas Cerny. It looks very much as if Celtic are heading for a | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
first win in five here at Celtic Park. Heading to further Park now, | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
the Lanarkshire derby well under way. It is five additional minutes | :17:49. | :17:57. | |
here, still Motherwell 3-2 Hamilton. Those dudes to a nasty injury for | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
Hamilton. The goal-scorer had to be carried off. Some cracking goals in | :18:04. | :18:15. | |
this. Three minutes left, Motherwell 3-2. I wasn't going to bother | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
watching tomorrow night but I will now! Full-time in the Renfrewshire | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
derby. Tell us what happened. A massive windfalls and Mirren. They | :18:30. | :18:30. | |
snatched this 11-0. -- they scratched this one -- they | :18:31. | :18:43. | |
snatched this one, 1-0. It was Shankland who knocked it over the | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
line. All too much for him! But we got the details. When news of that | :18:49. | :18:58. | |
Celtic golf filtered through to us, before we knew it you said Leigh | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
Griffiths has scored, didn't you! We were thinking if you need someone to | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
get the ball in the back of the net at an important time, you want the | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
chance to fall to Leigh Griffiths. Big players produce on big occasions | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
and Celtic desperately needed that win. They were down to ten men. I | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
thought it was time for him to step up and do his stuff. Plenty of | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
Rangers players produced this afternoon, a big win for them away | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
to Dumbarton. Six of the best to see in the New Year for Rangers. It took | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
them to within three minutes of half-time to get themselves ahead | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
after Dumbarton's resistant and Rangers's inability to get that | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
breakthrough. Kenny Miller opened the scoring for them just before the | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
break and quickly added a second and then completed a hat-trick within | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
four deck and half minutes. He needed those goals, Kenny Miller. A | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
hat-trick for him today. Followed by Martyn Waghorn scoring his 22nd of | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
the season, a deflected free kick from Andy Halliday made it five and | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
a ripper of a 25 yarder from James Tavernier, clearly peeved that Kenny | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
Miller had gone level with him on goals, decided to edge himself ahead | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
with the full-back's number 11. Heading back to Celtic now, full | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
time there. Yes indeed, 1-0. The champions and league leaders move | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
three points clear of Aberdeen at the top thanks to that Leigh | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
Griffiths goal, delayed, late goal from Leigh Griffiths. He came off | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
the bench at half-time. Celtic looked desperately in need of a | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
spark. They were lacklustre until the sending-off of Nir Bitton. That | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
seemed to give them something of an edge, they had a late flurry of | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
chances. A couple from James Forrest and a couple from Leigh Griffiths. | :20:54. | :21:04. | |
Thomas Cerny stood firm. Leigh Griffiths showed his work to the | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
team -- his worth to the team and what they have been missing since he | :21:09. | :21:15. | |
has been out. It is tough on Partick Thistle, who looked destined for a | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
seven match unbeaten, but Celtic break the four-game run without a | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
win. They have done it, 1-0 they win today. A dramatic finish at the Park | :21:27. | :21:40. | |
-- Fir Park. We have an equaliser and it has come from the penalty | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
spot. Crawford sending the goalkeeper the wrong way. The shot | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
came in and Keith Leslie had his hand up, the shop certainly struck | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
his arm. The referee was surrounded by the Motherwell defenders claiming | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
it was accidental. However, the referee pointed to the spot and | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
we're now just going to kick off the game and surely that is it all over | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
here at Fir Park. It is now 3-3. Not quite finished there but it is in | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
the Highlands, Inverness against Ross County. Full-time, 2-0. The | :22:15. | :22:25. | |
first half strikes easing Inverness back into the top six. Their upturn | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
in form continues. The opener had a touch of fortune when James Vince | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
and's shop was firm but not overly troubling until the quick reaction | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
of the defender deflected the ball into the corner. Davis went close | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
with the corner but they were not the game that he just before | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
half-time. It sailed perfectly into the far corner. It was nearly three | :22:52. | :22:59. | |
when story had a firm drive which was tipped onto the bar. It mattered | :23:00. | :23:06. | |
not with Inverness showing the sort of form that delivered don't last. | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
Let's hear from Kenny Crawford now it's all over at Rugby Park. | :23:14. | :23:24. | |
Full-time and a vital point earned by a Kilmarnock side showing great | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
resolve to start off the year well. It started through Conrad Balatoni. | :23:30. | :23:38. | |
But Gavin Reilly immediately pegged them back, he was on hand to tap in | :23:39. | :23:48. | |
a rebound. It was 1-1 after the break but then Calum Paterson gave | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
Hearts the lead in fantastic style. The rebound went leaping out of the | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
head of the box and Calum Paterson chested it and set himself up and | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
volleyed it into the corner. He celebrated in front of the Hearts | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
travelling support. We wondered whether Killy would have the resolve | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
and strength to fight back but they did. Meg Ennis heading in from a | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
corner. Three times Hearts have come here in the league and failed to win | :24:18. | :24:36. | |
and they have done so again. At Fir Park, Motherwell and Hamilton shared | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
a 3-3 draw. McDonald gave the home side a deserved lead but Hamilton | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
came strong, first through their defender glancing a header beyond | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
Connor Randall lead to draw Hamilton level after 25 minutes. Then a quite | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
magnificent strike from Darian MacKinnon gave Hamilton the lead | :24:55. | :25:02. | |
just before the break. McDonald was on hand to knock the ball home after | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
he was set up by Lewis, who then put them in front. Eight Ross in from | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
the right hand side and Moult with the goal. Drama as five minutes of | :25:16. | :25:24. | |
time added on and substitute Ali Crawford with the shot and the ball | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
came off the hand or the arm of Keith Leslie and the referee was on | :25:30. | :25:38. | |
hand, he pointed to the spot. Keith Leslie saw red. Somehow it finished | :25:39. | :25:46. | |
3-3. Into the Championship now, let's find out what happened in the | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
match between Hibernian and Raith Rovers. It finished 1-0, meaning | :25:50. | :25:57. | |
Hibs go back to second place in the Championship, taking all three | :25:58. | :26:09. | |
points today. Hibs had little in the way of chances in the first half, | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
only real one coming from a shop come cross from Lewis Stevenson but | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
that was kept out by the crossbar. In the second-half Hibs came out of | :26:21. | :26:23. | |
traps being and were given a penalty after eight minutes. The spot kick | :26:24. | :26:32. | |
was saved by Cuthbert, but cut managed to get onto the rebound. | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
Minutes later coming is almost doubled his lead, he was on the edge | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
of the box, saw Cuthbert off his line and tried to float one over. | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
of the box, saw Cuthbert off his But it went over the crossbar. Raith | :26:48. | :26:57. | |
Rovers did not have much in reply. A good day for the Hibs fans, 11th | :26:58. | :27:00. | |
thousand of them who made the journey here to Easter Road. | :27:01. | :27:12. | |

trip to of Fife, gents? Course the third tier of Scottish football | :27:24. | :27:28. | |
and it was a terrific 90 minutes. Dunfermline have won it and they | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
stay top of the table. It was a double from Michael Moffat that put | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
them there. He opened the scoring, a terrific goal. Good passing all the | :27:37. | :27:42. | |
way up the pitch and Moffat was in the right place to knock it past the | :27:43. | :27:44. | |
keeper at the edge of the box. the right place to knock it past the | :27:45. | :27:50. | |
the game, spends scoring an equaliser. He was away from his | :27:51. | :27:57. | |
defender and around the goalkeeper and knocked the ball into the net. | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
At that stage Cowdenbeath looked as they were -- as though they were on | :28:02. | :28:08. | |
top. Then a real problem for Cowdenbeath when their manager Colin | :28:09. | :28:11. | |
niche was on the pitch because he felt they should have had a penalty, | :28:12. | :28:14. | |
the referee felt they shouldn't and he sent Colin to the stands. Craig | :28:15. | :28:21. | |
Spence was through but a great save by the goalkeeper. But on 66 minutes | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
it was a penalty for Dunfermline. A long ball into the box and there was | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
pushing at the back post, the referee pointed to the spot and | :28:31. | :28:34. | |
Michael Moffat scored his 12th goal of the season to give Dunfermline | :28:35. | :28:37. | |
the wind that keeps them top of the table. I'll tell you, Dunfermline | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
will be a real test for Ross County next week in the cup. Time for us to | :28:42. | :28:47. | |
some our very own fourth official with his wee board, because it is | :28:48. | :28:50. | |
time for the classified results round-up. | :28:51. | :28:58. | |
remark we will start with the Ladbrokes Scottish Premiership. | :28:59. | :32:38. | |
Let's have a look at the league tables, starting with the Scottish | :32:39. | :32:45. | |
Premiership. The later Lee Griffiths goal gives Celtic 1-0 win over | :32:46. | :32:47. | |
Partick Thistle. What a day! Plenty of goals in the | :32:48. | :34:57. | |
Premiership this afternoon. It has to be said, they might not be | :34:58. | :35:01. | |
getting the headlines, but possibly Lee Griffiths goal? That will be the | :35:02. | :35:10. | |
case. The manager said in the week, what will do if Aberdeen win, they | :35:11. | :35:12. | |
case. The manager said in the week, are getting close. It was a big | :35:13. | :35:16. | |
result for Celtic. When you have lost and drawn your last few games. | :35:17. | :35:22. | |
Lee Griffiths the man on target. Three points at home to Partick | :35:23. | :35:27. | |
Thistle doesn't sound a massive result, but it might be at the end | :35:28. | :35:33. | |
of the season. Desperate for Dundee United. They seem marooned? Only a | :35:34. | :35:42. | |
point, but psychologically the team's closest to Dundee United | :35:43. | :35:45. | |
today have gone behind under managed to salvage a point. Dundee United | :35:46. | :35:49. | |
Avenue gone ahead and then not manage to do that. They have been | :35:50. | :35:53. | |
cut adrift and it doesn't look like they are closing the gap. The | :35:54. | :36:01. | |
question is, which one of the two teams in the area will | :36:02. | :36:03. | |
question is, which one of the two down? It is not lost at the moment, | :36:04. | :36:08. | |
but Dundee United need to turn it around immediately. Both Highland | :36:09. | :36:15. | |
clubs in the top six. Things look like they are turning round the | :36:16. | :36:18. | |
clubs in the top six. Things look Caledonian Thistle? It is wonderful | :36:19. | :36:21. | |
the two Highland teams have come into the league and | :36:22. | :36:26. | |
finals and Inverness have one. But you look at the middle section. | :36:27. | :36:30. | |
finals and Inverness have one. But Inverness, in the | :36:31. | :36:30. | |
come on, in the play-off spot. Seven points. You win a couple of games, | :36:31. | :36:40. | |
you are in the top six. You lose a couple of games and you could be | :36:41. | :36:42. | |
down in couple of games and you could be | :36:43. | :36:50. | |
you could come up against a team who have had a really good season. It | :36:51. | :36:54. | |
could be Celtic, could be Rangers it could be Hibs. You have to play your | :36:55. | :36:57. | |
best to beat them. Sorry gentlemen, could be Hibs. You have to play your | :36:58. | :37:05. | |
I will have two end it there. We are running out of time, but we can | :37:06. | :37:08. | |
