Good evening. We continue to have an interesting race at the top of the | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
Scottish premiership. Admittedly, it is only September. We have two | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
interesting desks, never short of an opinion. Craig Gordon and Stuart | :00:50. | :00:57. | |
Lovell join us to discuss red card, angry managers and an early | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
contender for goal of the season. Plenty to keep you entertained for | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
the next 45 minutes. Sunday postal service from Dundee and Motherwell. | :01:08. | :01:15. | |
Will St Johnstone hit Celtic on the rebound? Have St Mirren saved their | :01:15. | :01:24. | |
best for Hibernian? Ross County and hearts. We start at Tannadice, where | :01:24. | :01:34. | |
a done deal to side on the up first Motherwell. Stuart McCall side | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
starting to find their Scottish premiership strike. They won their | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
last three matches. United were fresh from their Highland goals raid | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
against Ross County. What a chance that was. Right in | :01:46. | :02:44. | |
front of the goal. Zaine Francis-Angol is quick. | :02:44. | :02:59. | |
Half an hour gone. Terrific play from Zaine Francis-Angol. That was | :02:59. | :03:23. | |
emphatic. Good play and good finish. 1-0. Keith Lasley. Simon Ramsden. | :03:23. | :03:46. | |
Andy Robinson 's past. -- pass. That was pretty impressive from Dundee. | :03:46. | :04:17. | |
Keith Lasley, blocked. Nadir Ciftci seizes the opportunity to score | :04:17. | :04:28. | |
again. He rattles in his fourth goal for Dundee. | :04:28. | :04:46. | |
Andy Robinson. He is off. Nothing much standing in his way. Robinson | :04:46. | :05:05. | |
's first goal for them to you it. - - Robinson 's first goal for Dundee | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
to. Looks like Keith Lasley to strike | :05:07. | :05:56. | |
it. So close. Lovely skill from the DS if they. - - lovely skill from | :05:56. | :06:10. | |
Nadir Ciftci. Brilliant setup from him. Lionel Ainsworth, off the | :06:10. | :06:22. | |
bench. Spectacular from the substitute. But as Lord Chesney act | :06:22. | :06:29. | |
- - Radoslaw Cierzniak. I thought we had a far better second | :06:29. | :07:16. | |
half. I thought we deserved to take the lead. Disappointed. It is | :07:16. | :07:26. | |
probably a 2-point drop. I have two congratulate them from coming back. | :07:26. | :07:35. | |
Keith Lasley hit the inside of the post with that free kick. Four | :07:35. | :07:45. | |
goals, in terms of the spectacle of football, how good a match was that? | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
It was a great match. And no surprise, really. If I had been to | :07:51. | :08:00. | |
see any match in the premiership, a would hoping that one it was a | :08:00. | :08:09. | |
cracker. Lionel Ainsworth, what a strike. Would you have managed to | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
save this? I don't know, I doubt it. Plenty of space opened in front of | :08:11. | :08:25. | |
him, and he just thought he might as well have a go. It is a great | :08:25. | :08:35. | |
finish. What about the defensive | :08:35. | :08:47. | |
deficiencies we saw at times in this game? | :08:47. | :08:55. | |
That was a brilliant goal. It was kind of like the parting of the red | :08:55. | :09:05. | |
Sea. As a keeper, you would be too | :09:05. | :09:16. | |
impressed with having thrown at you, I take it? No. They will not be | :09:16. | :09:31. | |
happy with that. Next to the team with the best record in Scottish | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
premiership history. Inverness Caledonian Thistle. Terry Butcher | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
side have been a revelation, peering down from the top of the table on a | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
rest. Could they keep it going? They faced what was sure to be a tough | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
test away to Aberdeen. Leah McLeod was watching. | :09:47. | :10:17. | |
I think he was blocked by his own man there. Zola got in the way. | :10:17. | :10:44. | |
Peter Pawlett has started the season so impressively. Zola, Cammy Smith. | :10:44. | :10:58. | |
That was really strong from Dean Brill. The corner again. That was | :10:58. | :11:10. | |
concertante for is the referee has opted something. Good first half. No | :11:11. | :11:26. | |
goals. . And Dean Brill, again. Instinctive. Graeme Shinnie. | :11:26. | :11:41. | |
Draper, sidestepping away from Smith. | :11:41. | :12:26. | |
Jonny Hayes was caught late there. Craig Thomson has been busy this | :12:26. | :12:36. | |
afternoon. A wonderful finish from Scott | :12:36. | :13:06. | |
Vernon. His first of the season, and what a way to grab it. | :13:06. | :13:23. | |
Terry Butcher has forgotten what it is like to lose a match. | :13:24. | :14:00. | |
He was rewarded for his persistence. It gives us a chance to assess and | :14:00. | :14:08. | |
think, what didn't we do on Saturday, what can we do to put that | :14:08. | :14:19. | |
right in the future? A strange taste of defeat for Terry Butcher. | :14:19. | :14:27. | |
Not too tricky when you consider the start to the season they've had. I'm | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
sure before the ball was kicked they will have snatched their hand off so | :14:32. | :14:39. | |
they'll be pleased. Disappointing to lose and your winning run to come to | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
an end, but by all accounts they competed very well and one goal in | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
it, there wasn't too much to be disappointed about. | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
Great win for Aberdeen. Scott Vernon with the goal. He's been crying out | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
for a goal. How much will this mean to him? Strikers thrive on the | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
confidence from scoring goals. That's his first of the season and | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
the Aberdeen fans will be hoping that sets him off on a run now. | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
Unorthodox build-up? Yes, very scrappy and Inverness are deep | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
trying to defend their box. Take nothing away from the finish. | :15:13. | :15:19. | |
Absolutely no chance there. The back four to be out of the box. | :15:19. | :15:31. | |
They would have been able to deal with the ball in the box easier, but | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
credit where it's due. A big win for Aberdeen. So many | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
people tipping them for big things. They celebrated like this was a | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
massive win for them. They'll be looking to try to get the | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
second spot. Don't let Inverness get too far away | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
from them. There's a big win for them. They have experienced players | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
to come back to the fold to help strengthen the claim for that so | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
things are looking good for them. Plenty more football to Comptonite. | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
And we have live football for you on Wednesday night too. It's in the | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
League Cup. Aberdeen will be hoping to follow up the win over Inverness. | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
They are away to Falkirk. And still to Comptonite: | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
Two managers who know all about pressure. Danny Lennon, faces Hibs. | :16:22. | :16:32. | |
After their bright start to the season, St Johnston went into the | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
weekend without a within in three games. They were away to Celtic and | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
things didn't look too hopeful for Tommy Wright's side. Having said | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
that, would the Scottish champions be suffering from a Champions League | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
hangover? Heartbreak for Celtic. Goes into the | :16:47. | :16:56. | |
back of the net. Balotelli. The rebound goes in. It's AC my listen | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
2, Celtic 0. Celtic still chasing the European | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
Dream, but it was back to domestic duties, T Johnstone the visitors in | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
the East End. Commentary from John Barnes. | :17:10. | :17:35. | |
Celtic looking for a change in form after European matches. Failed to | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
win six of their domestic games last season played after European ties. | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
Six out of 12. Here is Matthews. His throw. Oh, and he has the shot. | :17:42. | :18:05. | |
And he gets the goal, his second for Celtic, his first start for the club | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
and it comes after ten minutes. His effort straight through the | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
goalkeeper. Mulgrew. | :18:15. | :18:42. | |
And Celtic 2-0 in front. Charlie Mulgrew on the score sheet once | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
more. That trusted left foot of his from 25 yards range. | :18:46. | :18:53. | |
May have taken a little nick off a St Johnstone defender. | :18:53. | :19:02. | |
Very alert and very productive and create creative on the right-wing so | :19:02. | :19:10. | |
far. Here is Stokes. Should have been a better connection. Good cross | :19:10. | :19:17. | |
in from Stokes. Seemed to come off the shoulder of the Dutchman. | :19:17. | :19:24. | |
Good switch of play from Stokes. So close to number three for Celtic. | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
They are well and truly on top. Weatherspoon. Good delivery in. Just | :19:30. | :19:51. | |
over the top. That effort silences the home | :19:51. | :20:00. | |
support. Mulgrew's corner. Stokes at the back and cleared off the line by | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
Maclean. Initially the effort looked to be | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
blocked. May. Millar ahead of him. Millar | :20:08. | :20:25. | |
with a chance and Parried away by Foster. | :20:25. | :20:39. | |
Mackay. Good spell for St Johnstone. Caddice and St Johnstone have pulled | :20:39. | :20:51. | |
a goal back with eight minutes left to play. And now Foster won't | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
release the ball and the referee is having to split them up. Mackay's | :20:58. | :21:05. | |
delivery in, got ahead of Van Dijk. The day after his 20th birthday, | :21:05. | :21:11. | |
he'll have enjoyed that goal, Liam Caddice. | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
Now St Johnstone are looking for the leveller. Maclean. He's gone to | :21:15. | :21:23. | |
ground. Looking for a penalty. But the referee was close to the | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
incident. McDonald. May. It's off the post! | :21:25. | :21:47. | |
McKay and Foster to Celtic's rescue. That may well have secured the three | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
points for the Parkhead club, that super save there by the English | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
goalkeeper. It wasn't a penalty, no, it's | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
rubbish. Steven has a tendency to go down. All players go Down Under a | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
challenge all the time. REPORTER: Easily? Well, listen, I've | :22:09. | :22:16. | |
a golden rule, I don't comment on opposition's players, so maybe Neil | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
shouldn't comment on mine. The managers having a spat there | :22:20. | :22:25. | |
over the Maclean penalty claim incident. Stuart, was there any way | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
this was a penalty or was it a dive? I was sitting on the gantry | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
yesterday and from 60 yards away I didn't think there was much contact. | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
When you see it on the slow-mo, there doesn't appear to be so. The | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
referee's done well to call this one the way he did because the | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
temptation is, you think they may have clipped heels, but I don't | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
think that was the case, it wasn't a penalty. Surprised that Neil Lennon | :22:50. | :22:59. | |
said he had a tendency to do this? I mean from the evidence, there was | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
little contact? I don't think he has a great reputation for doing that, | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
it wasn't a penalty, but the penalty did excellent there, he's in a great | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
position to call it and has made the right decision. That could have been | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
the difference many the game and I think that's what angered Neil | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
Lennon. That could have been the difference between one point and | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
three. Thankfully the referee got that right. Two teams now. He's a | :23:20. | :23:56. | |
penalty box striker and I would expect Pukki to go on to great | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
things. First goal against Hearts last week. Fraser Foster on the | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
other hand, was there any sense that he might have been at fault for the | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
St Johnstone goal? A little too close to his near post when the | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
cross comes in. The ball goes back, freeze it there, he's not | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
re-adjusted his position back into the middle of the goal. He might | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
have given himself the chance to get the cross, not saying he could have | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
definitely; but there was a chance if his position had been better and | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
he could have done that. Making the vital save at the end there, | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
match-winning contribution to ensure they get the three points. Ended up | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
being a good day for him. How do you define the Celtic performance? I was | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
there and they were utterly dominant for three quarters of the match, yet | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
St Johnstone almost snatched the point? Celtic should have been out | :24:48. | :24:59. | |
of sight by the hour mark. Jtsedz a couple of substitutions gave them | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
fresh impetus. Celtic were hanging on at the end kind of which is | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
bizarre because they were the better team over the 90 my opinions. -- | :25:06. | :25:13. | |
minutes. To be fair to the Hibs boss, things are on the up. Four | :25:13. | :25:19. | |
matches unbeaten, 2-1 winners last week and sunshine on Leith | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
threatening to break out at Easter Road. These are pretty dark days for | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
Danny Lennon at St Mirren. Every week, his future is being discussed. | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
One point on the board so far. Could he finally get that much-needed | :25:34. | :25:42. | |
victory? Couldn't have gotten off to a much | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
better start for Hibbs or worse for St Mirren. This was Collins' second | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
in as many games as Hibs took a lead in the tenth minute. | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
Hibs paid £200,000 for Collins. The money looks like it might have been | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
well spent as he cracked in another effort that wasn't far off. | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
The home side were looking much the better side against the lacklustre | :26:07. | :26:14. | |
St Mirren, the shot from Hevron pushed wide by Dylan The green tide | :26:14. | :26:21. | |
continued to flow in a goal ward direction in the second half as St | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
Mirren tried to keep a foothold. Craig with the shot this time. | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
After the bad start to the season, they are now playing football that's | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
getting decent results. Heffernon made it 2-0, sealing another defeat | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
on St Mirren. The Paisley side were offering | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
precious little and Hibs might have scored again. This set-up from | :26:48. | :26:58. | |
Collins ruled out for offside. Robertson with the initial drive. A | :26:58. | :27:05. | |
moment of slightly nervous goalkeeping footwork almost led to a | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
goal of the season contender from Craig. | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
Suddenly life looks brighter foreHibs and Fenlon. | :27:15. | :27:28. | |
Grainger picked up a yellow card. Then, when he blasted this free kick | :27:28. | :27:36. | |
against maybury, it capped off another bad day for Saints, as he | :27:36. | :27:41. | |
was given his marching orders. Will Danny Lennon now get his marching | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
orders from the St Mirren board? You have to keep working hard and have a | :27:46. | :27:51. | |
belief in what you are doing. They worked tremendously hard and are | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
trying to form into game day. That's a big difference. Just keep | :27:56. | :28:00. | |
believing and having faith. I look at other managers who're under the | :28:00. | :28:04. | |
same pressure as last season. In terms of having a second half of the | :28:04. | :28:09. | |
season to turn it around, derrick Adams, one game in nine, but he's a | :28:09. | :28:15. | |
fantastic second half to the season. Lomas, who I think was one game in | :28:15. | :28:19. | |
four or something, we are beyond that now, but again he goes and | :28:19. | :28:25. | |
turns that corner quickly. Those both clubs are rewarded by having | :28:25. | :28:30. | |
faith in their manager and turning it around. I believe we can do the | :28:30. | :28:36. | |
same. We'll have our weekly Danny Lennon discussion shortly. Can Danny | :28:36. | :28:42. | |
Lennon take inspiration from Pat Fenlon who was under pressure at the | :28:42. | :28:46. | |
beginning of the season and who is now five matches unbeaten? | :28:46. | :28:52. | |
Absolutely. There was pressure for Fenlon with a slow start to the | :28:52. | :28:57. | |
season from Hibernian. The spotlight's moved on somewhere else | :28:58. | :29:00. | |
and I think Danny would do well to look at that and think, if we can | :29:01. | :29:04. | |
get a few results, turn things around, invariably, that may well be | :29:04. | :29:08. | |
what happens. It would be lovely for us to see, maybe go a whole season | :29:09. | :29:12. | |
without a manager getting sacked. That would be a refreshing change. | :29:12. | :29:16. | |
Unlikely I think possibly. But we shall see. In terms of the chances | :29:16. | :29:21. | |
there, Craig, it was pretty much wall-to-wall Hibs chances. A very | :29:21. | :29:25. | |
busy afternoon for this young goalkeeper between the sticks for St | :29:25. | :29:29. | |
Mirren. How impressed were you by him? | :29:29. | :29:44. | |
I was quite impressed. I was a nervous moment. They should probably | :29:44. | :29:55. | |
take that first time, but he still gets the ball away. I think he will | :29:55. | :30:02. | |
be very happy with his first start. It is a great start. Stewart, let's | :30:02. | :30:11. | |
talk about Danny Lennon. Next game for them we tomorrow, against | :30:11. | :30:20. | |
Aberdeen. Can he hang onto his job? It is quite obvious, they need to | :30:20. | :30:24. | |
get winning, and quickly. Hearts have stuttered a little bit. They | :30:24. | :30:30. | |
have lost their last three games. They are still in a position of | :30:31. | :30:36. | |
strength. Danny knows the game. All managers understand they are under | :30:36. | :30:44. | |
pressure to get results. More football to come tonight. It never | :30:44. | :30:51. | |
ends. Online, you can watch Scottish premiership highlights any time you | :30:52. | :30:57. | |
like on the BBC Sport website. Still to come: Probably yesterday 's most | :30:57. | :31:07. | |
in ten - - probably yesterday 's most entertaining game in the | :31:08. | :31:13. | |
Scottish premiership, Kilmarnock the visitors at Partick Thistle. | :31:13. | :31:16. | |
If hearts are going to move off the bottom of the table, Ross County are | :31:17. | :31:20. | |
one of the sites that inmates have their eye on. It has been a tough | :31:20. | :31:30. | |
season so far for Derek Adams side. They started the day 12 point and | :31:30. | :31:34. | |
head of a young hearts side, still trying to make inroads. | :31:34. | :31:44. | |
Ross County created plenty of chances early on. Despite their | :31:44. | :31:54. | |
efforts, the visitors went ahead. Kevin McHattie whipped in a goal. | :31:54. | :32:18. | |
Although the home side dominated for much of the match, hearts did | :32:18. | :32:22. | |
threaten. Callum Paterson got some luck there, but couldn't get it in. | :32:22. | :32:32. | |
It was a good effort. Despite being on the back foot, Mark Brown have to | :32:33. | :32:43. | |
look lively. It looks as though hearts were going to hang on. They | :32:43. | :32:58. | |
kept playing. Melvin de Leeuw did well. The goal came in the 89th | :32:58. | :33:15. | |
minute full is. - - the goal came in the 89th minute. The Ross County | :33:15. | :33:20. | |
captain provided the finish. Over the 90 minutes, I thought we | :33:20. | :34:01. | |
played well, created openings. I think we deserved to take something. | :34:01. | :34:16. | |
It was a kick in the teeth for us. It has cost us. That was a | :34:16. | :34:35. | |
fantastically true. It is a big blow for them. Difficult to bounce back? | :34:35. | :34:57. | |
It is up to them to bounce back. What will it mean, the second when? | :34:57. | :35:10. | |
They made such a mark last season. How much better can they get? I | :35:10. | :35:16. | |
think Ross County see themselves as a progressive club. Somebody has to | :35:16. | :35:21. | |
be that charging for second place. I think we all agree Celtic will | :35:21. | :35:32. | |
probably win the league. It was massive for them. | :35:32. | :35:38. | |
In a late plot twist, the last match of the night is actually one of the | :35:38. | :35:41. | |
best. Partick Thistle brand of attacking foot boat has an plenty of | :35:41. | :35:47. | |
plaudits and a decent haul of points. They were up against a cool | :35:47. | :35:50. | |
Marnoch side still searching for their first win of the season. | :35:50. | :36:48. | |
Aaron Muirhead. Patrick Little ahead. - - Partick Thistle head. | :36:48. | :37:37. | |
Sean Clohessy. It is a great cross. Mickelson failed to get the target. | :37:37. | :38:04. | |
Kilmarnock have levelled three minutes into the second half. Sean | :38:04. | :38:42. | |
Clohessy was alone for so long. Kris Boyd, well, we know what he can do. | :38:43. | :38:53. | |
Kilmarnock are starting to find a rhythm in the second half. Stephen | :38:54. | :39:06. | |
O'Donnell takes it away. Terrific cross over from Michael Gardyne. | :39:06. | :39:19. | |
That was certainly the pick of the bunch. | :39:19. | :40:20. | |
Hopefully, we can work on that. The boys were playing good football. | :40:20. | :40:39. | |
There have really beaded of contentious decisions this week. | :40:39. | :40:48. | |
What about his penalty decision? I think if you saw this anywhere else, | :40:48. | :40:53. | |
you would say yes. A little bit reckless and clumsy. I | :40:53. | :41:00. | |
agree. The goalkeeper is both played well | :41:00. | :41:10. | |
in this match. Scott Fox. That first one was really sharp. | :41:10. | :41:28. | |
This was also a good save. Craig Samson probably edges it. This was a | :41:28. | :41:50. | |
really good save. It is very important. Great save. | :41:50. | :42:03. | |
Let's talk about co-Marnoch. - - Kilmarnock. It is amazing what a | :42:04. | :42:25. | |
wing can do. Think about Pat Fenlon. It is just small steps. Try and get | :42:25. | :42:33. | |
a clean sheet, then hopefully work towards getting a result. Thank you | :42:33. | :42:40. | |
very much. That is it now. What does it mean for the table? Let's have a | :42:40. | :42:42. | |
look. ? in terms of the action. What will | :42:42. | :43:06. | |
the back pages look like tomorrow? We can have a sneak preview. | :43:06. | :43:22. | |
that is Lionel Ainsworth and that sensational strike. We have bled out | :43:22. | :43:46. | |
the bottom section. That is to make sure we do not spoil much of the | :43:46. | :43:47. | |
day. I think we all do she Celtic will | :43:48. | :44:05. | |
win the title. Who's using will be the best of the rest? I think it is | :44:05. | :44:14. | |
so tight. Inverness have had a great start. By burning them have been | :44:14. | :44:17. | |
doing really well. Motherwell, Dundee. It will be exciting. Thanks | :44:17. | :44:30. | |
very much. That is it for another week. Sportscene is back on | :44:30. | :44:36. | |
Wednesday night. We are back same time next weekend. See you. Good | :44:36. | :44:40. |
