Believe it or not, we're ten weeks into the season. For us it has gone | 0:00:17 | 0:00:27 | |
0:00:27 | 0:00:38 | ||
Stokes doesn't miss it. Now that's a finish. Jim Jefferies is no | 0:00:38 | 0:00:45 | |
longer the manager of Hearts. Lafferty is back. McKay and it's in | 0:00:45 | 0:00:55 | |
the back of the net! Derby delight for Hearts. That is impettious. | 0:00:55 | 0:01:05 | |
0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | ||
That is unorthodox. First blood for Rangers. He has found it. So ten | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
weeks gone and Celtic went to Tynecastle ten points behind | 0:01:13 | 0:01:20 | |
Rangers. Hibs assistants manager Billy Brown was back to watch the | 0:01:20 | 0:01:27 | |
game. For Neil Lennon, last season going there was grim and never dull. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
Black thinks about the shot. Deflected goal. Ledley that, that | 0:01:31 | 0:01:37 | |
could be a bad tackle. The referee goes to his pocket and it is a | 0:01:37 | 0:01:42 | |
straight red. A perfect ball and a perfect finish or the Templeton. It | 0:01:42 | 0:01:47 | |
looked like a hand. It is Neil Lennon's turn to take the walk up | 0:01:47 | 0:01:52 | |
the tunnel. Hooper, 1-0. It should have been a red card. He's done it | 0:01:52 | 0:01:58 | |
again. Great skill, great goal, but a second yellow for Commons. He is | 0:01:58 | 0:02:08 | |
0:02:08 | 0:02:21 | ||
off. Here is the Hearts team Celtic return of Kris Commons, and El | 0:02:21 | 0:02:26 | |
Kaddouri. The best of the match with Paul Mitchell. Black sends it | 0:02:26 | 0:02:33 | |
through and Stevenson is in and forces a save from Forster. He was | 0:02:33 | 0:02:40 | |
played onside. Majstorovic gave him a yard and Stevenson almost made | 0:02:40 | 0:02:46 | |
Celtic pay. Back at Tynecastle, back on the touchline. Hamill | 0:02:46 | 0:02:54 | |
swings it in. Zaliukas and almost touched in by tempson. Ki makes the | 0:02:55 | 0:03:04 | |
0:03:05 | 0:03:06 | ||
block. -- Templeton. Not sure if Templeton got a touch. Ki blocked | 0:03:06 | 0:03:16 | |
0:03:16 | 0:03:22 | ||
he got the power on the header that he was looking for. Granger | 0:03:22 | 0:03:32 | |
0:03:32 | 0:04:04 | ||
presented it to Forest. Forest with ball. Majstorovic stretching out | 0:04:04 | 0:04:14 | |
0:04:14 | 0:04:28 | ||
there. The chairman watching on to make the save. The ball goes | 0:04:28 | 0:04:38 | |
0:04:38 | 0:04:43 | ||
behind. It is a good save from the in the SPL without conceding. But | 0:04:43 | 0:04:49 | |
they're on the back foot here. Commons from his left on to his | 0:04:49 | 0:04:55 | |
right and parried by Macdonald. Kris Commons comfortable to strike | 0:04:55 | 0:05:05 | |
0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | ||
with either foot. This time the right. Bangura with the shot. For | 0:05:07 | 0:05:17 | |
Hearts fortunately it goes over the top. Bangura controlled it well. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
Mel grew against Stevenson. The ball goes for a goal kick. There | 0:05:22 | 0:05:27 | |
was an appeal for hand ball. Stevenson had his back to him. The | 0:05:27 | 0:05:37 | |
0:05:37 | 0:05:47 | ||
ball simply hit his hand. No great 15 minutes gone. The hero is Skacel. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:57 | |
Celtic didn't deal with the high ball. Templeton tumped it down and | 0:05:57 | 0:06:03 | |
Skacel diswatched -- touched it down and Skacel dis batched -- | 0:06:03 | 0:06:12 | |
dispatched the ball. Commons has gone over the top and he is off. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:17 | |
What an easy decision for the referee Kris Commons was sent off | 0:06:17 | 0:06:27 | |
0:06:27 | 0:06:41 | ||
here in the 3-0 win in May goes down to ten men with the departure | 0:06:41 | 0:06:51 | |
0:06:51 | 0:07:01 | ||
of Kris Commons. And Stokes Stevenson, past the keeper and in. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:07 | |
Ryan Stevenson will wrap up the points for Hearts. Well he looked | 0:07:07 | 0:07:13 | |
offside, but it will be a different phase of play. Clever from | 0:07:13 | 0:07:19 | |
Templeton and calm from Stevenson. Mulgrew threw up an arm. But | 0:07:19 | 0:07:25 | |
Templeton's clever back heel. And Hearts lead by 2-0. Misery for | 0:07:25 | 0:07:31 | |
Celtic. There noise point in getting carried away, because we | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
beat -- there is no point in getting carried away because we | 0:07:35 | 0:07:41 | |
beat Celtic. We played well. But we can't just play like that today and | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
then in two weeks not apply ourselves in the same manner. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:51 | |
conceded a poor goal when we were on top. After half time we had | 0:07:51 | 0:07:56 | |
control of the game. My biggest bug bear about today is... The amount | 0:07:56 | 0:08:03 | |
of good chances we missed. We were flagrant in front of goal and away | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
from home, the longer the game is 0-0, you give the opposition | 0:08:06 | 0:08:12 | |
encouragement. I thraugts if we had got a goal it would have opened up | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
Heart. But the first goal changed the nature of the game and then we | 0:08:16 | 0:08:22 | |
lost our discipline. Or one player did. And let us down badly. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
happy doesn't quite cover it for happy doesn't quite cover it for | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
Neil Lennon. That was your first time being back at Hearts since | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
being sacked by Hearts, did it feel strange? Yes I didn't think I would | 0:08:35 | 0:08:40 | |
be back as quick. We play Hearts in the League Cup and it was part of | 0:08:40 | 0:08:44 | |
my job to go there. It was Prebble better to get it over with. Does it | 0:08:44 | 0:08:48 | |
feel, do you feel better about going into the League Cup tie than | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
you would have done a couple of week ago, because of Celtic's | 0:08:52 | 0:08:59 | |
situation and Hibs? There has been a progression in our performances. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
We looked good yesterday, although we got beat, it was a good step up | 0:09:03 | 0:09:09 | |
and every game we have got better. It gives you heart to take on | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
Celtic. Because you know, they're not doing as well as what they were | 0:09:13 | 0:09:18 | |
and we're on an upward climb. confirms that Celtic don't ring as | 0:09:18 | 0:09:27 | |
well. This was -- aren't doing as well. This was -- aren't doing as | 0:09:27 | 0:09:32 | |
well. This was an awful build up. Why master vich -- Majstorovic | 0:09:32 | 0:09:38 | |
didn't led that out of way. As soon as it drops to Skacel, he is a good | 0:09:38 | 0:09:45 | |
striker of the ball, there was only one place it would ends up in the | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
end. Stevenson may have been offside. But I think it is | 0:09:48 | 0:09:54 | |
clutching at straws for Celtic. He finished it well. Yes I don't think | 0:09:54 | 0:09:59 | |
Ryan, you can't blame the linesman for not getting I right. But great | 0:09:59 | 0:10:05 | |
play from Templeton and a great firn. Templeton's got that in his | 0:10:05 | 0:10:12 | |
locker. He's really good player. At that stage, much deserved. That | 0:10:12 | 0:10:19 | |
will do Paolo sench owe a lot of good. The Hearts -- Sergio a lot of | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
good. The Hearts fans think he has not set the place alight. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:29 | |
beating Celtic is a big result and he was under pressure today. When | 0:10:29 | 0:10:34 | |
you're at Heart and Hibs, you're under pressure to get results and | 0:10:34 | 0:10:40 | |
it will do him a power of good and he can maybe increase his lease on | 0:10:40 | 0:10:44 | |
his flat. Kris Commons made an impact for obvious reasons. But | 0:10:44 | 0:10:51 | |
early in the game, you saw why he brings Celtic to life at times. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:56 | |
He's good player. You know he is dangerous and got a good shot. He | 0:10:56 | 0:11:05 | |
has not played in the last few weeks. But today he did well. But I | 0:11:05 | 0:11:11 | |
mean what he did here, after his team going 1-0 down is crazy. And I | 0:11:11 | 0:11:16 | |
thought Neil summed it up well, he has let his team mates down. There | 0:11:16 | 0:11:23 | |
is 25 minutes to go and thrair well in the game at the time. After that, | 0:11:23 | 0:11:30 | |
they have no chance. There was a rare sighting of the Hearts owner, | 0:11:30 | 0:11:35 | |
I take its you were over exchanging pleasantrys with him. No, I never | 0:11:35 | 0:11:43 | |
had much to do with him when I was there and I don't intend to have | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
much to do with him now I have left. He was catching his private jet | 0:11:47 | 0:11:51 | |
back to Lithuania. I love the look on the face of security officer | 0:11:51 | 0:11:58 | |
there. The fear of doth was in her eyes. How sore are you about being | 0:11:58 | 0:12:04 | |
sacked by Hearts? I am not sore now. These things help you. Jim and I | 0:12:04 | 0:12:09 | |
done very well there. I showed Hearts a lot of loyalty in both | 0:12:09 | 0:12:14 | |
periods frplts I have been sacked there twice. In the crunch I got no | 0:12:15 | 0:12:20 | |
loyalty back. I'm not hurt about it. I was offered a good job with an | 0:12:20 | 0:12:25 | |
equally big club and I have got a burning desire to do well there. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:32 | |
And you know everyone's set up to do well. Rangers set out yesterday | 0:12:32 | 0:12:37 | |
to stretch their SPL run to nine in a row. But it was a visit to Ibrox | 0:12:37 | 0:12:43 | |
a year ago that gave Colin Calderwood his first win as Hibs | 0:12:43 | 0:12:52 | |
Calderwood his first win as Hibs manager. That is a peach into the | 0:12:52 | 0:13:02 | |
0:13:02 | 0:13:03 | ||
top corner. Colin Calderwood has an unlikely first victory as Hibs | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
manager. Hibs were back to face a Rangers change showing one change | 0:13:07 | 0:13:17 | |
0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | ||
from the win against Kilmarnock. A first start for bedo I ya. -- | 0:13:19 | 0:13:29 | |
0:13:29 | 0:13:38 | ||
to Wylde. Stack came to meet him. It is the first sights of goal that | 0:13:38 | 0:13:47 | |
Rangers have had in the game. The last time Hibs came here, they one | 0:13:47 | 0:13:57 | |
0:13:57 | 0:14:12 | ||
game so far. Rangers have one man down. Heads are playing on ASDA has | 0:14:12 | 0:14:22 | |
0:14:22 | 0:14:22 | ||
been no was all. Sproule! -- Hibernian are playing on as there | 0:14:22 | 0:14:32 | |
0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | ||
was no whistle. Stack was the hero. Great ball from Kyle Lafferty right | 0:14:35 | 0:14:42 | |
through to the Croatian. Good first touch. Lafferty can certainly hit | 0:14:42 | 0:14:51 | |
them from here. Stack get rid of it. Didn't look as though it had that | 0:14:51 | 0:15:00 | |
much power in it. It is a slippy surface. Davies. Another great ball | 0:15:00 | 0:15:08 | |
through for Lafferty. Penalty! Stack was the offender. He has | 0:15:08 | 0:15:13 | |
denied Rangers a couple of times in the first half. In stoppage time of | 0:15:13 | 0:15:21 | |
the first half, he concede a penalty. It is Whitaker. Over! | 0:15:21 | 0:15:29 | |
Chance missed for Rangers right on the interval. In from Scott. He | 0:15:29 | 0:15:39 | |
0:15:39 | 0:15:40 | ||
will get a second goal. Still plenty to head. Hanlon! Unlucky. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:50 | |
0:15:50 | 0:15:55 | ||
Should have got that on target. Side net. This is all,. Onside. | 0:15:55 | 0:16:05 | |
0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | ||
Saved by MacGregor. Chance of the game for Hibernian. He scored | 0:16:07 | 0:16:13 | |
against St Johnstone midweek. He could not finish it today. Chances | 0:16:13 | 0:16:23 | |
0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | ||
like that don't come along too long in Glasgow for a visiting side. The | 0:16:26 | 0:16:36 | |
0:16:36 | 0:16:45 | ||
flag is up. The assistant referee says it does not count. Papac. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:55 | |
0:16:55 | 0:16:56 | ||
Hibernian are defending well. Gregg Wylde. Good ball in. Lafferty! 1-0 | 0:16:56 | 0:17:03 | |
to Rangers. Moving into the final quarter of the game, nerves have | 0:17:03 | 0:17:10 | |
settled thanks to Lafferty's second of the season. Terrific ball from | 0:17:10 | 0:17:19 | |
Graeme wild. -- Greg Wilde. Rangers hoping to move 10 points clear of | 0:17:20 | 0:17:24 | |
Celtic. Looking for a second goal here that would surely clinch it. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:33 | |
This is Lafferty. Still plenty options there for him. Davies. Good | 0:17:33 | 0:17:43 | |
0:17:43 | 0:17:44 | ||
save by Stack. We have seen that several times throughout the match | 0:17:44 | 0:17:52 | |
for Graham Stack who has kept Rangers at bay. Not too clever that | 0:17:52 | 0:17:59 | |
time from Hibernian. Jelavic did not quite catch the shot as he | 0:17:59 | 0:18:09 | |
0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | ||
would have liked. Still does the one-goal advantage. -- just. Lively | 0:18:11 | 0:18:19 | |
from Gregg Wylde. Now Davies. Good ball. Jelavic is wanting to cut | 0:18:19 | 0:18:29 | |
0:18:29 | 0:18:35 | ||
ball. Jelavic is wanting to cut Losing 1-0 can probably never be a | 0:18:35 | 0:18:39 | |
great outcome, but can Hibernian take some encouragement from that? | 0:18:39 | 0:18:44 | |
Without doubt. You can go to these places and the goalkeeper has to | 0:18:44 | 0:18:50 | |
play well to start with. In general, the team played fairly well. They | 0:18:50 | 0:18:54 | |
played with passion and pass the ball a lot. Rangers had some | 0:18:54 | 0:19:00 | |
chances, but they always will. We were really happy with yesterday. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:04 | |
You should not be happy getting beat, but this was a good | 0:19:04 | 0:19:09 | |
progression and the team played well. The goalkeeper has to play | 0:19:09 | 0:19:16 | |
well and Graham Stack certainly dead. If he does not play well at | 0:19:16 | 0:19:20 | |
Ibrox, you are in trouble. He did exceptionally well yesterday and | 0:19:21 | 0:19:26 | |
made some vital stops. Rangers will always have chances the way that | 0:19:26 | 0:19:31 | |
they play, getting the ball in the box a lot. 0 complaints about the | 0:19:31 | 0:19:39 | |
penalty? No. I was surprised about Whitaker, though. Complaints about | 0:19:39 | 0:19:44 | |
the defending? At that period in the game, we were getting deeper | 0:19:44 | 0:19:50 | |
and deeper. We knew that Gregg Wylde's left the would clots -- | 0:19:50 | 0:19:58 | |
caused us a problem. We were under pressure. No complaints about the | 0:19:58 | 0:20:02 | |
goal at all for. You have to be pleased about the chances you | 0:20:02 | 0:20:07 | |
created at the other end. Good chances to score before they did. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:17 | |
We could have gone 1-0 up. MacGregor had some good saves. It | 0:20:17 | 0:20:22 | |
was a good header. Maybe we should have scored there. They have had a | 0:20:22 | 0:20:26 | |
lot of chances as well. I think Junior should have taken that | 0:20:26 | 0:20:31 | |
earlier than what he did. Decent save by the goalkeeper. At the end | 0:20:31 | 0:20:35 | |
of the day, Rangers probably deserved to win the game. We were | 0:20:36 | 0:20:40 | |
not unhappy with the performance. Losing at Ibrox is not a big deal | 0:20:40 | 0:20:45 | |
unless you are hammered and, but -- confidence is affected. Results | 0:20:45 | 0:20:55 | |
like the midweek one were probably more significant. You put three | 0:20:55 | 0:21:00 | |
goals past St Johnstone in their only away defeat this season. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
Ian Johnston are a good team defensively. Hearts could not score | 0:21:03 | 0:21:09 | |
against them last week. Garry O'Connor can score a good cause. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:17 | |
Tell me about the dive. I know Derek McInnes was unhappy. He has | 0:21:17 | 0:21:23 | |
every right to be unhappy. It was a dive. He got a break there. It | 0:21:23 | 0:21:28 | |
proved to be the winning goal and that made Derek match. I would have | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
been the same for all stop there is a lot of talk about whether Garry | 0:21:32 | 0:21:36 | |
O'Connor should be back in the Scotland squad. Kenny Miller is | 0:21:36 | 0:21:42 | |
about. Can you understand why Craig Levein has not put him in that | 0:21:42 | 0:21:47 | |
squad? Certainly. Craig has been in touch and spoken to Gary. He has | 0:21:47 | 0:21:53 | |
come up here and is doing ever so well. Maybe he should just be left | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
at the minute. Whether he has to call him in if there are injuries, | 0:21:56 | 0:22:01 | |
I think he is there to do that. Let's just let him play, score the | 0:22:01 | 0:22:07 | |
goals you scoring and get his confidence back. He is doing that. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:11 | |
As the season goes on, I am sure he will come into contention for the | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
Scotland squad. Inverness were bidding to escape | 0:22:14 | 0:22:17 | |
bottom spot in the SPL. St Mirren were in the Highland capital. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:27 | |
0:22:27 | 0:22:30 | ||
Jonathan Sutherland can tell us was matched only by equally | 0:22:30 | 0:22:37 | |
atrocious finish as Inverness squandered an early chance to take | 0:22:38 | 0:22:47 | |
0:22:48 | 0:22:48 | ||
the lead. Andrew Shinnie set up Goran Messina. He would get another | 0:22:48 | 0:22:55 | |
chance here. Faint cries for handball, but nothing doing. Danny | 0:22:55 | 0:22:59 | |
Lennon hoping for a St Mirren chance to brighten up his rainy day. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:09 | |
0:23:09 | 0:23:09 | ||
Although it came from the head of a defender, St Mirren's first attempt | 0:23:09 | 0:23:15 | |
on goal was unable to be kept out by the goalkeeper. With just over | 0:23:15 | 0:23:19 | |
half an hour played, Inverness equalised with a well-worked goal. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:29 | |
0:23:30 | 0:23:30 | ||
Andrew Shinnie finish things off here. -- finished. The former | 0:23:30 | 0:23:36 | |
Rangers player with his first goal of the campaign and things level. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:40 | |
It was a man of the match performance from Andrew Shinnie. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:46 | |
Hitting the post here with the help of a deflection off Lee Mair. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:52 | |
Andrew Shinnie's shot here went into the net together Inverness the | 0:23:52 | 0:24:02 | |
0:24:02 | 0:24:08 | ||
lead, 2-1. And out of sorts St Mirren did have the ball in the | 0:24:08 | 0:24:13 | |
back of the net. A fine finish from Paul McGowan was ruled out for | 0:24:14 | 0:24:19 | |
offside. Danny Lennon later admitted some bearing did not | 0:24:19 | 0:24:23 | |
deserve a share of the points. Inverness get their second SPL when | 0:24:23 | 0:24:33 | |
0:24:33 | 0:24:41 | ||
I am not sure if he will score more goals. What do you think? He is | 0:24:41 | 0:24:47 | |
running of the ball and that is great. His finishing leaves a bit | 0:24:47 | 0:24:52 | |
to be desired. I think the goal that he got was really just his | 0:24:52 | 0:24:57 | |
distance. It came off his knee. It is all right combinations. If | 0:24:57 | 0:25:03 | |
somebody beside him complain of his running power, then Terry Butcher | 0:25:03 | 0:25:08 | |
will be even happier with him. He is doing all right. I think you | 0:25:08 | 0:25:12 | |
call that a right place, right time. Five I think so. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
It is one thing starting the season strongly. It is another maintaining | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
momentum. That is what Motherwell wanted to do at Tannadice yesterday | 0:25:18 | 0:25:28 | |
0:25:28 | 0:25:52 | ||
against Dundee United. Paul options in the box. Lovely cutback. | 0:25:52 | 0:26:02 | |
0:26:02 | 0:26:06 | ||
Flood. Hayden has at chance for a second. The shot goes through the | 0:26:06 | 0:26:16 | |
0:26:16 | 0:26:20 | ||
goalkeeper. Michael Higdon gets gifted this one. Michael Higdon | 0:26:20 | 0:26:25 | |
still had plenty work to do. The keeper fumbles this threw his arms. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:30 | |
Right on the stroke of half-time, United have a lot better have | 0:26:30 | 0:26:34 | |
really given Motherwell all the encouragement they needed. That is | 0:26:34 | 0:26:41 | |
poor for the goalkeeper. United trying to find a way back into this | 0:26:41 | 0:26:51 | |
0:26:51 | 0:26:53 | ||
match. Decent cross from Garry Kenneth. Some shouts for handball. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:58 | |
The referee is in a good position. Jamie Murphy brings it away from | 0:26:58 | 0:27:07 | |
Motherwell. Murphy against floods. Great run. The goalkeeper comes out. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:17 | |
0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | ||
He spotted the pass brilliantly. United were appealing for a penalty. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:26 | |
Motherwell still controlling the match. Gary Kenneth trying to see | 0:27:26 | 0:27:36 | |
0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | ||
the ball out. Penalty. That is an easy call for Steven MacLean. Gary | 0:27:38 | 0:27:42 | |
Kenneth trying to use his size and strength to keep it away and has | 0:27:42 | 0:27:47 | |
conceded the spot kick. He had cover behind him. Michael Higdon | 0:27:47 | 0:27:55 | |
with a chance. An aborted dive by the goalkeeper. He knew he had gone | 0:27:55 | 0:28:01 | |
the wrong way. Simple penalty from Michael Higdon after 64 minutes. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:11 | |
0:28:11 | 0:28:11 | ||
Motherwell are thrilled. 3-0 lead for Motherwell. How do United's | 0:28:11 | 0:28:21 | |
respond? Smile on the face of the goalkeeper. I think he has faced | 0:28:21 | 0:28:29 | |
several of these in training. Stephen two decks and. That could | 0:28:29 | 0:28:36 | |
come back for Jon Daly. Jon Daly squeezes it in. Bringing Dundee | 0:28:36 | 0:28:45 | |
United back to life. Dixon always good at these times of runs. Good | 0:28:45 | 0:28:55 | |
0:28:55 | 0:29:08 | ||
finish. With 13 minutes to go, it runs off the face of clany. One or | 0:29:08 | 0:29:17 | |
two shoots for hand ball. Seemed to two shoots for hand ball. Seemed to | 0:29:17 | 0:29:21 | |
come off his body. Higdon was getting stick from the Motherwell | 0:29:21 | 0:29:28 | |
boo brigade, so those goals will do him some good. I think this one was | 0:29:28 | 0:29:34 | |
gift wrapped from Pernis. Good keeper errors I would say. One with | 0:29:34 | 0:29:39 | |
the boot and one with the hand. Higdon he is a regular for a team | 0:29:39 | 0:29:45 | |
that is third in the league and the Motherwell supporters will be a bit | 0:29:45 | 0:29:50 | |
harsh on him. They will be harsh on you if you call them third in the | 0:29:50 | 0:29:55 | |
league. They're second at the moment? He did that regularly for | 0:29:55 | 0:29:59 | |
St Mirren and maybe with more confidence he will weigh in with | 0:29:59 | 0:30:06 | |
the goals? We watched him a few times, we were going to go for him | 0:30:06 | 0:30:11 | |
or John Sutton. But we picked Sutton. He is a big strong striker, | 0:30:12 | 0:30:17 | |
he is difficult to mark and he is scoring. I'm sure Stuart's very | 0:30:17 | 0:30:23 | |
happy with him. Ten games, 19 points, Motherwell and your next | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
opponents after the international break. Yes we played them the other | 0:30:26 | 0:30:30 | |
week in the League Cup at Fir Park and it was an exciting game. It | 0:30:30 | 0:30:36 | |
could have been a game that ended in 6-6. I don't think defences were | 0:30:36 | 0:30:41 | |
on top. When you look at a lot of games this season, there have been | 0:30:41 | 0:30:46 | |
chances missed and you know we got through that night. And it gave us | 0:30:46 | 0:30:50 | |
confidence. And obviously they're playing well and I have seen them a | 0:30:50 | 0:30:54 | |
few times, they're a good side. So we will have to continue our | 0:30:54 | 0:31:00 | |
progress. Peter Houston said they didn't deserve anything from the | 0:31:00 | 0:31:05 | |
game. But they should have had a penalty. It was a ppblty, when you | 0:31:05 | 0:31:10 | |
consider the penalty St Mirren got against Kilmarnock last week and | 0:31:10 | 0:31:17 | |
they're denied that. Peter likes a pie or three after the game, but | 0:31:17 | 0:31:22 | |
that would have dented his appetite. At Rugby Park the meeting 06 | 0:31:22 | 0:31:28 | |
Kilmarnock and St Johnston who have had most of their success on the | 0:31:28 | 0:31:38 | |
0:31:38 | 0:32:05 | ||
had most of their success on the Stephen aner e Der son was | 0:32:05 | 0:32:10 | |
Pennellised -- Anderson was penalised for holding back the | 0:32:10 | 0:32:18 | |
player. This could be an opportunity. It is knocked behind. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:24 | |
Dave Mackay has taken a sore one in the process. Shiels didn't look | 0:32:24 | 0:32:34 | |
favourite to get there, but he did and forced the save from Enckelman. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:41 | |
Pace from Sheridan and a good shot. A fine save and a block from | 0:32:41 | 0:32:45 | |
Craig's effort. That was confident play from Sheridan. Almost the | 0:32:45 | 0:32:55 | |
0:32:55 | 0:33:02 | ||
and it has gone St Johnston's way. A fine finish from a man in form. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:10 | |
Just poked through by Robertson and slotted beyond Bell. Pascali just | 0:33:10 | 0:33:20 | |
0:33:20 | 0:33:23 | ||
committed himself and exposed the needed to be on the line. Or else | 0:33:24 | 0:33:29 | |
they may have had an equaliser. Enckelman not covering himself in | 0:33:29 | 0:33:39 | |
0:33:39 | 0:33:40 | ||
glory there. Kilmarnock stepping up the search for an equaliser. What a | 0:33:40 | 0:33:46 | |
tkperoshes effort that was. -- ferocious effort that was. This one | 0:33:46 | 0:33:55 | |
didn't look on, but Enckelman wasn't getting there. Kilmarnock | 0:33:55 | 0:34:04 | |
looking far more positive now. Heifer Nan deflected wide. -- | 0:34:04 | 0:34:13 | |
Heffernan deflected wide. Purposeful play by the striker. St | 0:34:13 | 0:34:23 | |
0:34:23 | 0:34:28 | ||
Johnstone have barely been in it wrists there by the keeper. Once | 0:34:28 | 0:34:36 | |
again Heffernan denied. It loops over the defender and away and | 0:34:36 | 0:34:42 | |
Kilmarnock do have the equaliser. Pascali claims it. I think this | 0:34:42 | 0:34:47 | |
will go down as an own goal off Steven Anderson. Nothing Craig | 0:34:47 | 0:34:53 | |
could do about it on the line. Enckelman too stranded. That is an | 0:34:54 | 0:35:00 | |
Anderson own goal. Heffernan is a thorn in the side of the St | 0:35:00 | 0:35:04 | |
Johnstone side. He may have been better taking that first time on | 0:35:05 | 0:35:14 | |
0:35:15 | 0:35:18 | ||
his left. Enckelman saved well. Kilmarnock picking up where they | 0:35:18 | 0:35:25 | |
left off at the end of the first half. There is Fowler. He may feel | 0:35:26 | 0:35:35 | |
0:35:36 | 0:35:36 | ||
he should have lit the target. It was a great block from Davidson. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:42 | |
Neatly by the Kilmarnock front men. Enckelman again equal to it. He has | 0:35:42 | 0:35:47 | |
got eight for the season Heffernan. What does he have to do to make it | 0:35:47 | 0:35:57 | |
0:35:57 | 0:36:08 | ||
from Bell. Poor marking, good header. Enckelman taking no chances. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:14 | |
Sissoko takes one and he lets St Johnstone in. Sheridan, can he | 0:36:14 | 0:36:21 | |
score? He can and St Johnstone back in front. And Sheridan makes it | 0:36:21 | 0:36:30 | |
four goals in three games. A cool finish after Sissoko's error. And | 0:36:30 | 0:36:40 | |
0:36:40 | 0:36:48 | ||
the Saints lead at Rugby Park. save by Cammy Bell. Almost his | 0:36:48 | 0:36:53 | |
save by Cammy Bell. Almost his second of the afternoon. BT A lot | 0:36:53 | 0:36:59 | |
has been made of the SAS partnership and they do link well | 0:36:59 | 0:37:03 | |
together. I think Derek has been looking for a partnership for a | 0:37:03 | 0:37:08 | |
while and I have seen them twice in the last week and they have been a | 0:37:08 | 0:37:14 | |
handful both times. Good movement, both strong. Both got good skill | 0:37:14 | 0:37:19 | |
and scoring goals. Appreciated by the management. The connection | 0:37:19 | 0:37:24 | |
between two goals were they were both from defensive errors, but the | 0:37:24 | 0:37:30 | |
finishing was clinical. It I like Gary Connor's finish against Dundee | 0:37:30 | 0:37:36 | |
United on his left from a bad angle. But he has done well there. He got | 0:37:36 | 0:37:42 | |
the goal against Heart and he is in good form. It is four in three for | 0:37:42 | 0:37:48 | |
Sheridan and those are good raish owes. When you have a good | 0:37:48 | 0:37:51 | |
partnership, while one is occupying the defence, the other is stealing | 0:37:51 | 0:37:57 | |
in to score. Yes it works. At the end of the season, St Johnstone | 0:37:57 | 0:38:02 | |
were struggling to score. Against us the other night they could have | 0:38:03 | 0:38:07 | |
scored another two or Three goals and so could we. But they're | 0:38:07 | 0:38:12 | |
dangerous and lively. There demois panic listen they get into a | 0:38:12 | 0:38:17 | |
scoring -- tr is -- there is no panic when they get into a scoring | 0:38:17 | 0:38:22 | |
position. Ian Murray was there and I don't think he would be happy | 0:38:22 | 0:38:28 | |
with that. Nor with that. A dodgy bit of facial hair. That is why the | 0:38:28 | 0:38:34 | |
centre halfs are keeping away from him. St Johnstone happy with a | 0:38:34 | 0:38:38 | |
share of fourth. 11 of their points have come on the road. Yes I think | 0:38:38 | 0:38:43 | |
on Wednesday it was the first goal they had lost away from home at | 0:38:43 | 0:38:47 | |
Easter Road. They're a good side and play good football. I have | 0:38:47 | 0:38:53 | |
watched them two or three times and they're a hard team to may against. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:57 | |
They're going to do well this season. I think we can assume | 0:38:57 | 0:39:03 | |
Aberdeen are fans of Friday night football after what happened | 0:39:03 | 0:39:08 | |
football after what happened against Dunfermline at Pittodrie. | 0:39:08 | 0:39:14 | |
And so the Friday Night Project begins and there will be plenty of | 0:39:14 | 0:39:19 | |
applause from the crowd at Pittodrie. Vernon putting the home | 0:39:19 | 0:39:24 | |
side ahead in the sixth minute. Foster with the cross, poor | 0:39:24 | 0:39:30 | |
defending and Vernon's header too strong for Paul Gallagher. It was | 0:39:30 | 0:39:37 | |
one way red coloured traffic and Dunfermline had a header wide. But | 0:39:37 | 0:39:46 | |
Foster would terrorise the Pars all night. So would Vernon. All | 0:39:46 | 0:39:54 | |
Gallacher keeping Aberdeen out. A long throw was partially repelled, | 0:39:54 | 0:40:01 | |
but his follow up cross found Vernon with the final touch, | 0:40:01 | 0:40:06 | |
probably from an offside position. But it stood and Aberdeen 2-0 in | 0:40:06 | 0:40:13 | |
front. Foster and Vernon combined to set up Fraser Fyvie for his | 0:40:14 | 0:40:19 | |
first goal since returning from injury. Aberdeen 3-0 up on the | 0:40:19 | 0:40:28 | |
stroke of half time. Friday night football not doing down so well for | 0:40:28 | 0:40:35 | |
Jim McIntyre. In the second half the one way traffic continued. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:44 | |
Arnson hit the post. And Fallon should have scored. A John porter | 0:40:44 | 0:40:49 | |
mistake then let in Vernon for his hat trickment but Gallagher | 0:40:49 | 0:40:54 | |
produced a fine save. And then there was ver none to claim his hat | 0:40:54 | 0:40:59 | |
trick. Give whran the season has served up -- given what the serve | 0:40:59 | 0:41:04 | |
has serve up so far, a remarkable has serve up so far, a remarkable | 0:41:04 | 0:41:10 | |
four nil victory. Are you a fine fan of Friday night football, or | 0:41:10 | 0:41:16 | |
will it interfere with your drink. Well if it gets a crowd in, it is | 0:41:16 | 0:41:19 | |
worth trying. I don't know if Dunfermline will vote for it. We | 0:41:19 | 0:41:24 | |
proposed it at Kilmarnock, but I don't think the police were happy | 0:41:24 | 0:41:31 | |
about it. I don't know if Friday night rates come in for over time. | 0:41:31 | 0:41:35 | |
Anything is worth trying. If we can improve the number that come to the | 0:41:35 | 0:41:41 | |
games. I think we should have a go. Myself, you're right, that is my | 0:41:41 | 0:41:47 | |
only night out. Aberdeen are behind it, that was an important win you | 0:41:47 | 0:41:51 | |
would imagine. And for Scott Vernon who has scored for them last season | 0:41:51 | 0:41:56 | |
with Maguire as a partner. And this is what he does so well. I think if | 0:41:56 | 0:42:00 | |
you play him up front on his own, it doesn't suit him. He is not the | 0:42:00 | 0:42:06 | |
quickest F you get the ball in the box and get it in the air, he will | 0:42:06 | 0:42:13 | |
attack them. And he is dangerous. You know, I think he needs a | 0:42:13 | 0:42:19 | |
partner beside him. So threfr signed Fallon and we have been | 0:42:19 | 0:42:24 | |
talking about partnerships, maybe that is giving him more freedom. | 0:42:24 | 0:42:28 | |
Yes I lope they don't click too well. They're in the same position | 0:42:28 | 0:42:36 | |
as us in the league. Not wishing anything afternoony and Craig, I | 0:42:36 | 0:42:40 | |
hope they're not as good. reality dawning for Dunfermline? | 0:42:40 | 0:42:47 | |
They are a point off the boot Tom - ebottom. It will be tough. But | 0:42:47 | 0:42:51 | |
maybe it will be tight as well? whole league is tight. There is not | 0:42:52 | 0:42:55 | |
lot between the teams. They have lost eight goals in two games. I | 0:42:56 | 0:42:59 | |
think that, I was talking to Jim today and they could have lost more | 0:42:59 | 0:43:04 | |
goals on Friday. I think their keeper had four saifrs. So I mean | 0:43:04 | 0:43:09 | |
it was always going to be tough. You come up a league and you don't | 0:43:09 | 0:43:12 | |
sail into it. But they have got a lot of lad there is a will fight | 0:43:12 | 0:43:22 | |
0:43:22 | 0:43:52 | ||
for them. I think they will do OK. You can see SPL highlights online | 0:43:52 | 0:43:57 | |
