It is unbelievable. It is a spectacular opening goal in the

Derby. The shop is an absolute beauty. Is this a bit of history? It

is. What a finish! That is it. It has been one of the most

significant weekends An action-packed edition

of Sportscene tonight as we arrive Championship and Petrofac

final highlights as well. Plus Stuart McCall at the big screen

and Michael Stewart is here as well. We start with a Friday night

match at Tynecastle. Second versus third,

Aberdeen aiming to narrow the gap on Celtic to two points with

the champions playing on Saturday. Hearts still aiming to pip Aberdeen

for second place. Despite the much publicised bout

that swept through the squad, there is just one change from last

weekend. Aberdeen will feel they must win to keep their title

challenge on track. Willo Flood drops to the bench and is replaced

by 20-year-old Craig Stone. It is an anticipated match with third hosting

second. Sam Nicholson within a whisker of giving Hearts and early

lead. Aberdeen's defence did not deal particularly well with the

danger, but survived. Four minutes in and it is a dream

start for the Dons, Simon Church with his sixth goal of the season.

What a precious one it could turn out to be in the context of the

season. Nice football from Aberdeen. Church is onside. No problem with

the finish either. The Dons go ahead at Tynecastle. A really good spell

from Aberdeen. A great chance for Niall McGinn. He knows it should be

2-0. It was a great delivery, not a great finish. Two things for Robbie

Neilson to change. Augustyn's header just could not

quite squeeze over the line. Well dealt with by Aberdeen. Scott Brown

was underneath it. Really good pressure from Hearts.

And Juanma equalises! Hearts are level after 33 minutes. Aberdeen

will not be happy with the space allowed. Juanma was onside. It was

not great goalkeeping. That is one apiece.

Aberdeen are struggling to get the ball out of their own area at the

moment. Everyone has switched off, but the

ball is still in play. Another great chance for Niall

McGinn goes begging. He could have had a couple. That header should be

finding the back of the net. Taylor getting into a bit of trouble

there. He might require a bit of treatment.

A great cross and a great header and a great goal for Hearts as they come

from behind to take a 2-1 lead. It is an ecstatic Tynecastle. Aberdeen

will be furious with themselves. Poor defending, but nothing wrong

with their header from Juanma. It was a brilliant cross from Jamie

Walker. Again Niall McGinn was there.

another night he could have had a hat-trick.

Hearts should be able to see this out in the dying seconds. There goes

the final whistle. Derek McInnis is deflated and defeated. His title bid

is damaged now by a 2-1 defeat at Tynecastle. It is a huge result. If

we did not win, we would be looking to try and consolidate third place

and now we can try and catch up Aberdeen who are having a great

season. They will be trying to stop Celtic, so they will still be going

hard. Where does this leave things in terms of the title? It is gone

for us now I would imagine. We have got to make sure we get back to

basics and C of the threat from Hearts first and foremost. But in

terms of five games to go, at this stage of the season Celtic can only

throw it away. I would not expect them to know.

Where did it go so wrong for Aberdeen after a great start? It was

a great chance and there were a glut of chances for Aberdeen and they

ended up paying the price for missing them. Hearts came back into

the game and scored the two goals. Aberdeen will be disappointed

because they were the architects of their own downfall. It was a great

result for Hearts, but Aberdeen the architects of their own downfall. Is

that a fair comment? The team will be frustrated in the manner that

they came. We will look at the two goals conceded. The first one was a

build-up from Hearts. Aberdeen are in good positions and their back

four are nice and compact. The midfield four are in good positions

and Kenny Maclean, playing Number Ten, came back to give a hand. But

credit has to go to Hearts. Augustyn takes responsibility and comes into

the middle of the park. They need a goal. But when a centre-half comes

in it is normally the job of the Number Ten to be the one who

confronts him and goes over and stopped him in is forward roll

coming forward. That does not happen. We know what he can do from

there. From that you are thinking, happen. We know what he can do from

the keeper should be OK. Last season he fired a cracker in. But look at

Juanma and the two defenders. He gets his just rewards. It is a

goalkeeping error as well. A couple of mistakes, but take nothing away

from Hearts. At this point Tynecastle is rocking. It certainly

was. Hearts got the impetus after that goal and they carried it

was. Hearts got the impetus after through into the second half. In

terms of the second goal, how disappointed should Aberdeen be?

Hugely. It was a bit unfortunate as well. Aberdeen want to win the game.

Maclean does not see what is happening with Taylor. He sees Logan

making a run. But from then on that is when the problem starts. Hires go

over and take the situation by the hand. It was not so much the free

kick, it was well intentioned, it is the reaction after it. He drifts

into the midfield area, but he has got to be more aware that the guys

at the back are exposed. If he holds his position and waits for his

team-mates to get back into position, they would not be so

exposed. She only went over to start stretching Taylor when the ball was

in play. Leave his man and get back in position and help the guys at the

back and they were exposed and they paid the price. Taylor normally

would be there on the right hand side covering over there. Graeme

Shinni would be on the cover there and they would be happy with that.

But because of this unfortunate and they would be happy with that.

situation, it has not been the case. There is a big hole in behind with

Willo Flood. It is a good ball into the space. Reynolds has to decide

whether to try and cut it out and leave Juanma, which he does. I have

whether to try and cut it out and got to say Walker and Juanma

constructed that go together and in the second half they were a good

the second half they were a good combination.

So, to Fir Park for the Saturday lunchtime game.

Celtic with the chance to stretch their lead

over Aberdeen to a point if they could beat Motherwell.

Mark McGhee can send out the same 11 as they chase a sixth win in a row.

For Motherwell team that looked like it would be battling the drop a few

weeks back. Charlie Mulgrew is in an Kazim-Richards is replacing Gary

Mackay-Steven. Griffiths! We know he is capable

from that kind of distance. Motherwell inflicted Celtic's only

home league defeat on them in December. They have won a penalty.

After Aberdeen's defeat on Friday evening, Celtic know they can be

eight clear by the close of business today. Griffiths has put it past!

The mini goal drought continues for Leigh Griffiths.

He has got options right and left. He chooses Griffiths. And it is

Conor Ripley again. Motherwell were sliced open on the counterattack.

Conor Ripley is having a good game. That was Kazim-Richards. And it is

Conor Ripley again. A fine afternoon the on loan Middlesbrough keeper is

having. Celtic have been scintillating in this first half.

Kieran Tierney is the latest to sting the palms of Conor Ripley.

Quite how Celtic are not ahead is anyone's guess. That was Roberts.

Ripley is a busy boy. They have done everything but score

in the first half, the champions. Griffiths! The resistance finally

fades right on half-time. Leigh Griffiths scoring goal number

36 of the season just before the interval. Had not scored in three

Celtic games coming into this. McDonald puts it in, but it is

offside. Motherwell's best passing move of the game.

It is so tight. He has the better of Tierney. McDonald! The former Celtic

striker has levelled proceedings in a game Motherwell scarcely deserved

to be levelling. Just the one point would do Motherwell with regards to

top six. Griffiths! It has gone through Ripley. From hero to

villain. Corner Ripley lets that trundle squirms through them.

Griffiths is on a hat-trick. He has pickpocketed Keane and Kennedy.

Ripley redeems himself for now at least. Celtic march towards five in

a row. A few words exchanged at the end.

What happened? At the beginning of the game I felt as if when I went to

shake hands with the Celtic staff they blanked me. I have spoken to

Ronnie and it was a 100% misunderstanding on my part and I

accept totally that he did not see me. That is fine. We have shook

hands and it is fine. The most important thing is that three

points. We had to hang on. The first half we had plenty of chances and

did not take them and missed a penalty and the keeper had good

saves. At 1-0 it is always uncomfortable. We showed great

character to get the second goal back and see the game out. It was

good to see that handshake gate was eventually resolved. Is the title

race is over? I think so. You heard John Kennedy saying the most

important thing was getting that three points and he is spot on.

After Aberdeen's defeat, the title is theirs? Do you agree? Yes. I

think you can concede it. Mark McGhee called it shocking to

disallow the Scott McDonald effort. Was he offside? I do not know. It

was even plastic move by Motherwell with fantastic passing. Initially it

looked a couple of yards offside. It is not a shocking decision. No. It

is frustrating from Mark. I still do not know if he is offside or

on-site. It is definitely a difficult decision for the linesman.

It is marginal. Part of his body is in front of the ball so he is

offside. I can understand why the linesman David because by the time

the ball got to Scott McDonald's feat he is in the six yard box.

Celtic had loads of chances. Griffiths described that as an

Magpie angry performance from himself. He missed a penalty and

then came good. He did. This shows the resilience and his performance.

Frustrated he had not got on the scoresheet earlier. This one nagging

the most. Craig Gordon will be taking penalties. You see the

determination to get up. That is a sprint from inside the box almost to

the box at the other end. He works the goalkeeper on most occasions. To

be disappointed coming away from the game when he has got two goals...

This shows what he is about. That is really composed finish to guide it

into the back of the net. He has nothing to be angry about with two

goals. It shows you how things can change in the game. Ripley did

great, the keeper, and then right at the end it goes through his legs. A

painful moment for Ripley. Motherwell still with a real chance

of getting into Europe. They certainly have. A couple of months

ago they were second bottom. I believe they could be top six

because there might have goal scorers. They have given themselves

such a fantastic chance. Celtic have to win the double for fourth place

and it is between Ross County, St Johnstone and Motherwell.

So the title race looks like it is reaching its conclusion

Next weekend should be very tasty indeed.

Two mouthwatering Scottish Cup semifinal showdowns.

The first is live on Sportscene, 12:10pm Saturday lunchtime,

Live coverage on Sportsound on BBC Radio Scotland.

We'll have all the Old Firm highlights on Sunday night's

Sportscene as always, 10:30pm on BBC One.

Dundee started the day in that much coveted sixth-place spot.

They went to Hamilton needing a win to be guaranteed to keep it.

Dropping points could open the trap door to the bottom

Hamilton need to find Victor Ruiz and be better than at Aberdeen last

week. Morris is back up front. A youngster comes into their Dundee

side -- Wighton. Morris with support from Doherty.

Good saves by Scott Bain. It has been a sluggish start by Dundee.

Gifting it straight back to the hosts. Cause himself! That as they a

touch and it is another Hamilton corner. Plenty behind it. Hamilton

have not won here since mid-September, a shocking run. The

BMA's bowl beat Motherwell that day. Crawford! A massive goal for

Hamilton. They look to stave off the threat of the relegation zone.

Crawford's first goal since January, the beginning of January, and it

could be priceless. That could be a the beginning of January, and it

penalty. It is. John B ten points to the spot. Tena! 2-0. What a first

half for Martin Canning's team. A great penalty from the centre-half.

Dundee's top six hawks are hanging by a thread. A draw might not be

enough. They are a long way behind in Lanarkshire. That is Scott Bain.

The recent Scotland squad call-up. A great following down from the City

of discovery but it has been nothing but pain and anguish for the Dundee

supporters. Hamilton continuing to but pain and anguish for the Dundee

pound the defence. It has been all Hamilton. One of their best

performances of the season. He has scored from free kicks from that

kind of distance before, Tena, who got Hamilton's second today.

kind of distance before, Tena, who Harkins. No handball. Brilliant!

Great goal from the half-time substitute. Hemmings with the ball

but it was all about the clever finish from Harkins. Dundee are back

in this. Harkins brought down by McKinnon. As usual he was not happy

about it. Dundee have a good opportunity to swing this in. Plenty

up for it. Headed down by Conrad. The government is equal to it.

Dundee's top six hopes look like they lie in tatters. First half we

were excellent. We should have taken more opportunities. The second half

they came back into the game. We showed spirit to make sure we hung

on which is something that has been lacking of late but we are back to

winning at home. I do not then be performed especially the first 45

minutes, compared to the standards we have said. We have to regroup and

tried to finish as high as possible. You can see the disappointment on

Paul Hartley's says. For Dundee, drawing too many games. Is that the

problem? No doubt. They have drawn I think 14 and won nine, similar to

Hamilton who are in the relegation play-off spot. They have not managed

to convert enough of those draws into wins. Inconsistency. They are

capable of challenging at the top but have not been able to get as

many wins as they needed to get in the top six. A massive win for

Hamilton. A much-needed Holm win for Hamilton. They have not done that in

a while. He has done well in the latter part of the season. He is a

physical presence, a good talent. He has been used as a substitute but he

has forced himself into the side. Through his tenacity and endeavour

he wins a penalty kick. I think it is September the last time Hamilton

won. A massive boost for them. Hamilton have a fight on their hands

but a great time for them to get a victory. Their first home win since

September, much-needed. The Dundee result meant that a win

for either Ross County or Partick Thistle would see them

into the top half. Indeed a draw would be

good enough for Thistle. Four changes for Ross County after

losing 5-2 at Dundee. Four changes to the Thistle team which beat

Dundee United in midweek. Already a special season for the Dingwall team

Corinth, with the top six finish adding to the glorious League Cup

success. Scoring inside 14 minutes. He has developed the happy habit of

scoring important goals for Ross County and this is another one.

Partick Thistle backed off and let him have the chance and he snapped

up the opportunity. Schalk chasing and getting the better of Seaborn.

Gary Miller at the back made the important blocks Partick Thistle who

did not fancy going two goals behind. Calum Best charging forward,

having signed a new deal with the soul. -- Partick Thistle. Good

effort. The Australian midfielder on target but a solid save from Scott

Fox, the former Thistle keeper. Again, Schalk the target. Very

easily picked out. That was mightily close to a second goal. He was

struggling to be fit to play today because of illness, Schalk, but he

is having a big impact in the game. A good header. Scott Fox returning

to the county team after a long injury absence and makes a good save

to deny him. That was a great chance for Callum

Booth, but outcomes Scott Fox to make the save.

Schalk was threatening again and then Scully was solidly behind the

shot this time. Schalk has put in some shift here for Ross County who

remain 1-0 in front. Chris Doolin!. The shot in the end

was pretty much straight at the goalkeeper and it was scrambled

away. That was a chance for Partick Thistle to level things up. It was

an absolute crap out there and Partick Thistle put us under a lot

of pressure, but I thought we defended stoutly. We were throwing

bodies on the line. It summed up typically by Alex Schalk who was ill

this week and I spoke to him this morning and he said he would

struggle to play, but I told him he was playing and I said, give us a

good hour and he gave us more than that. That is the biggest

disappointment. We had a chance to do it. It is hard when you put the

lads up, they have done well so far. Ross County get the League Cup and

the top six as well which is one of their main objectives. As Jim

McIntyre said, he took Schalk off his sick bed and he said he did not

have to play, he had to play and he made all the difference. He has

impressed since he came into Ross County and yesterday was another top

performance and he picked up another goal. He has scored eight goals

since the turn of the year which is a great return. It is not just his

goals, it is his all-round play, he links the goals up very well. I am

pretty sure he will be doing that in the split fixtures as well. Ross

County have got a lot to play for in the split as well. And Schalk has

made such a difference, but with Jim McIntyre he has got to have the

credentials for a Manager of the Year. He has got a trophy and a top

six finish. A strong contender. It depends who picks up the cut at the

end of the season. At the beginning of the season he recruited really

well and he has done a terrific job. And Partick Thistle and up in the

well and he has done a terrific job. bottom six. At the beginning of the

season they were at the bottom of the league. They could not score

many goals. They beat United during the week. They had a couple of

opportunities but did not take them. They had the chance to be top six,

but overall a decent season. Have they exceeded expectations? I do not

know if it is exceeding expectations, but because they have

got themselves into that position, they will be disappointed, but a lot

Kilmarnock are still without a win under new manager Lee Clark.

He welcomed the visit of his former Newcastle team-mate Tommy Wright

whose St Johnstone side were looking to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat

December the 5th was the last time Kris Boyd had scored a goal. After

20 minutes of this game that almost change. Boyd was denied by the post.

The move gave Kilmarnock a lift. Just a couple of minutes later there

was a yellow card for Darnell Fisher. It could have been worse.

And it soon was for Saints. A huge moment for Kris Boyd as he fired

Kilmarnock into a 1-0 lead. A sense of relief at Rugby Park. Could St

Johnstone respond? Danny Swanson set up Ian McRae, Jamie McDonald with a

one-handed save. After a Kris Boyd header, Kilmarnock almost made it

2-0. But the effort was ruled out for offside. Just before half-time

Josh Magennis was denied a goal. Not the scoreline Tommy Wright was

looking for. It was about to get worse for the Perth side. Josh

Magennis would supply the cross. And there was Callum Higginbotham with

the header. Less than sound St Johnstone defending. The Saints did

have chances, Liam Craig perhaps a touch unfortunate seeing his headed

effort ruled out for pushing. The Bulgarian defender was then denied

by the ever excellent Jamie McDonald. And St Johnstone would

carve out another big chance which fell to the foot of Chris Miller.

Again McDonald to the rescue for Kilmarnock. At just the right time

Kilmarnock finally figured out that route to good this season and

McKenzie was felled in the box. It gave Kris Boyd the chance to wrap up

all three points. A vital first win for the Kilmarnock manager. I said

all along we have played well enough, we have not had the luck, we

have created opportunities. Today we scored three and we could have

scored six or seven. We have dealt with everything that has been heard

at us and we have got top six again and we will recover and hopefully go

in the split and the fourth place is and we will recover and hopefully go

very much up for grabs for the three teams in fourth, fifth and sixth.

Despite the defeat they are still in the top six once again, but it is

that enigma, Kris Boyd with only three goals and suddenly he gets two

goals and a first win for manager Lee Clark. It is a good time for

Kris Boyd to come good and Lee Clark will be delighted. These clips

highlight what he is all about. He wants to get into areas that will

hurt the opposition and drive forward and commit defenders. He

drives an in between the posts and that is where a lot of strikers get

tap ins. He has not done enough of that this season for Kilmarnock. But

to get two goals and three points for his side is a vital time as

well. You can see how delighted he is. He was wondering at 32 if he had

run his race, but he has always got that instinct. He will be

disappointed he has not played that much this season and has not scored

so many goals. He was unfortunate much this season and has not scored

not to have a hat-trick. He will be crucial because they are still in a

precarious position, but it will do his confidence good and Kilmarnock

as well. A tough couple of weeks for St Johnstone and you have to look at

fourth place and the possibility of Europe as well. Mackay has been a

big miss for them, but they have got as most chance as Motherwell and

Ross County of the fourth. It is that to aim for. It is a good

achievement for St Johnstone. They have lost O'Halloran and they are

still in the top half of the table. Continually to end up in the top six

year after year is a huge achievement for them.

Dundee United had beaten St Johnstone last weekend.

But they had then lost to Partick Thistle midweek.

They started the weekend five points adrift at the bottom.

Inverness Caley Thistle were the visitors at Tannadice.

Before the game, a minute's applause in tribute to former Dundee United

player Ian Britton and director Derek Robertson who recently

Defeat at Partick Thistle in midweek dealt a blow to United's hopes of

survival. Guy Demel almost started the rescue mission. But defending

like this it is easy to see why United are rooted to the bottom,

Miles Storey allowed a free run on goal. A striker perhaps disbelieving

of the time and space he was afforded. Not to worry, moments

later United would allow him another go. Ross Draper profiting from the

home side's substandard offside trap and he found Miles Storey who did

the rest. And 11th goal of the season for him and perhaps his

easiest of the lot. The United defence seemed unconcerned by the

long-range threat posed by Greg Tansy who called Kawashima into

action with a decent drive. Greg Tansey is more than capable from

such range, a decent save from Kawashima. Inverness were now in the

groove and Greg Tansey slipped in Miles Storey, but the Englishman

passed the chance up for number two. The visitors would put the game to

bed after the break, Iain Vigurs with his smart control and finish. A

third goal in four matches for the midfielder and perhaps a fatal blow

to United's hopes of avoiding the drop. To their credit Mixu

Paatelainen's men refused to give in. They almost found a way back

into the match, only for Williams to deny Kyle Nile from close range. A

rare moment of action for the Caley Thistle keeper. Iain Vigurs almost

got a third at the death, but the job was done for the Highlanders.

For United relegation now looms large. Unfortunately we have had too

many and that is why we are where we are in the league table. Of course

the supporters have every right to criticise us and not be happy

because the performance today was diabolical. Apart from 20 minutes in

the second half we were worthy of the victory. We could have got more

goals, it is a difficult venue to come and play football, but a

massive three points. What a difference a week can make. Dundee

United beat St Johnstone last week and everybody talking about them

getting out of the position they are in, but now I they finished? Yes, I

think so. Last week I was talking about them putting themselves in a

great position, a great opportunity to get out of the play-off spots,

never mind relegation. The two defeats in a week has dealt that

chance huge blow. Ultimately you see a lot of these clips and they had

chances and they did not convert them. That was during the week

against Partick Thistle as well. Lots of opportunities, but they were

not able to convert. Mixu Paatelainen described it as

diabolical. The fans must be so angry. Defensively they have been

poor. They have changed from a back three to back four to stop it, but

they are just not good enough. How big will the changes have to be next

season? The club have said themselves they will be a lot of

changes and the guys they have brought in will be out of contract

in the summer. They gambled a bit and brought a lot of money in, so

look at the number of guys out of contract and there will be wholesale

changes. It was a good win for Inverness Caley Thistle. The group

went out Highlands, it has been an odd season for them. Look at the

players they have lost, Mackay, shimmy, Christie. Not only that they

have been hampered with injuries. Warren has been out for a long time.

They will be disappointed not to get into the top six, but deep down

there are reasons for that and they have done fine. They will want to

finish with a flourish, but it has been tough for them and they have

set their standards high. All that leaves the Ladbrokes

Premiership table looking like this. Celtic are eight points clear

of Aberdeen at the top Hearts are nine points behind

Aberdeen with a game in hand. It should be an interesting

fight for fourth place. Dundee and Partick Thistle

are in the bottom six. Big wins for Hamilton

and Kilmarnock. The Championship looms ever

larger for Dundee United. Rangers began their journey

in the lowest tier of Scottish football back in 2012 with a 2-2

draw away to Peterhead. Just days after their promotion

to the Premiership they face Peterhead in the final

of the Petrofac Challenge injury absence and makes a good save

to deny him. Miller Riggins position. It is

turned on. Gilchrist. A horrible moment for the Peterhead defender

who tried to intervene and gave Rangers the lead. It has been all

Rangers so far. Peterhead once again cannot clear their lines. Brilliant

from Tavernier. There's stadium has seen some special goals down the

years and that is as good as the rest. Driving into the penalty area

and he is brought down. Penalty kick. Stephen Noble complains about

the decision. He had a couple of no balls outside the box. The referee

the decision. He had a couple of no judged at a foul. 3-0 to Rangers,

and surely their name is on the trophy. A confident penalty. Rangers

flooding forward looking to add some gloss in the closing stages. Shields

just misses. Miller! Kenny Miller makes it 4-0. It rounds off what has

been a comfortable day for Rangers. There would have been moments when

they. They would not get their hands on the trophy but Rangers finally

lift the Challenge Cup and bring to an end a perfect week for Mark were

lift the Challenge Cup and bring to bitten's men. What were your

thoughts? An emphatic victory. Yes. The way they dispatched Peterhead

gives them a lot of Hibs and Falkirk still

jostling for second place. The Easter Road side away to Alloa,

while Falkirk hosted St Mirren. After a draw and he defeats in their

last two games Falkirk were looking to regain their positive momentum

against St Mirren and made the perfect start with Miller opening

the scoring in the ninth minute. 1-0 is how it stayed until early in the

second half when Mallon equalised. An expertly taken free kick. Falkirk

responded. Alston with the cross. Michu with the header. 2-1. With

eight minutes left St Mirren produced a great move which was

finished off by Mallon. The 20-year-old with his 13th goal of

the season. Last month Falkirk beat Rangers 3-2 with a dramatic 90th

minute winner and would do it again, this time against St Mirren, Alston

with the goal, to send the beer and sold very happy indeed. -- Bairns. A

great advert for the Championship. A great game of football. We deserved

the three points. We put a lot into the game and we were disappointed in

the manner in which we lost. Hibs aiming to get back on the straight

and narrow at Alloa. Keating is with the shot saved. Stalks' header

summed things up as far as heads are concerned. Alloa would compound the

misery. This cross the line. Delight for Alloa. Nothing going the way of

Hibs right now. Alan Stubbs' side had all of the second half to make

amends. Just off target year. From Liam Henderson's cross, David Gray

almost capitalised. Stalks was denied by the substitute goalkeeper

David Crawford. Next for Hibs was the substitute Martin Boyle. The

Alloa goal remained intact. In the end, Duffy might have had the second

Alloa goal remained intact. In the for Alloa. Hibs with one win from

their last seven Championship matches. We have played well on a

number of occasions without really getting an award so I was delighted

for the players to get something tangible. Today was not good enough,

simple as that. We have got a big game on Tuesday to look forward to.

I will be looking for a response. Hence poor run continues.

Congratulations to Raith Rovers who have sealed their place in the

play-offs. Tuesday night at Easter Road Hibs take on Falkirk. Will that

determine who finishes second? It will have a big bearing. Hibs have a

lot of big games coming up and have to quickly get a reaction. Alan

Stubbs will be looking for one. Getting a victory against Falkirk

would be a great way to lead into the Cup semifinal but they will not

be going in with a great deal of confidence. Do you see Falkirk as

favourites? Possibly. They or on a good run.

That's almost it for tonight but if you simply haven't had

enough of Michael Stewart, you're luck's in!

He's back on your screens next weekend in a boat.

A little bit of frustration. A trip that we did in the summer travelling

up the West Coast re-enacting a journey that the guys did in the

1930s and unfortunately ended up with a snapped paddle. Losing

patience. No red card. Fortunately no referees.

Michael Stewart up a creek without a paddle.
