:00:15. > :00:30.Good afternoon. Welcome to the results show. Looking for the

:00:31. > :00:40.tennis? BBC Two. No dead rubbers here. We have reporters, from around

:00:41. > :00:56.the country. Anyone for headlines? We can start at Ibrox, Rangers at

:00:57. > :01:07.home to Ross County. No Joey Barton as he was told to stay away. No Liam

:01:08. > :01:21.Boyce for County. We can go to McDiarmid Park. 1-0 St Johnstone in

:01:22. > :01:34.the Perth sunshine, Cummins prodded past Hamilton, Hearts dominant but

:01:35. > :01:46.1-0. And Fir Park? Plenty of goals? Yes, Motherwell 4-2. And one name

:01:47. > :01:48.has dominated proceedings, Moult, first start of the season, four

:01:49. > :01:55.goals, low finishes, header, penalty. Crawford has two for

:01:56. > :01:59.Hamilton to stop his side falling adrift. The next is going to be

:02:00. > :02:10.crucial. And we can go to Kilmarnock. Partick Thistle looking

:02:11. > :02:24.to avoid five defeats in a row, four in the league, Boyd opened the

:02:25. > :02:27.scoring. Stevie Lawless equalised, but Coulibaly put Killie 2-1 up. The

:02:28. > :02:42.hero of the Killie fans. Brian is my hero. He is at Easter Road.

:02:43. > :02:59.Cummings put Hibs in front but Balatoni has equalised. We can get

:03:00. > :03:16.some more detail. Yes. Cummins with the goal, against the run of play,

:03:17. > :03:24.some fabulous saves from Nicholson, and as I am talking, Robbie Newson

:03:25. > :03:35.has been sent to the stand. I will give you more news about what has

:03:36. > :03:44.happened. -- Neilson. Remember, Hearts going into this, on three

:03:45. > :03:56.straight wins, not won here on league business since November 2000

:03:57. > :04:06.and ten. And we can find out more about the Moult show at Fir Park?

:04:07. > :04:16.Until today, Motherwell hadn't won since the opening day, low poked

:04:17. > :04:28.effort, header to the back post then another nice finish. But then,

:04:29. > :04:36.Hamilton getting back into it. Brilliant curved shot, 3-1 at

:04:37. > :04:42.half-time. After the break, Motherwell penalty, Moult stepped up

:04:43. > :04:51.confidently. But then, Crawford for Hamilton. It was a lovely way to

:04:52. > :04:59.finish. 4-2. That is the score at the moment. And we can go back to

:05:00. > :05:12.the Championship. Goal involving Hibs and Ayr. Brian? It is a

:05:13. > :05:24.remarkable turnaround. Hibs had led through Cummings, it was a

:05:25. > :05:34.magnificent shot, looked as though it would open up. But then, sending

:05:35. > :05:45.off for Bartley on Adams. And since then, Ayr have come back. Balatoni

:05:46. > :05:50.equalisers, and then Gilmour, from just six yards, slots home. Ayr,

:05:51. > :05:58.2-1. Hibs have won the opening five games. Never won their opening six.

:05:59. > :06:09.It looked as though that was going to be on, not now. And details, of

:06:10. > :06:18.the Ayrshire rivals, Killie at home to Partick Thistle. Leading 2-1. You

:06:19. > :06:22.talk about continuity, that has been a problem but Lee Clark has selected

:06:23. > :06:28.the same starting line-up for the second week. Kris Boyd, getting on

:06:29. > :06:36.the scoresheet, good control, it looked as though he had lost the

:06:37. > :06:48.ball, but back of the net and after that Erskine went close. Doolan had

:06:49. > :06:58.a shot blocked away by McDonald. 32 minutes, Stevie Lawless got Thistle

:06:59. > :07:05.back on level terms. Lovely touch and turn to pull the Glasgow side

:07:06. > :07:10.back on level terms. Coulibaly had that acrobatic effort last week,

:07:11. > :07:17.causing more problems, alongside Kris Boyd and after 65 minutes, he

:07:18. > :07:23.found the back of the net, header, jumping above everybody to get on

:07:24. > :07:37.the end of the cross. We have played 79 minutes. Plenty of goals but not

:07:38. > :07:47.at Ibrox! 0-0! Rangers, 13 shots, County three. County's Twitter feed

:07:48. > :08:00.said the bus leaves Ibrox at 10am! I have taken a look at the statistics,

:08:01. > :08:06.Rangers bossing the game... No Joey Barton. Holt and Halliday in

:08:07. > :08:14.midfield with Windass. High tempo. But supporters would be expecting to

:08:15. > :08:18.win this? At home, against Ross County, after last weekend and all

:08:19. > :08:23.the controversy, they wanted some resounding success. It is not

:08:24. > :08:35.happening at the moment. They are not going to be happy. This happened

:08:36. > :08:37.last season, Rangers would have possession, not take chances, one of

:08:38. > :08:45.the failings of last season's team. I think Rangers have actually

:08:46. > :08:48.regressed with some of the summer recruitment, the Barton issue, it

:08:49. > :08:57.has been difficult to handle. The manager has to have the respect and

:08:58. > :09:06.authority of the squad, but... Will he be back, Barton? Obviously, he's

:09:07. > :09:11.going to be back on Monday. Will he? Yesterday he gave that radio

:09:12. > :09:15.interview, an authorised by the clock, I think it is a difficult

:09:16. > :09:20.situation but the manager has got to have control of the dressing room so

:09:21. > :09:28.I think it is unlikely that he is going to have a future at Rangers.

:09:29. > :09:32.But he has the two year contract. I just cannot understand, how this has

:09:33. > :09:38.been allowed to happen. I know that social media, we have listened to

:09:39. > :09:46.him so many times but I cannot see readers allowing that to happen.

:09:47. > :09:52.Joey won't stop. Imagine telling him you cannot do social media. I think

:09:53. > :09:57.Mark Warburton, it is huge for him, defining. I know that he wants a

:09:58. > :10:05.positive environment at the dressing room. If that has deteriorated he

:10:06. > :10:10.needs to sort it out. He should also be saying, this is Rangers, almost

:10:11. > :10:15.like Sir Alex Ferguson and Manchester United. But if he does

:10:16. > :10:28.not get this right, he could be undermined. Big moment for Partick

:10:29. > :10:37.Thistle. Drawn level? Free kick, right hand side, eluded everyone.

:10:38. > :10:44.Stramash at the back. Liam Lindsay blasts it in! Partick vessel, back

:10:45. > :10:53.on level terms, less than seven to go. I have to start with the game,

:10:54. > :11:00.without too many goals, St Johnstone and Hearts. This could be huge, but

:11:01. > :11:06.going to St Johnstone, it is so difficult to defeat them at the

:11:07. > :11:09.gamut Park. I suppose if they do not get something back, huge

:11:10. > :11:21.disappointment. They have been going so well. Lots of chances? Zander

:11:22. > :11:29.Clarke in goals. He has made some excellent saves. Opportunities from

:11:30. > :11:35.the first half. And just at the point when St Johnstone scored, I

:11:36. > :11:41.thought that Hearts were on top, getting chances, but St Johnstone

:11:42. > :11:46.scored the goal. As we have said, St Johnstone just do this. I have seen

:11:47. > :11:57.Hearts twice recently, and they have been doing this, finding the way to

:11:58. > :12:00.win, wouldn't rule them out. But Robbie Neilson now watching from the

:12:01. > :12:04.stands. Another controversial Robbie Neilson now watching from the

:12:05. > :12:13.moment. Brought down, outside the box, but Yodel card for simulation.

:12:14. > :12:22.And Tommy Wright had said that Hearts maximise simulation. I

:12:23. > :12:27.thought that he was fouled. As soon as you stick out a leg, I was

:12:28. > :12:34.listening to the radio, talking about the situation, from last week,

:12:35. > :12:48.it was a certain penalty. Definite contact. Definitely too much. The

:12:49. > :13:04.man of the moment at Motherwell, Moult, scored four then substituted?

:13:05. > :13:12.Mark McGhee said it was his first start and would get an hour. Even

:13:13. > :13:17.though he has got four goals, Mark McGhee has got to look at the bigger

:13:18. > :13:24.picture because last season Moult, his goals and Scott Quigg Donald,

:13:25. > :13:32.the Motherwell to the top six. -- Scott McDonald. It is crucial. He

:13:33. > :13:41.lost Johnson, coming back for his first game, four goals, going to be

:13:42. > :13:49.happy tonight. And Crawford scored two crackers but overshadowed?

:13:50. > :13:55.Hamilton's top scorer, I think he has rediscovered his form. And those

:13:56. > :13:58.goals today, right and left foot, expelled finishes, we have been

:13:59. > :14:04.watching and Hamilton have not given even at 4-1, 3-0. That have just

:14:05. > :14:10.kick going. That says a lot about the character. Not going to accept

:14:11. > :14:12.that schooling. It has been entertaining. And plenty of

:14:13. > :14:19.entertainment Last year Partick Thistle won the

:14:20. > :14:24.game handsomely. Different this year. It's a big game and Kilmarnock

:14:25. > :14:32.was one of the favourites to be bottom. 17 signings they've made.

:14:33. > :14:40.Yeah, quite incredible. But you know, by going in at the back, is he

:14:41. > :14:44.on loan? That's a good bit of business, because he needed that

:14:45. > :14:48.consolidation at the back. A good signing for them. They're doing OK.

:14:49. > :14:53.It's going to be a fight down the bottom no matter what. Thistle down,

:14:54. > :14:56.there this is a big result today. Kilmarnock was predictively down

:14:57. > :14:59.there going well. Looks like a fight at the top of the championship as

:15:00. > :15:03.well. We thought it was going to be a procession for Hibs. They were

:15:04. > :15:07.going for their sixth win on the spin, their best ever start to a

:15:08. > :15:12.season. They're 2-1 down to Ayr United. Queen of the South, 3-0 at

:15:13. > :15:16.home to Raith Rovers. They will go top. I don't think it was Queen of

:15:17. > :15:20.the South expecting to challenge Hibs. We thought Dundee United,

:15:21. > :15:23.range Rovers and Falkirk would have continued their form from last

:15:24. > :15:28.season. Queen of the south did this two years ago. They had a tremendous

:15:29. > :15:32.run of form under Jamie Fowler. Maybe the change of management has

:15:33. > :15:37.been enough to kickstart something there. Two goals again today.

:15:38. > :15:40.Stephen Dobie has scored at the highest level. He could probably

:15:41. > :15:43.play in the top flight in Scotland comfortably. He's gone back to a

:15:44. > :15:49.club he knows well. He's responded to that. He's a very good player.

:15:50. > :15:53.It's a blow for Hibs today, not only because they were on a good run.

:15:54. > :15:58.Marvin Bartley has been sent off. That will disrupt the flow of the

:15:59. > :16:05.team. Neil will not be happy that the team surrendered. It's a

:16:06. > :16:09.challenge for them. I don't think the championship will be countered

:16:10. > :16:16.by them. There's enough competitiveness in that team.

:16:17. > :16:23.Dunbarton 1 st, mirn 1. St Mirren haven't won. This was a big result

:16:24. > :16:26.for St Mirren. They'll be hoping to get something and take the pressure

:16:27. > :16:30.off the manager. You don't like to see St Mirren as a team playing in

:16:31. > :16:35.the top flight down at the bottom of the division below. Plenty of drama

:16:36. > :16:38.still this afternoon to come, I believe. Something has happened at

:16:39. > :16:45.Rugby Park. John, can you fill us in, a red card? Yeah, Abdul-0s

:16:46. > :16:50.Mondayed has suffered a -- Osmond has suffered a second yellow card.

:16:51. > :16:55.He was booked after 85 minutes for hauling back Rory McKensey as he

:16:56. > :17:01.movered through the midfield area -- moved through the midfield area.

:17:02. > :17:07.McKenzie was fouled by Osmond by a few seconds. The referee says a

:17:08. > :17:14.second yellow. Off goes Osman, much in disgust. Still 2-2. He's gone off

:17:15. > :17:18.in disgust. Pat, but one would think a draw for par tick thist alway from

:17:19. > :17:23.home is decent given there are three defeats on the spin. Absolutely a

:17:24. > :17:25.huge result for them today. They need something to get them going

:17:26. > :17:30.again. This one is important away from home. Absolutely. It's going to

:17:31. > :17:34.be tough in the last period now with that down to ten men. The thing

:17:35. > :17:38.about thistle is I saw them recently against Hearts. They're playing very

:17:39. > :17:40.well. They played lovely football at home against Hearts. Ultimately they

:17:41. > :17:47.lost that game. They're playing well. Maybe the final - The thing

:17:48. > :17:53.about Thist ill is that they play -- thistle, is that they play great

:17:54. > :17:58.football. It's the defending unit. Hamilton with r playing well this

:17:59. > :18:05.afternoon. Mother well in the derby, let's head to Fir Park, it's

:18:06. > :18:09.full-time. Alley Crawford on the losing side, even scoring two goals

:18:10. > :18:14.today. Let's get the details. Yes, the last time Motherwell and

:18:15. > :18:24.Hamilton met at Fir Park there were six goals. 3-3 that day. Today a 4

:18:25. > :18:31.pave 2 win for Motherwell. They have Moult to thank for that. He has the

:18:32. > :18:39.match ball in his arms. He's recovered from a groin injury.

:18:40. > :18:45.Cruising, two low finishes from the 24-year-old Englishman and a header

:18:46. > :18:51.as well. Hamilton change r changed to 3-5-2. A brilliant finish into

:18:52. > :18:57.the far corner from Crawford. Motherwell got the three-goal lead

:18:58. > :19:01.again from a penalty. Ryan Bowman was brought down. It looked to be

:19:02. > :19:07.comfortable. The Motherwell manager said before the game, Hamilton do

:19:08. > :19:12.not give up. They didn't give up. Especially Ally Crawford. He made it

:19:13. > :19:14.4-2. Hamilton peppered the Motherwell goal with headers and

:19:15. > :19:18.shots that were cleared off the line or saved. They couldn't get the

:19:19. > :19:23.crucial third to bring them straight back into the match. Moult has given

:19:24. > :19:29.a fist up to the crowd in celebration. The key man here.

:19:30. > :19:33.The man of the moment at mother well. Given the departure of Marvin

:19:34. > :19:38.Johnson he will be crucial for them. He already proved that he was last

:19:39. > :19:45.season in his partnership with Scott McDonald was so vital to them. Other

:19:46. > :19:48.players are stepping up. Ryan Bowman has played a real part in this game

:19:49. > :19:52.today. He could have had a goal today. There was a slight argument,

:19:53. > :19:57.disagreement over who was taking the penalty. He was the player brought

:19:58. > :20:01.down. He stepped up to the take it. Then Louis Moult said, I'm on this

:20:02. > :20:06.one. He scored a penalty last week as well. Definitely his duty. I

:20:07. > :20:14.believe it's fulltime imminent, no it's not, I was going to say it is

:20:15. > :20:20.at Rugby Park, but it's not. Hamilton, losing 4-2 today and two

:20:21. > :20:24.goals from Crawford. He's their talisman. Even when he's scoring

:20:25. > :20:29.they've gone down to defeat. Just winning one match this season.

:20:30. > :20:31.They're at the bottom. That's probably them, I don't necessity

:20:32. > :20:37.where it will be in the league. Third bottomment Not easy. Also a

:20:38. > :20:45.derby, you want to win the derby to give you confidence and that. What

:20:46. > :20:49.Ally Crawford will score goals again. The defensive side of the

:20:50. > :20:53.game, I always feel as a goalkeeper, if you have a good unit there, you

:20:54. > :20:58.can nick games, you have a chance. It's going to be tough enough season

:20:59. > :21:01.for them. St Johnstone goalkeeper has had a clean sheet this

:21:02. > :21:08.afternoon. His side winning 1-0 at home to hearts. We can see fulltime

:21:09. > :21:13.scenes there. There he is. He will be a happy man this evening. We can

:21:14. > :21:17.get the details now. Hearts have passed up the chance to go top of

:21:18. > :21:25.the table this evening 1-0 to St Johnstone. A very competitive match,

:21:26. > :21:28.but dominated by Hearts. Graham Cummings prodded past Hamilton just

:21:29. > :21:34.before the hour mark totally against the run of play. Hearts completely

:21:35. > :21:41.dominant till that point. Clarke in the goal was in sensational form all

:21:42. > :21:45.afternoon. Great one-handed, close-range saves from Nichol son in

:21:46. > :21:53.particular. It just wouldn't fall for them. Patterson headed against

:21:54. > :21:56.the bar. The build up to this game dominated by Tommy Wright saying

:21:57. > :22:03.Hearts players go to ground too easily. He was looking sheepish when

:22:04. > :22:09.his midfielder Michael Koulson was booked for diving early on. The

:22:10. > :22:13.manager sent to the stand late on, we will find out what that is all

:22:14. > :22:19.about. Hearts dismall form in the league continues. They haven't won

:22:20. > :22:25.here since 2010. Fulltime, it finished St Johnstone #1, Hearts 0.

:22:26. > :22:28.Defeat for Hearts, also defeat for Hibernian, this afternoon. They were

:22:29. > :22:36.at home to Ayr United in the championship. We can have the

:22:37. > :22:42.fulltime report now. It finished 2-1. A remarkable crowd in front of

:22:43. > :22:47.15,000 here at Easter road, all of them looking for record breaking

:22:48. > :22:55.Hibernian sixth win out of six in the league, a record held since

:22:56. > :23:01.19146/47 season. Cummings opened the score and they looked on course for

:23:02. > :23:04.the seven out seven winners. A magnificent, left foot, curling

:23:05. > :23:08.shot. He's score the in all six games this season. The pivotal point

:23:09. > :23:12.in the game was mid-way through the first half. A red card was shown to

:23:13. > :23:16.Bartley by the referee for a challenge on Jamie Adams. The whole

:23:17. > :23:24.contrast of the game completely changed. Ayr players began to

:23:25. > :23:26.believe. Conrad Balitone equalised with a stunning header. That gave

:23:27. > :23:30.believe. Conrad Balitone equalised the Ayr fans a real hope that they

:23:31. > :23:38.could leave here with all three points. With ten minutes left they

:23:39. > :23:45.scored the winning goal. A wonderful run down the right side into the

:23:46. > :23:53.box. Gilmour slid the ball into the back of the net. Not too bane boos

:23:54. > :24:01.in the -- many boos in the sunshine here. Back to the Premiership, it's

:24:02. > :24:07.still ongoing at Ibrox. It's 0-0. We're into stoppage time. There it's

:24:08. > :24:11.fulltime at Rugby Park. Kilmarnock against Partick Thistle. Let's hear

:24:12. > :24:19.from John Barnes. A point apiece here this afternoon. Kilmarnock 2,

:24:20. > :24:24.Partick Thistle 2. A terrific left foot strike into the bottom right

:24:25. > :24:28.hand corner of the net. Stephen Lawless levelled thing up with

:24:29. > :24:35.terrific touch and turn. On his right foot he fired past McDonald to

:24:36. > :24:39.level things in the first half. In the second period Kilmarnock went in

:24:40. > :24:49.front. This time a header at the back post after a deep cross from

:24:50. > :24:53.the right. It looked at that stage as though Kilmarnock were in the

:24:54. > :24:58.ascendency. Then Liam Lindsay popped up at the back post and blasted home

:24:59. > :25:03.to level it at 2-2. The drama wasn't over then. Osman was sent off for a

:25:04. > :25:08.second yellow card two minutes from the end. That means Kilmarnock have

:25:09. > :25:12.picked up one win in seven. For Partick Thistle no wins in five, but

:25:13. > :25:18.it stops the rot of four straight defeats.

:25:19. > :25:21.In those pictures we saw Kris Boyd and Culibale, that is a fearsome

:25:22. > :25:29.forward line. Looks as though that will stand them in good stead. And

:25:30. > :25:33.no overhead kick. He tried one. He had that fantastic somersault when

:25:34. > :25:39.he scored, which is fantastic. You'd never have been able to do that.

:25:40. > :25:44.Norchlts! -- No! I would have chased after him. He's strong and he's good

:25:45. > :25:48.balance to his game and that. He scores goals, yeah. Kris Boyd big

:25:49. > :25:52.and strong again. We watched the goal here, he was up against three,

:25:53. > :25:59.four defenders, able to hold them off. That's where he wants the ball

:26:00. > :26:02.in that airate pitch. He's going quite -- that area of the pitch.

:26:03. > :26:05.They will be pleased with that result compared to last year where

:26:06. > :26:09.they didn't really perform down there. They'll be happeny enough.

:26:10. > :26:12.That keeps their run going a bit too, without getting beat at home,

:26:13. > :26:17.crucial. Ross County supporters will be happy with the fulltime score

:26:18. > :26:24.line from Ibrox, because it has finished there Rangers 0, Ross

:26:25. > :26:28.County 0. Richard, that's Rangers third draw. They've won just two

:26:29. > :26:33.matches in the opening games. Not the most inspiring of starts. No,

:26:34. > :26:37.they've struggled a bit this season. I think even Mark Warburton would

:26:38. > :26:41.acknowledge that the summer signings have come in and haven't quite

:26:42. > :26:45.fitted the system the way he likes to play. Rangers play with a high

:26:46. > :26:49.press, a lot of pace and tempo in the team. The players coming in have

:26:50. > :26:52.slowed that down. Rangers have lost some of the identity they built up

:26:53. > :26:56.last season, lost their confidence a bit in front of goal. I think why

:26:57. > :27:00.that's such a set back today is not so much the result last week when

:27:01. > :27:05.they lost heavily in the Old Firm game, but they're away to Aberdeen

:27:06. > :27:11.in the league, then Partick Thistle, then Inverness and Hearts. This is a

:27:12. > :27:14.tough period. At home in front of your own crowd not scoring a goal,

:27:15. > :27:17.drawing the game, I think, it's going to be tough. I said at the

:27:18. > :27:21.start of the season, I thought this year Rangers needed to settle into

:27:22. > :27:25.the league. They've been out of it for so long, coming back up. The I

:27:26. > :27:29.know the perception of the fans, they should be up there challenging

:27:30. > :27:33.Celtic. I don't think that should be the case. I think this year they've

:27:34. > :27:36.got to settle in. Obviously, being in the top six, of course. If

:27:37. > :27:42.they're out of that, that would be a disaster all together. Be in there,

:27:43. > :27:46.maybe in third, fourth place and settle themselves down and then

:27:47. > :27:51.build on that. I don't think they're looking at events last week, I don't

:27:52. > :27:54.think they should be up there in any way challenging Celtic at the

:27:55. > :27:58.moment. Queen of the South are at the top of the championship. Let's

:27:59. > :28:05.find out details of their match today. 3-1 at home to Raith Rovers.

:28:06. > :28:11.Stephen Dobey proved the difference with a second half double to

:28:12. > :28:14.kickstart the win. The striker proving a talisman with his return

:28:15. > :28:19.to the club. He fired them in front early in the second half. He raced

:28:20. > :28:24.to a through ball from Anderson to calmly slot it into the net. He

:28:25. > :28:30.added a second 15 minutes later. Curling a delightful strike into the

:28:31. > :28:34.net from 20 yards. Dean Brotherton put the result beyond doubt. But a

:28:35. > :28:40.bullet header from the corner was just a consolation for Raith Rovers

:28:41. > :28:44.at the end. Let's head to Dunbarton then in the

:28:45. > :28:52.championship. At home to St Mirren this afternoon. It finished 1-1.

:28:53. > :28:56.Dunbarton might feel they should have had all three points here. The

:28:57. > :29:04.home side opening the score after 15 minutes. Stirling found the back of

:29:05. > :29:09.the net with his right foot. It took Saints till just before halftime to

:29:10. > :29:13.reply. Ryan Hardy was there to nod home. In the second half, Dumbarton

:29:14. > :29:16.were unlucky through Robert Thompson, who was the stand-out

:29:17. > :29:22.player for the home side. His best chance coming on the hour. A great

:29:23. > :29:26.ball over the top, chested down, turned, but Gallacher in goal with a

:29:27. > :29:34.fabulous save. Saints stay bottom. The pressure mounting. That report

:29:35. > :33:12.takes us nicely to the classified results round up:

:33:13. > :33:22.entertaining. And plenty of entertainment

:33:23. > :34:04.New leaders, Queen of the South. Hibs knocked off. St Mirren stay

:34:05. > :34:20.bottom. Stenhousemuir still without a

:34:21. > :34:57.victory. League 2... Manchester City, another resounding

:34:58. > :35:04.victory. Chelsea lost last night. Set Hamilton, -- Southampton game in

:35:05. > :35:32.hand. Blackburn off the foot of the table.

:35:33. > :35:49.First win. It was a good day for St Johnstone, and the manager Tommy

:35:50. > :35:51.Wright. Hard fought? I have said to the new Wales, that we can get

:35:52. > :36:00.results, with quality goalkeeping, the new Wales, that we can get

:36:01. > :36:08.the desire not to let the ball go in the net. Odd bit of quality.

:36:09. > :36:18.Probably not enough. But hard fought win. Perfect. Clean sheet. And

:36:19. > :36:24.perfect for the goalkeeper, what an afternoon for Zander Clarke? I have

:36:25. > :36:34.said before, that I have got two number ones. That is rare. Over the

:36:35. > :36:47.last six months, Zander has improved. The work he gets, the

:36:48. > :36:54.experience, and I don't think there is a better young goalkeeper in

:36:55. > :37:00.Scotland. Gordon Strachan was here today. He can only go away

:37:01. > :37:05.impressed. Certainly something that should be closing in on that score.

:37:06. > :37:10.You mentioned the fact that your seem more than capable getting those

:37:11. > :37:21.results, the will to win is incredible? We have got it in a

:37:22. > :37:29.bottle. How we get it? Good people, staff, attitude. Work hard. And it

:37:30. > :37:42.is a good dressing room. No egos. Everybody, equal. They would die for

:37:43. > :37:52.each other. Tommy Wright, praising Zander Clarke. Absolutely. All the

:37:53. > :37:58.defenders like clean sheets. Today, it looked as though they had got

:37:59. > :38:07.absolutely pummelled, but the goalkeeper produced some heroics. He

:38:08. > :38:11.has done well. And when you have a manager that is also former

:38:12. > :38:22.goalkeeper, giving you that praise, there's going to be on a high. And

:38:23. > :38:31.Dave Mackay has sadly had to retire. But touching tribute today? When

:38:32. > :38:41.they scored they grabbed a jersey with his name. The camera panned to

:38:42. > :38:48.him and he actually looked embarrassed, but that is the sort of

:38:49. > :38:52.person that he is, low key, led them to the Scottish Cup and we spoke

:38:53. > :38:55.about that almost meeting the decision easier, because he has had

:38:56. > :39:01.that moment. Looking to move into coaching. Still one match that is

:39:02. > :39:11.going to be played at the Scottish Championship, between Falkirk and

:39:12. > :39:19.Dundee United. 5.15. Evening. This was always going to be important for

:39:20. > :39:22.two of the teams with hopes of promotion, but after that result at

:39:23. > :39:27.Easter Road this afternoon it is a crucial challenge for them to take

:39:28. > :39:32.advantage and try to close the gap. The Dundee United manager has been

:39:33. > :39:37.satisfied with his recent performances, winning at Dunfermline

:39:38. > :39:47.and just one change to that team. That is after Dickson was sent off.

:39:48. > :39:57.Robson takes over. Falkirk also won at Fife last weekend. 2-1. Peter

:39:58. > :40:02.Houston keeps faith, his first game in charge against his former club.

:40:03. > :40:09.Both of those teams, going into this after a shaky start? But good recent

:40:10. > :40:14.form? I think they are going to see the importance of winning this,

:40:15. > :40:19.closing the gap on Hibs. It was always going to be difficult for

:40:20. > :40:23.Falkirk, it was almost exceptional season, in terms of the consistency

:40:24. > :40:29.but for Dundee and dated, it is a rebuilding job. -- United. He has

:40:30. > :40:36.got to start building consistency, if they are going to challenge. They

:40:37. > :40:43.need to go back up. The competition, building at the Championship. We are

:40:44. > :40:49.going to go back to Perth. Robbie Neilson. I would assume, you are

:40:50. > :40:57.scratching your head, wondering how you have lost? That is football. I

:40:58. > :41:06.have spoken to the players, and we had some fantastic chances, didn't

:41:07. > :41:11.take them. But some things you have got to accept that, I would rather

:41:12. > :41:21.play like that than go direct. It was dominant? We played well, but

:41:22. > :41:33.that is football. We are hungry and energetic. Robbie there. Cut off. He

:41:34. > :41:39.mentioned that he has got an energetic team. Seven Scots in the

:41:40. > :41:48.line up. That could surprise people, after having so many foreign

:41:49. > :41:57.players. They have got Mickelson, Tony Watt, and he is going to get

:41:58. > :42:02.the reward. They have treated so many chances, but not converting,

:42:03. > :42:07.lost the game. Thank you. Time is up. Almost! I can go through the

:42:08. > :42:32.results again. Four goals for Moult at Motherwell.

:42:33. > :42:36.Rangers drawing a blank! And at the Championship, big news, Queen of the

:42:37. > :42:53.South top the table. Ayr United beating Hibs. Falkirk and Dundee

:42:54. > :43:03.United this evening. Highlights of the matches tomorrow at six. Guests

:43:04. > :43:13.are Pat Nevin and Steven Thompson. I will be back next week, with the

:43:14. > :43:28.results, but more post match chat and a lot more on Off The ball. Jane

:43:29. > :43:36.Lewis, not Stuart this week. Thanks for watching. See you soon.
