:00:27. > :00:31.football fare for you in the next 45 minutes and some big talking
:00:31. > :00:36.points. Was it a punch or a penalty? Should it have been a red
:00:36. > :00:41.card? Answers from injured St Johnstone striker Killian Sheridan.
:00:41. > :00:46.His current club tackled his own team in person today. Celtic trying
:00:46. > :00:51.to keep their title challenge on track. But St Johnstone 1 at Celtic
:00:51. > :00:58.track. But St Johnstone 1 at Celtic Park for months ago. -- St
:00:58. > :01:04.Johnstone won. At the back of the net!
:01:04. > :01:08.For the rematch, Steve Lomas made two changes to his team. Callum
:01:08. > :01:11.Davidson was ill and Sam Parkin was on the bench. Kevin Moon and David
:01:11. > :01:15.Robertson started. Celtic were without Anthony Stokes but Neil
:01:15. > :01:25.Lennon was happy to say same again to the team which performed so well
:01:25. > :01:39.
:01:39. > :01:49.in Italy on Thursday night. The save. It was a decent hit by
:01:49. > :01:57.
:01:57. > :02:06.Samaras. Enckelman, guarding his McCracken takes the action over his
:02:06. > :02:10.crossbar. It was a great ball through. Hooper could not directed.
:02:11. > :02:20.-- direct it. Six straight wins in the SPL coming into today. Looking
:02:21. > :02:44.
:02:44. > :02:53.floor. Trying to work past stayed down. That was a sore one
:02:53. > :03:03.for David Robertson to take. There is concern here. David Robertson
:03:03. > :03:03.
:03:03. > :03:13.got dumped to the ground. Majstorovic and casualty. He really
:03:13. > :03:25.
:03:25. > :03:29.got thumped here. It must have felt Enckelman. Gary Hooper cannot
:03:29. > :03:39.believe it. He thought he was opening the scoring. It was a miss
:03:39. > :04:01.
:04:01. > :04:09.got the winner when they met earlier this season. Back To Black
:04:09. > :04:17.wins again Celtic for the first time since 1998 for St Johnstone. -
:04:17. > :04:27.- back to back. Another fine save from Peter Enckelman. Hooper met
:04:27. > :04:32.
:04:32. > :04:37.the cross well. Enckelman denied Celtic are ahead. He has been
:04:37. > :04:45.denied by the goalkeeper on several occasions. Peter Enckelman could do
:04:45. > :04:55.little. Gary Hooper was the first to react. Wanyama tried to get
:04:55. > :05:16.
:05:17. > :05:22.their head around it. Not a fun have taken this game. -- two goals
:05:22. > :05:32.in four minutes. Samaras played it on to Forest. It was class C and
:05:32. > :05:32.
:05:32. > :06:13.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:06:13. > :06:17.clinical and typical Celtic. -- Just one goal this season for
:06:17. > :06:22.Georgios Samaras. He thought they should have been a corner. He just
:06:22. > :06:25.should have been a corner. He just seemed to write of steam. Obviously,
:06:25. > :06:31.frustrated to not be playing today. Jasper run out of steam. Did you
:06:31. > :06:39.think they would get something. result was a better chance of us
:06:39. > :06:45.getting something, but the corners killed us. We came out too much for
:06:45. > :06:49.a free kick. Seven straight wins for Celtic. You played with Neil
:06:49. > :06:52.Lennon and you are managed by him as well for a spell. Obviously,
:06:52. > :07:00.this is important for him at the moment, because he was teetering
:07:00. > :07:06.with bad results. Those bad results, and then another bad result after
:07:06. > :07:10.all of that could have really put pressure on him. But he responded
:07:10. > :07:18.and the team responded as he would have expected. He does not like
:07:18. > :07:27.losing. Definitely not! No manager does. Or should. I have been on the
:07:27. > :07:32.end of a few of his discussions. And Steve Lomas will not have liked
:07:32. > :07:41.being on the end of those set pieces. All was a killer to lose a
:07:41. > :07:47.corner. -- always. They are always easy to prevent. The free kick here,
:07:47. > :07:54.maybe he committed too much for word. They did well keeping the
:07:54. > :08:01.ball in with the back leg but if he had left it and let it run out,...
:08:01. > :08:10.At this point, you are stretched. Especially with the pace. Samaras
:08:10. > :08:12.Especially with the pace. Samaras and then Ki Sung Yeung. I would not
:08:12. > :08:17.have been surprised at the goalkeeper kept it out, the way he
:08:17. > :08:20.had been playing. But they are strong on the counter-attack.
:08:20. > :08:25.strong on the counter-attack. Samaras, heavily involved. Celtic
:08:25. > :08:29.fans love to hate him but he is in good form. Definitely. All strikers,
:08:29. > :08:33.when you are playing with confidence, you feel untouchable.
:08:33. > :08:39.And then if you go a few bad games, and the fans get on your back, it
:08:39. > :08:47.can get into her head. I think he has proven what a good player he
:08:47. > :08:55.can be. -- get into your head. were at a comfort break when Daniel
:08:55. > :08:59.Majstorovic got himself injured. It sounds like a fractured cheekbone.
:08:59. > :09:08.There is a sad irony that at the moment, he has been settling into a
:09:08. > :09:12.solid game. He went through a shaky patch. Defence has been so crucial
:09:12. > :09:17.in this could run. He will be disappointed, to get a nasty injury
:09:17. > :09:23.like that. St Johnstone were minus key players today, Jody Morris,
:09:23. > :09:29.Frazer Wright, yourself. It is a frustration because you got off to
:09:29. > :09:32.frustration because you got off to such a great start. There were a
:09:32. > :09:41.few games where we were flying, and then we had the international break
:09:41. > :09:46.and I got injured and he got injured. It has disrupted it a bit.
:09:46. > :09:50.When we were not playing and there were boys waiting to come in, I
:09:50. > :10:00.think the lads could definitely do a job. Three finishes there from
:10:00. > :10:01.
:10:01. > :10:07.here. But occasionally, you do pass the ball,! We are saying that we
:10:07. > :10:11.the ball,! We are saying that we need to pass more before scoring.
:10:11. > :10:18.He is trying to take the credit after that Pep crop -- pep talk.
:10:18. > :10:22.When the thing he will be playing again? I do not know. I would say
:10:22. > :10:26.between four and six weeks, so maybe another two or three. I will
:10:26. > :10:31.have to see where I am at. And you are alone at St Johnstone is coming
:10:31. > :10:34.to an end so there are question marks. You were on loan from
:10:34. > :10:39.Bulgaria, what would you like to have happened? Are the in the
:10:39. > :10:44.winter break? Their own the Christmas break. I should be on
:10:44. > :10:51.holiday. -- they are all on the Christmas break. It is all in the
:10:51. > :10:56.air. We will see what happens between now and January. Get fit
:10:57. > :11:06.and get playing, basically? priority is to get training. To be
:11:06. > :11:10.ready for January. Motherwell find it easier to win on the road. They
:11:10. > :11:20.were looking for their first Fir were looking for their first Fir
:11:20. > :11:34.
:11:34. > :11:41.Park victory against St Mirren Jennings. A booking for the
:11:41. > :11:48.Motherwell man. I think he thought he was fouled himself there.
:11:48. > :11:52.Frustration creeping in. Rightly booked. I think he was booked for
:11:52. > :12:02.that as well. There is a punch in the stomach as well. I'm not sure
:12:02. > :12:07.
:12:07. > :12:13.changed his mind or at least the assistants have changed it for him.
:12:13. > :12:23.I think he awarded the penalty but Tessa la has been judged to be
:12:23. > :12:33.
:12:33. > :12:43.Brilliant work from Jamie Murphy. He might have taken it on himself,
:12:43. > :12:51.
:12:51. > :13:00.but selfishly passes to Higdon, who It has been an intriguing match. --
:13:00. > :13:10.thumped off the line by Jim Goodwin. What a good try by Randolph. St
:13:10. > :13:18.
:13:18. > :13:22.Mirren pushing forward. What an Motherwell have the breakthrough.
:13:22. > :13:31.It is the former St Mirren man, Michael had done. Great work to
:13:31. > :13:39.manage to dig out the cross. -- Michael Higdon. He came out
:13:39. > :13:44.victorious, putting Motherwell in front. St Mirren will feel hard
:13:44. > :13:49.done by to be behind. Jim Goodwin caught that be double A. It is an
:13:49. > :13:54.equaliser for St Mirren! -- Court that beautifully. Darren Randolph
:13:54. > :14:04.flew to his right but there is just no stopping an absolute rocket like
:14:04. > :14:16.
:14:16. > :14:26.could not hit the target. He got around the goalkeeper, and that was
:14:26. > :14:26.
:14:26. > :15:10.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 40 seconds
:15:10. > :15:20.The sometimes seek retrospective action. Good though be in trouble
:15:20. > :15:22.
:15:22. > :15:29.for the puncture on Steve Jennings? I think so. I think he is lucky
:15:29. > :15:34.that Jennings has not gone down. He could have tried to make it worse.
:15:34. > :15:43.I think there are a few naughty tackle fear that all built up to
:15:43. > :15:48.one. Jennings got fouled. He got angry and the first person he saw.
:15:48. > :15:53.It has been building up for something to happen. Motherwell
:15:53. > :15:57.will look back at it and think to ended when could well have been
:15:57. > :16:04.red-carded there and would have been off the pitch and would not
:16:04. > :16:11.have scored that wonder goal later on. He was perfect. Any keeper is
:16:11. > :16:17.going to save that. In the top corner. It is one of those. He
:16:17. > :16:20.caught it full-on, perfect. Mirren could look back as well and
:16:21. > :16:26.see the change of decision from Calum Murray. He gives the penalty
:16:26. > :16:34.and then he gets the word in his ear that it is off side. What do
:16:34. > :16:40.you think? Looking at the replay. It looked like his shoulder or
:16:40. > :16:44.something. He was taken out, there is no doubt about that. When we
:16:44. > :16:51.look at it here it is not conclusive but he does not look
:16:51. > :16:58.like he is in line. I do not think it was in line. Not that you are
:16:58. > :17:06.biased or anything? Totally biased! I think the linesman has got to get
:17:06. > :17:10.something for that tackle. They tend to go to defenders more now.
:17:10. > :17:15.You were on loan to Motherwell, are you impressed with what they have
:17:15. > :17:24.done this season? Yeah, now they have been flying. We played them
:17:24. > :17:28.away. They are eight points clear of us now. They have been brilliant.
:17:28. > :17:32.Goal of the season contender in that game and there is another one
:17:33. > :17:42.in the short lived in this one, Kilmarnock against Dundee United at
:17:42. > :17:47.Rugby Park. The Kilmarnock goalkeeper was the star of this
:17:47. > :17:54.match. First he had to keep out this slightly deflected shot from
:17:54. > :18:02.John Rankin. There would be plenty more to keep the bell ringing early
:18:02. > :18:12.doors. Then the United boss, Peter Houston, would later claim no one
:18:12. > :18:17.could have complained if they had been for her-0 up after 15 minutes.
:18:17. > :18:23.Best header was touched under the crossbar. It was a frustrating day.
:18:23. > :18:29.The United captain felt it was four games without a goal. The alarm
:18:29. > :18:35.bells ringing again early on. Kilmarnock finally got moving down
:18:35. > :18:45.the other end. This man went down like a sack of spuds are under
:18:45. > :18:50.
:18:50. > :19:00.tackle. Before you could say it was not fair, the crossbar came close.
:19:00. > :19:00.
:19:00. > :19:10.They almost made the most of the chance. Then it was made in with
:19:10. > :19:13.
:19:13. > :19:20.this play. But an unlucky final touch. The Kilmarnock No. 13th did
:19:20. > :19:28.not finish. Then the tangerines took the lead in terms of the
:19:28. > :19:33.number of times they had struck the woodwork! The United skipper has
:19:34. > :19:41.got 12 goals so far this season but his luck was just not in with best
:19:42. > :19:47.shot going wide. -- with this shot going wide. When it is not your day,
:19:47. > :19:55.it is not your day! Dixon with the cross, the lay with the finish, it
:19:55. > :20:03.should have been 1-0. There was proof that John Daly himself
:20:03. > :20:07.absolutely knew that. After a few close calls in the first have how
:20:07. > :20:15.about the real thing from James Peden? A definite contender for
:20:15. > :20:21.goal of the season from be 23-year- old Englishman. The goal was later
:20:21. > :20:30.described by the manager as world class. No one disagreed. That goal
:20:30. > :20:37.came in the 31st minute. Just in time up popped Dixon to make it 1-1
:20:37. > :20:46.and in terms of the number of chances made it was a. That and the
:20:46. > :20:50.United at least deserved. Dundee United dominated in the first half.
:20:50. > :20:57.It may have been a combination of bad luck and bad finishing for them.
:20:57. > :21:04.You would have expected them to have a hefty lead after this? By a
:21:04. > :21:11.absolutely. They had a lot of good chances. This was a good save. He
:21:11. > :21:16.had a few. I think that was obviously be hard won. They were
:21:16. > :21:23.really unlucky. John Daly would expect to score with that and maybe
:21:23. > :21:27.this one as well, wouldn't he? I think so. Strikers have the days
:21:27. > :21:35.where it just does not seem to happen yet on another day he could
:21:35. > :21:39.have scored all three. I know what it is like. You will appreciate
:21:39. > :21:46.this left peg effort which is an early contender for goal lobby
:21:46. > :21:52.season, do you reckon? Definitely. It was the angle. You cannot really
:21:52. > :21:59.get much more into the top corner. It was perfect. Is that one better
:21:59. > :22:05.than this one? I am going to say yes because it is a left foot. I am
:22:05. > :22:15.just going to be biased towards left-footers. What about this one
:22:15. > :22:25.from two seasons ago? I think that one there is afloat. Certainly the
:22:25. > :22:43.
:22:43. > :22:53.most so of the three. -- a fluke. And now Tuesday night in Perth.
:22:53. > :22:57.
:22:57. > :23:02.From 55 yards! He scores! Hibernian are up against from Aberdeen.
:23:02. > :23:08.Aberdeen have managed to get ahead of Hibernian in de SPL just in the
:23:08. > :23:14.last couple of games. This will put some daylight between them. That is
:23:14. > :23:24.a great ball. A fantastic pass from Galbraith. Heaslip did it through
:23:24. > :23:26.
:23:26. > :23:33.four or corner. -- he slithered it through. That was for O'Connor.
:23:33. > :23:43.They earn and got between beekeeper and the ball. -- there are none got
:23:43. > :23:48.
:23:48. > :23:54.between the goalkeeper and the ball. -- Vernon got between. It is true
:23:55. > :24:04.the poor defending from Stevens, you have got to see. Now Michael
:24:05. > :24:08.
:24:08. > :24:14.Hart. To Fallon. Fallon could not find the target. Right at the back
:24:14. > :24:22.post with Scott. Jason Brown was equal to it but Jason Scott did not
:24:22. > :24:29.find the space at the back end of the Aberdeen penalty area. He is
:24:29. > :24:39.appealing for a free-kick but he is not getting it. That is a good turn.
:24:39. > :24:48.
:24:48. > :24:58.Penalty! Spiral with a challenge. - - Sproul. This has been deemed a
:24:58. > :25:00.
:25:00. > :25:06.penalty kick. He scores! Hibernian are unhappy with the award of the
:25:06. > :25:16.penalty. There was a booking for it as well. Aberdeen goal in front in
:25:16. > :25:19.
:25:19. > :25:26.what is a crucial game. Was Stephenson caught by Paul? It may
:25:26. > :25:32.be worse than that for the Aberdeen youngster. It is a red car. It is a
:25:32. > :25:42.straight red for this young man. We could see why perhaps this Red Ed
:25:42. > :25:42.
:25:42. > :25:50.had come out if he had made contact. Here it is. It seems harsh on the
:25:50. > :25:55.face of it. 10 men are having to defend here. That is a corner, and
:25:55. > :26:01.that his wife. We are looking at the space here that the Aberdeen
:26:01. > :26:09.players have left. They have got more players in the park where they
:26:10. > :26:13.are needed. That man should have scored. It should be 1-1. It is not.
:26:13. > :26:23.He out muscled Foster. It was a good turn but the finish was not
:26:23. > :26:30.
:26:30. > :26:36.there. Scott. When he is in there. Galbraith. That might be it. Head
:26:36. > :26:43.in hands for Danny Galbraith. Loads of space. The incident which
:26:43. > :26:50.decided the game was the penalty decision awarded. What do you
:26:51. > :26:57.think? I would come back to that and say it is nowhere near a
:26:57. > :27:04.penalty. From the other end you can see a dive. It was a pretty bleak
:27:04. > :27:10.then dive and we should say. We need a compliance officer. That
:27:11. > :27:17.displays it pretty clearly, doesn't it? I think so. Given what has
:27:17. > :27:23.happened. I think there will be a lot of pressure for him to be
:27:23. > :27:28.pulled up. Garry O'Connor got off because that one looked to be a
:27:28. > :27:33.blatant dive as well. There was a two-match ban for this. You would
:27:33. > :27:39.imagine there has to be a consistency about this. Was the
:27:39. > :27:45.other died any less blatant than this one? I think both of them have
:27:45. > :27:50.led to crucial penalties. I think that man will be watching and
:27:50. > :27:56.hoping that his opponent gets pulled up as well. They do need
:27:56. > :28:02.that consistency. It is a little bit inconsistent. We will have to
:28:02. > :28:08.wait and see what happens. I wonder if the first man will be pulled off
:28:09. > :28:14.for the died in the penalty but let off for the red card he got for his
:28:14. > :28:19.challenge on Louis Stevenson. Was he not, when you look at the angle,
:28:19. > :28:26.trying to block the ball? I think so. He was just trying to block the
:28:26. > :28:29.ball. It had happened already earlier on in these season. With St
:28:29. > :28:37.Mirren someone had tried to close down the ball. The manager was
:28:37. > :28:45.telling his players to do this. This was a yellow for the challenge
:28:45. > :28:50.on Christopher Clarke which seemed fair enough. Was that, was the
:28:50. > :28:56.other challenge any worse than that one? I do not think so. I think it
:28:56. > :29:01.was not a challenge, it was him trying to block the ball. I think
:29:01. > :29:06.the two have done maybe, yellow cards, I think even the yellow card
:29:06. > :29:16.was harsh. He was trying to block the ball, the clearance. It is just
:29:16. > :29:17.
:29:17. > :29:23.Six points out of six for Aberdeen over five days. Do you expect them
:29:23. > :29:29.to find a comfortable mid-table position? I think they will be
:29:29. > :29:32.expecting than now. Two wins in a row will give them a massive boost.
:29:32. > :29:37.I think they will be going into games with more confidence, looking
:29:37. > :29:41.to get up the table. The latest sideshow at Hearts, where late
:29:41. > :29:47.wages are the norm and the for sale sign has gone up his winner Andy
:29:47. > :29:53.Driver's refusal to play. -- is winger. Can they cope with a new
:29:53. > :29:56.winger. Can they cope with a new distraction?
:29:56. > :30:01.There was drama before kick-off with Andy Driver dropped from the
:30:01. > :30:05.hard squad. There when there is no longer winning -- willing to play
:30:05. > :30:09.under Paulo Sergio. Despite this, Hart's caught off to the perfect
:30:09. > :30:17.start. Stephen Elliott bringing festive cheer within the first two
:30:17. > :30:20.minutes. Not that he was showing it. And despite the off-field turmoil,
:30:20. > :30:26.Hearts looked surprisingly sure- footed at Tynecastle. David
:30:26. > :30:30.Templeton Woods the Dunfermline defence to purposeful fact. --
:30:30. > :30:34.worried the Dunfermline defence. Better work from Brian McGowan down
:30:35. > :30:44.the left-hand side, turning the dumb Furman defenders inside out.
:30:44. > :30:54.Before setting up the midfielder who put Hearts into a two goal lead.
:30:54. > :30:59.Great play from a gallon. And the shot deceived the keeper. --
:30:59. > :31:04.Magellan. Jim MacIntyre with plenty to think about. There was a

:31:53. > :31:56.troubles off the field, certainly in harmony on the street -- on the
:31:56. > :32:00.field. Dunfermline look increasingly vulnerable at the
:32:00. > :32:08.moment. By the end of the match, Hearts were pinging the ball with
:32:09. > :32:15.swagger. Ryan Stevenson thumping goalwards. Paul Gallacher got
:32:15. > :32:19.clobbered in the process. Nothing like a win to help lift the
:32:19. > :32:22.Tynecastle gloom. Worrying times Tynecastle gloom. Worrying times

:32:28. > :32:32.have played some football and Bulgaria and you will know about
:32:32. > :32:35.ownership of a football club and what that means of it there. Owners
:32:35. > :32:41.make all the decisions and sometimes they just pay players
:32:41. > :32:50.when they fancy it. That's right. It is just the culture, the
:32:50. > :32:59.mentality in Eastern Europe. You see it in Russian teams, it is

:33:54. > :33:58.difficult for Rangers. Let us see how they fare on Terry Butcher's
:33:58. > :34:02.latest return trip. The leaders made two changes to the
:34:02. > :34:10.team which won at Hibernian. Kyle Lafferty was on the bench alongside

:37:04. > :37:13.fans are not happy that Inverness are playing on. This will be
:37:13. > :37:17.controversial. It is 11! Andrew Shinnie against his old team. -- it
:37:17. > :37:26.is one to one. Inverness take full advantage. Nikita Jelavic was on

:38:44. > :38:51.carry. MacGregor. -- Billy McKay. Lee Wallace. Where did he come
:38:51. > :38:59.from? That goal would surely end. It did not go over the line. Lee
:38:59. > :39:08.Wallace saves Rangers'. An incredible spectacle in this second
:39:08. > :39:13.35. This is grade by Rangers. Lafferty. Out of jail! They are out
:39:13. > :39:20.of jail big time, Rangers. Inverness could potentially have
:39:20. > :39:28.been 3-1 up. At the end of the season that is the sort of game
:39:28. > :39:33.which might count big time for Rangers. Definitely. They want to
:39:33. > :39:38.get tighter between now and the end of the season. The definitely want
:39:38. > :39:43.those kind of games. You can look at them and thing you have been a
:39:43. > :39:49.little bit lucky, but if you want to win titles those are the kind of
:39:49. > :39:54.games that you win. As you say, I do not think Rangers have been at
:39:54. > :40:00.their best for a wee while but sometimes it is just about grinding
:40:00. > :40:07.out wins. Absolutely. I believe that. Sometimes in championships it
:40:07. > :40:10.is just about playing badly rather than being able to win. I think
:40:10. > :40:15.Inverness felt that some of the decisions went against them in the
:40:15. > :40:21.game. Do you think they could have had a penalty for handball against
:40:21. > :40:29.Jelavic? I think that would have been kind of harsh. It was in kind
:40:29. > :40:34.of an awkward area. Is this a better shout? I think so, yeah.
:40:34. > :40:42.Maybe the fact he has not gone down or anything. I think it was amazing
:40:42. > :40:47.just to stop in the box. He must have got a little bit put off.
:40:47. > :40:53.this was Richie Foran heading in the free-kick from Andrew Findlay.
:40:53. > :40:58.As we three's it here, I think it was just marginally off? I think it
:40:58. > :41:03.was just the shoulder, slightly off side but it could have been the
:41:03. > :41:08.benefit which clearly should have been given. The Rangers fans were
:41:08. > :41:13.not too happy about the build up to the equaliser because Jelavic had
:41:13. > :41:19.been down injured. I think as we had showed in the highlights,
:41:19. > :41:26.Rangers could have knocked the ball out as well. I think they did have
:41:26. > :41:30.that chance. It was a good cut back with a good finish from that man.
:41:30. > :41:36.Following that, in good chances. You do not normally get too many of
:41:36. > :41:42.those at Ibrox. Billy Mackay around the goalkeeper stumbled slightly.
:41:42. > :41:47.Yes, it was a good run. He was just a little bit of balance. He was
:41:47. > :41:52.definitely a little bit unlucky. And this man was just again a
:41:52. > :42:00.little bit of balance, don't you think? Yes, I think so, he
:42:00. > :42:05.connected well with the ball. It was cleared of the line. You can
:42:05. > :42:09.only talk so long about being in a false position for it to mean
:42:10. > :42:15.anything but Inverness do not look like a team who should be in their
:42:15. > :42:19.position? Definitely. The definitely should have got
:42:19. > :42:24.something from the game. They created chances. To lose the game
:42:24. > :42:29.after playing so well to an Old Firm team is a little hard to take.
:42:29. > :42:35.I think having had so many chances in the match it was maybe obvious
:42:35. > :42:41.what was coming next, the killer punch at 83 minutes, Kyle Lafferty
:42:41. > :42:48.and Rangers' won the game. Yes. Jelavic was brilliant. A good
:42:48. > :42:53.finish from Lafferty. Terry Butcher would not be too happy about this
:42:53. > :42:58.man charging out of the back line and leaving a hole? That's right.
:42:58. > :43:06.He should have stayed and held the line. Jelavic is a little bit
:43:06. > :43:11.smarter than him and quicker into the box. Is it heading for a photo
:43:11. > :43:16.finish again do you think, between the Old Firm? I think it is looking
:43:16. > :43:22.like that now, it was not a few weeks ago. Rangers dropped a few
:43:22. > :43:25.points. I think it is heading that way again bill. Thank you for
:43:25. > :43:35.coming in and weeding your Christmas jumper as well!
:43:35. > :43:38.
:43:38. > :43:46.problem. Motherwell are eight ahead of St Johnstone. They are within
:43:46. > :43:53.one point of the Perth team, that is Hearts. Aberdeen are now six
:43:53. > :44:03.points off the bottom after a few wins. Christmas Eve matches look
:44:03. > :44:04.
:44:04. > :44:09.like this. A variety of kick-offs. It is Hearts macro against
