:01:01. > :01:11.Touchdown. He may have taken a deflection. That was brilliant.
:01:11. > :01:15.
:01:15. > :01:25.That is a penalty. Celtic could not afford a repeat of that against an

:03:38. > :03:45.Neil Lennon would love to be indicates the use of an elbow. He
:03:45. > :03:51.saw an elbow, but I don't think anyone else in the Crown did.
:03:51. > :04:01.Samaras when down holding his face. The referee could not get the red

:05:27. > :05:37.this time. A double their from Stokes. He has got Celtic the wind

:06:38. > :06:48.bay said badly wanted. -- the wind You have written a couple of weeks
:06:48. > :06:53.aback about the referee. Is he optic it? I want Stevie O'Reilly to
:06:53. > :06:57.get better. I am looking at in consistently over the last 18
:06:57. > :07:02.months and I just feel as if he referees in the wrong style. What I
:07:02. > :07:11.mean by that is that he brushes decisions. There are lots of red
:07:11. > :07:20.and yellow cards. He is very officious sometimes. Looking at it,
:07:20. > :07:26.the arm is our, but he has got it wrong. The thing is, he gets
:07:26. > :07:30.upgraded games and there was a high one. He is getting too many of them.
:07:30. > :07:33.Stevie O'Reilly should be doing a couple of Low were games to make
:07:33. > :07:38.sure he is doing his job properly because right now, he certainly
:07:39. > :07:43.isn't. I am sure Inverness will appeal that and you can imagine it
:07:43. > :07:47.will be rescinded and will become a yellow card, but that does not
:07:47. > :07:51.chase the game? You cannot be played the match and you don't know
:07:51. > :07:56.what would have happened. Inverness were very well in it when he was
:07:57. > :08:03.sent off. It was even at that stage and it has changed the face of the
:08:03. > :08:06.game. I'd like to think that the appeals committee will overturn it.
:08:07. > :08:16.That was the third red card of the season and when you look back at
:08:17. > :08:19.
:08:19. > :08:25.the other two, its the situation of was it the player or the ball? Was
:08:25. > :08:34.this an obvious goalscoring opportunity go? Three red cards for
:08:34. > :08:44.Inverness this season - when any event justified? I think it is a
:08:44. > :08:50.coincidence. That is why I did the column a few weeks ago. There was
:08:50. > :09:00.no obvious goalscoring chance. I was at the game where Naismith was
:09:00. > :09:01.
:09:01. > :09:08.brought down by Tokely. What happened yesterday as well, to be
:09:08. > :09:17.honest, there is a case. It is not a conspiracy, it's just coincidence.
:09:17. > :09:23.They had been unlucky. -- they have been unlucky. Celtic might have won
:09:23. > :09:33.the game anyway, even against 11 players. It was a match they had to
:09:33. > :09:36.
:09:36. > :09:44.win. You must have appreciated it. Yes. Stokes was in the right place
:09:44. > :09:49.at the right time. He was sharp all afternoon. There is no doubt he is
:09:49. > :09:57.a goalscorer. If you see some of the course he has scored this
:09:57. > :10:05.season, they are fantastic. But is he better than Kris Boyd? I'm not
:10:05. > :10:10.sure. Neil Lennon left him out and I don't know why. But Stokes is a
:10:10. > :10:20.natural. He has the goalscoring instincts, the same way Kris Boyd
:10:20. > :10:24.
:10:24. > :10:30.has. His game has changed for the better. Gin, you go to Celtic Park
:10:30. > :10:40.on Wednesday night. How do trouble them and how do you can say then?
:10:40. > :10:45.
:10:45. > :10:52.First of all, we have to make sure we can beat. Union -- you need
:10:53. > :10:59.everybody attic. We need to keep our concentration. -- everybody at
:10:59. > :11:08.it. Mother will have to get maximum points to hold on to a cheap share
:11:08. > :11:18.of the SPL second spot. -- to a share of the SPL second
:11:18. > :11:18.
:11:18. > :11:28.spot. Mother hell were right at home. An early free kick gave the
:11:28. > :11:50.
:11:50. > :11:56.Motherwell after that 2-1 defeat at Celtic. Neilson with the cross and
:11:56. > :12:05.it was headed home. They equalised just four minutes after going
:12:05. > :12:15.behind. The former Blackpool striker Vernon got his 5th goal for
:12:15. > :12:30.
:12:30. > :12:40.the season. And the second half, McArdle slung in a good try. Omar
:12:40. > :12:42.
:12:42. > :12:52.Daley scored in the 53rd minute. The Motherwell fans go did former
:12:52. > :12:56.
:12:56. > :13:06.boss Craig Brown throughout. -- goaded. Mother will now have six
:13:06. > :13:10.
:13:10. > :13:17.wins from their last SPL away Motherwell have lost only once in
:13:17. > :13:26.the SPL. Can they maintain it? they can keep everybody fit, they
:13:26. > :13:31.have got a good chance. This what needs to be fit to maintain the
:13:31. > :13:38.challenges that they face. They have got quality players. They are
:13:38. > :13:44.always a threat. It seems almost unnoticed that Stuart McCall is
:13:44. > :13:54.deepening beat Scott. Hughes is there on a short-term deal and also
:13:54. > :13:55.
:13:55. > :14:01.at Omar Daley. He keeps finding them. He says it won't last and
:14:01. > :14:06.he's always played it down. Their record is second to none. Daley
:14:06. > :14:16.scoring that goal was brilliant. We know what Hughes is capable of as
:14:16. > :14:20.
:14:20. > :14:24.well. The squad is really coming together. The pressure is on.

:15:43. > :15:50.
:15:50. > :15:58.glorious scramble. St Mirren are screaming for a penalty. The shot
:15:58. > :16:03.was deflected. MacGowan with the shot at goal. It is touched away
:16:03. > :16:13.again by the Dunfermline keeper who is having a very busy first half.
:16:13. > :16:16.
:16:16. > :16:22.This may not have been going in but he felt he had to make the save. TV
:16:22. > :16:32.has it. A chance to create something there. Hasselbaink to
:16:32. > :16:35.
:16:35. > :16:45.acclaim. St Mirren have what they so richly deserve after 20 minutes.
:16:45. > :16:54.

:17:04. > :17:07.
:17:08. > :17:17.football. Hassell bank's cross. Foiled by Gallagher. This should

:17:27. > :17:37.save that. Lennon would laugh at St Mirren's supremacy to be further
:17:37. > :17:49.
:17:49. > :17:55.rewarded. -- would love. We are in stoppage time. Thomson. Hasselbaink.
:17:55. > :18:03.He created the first and scored the second. That was left virtually the
:18:03. > :18:13.last kick of the first 45 minutes. It was a blunder by a skipper
:18:13. > :18:29.
:18:29. > :18:33.post and then! Dunfermline are back in the game. The keeper tried to
:18:34. > :18:43.prevent that crossing the line, it was difficult to see whether it had
:18:44. > :18:45.
:18:45. > :18:55.gone in already, it is 2-1. This man is a constant thorn in the
:18:55. > :19:03.
:19:03. > :19:13.flesh of the Dunfermline defence. Another reflex stop for the
:19:13. > :19:17.
:19:17. > :19:27.goalkeeper. Thomson threw himself at it. It was almost an own goal.
:19:27. > :19:28.
:19:28. > :19:35.Dunfermline have not given up yet. Cardle with a fierce shot. Sampson
:19:35. > :19:45.gets his gloves behind it. St Mirren hold on. It was a great
:19:45. > :19:49.
:19:49. > :19:54.When you look back on their two holes yesterday, from a defensive
:19:54. > :20:04.point of view from Dunfermline, presumably you are not very happy.
:20:04. > :20:10.
:20:10. > :20:20.That's right. St Merryn really punish us. -- St Mirren. That is a
:20:20. > :20:25.
:20:25. > :20:34.poor goal from our point of view. McLean Was having a great game for
:20:34. > :20:44.them. I guess the worst one was just before half-time. Yes, I think
:20:44. > :20:46.
:20:46. > :20:53.so. Again we were punished. They do play some lovely stuff, don't they?
:20:53. > :20:58.They do, they do what Lennon wants them to do. They have started
:20:58. > :21:05.mixing things up, sometimes they take chances, I think what has
:21:05. > :21:10.helped them is that they have mixed it up, played and gone long in the
:21:10. > :21:20.last couple of weeks. It is not hard to see where Dunfermline have
:21:20. > :21:21.
:21:21. > :21:26.gone wrong. We can look at this chart which shows goals for and
:21:26. > :21:31.goals against. We have given ourselves too much to-do in a
:21:31. > :21:38.number of the Games this year. What I will say about the boys is that
:21:38. > :21:48.they showed a lot of character in the second half. I think they gave
:21:48. > :21:49.
:21:49. > :21:57.their opponents a bit of a fright. Dunfermline's 3 SPL wins have been
:21:57. > :22:02.away from home. Yes. When day's score at they will win games. If
:22:02. > :22:07.they can keep a clean sheet and be compact which they are capable of
:22:07. > :22:12.doing, trying to keep things a little bit tighter, they want to
:22:12. > :22:22.have a little bit of flair in the attack but when they get the weds

:22:24. > :22:31.and the crosses in the box they can score goals. -- width. The North
:22:31. > :22:38.Stand at East End Park has been shut down to save money on police
:22:38. > :22:45.and stewarding, is that worrying from the playing side of things?
:22:45. > :22:49.do not think it is just done Furman alone. If you look across Scottish
:22:49. > :22:53.Football League teams are really struggling for revenue. There are a
:22:53. > :22:59.few fans who are really unhappy because they have sat there for a
:22:59. > :23:04.long, long time but we have to look forward. It doesn't sound like you

:24:13. > :24:14.
:24:14. > :24:24.Harks making all the early running. -- Hearts. Robertson is the air,
:24:24. > :24:25.
:24:25. > :24:35.what a fine goal! That was greeted from absolutely nothing. Daly had
:24:35. > :24:35.
:24:35. > :24:45.nothing but Roberts and to aim at. That diving header was exquisite. -
:24:45. > :24:48.
:24:48. > :24:58.- Robertson. The des Skacel and an own goal. It is going to be chopped
:24:58. > :25:06.
:25:06. > :25:13.off! He was offside. That was very, very close. Stephen is losing out.
:25:13. > :25:21.Hearts can come forward once more. Here is my gallant. That might find
:25:21. > :25:29.its way into the back of the net. - - MacGowan. That almost worked out
:25:29. > :25:39.nicely for him. Good goalkeeping. Sergio confined to the stance for a
:25:39. > :25:46.
:25:46. > :25:53.couple of weeks. -- stands. Here is Skacel again. The chance is not
:25:53. > :26:00.entirely gone just yet. Perhaps Skacel could have played this
:26:00. > :26:10.earlier to Templeton. It was a decent shot. Templecombe with ahead
:26:10. > :26:13.
:26:13. > :26:22.the touch on the rebound. -- Templeton. Again it is really quick
:26:22. > :26:32.feet from this man. Again it is round to Robertson. Skacel in close
:26:32. > :26:42.proximity. He merely has looked like their best opportunity of an
:26:42. > :26:43.
:26:43. > :26:53.all this afternoon. -- he really has. Rankin could not get hold of
:26:53. > :26:54.
:26:54. > :27:04.it as he would have liked. The two former Kilmarnock men are linking
:27:04. > :27:05.
:27:05. > :27:10.up. One way and then the other. Sutton did not catch that. It is
:27:10. > :27:18.his first start since August, he will be desperate to make an impact.
:27:18. > :27:28.He did not get hold of that at all. Skacel, and a nice touch for
:27:28. > :27:35.
:27:35. > :27:42.Stevenson. Sutton is climbing, he felt he was being held down. His
:27:42. > :27:49.arm was being held. United are looking for a killer second. Surely
:27:49. > :27:59.that would wrap up the points. Daily on the rebound. Again that is
:27:59. > :28:01.
:28:01. > :28:11.going to be chopped off. The assistant just about gets that one
:28:11. > :28:14.
:28:14. > :28:22.If you are only going to score once every three years you have to make
:28:22. > :28:29.it a belter. That is what Robertson has done. It was his desire to get
:28:29. > :28:35.into the box. It was a fabulous delivery from John Daly. It was a
:28:35. > :28:44.superb finish. You talk about the desire but you have to be fit and
:28:44. > :28:48.you have to want to get there. The ball has to be pinpointed. To
:28:49. > :28:58.execute the header and then your neck to put it in that corner I
:28:59. > :29:04.
:29:05. > :29:14.think that is an unbelievable goal. Fantastic. I think both teams had a
:29:15. > :29:19.
:29:19. > :29:28.goal chalked off which it looked on side to me. No harm done. This man
:29:28. > :29:38.was banned from detectable area. We have seen a phone calls being made
:29:38. > :29:40.
:29:40. > :29:45.on the mobile but they are not getting the signal. I know you are
:29:45. > :29:52.seeing what is the use of banning them when they can still put orders
:29:52. > :30:02.across. He is shouting down. They are going to have to make a ruling
:30:02. > :30:04.
:30:04. > :30:14.on whether they can contact them or You have had a touchline ban this
:30:14. > :30:16.
:30:16. > :30:25.season. How has it affected you? Quite a lot. It is very frustrating.
:30:25. > :30:35.Big changes coming at Hearts. The club is up for sale answer are some
:30:35. > :30:36.
:30:36. > :30:44.of the players. This is what Hearts had to say about it. It is going to
:30:45. > :30:49.be all change. How do you see? Desperate days ahead. They realise
:30:49. > :30:53.they are in trouble, financially. For what they wanted to achieve in
:30:53. > :30:59.Scottish football, they were paying out too much money. I think
:30:59. > :31:02.Vladimir Romanov realises he cannot run his business like that.
:31:02. > :31:05.Hibs were at home to Kilmarnock yesterday and stand-in manager
:31:05. > :31:15.Billy Brown was looking to bolster his claims to get the job on a
:31:15. > :31:30.
:31:30. > :31:40.full-time basis. Here's how it went half. Pascali fired home of the
:31:40. > :31:44.
:31:44. > :31:54.rebound. 1-0 down at half-time. At half timed Billy Brown make some
:31:54. > :32:16.
:32:16. > :32:22.Kilmarnock. The header was comfortably saved. Dean Shiels was
:32:22. > :32:32.also causing problems for his old club. Kelly kept the pressure on
:32:32. > :32:33.
:32:33. > :32:38.and more often than not, it kept possession of the ball. -- HET.
:32:38. > :32:48.Frustration for Kilmarnock's manager. No free kick apart from an
:32:48. > :32:55.obvious foul. A similar situation afterwards further blackened his
:32:55. > :33:03.loop towards the referee Stephen Finney. This wasn't the greatest
:33:03. > :33:08.game. Fulmar not need to turn more of these draws into wins, but the
:33:08. > :33:18.big question remains - was this result enough to earn Billy Brown
:33:18. > :33:24.
:33:24. > :33:32.Will it be Billy Brown? He has got a wealth of experience and I think
:33:32. > :33:37.he will do a brilliant job. He is a proper football man. Clearly, he is
:33:37. > :33:43.being besieged by autograph hunters. That is sending out a message. Well,
:33:43. > :33:48.three of them anyway and!. He would have wanted to win the game. Let's
:33:48. > :33:58.cut to the chase. It would have been better for him if he had. They
:33:58. > :33:59.
:33:59. > :34:03.had a poor first half. At least he changed things and they got a draw.
:34:03. > :34:09.It wasn't a totally bad result. It depends on what happens in the
:34:09. > :34:19.coming weeks. The bookies don't often get it wrong and they have
:34:19. > :34:28.
:34:28. > :34:34.packed Finland as odds-on favourite. -- Pat Finland. He has done well in
:34:34. > :34:39.Ireland. He was coveted by Dundee United a couple of years ago, but
:34:39. > :34:49.it did not work out. I think Billy Brown is a good candidate for that
:34:49. > :34:54.
:34:54. > :34:57.job and I hope he get it. -- get it. The first match for Steve Lomas as
:34:58. > :35:07.St Johnstone manager shaped up as a tough one. A trip to Ibrox where
:35:08. > :35:22.
:35:22. > :35:32.the Perth team haven't won a league played so Johnston this time. -- St

:37:27. > :37:31.
:37:31. > :37:41.was a great ball. -- Mackay. Saints continuing to travel well. They

:40:17. > :40:23.points constitutes a crisis, but the momentum could be last. Yes.
:40:23. > :40:33.They still have a fantastic record overall, but you need to be certain
:40:33. > :40:36.
:40:36. > :40:44.with home games. There is a new manager at St Johnstone. It wasn't
:40:44. > :40:51.just all about Rangers dominating. Was this a model for what you would
:40:51. > :40:56.like to do at Celtic Park on Wednesday night? You have to be
:40:56. > :41:01.solid against the Old Firm. As you can see here, they had a real
:41:01. > :41:11.threat on the counter attack and had some good chances. There were a
:41:11. > :41:19.
:41:19. > :41:29.couple of good saves by McGregor. McGregor has made a few mistakes.
:41:29. > :41:32.
:41:32. > :41:41.However, he knows how to get points. The acquisition of Steve Lomas,
:41:41. > :41:44.fantastic playing career. He has been on the lower rungs of the
:41:45. > :41:54.latter would be youth teams as well. Does he sound like the right man
:41:55. > :41:55.
:41:55. > :42:05.for the job? Yes. He has a desire to get into coaching. He looks
:42:05. > :42:09.
