Sunday night football for you. Highlights of the two SPL matches

:00:19.:00:23.

played today and four from yesterday. 20 goals to show you.

:00:23.:00:26.

Lots to talk about. And these two can do lots of talking. Steven

:00:26.:00:30.

Thompson and Pat Bonner. At Celtic Park this afternoon, it was top

:00:30.:00:33.

against bottom. Coach Ray Farningham picking the Dundee team

:00:33.:00:36.

after the sacking of manager Barry Smith with interim replacement John

:00:36.:00:46.
:00:46.:01:06.

Brown watching from the stand. Al his hands as interim manager.

:01:07.:01:10.

Harkins tried to find his way back into the back of the net. There's

:01:10.:01:20.
:01:20.:01:39.

into the back of the net. Not a good moment for the former Celtic

:01:39.:01:49.
:01:49.:01:49.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 92 seconds

:01:49.:03:22.

Lennon is a contented man these Forrest. Gary Hooper goes down,

:03:22.:03:28.

penalty kick. Matt Lockwood is in big over here. Three minutes after

:03:28.:03:37.

being introduced as a substitute, Lockwood's game is at an end. James

:03:38.:03:47.
:03:48.:03:48.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 92 seconds

:03:48.:05:08.

the season for McGeoch true. Look Anthony Stokes just allowed to pick

:05:08.:05:18.
:05:18.:05:34.

his past. Ledley sweeps into the smashers it. Celtic are cruising!

:05:34.:05:39.

5-0 up. Another tremendous goal, both in the build-up and the

:05:39.:05:49.

execution. Gary Hooper, 23rd goal It was a tough day for Dundee. You

:05:49.:05:53.

remember Barry Smith from his early days. Were you surprised about the

:05:53.:05:58.

timing of his sacking? Yes, he was a young lad when I was there. He's

:05:58.:06:03.

done remarkably well. I was shocked at the timing of it. If they were

:06:03.:06:07.

going to do it, they'd do it last January, that period when they were

:06:07.:06:13.

talking about it. What is John Brown going to do in this next

:06:13.:06:17.

period? Maybe the Cup games coming up, maybe they hope he's going to

:06:17.:06:21.

do something for that final. I think Barry has done remarkably

:06:21.:06:27.

well during a difficult period for the club. Then having to come in

:06:27.:06:32.

without any preparation time, I thought it was a period they were

:06:32.:06:37.

doing OK. They started off bad, struggled, then a nice period. I

:06:37.:06:40.

know they are 15 points adrift now but they should be thinking about

:06:40.:06:47.

next year. What are they thinking about? Tom Brown, has he been

:06:47.:06:51.

brought in to win the Dundee derby next weekend, keep them in the SPL

:06:51.:06:56.

or take them into the First Division? It's a big ask to keep

:06:56.:07:02.

them in the SPL. I can't believe how badly treated Barry Smith has

:07:02.:07:07.

been by Dundee. He's been a magnificent servant for them. It's

:07:07.:07:12.

been shocking really. John is one of the many managers and coaches

:07:12.:07:17.

who are out of a job and desperate to get a job. Nothing against John.

:07:17.:07:25.

But Barry, they've won seven games now, almost on the bounce. You guys

:07:25.:07:30.

would need to lose all of your sport to have any chance of staying

:07:30.:07:33.

in this division. They've got to be thinking about next year. When you

:07:33.:07:37.

sack a manager, he's a far better manager at this point and he was

:07:37.:07:42.

last year. And he's got the players back in as well. They really liked

:07:42.:07:48.

working under him. It's another big transition for them in what has

:07:48.:07:52.

already been a really difficult season. They played a lot of good

:07:52.:07:55.

football in the first half at Celtic Park, and they could have

:07:55.:08:03.

been ahead inside five or six Fraser got off the hook a little

:08:03.:08:10.

bit here. He was slow to react. Yes, technically offside. The ball was

:08:10.:08:15.

very tight. But I would expect Forster to react quicker. The

:08:15.:08:19.

difference now with the cross coming into those areas, you've got

:08:19.:08:25.

almost give up on the far post and cover that near post. Brilliant

:08:25.:08:29.

vision from Harkins. I think the goalkeeper was sleeping. It's so

:08:29.:08:35.

tight. Some marginal. It's really interfering with him because he's

:08:35.:08:40.

been caught. Technically he is offside, but if there's a run down

:08:40.:08:44.

the line and suddenly the ball ends up in your area and you offside,

:08:44.:08:48.

then you are offside. But they were unlucky. That would have been a

:08:48.:08:52.

fantastic start for them. Unfortunately, it went against them.

:08:52.:08:57.

Then, of course, they end up losing a goal. This was the moment the

:08:57.:09:02.

game disappeared for Dundee. Start of the second half. Lockwood is

:09:02.:09:07.

just on and he's just off. When you go to Parkhead and you've got 11

:09:07.:09:11.

men, it's very difficult. With 10 men it is nigh-on impossible.

:09:11.:09:17.

Defending was poor here. You could say the full-back, what does he do?

:09:17.:09:22.

Does he allow proper to sneak him in the box, or does he have to make

:09:22.:09:26.

an effort to do something about it? Unfortunately he pulls him down. We

:09:27.:09:31.

talked about this triple punishment, penalty against two, a player sent

:09:31.:09:35.

off and now he's going to be suspended for the next game.

:09:35.:09:40.

pointed out, packed, that even though Lockwood was sent off and

:09:40.:09:43.

Dundee were down to 10 men, there was a better tempo about Celtic at

:09:43.:09:46.

the start of the second half. They played a lot of good football with

:09:46.:09:51.

Ledley being the star man. Yes, I thought at half-time Neil wanted to

:09:51.:09:57.

get him in. They did up the tempo. Ledley, he got his goal, the first

:09:57.:10:03.

goal. Again, not great defending. But throughout the game Joe was a

:10:03.:10:08.

different class. You see him running beyond the strikers. He's

:10:08.:10:14.

superb at it. His almost all the time and marked when he makes these

:10:14.:10:18.

runs. This was a fantastic or by another player who did

:10:18.:10:25.

exceptionally well, Stokes. But he is Joe Ledley now. This is a great

:10:25.:10:30.

example for young players to watch. He wins the ball almost in the

:10:30.:10:34.

left-back position here. They break up the pitch, counter-attack and

:10:34.:10:38.

McGeoch gets the ball from the right-hand side. He runs the full

:10:38.:10:42.

length of the pitch here. That shows desire, commitment. Here he

:10:42.:10:48.

comes into the picture. Stokes picks him out and he finishes

:10:48.:10:52.

superbly. Stephen, you remember him well from your time at Cardiff.

:10:52.:10:57.

when I was there he was just 20, 21. He had an awful lot of potential.

:10:57.:11:02.

He really is fulfilling his potential at Celtic. He's got the

:11:02.:11:05.

attributes to be a top midfielder. He's got a lovely left-foot, he's

:11:05.:11:10.

very fit. Use clever, he keeps the ball well. I think he can go on to

:11:10.:11:18.

be an even bigger star. And developing in international

:11:18.:11:24.

football as well. He's a very Dundee United were winners at Fir

:11:24.:11:27.

Park on Tuesday night and were chasing back-to-back victories in

:11:27.:11:31.

the afternoons Tannadice meeting with Hibs. He is the action with

:11:31.:11:41.
:11:41.:11:57.

score. It was played back to his right foot. His best side. Took too

:11:57.:12:07.
:12:07.:12:07.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 92 seconds

:12:07.:12:49.

long. Williams got his goal. It's Watson. You can see he got the ball

:12:49.:12:55.

but how he got the ball is the problem. Definite free-kick.

:12:55.:13:02.

Griffiths, McPake is up. Griffith swings it in. Hibs are level. The

:13:02.:13:10.

goalkeeper came for it. Cierzniak couldn't get there. The header came

:13:10.:13:15.

in from McPake. Then brushed the gloves of the goalkeeper. It goes

:13:15.:13:25.
:13:25.:13:35.

in at the post and Hibs are level netting, a good hit from Leigh

:13:35.:13:45.
:13:45.:13:55.

the goalkeeper. A good build up from Hibernian. Griffiths with

:13:55.:14:00.

plenty of pace and the goalkeeper getting a finger Pip to turn it

:14:00.:14:10.
:14:10.:14:25.

right -- fingertip to turn that into the back of the net and heads

:14:25.:14:33.

have the lead. -- Hibernian had the lead. The goalkeeper was standing

:14:33.:14:38.

in the centre of his goal as Leigh Griffiths let fly. As good as the

:14:38.:14:48.
:14:48.:15:11.

three this term already. -- throws saved from Williams. Good play from

:15:11.:15:21.
:15:21.:15:32.

a united, getting better in the cross, but John Daly could not put

:15:32.:15:42.
:15:42.:15:55.

it on target. Hibernian having to ball through. Inside the final five

:15:55.:16:05.
:16:05.:16:19.

was a penalty. The challenge was outside the box. He meant the trip,

:16:19.:16:24.

did not mean to concede a penalty. And Johnny Russell joins a very

:16:24.:16:34.

short list of players are, so often Ben Williams the hero, but not able

:16:34.:16:42.

to do anything about that from Ben Williams is having a great

:16:42.:16:47.

season, but a major blunder for the first goal. When you share the

:16:47.:16:57.
:16:57.:17:00.

I think that was a bad pass through the midfield up. -- midfielder.

:17:00.:17:04.

Look at the defenders, surely they have to give him an angle to pass

:17:04.:17:10.

the ball out to them? That is the way not to play. He is walking away.

:17:10.:17:15.

A simple pass to the right hand side and the danger is gone.

:17:15.:17:18.

have to get a credit to closing down the goalkeeper. You are giving

:17:18.:17:22.

credit to the strikers. So his first stop the career, he should be

:17:22.:17:28.

pleased with that. What about the equaliser? Should he have come for

:17:28.:17:35.

that free kick? That is a fantastic free kick all played into a

:17:35.:17:39.

dangerous area. He comes, does not get there, and it is a goal.

:17:39.:17:43.

Sometimes you question staying in, but I am one of those old-fashioned

:17:43.:17:49.

people who thinks goalkeeper EU should come across. I think he is

:17:49.:17:54.

probably at falls there. I would have to agree. I would love to see

:17:54.:17:59.

it from back of the goal, because it looks like he's due saved that.

:17:59.:18:04.

If he stands up straight, and get a couple of hands behind the ball, he

:18:04.:18:10.

can beat it away, but he almost died so back with the ball. With

:18:10.:18:14.

the modern game, Ball's move quicker. I do not think that one

:18:14.:18:19.

dead. He knew could argue that, but you cannot see from the camera

:18:19.:18:25.

angle. I think the goalkeeper is at fault for that. He should have

:18:25.:18:30.

saved that. It seems like we will get goal-line technology, maybe 18

:18:30.:18:35.

yard line technology as well, because this was clearly outside.

:18:35.:18:41.

shocking decision. When the attack happened, his feet outside the box,

:18:41.:18:47.

both officials can see that. referee gives a penalty, and he is

:18:47.:18:53.

outside the box, so that cannot be a penalty. Pat Fenlon must be very

:18:53.:19:00.

angry. But a fantastic penalty, Ben Williams having no chance for that.

:19:00.:19:10.
:19:10.:19:26.

hold of this second spot when to begin with. Keith Lasley on the

:19:26.:19:36.
:19:36.:19:39.

edge of the area. Blocked by Quinn. It will be a corner for Motherwell.

:19:39.:19:45.

Keith Lasley, the captain, back in the side after suspension.

:19:45.:19:49.

Motherwell corner, flicked on. It is cleared off the line by Iain

:19:49.:19:52.

Vigurs. Motherwell have it, until County get it to safety through

:19:52.:19:55.

Richard Brittain. It looked like a well-practised move off the

:19:55.:20:05.
:20:05.:20:10.

training ground. Motherwell cannot quite break through. A great goal

:20:10.:20:17.

for County. It is a Ivan Sproule yet again. The County fans love him.

:20:17.:20:22.

He has just arrived from Hibernian, of course. He robs Francis-Angol,

:20:22.:20:27.

gone back on to the ball, and this is a Ivan Sproule's bed game in

:20:27.:20:32.

five goals -- better ball in six games. The 32-year-old still has

:20:32.:20:42.
:20:42.:21:20.

all the difference, getting in but debate play from Lawson into

:21:20.:21:25.

the penalty area. They had done enough to see off Ivan Sproule. A

:21:25.:21:31.

great atmosphere at this stadium. Motherwell fans in fine voice, but

:21:31.:21:37.

County on the attack. A call for a penalty there. Sam Morrow went down

:21:37.:21:44.

on a chance from Shaun Hutchinson. Coming together of the players, but

:21:44.:21:54.
:21:54.:22:06.

County on their way to three points once again. Great play from Ivan

:22:06.:22:10.

Sproule, picking out Richard Brittain, showing composure, and

:22:10.:22:16.

what a finish from Richard Brittain, his eighth goal of the season. Some

:22:16.:22:20.

return from the man destined to move to St Johnstone. Time ticking

:22:20.:22:25.

away, this game very much over for Motherwell. The points will be with

:22:25.:22:34.

county. Iain Vigurs, and it is 3-0, and the points are safe, and

:22:34.:22:38.

another great victory for Ross County, it has to be said. Great

:22:38.:22:46.

play down the right. This will be a sixth win in eight games for Ross

:22:46.:22:56.
:22:56.:22:57.

County. They race up that SPL table. The season just get better.

:22:57.:23:02.

incredible story and Europe looming for them, which could happen. I

:23:02.:23:06.

think they have been feeding or what Inverness has been doing. The

:23:07.:23:13.

two up in that part of the world. You know the fans. Both go to each

:23:13.:23:20.

other's games, with a great rivalry, but friendly rivalry, wanting both

:23:20.:23:24.

teams to do well. Having a remarkable season, needing to

:23:24.:23:29.

establish themselves, strong defensively, but now kicking on and

:23:29.:23:35.

starting to school chorus. -- score goals. Interesting looking at

:23:35.:23:40.

Motherwell, all about collision at the start of the season, and Ross

:23:40.:23:43.

County yesterday, the home team playing all sorts of expansive

:23:43.:23:49.

football. Ivan Sproule has been an inspiring signing. We are all very

:23:49.:23:54.

organised, hard to break down, but five goals in five games, giving

:23:54.:23:59.

them an outlet, one of the fastest players. He is obviously really

:23:59.:24:03.

confident. He has been a big signing for them. Yes occurred

:24:03.:24:09.

setting up the goal. A lovely car finish. -- you see him setting up

:24:09.:24:16.

the goal. Ross County probably got some unjust criticism for being

:24:16.:24:20.

defensive. But they have won six of their last eight games. You cannot

:24:20.:24:25.

criticise them too much. I would not bet too much and Motherwell.

:24:25.:24:29.

They are so up and down, quite incredible, one last week, beaten

:24:29.:24:35.

this week. Some contracts. Two teams at Tynecastle yesterday in

:24:35.:24:40.

desperate and these stash in desperate need of a win. Three

:24:40.:24:50.
:24:50.:24:53.

matches since Hearts came out on a chance for Hearts and Andy

:24:53.:24:58.

Webster. It came to him from Danny Wilson. Andy Webster yet to score

:24:58.:25:08.

this season. Saw it come down to him, but clipped it up and over.

:25:08.:25:12.

Doran trying to go past Webster. A free kick. Hearts captain taking

:25:12.:25:20.

him down. Referee on call to give the decision. Driving in here, Alan

:25:20.:25:25.

Doran. The right leg of Andy Webster. Doran clips it in, and

:25:25.:25:33.

Gary Warren! That is 1-0. Hearts cannot defend. Gary Warren, after

:25:33.:25:43.
:25:43.:25:43.

50 minutes, gives Caley Thistle the lead. It is his third of the season.

:25:43.:25:52.

-- fifth. At the back post! The man who opened the scoring in the

:25:52.:25:55.

Scottish Cup Final for Hearts really should have tapped that in

:25:55.:26:05.
:26:05.:26:11.

for it. Lovely individual skill. Hearts are level thanks to the

:26:12.:26:17.

right foot of Jason Holt. Darren Barr played him in with the

:26:17.:26:22.

challenge from Draper. Look how quickly he wrapped his right foot

:26:22.:26:32.
:26:32.:26:34.

around the wall and dispatched that scored! He brushed off Callum

:26:34.:26:41.

Tapping. Billy McKay on the scoresheet here. A simple ball in,

:26:41.:26:47.

headed across by Draper. Somehow Hearts failed to mark a man who has

:26:47.:26:53.

been the top scorer for Inverness Caley Thistle all season. 22 goals

:26:53.:27:00.

for the season for Billy McKay. The difference so far. Warren trying to

:27:00.:27:09.

see it out. A corner kick. Warren none too happy. He flicked it back

:27:09.:27:19.
:27:19.:27:28.

off his heel and the assistant level. Andy Webster missed a good

:27:28.:27:33.

chance in the first half. Brings Hearts level with 16 minutes to

:27:33.:27:39.

play. A wicked deflection, comes off Danny Devine. Ryan Esson had no

:27:39.:27:43.

chance to move. Four goals in the match. These sides have drawn three

:27:43.:27:48.

times this season. They are level again. Terry Butcher seeking

:27:48.:27:58.
:27:58.:28:05.

clarification from the referee effort, too, from Jamie Walker. The

:28:05.:28:15.
:28:15.:28:18.

Warren is up. That was too easy. Gary Warren, just three minutes

:28:18.:28:21.

after Hearts drew level, has restored the Caley Thistle lead.

:28:21.:28:25.

His second of the afternoon. They run under the ball and Gary Warren

:28:25.:28:35.
:28:35.:28:42.

through for one more chance. Solomon to put the game to bed.

:28:42.:28:49.

Instead hits the ball high in the stands. Quick on the break down,

:28:49.:28:59.
:28:59.:29:07.

They've been brilliant. They'd gone off the boil in January. After the

:29:07.:29:10.

match, they'd been asked by the pressed, would be pleased to get

:29:10.:29:15.

the win after their wobble in January? He said, what war all, we

:29:15.:29:23.

are sitting clean second. They've been superb. They had an

:29:23.:29:29.

indifferent spell. I fully expect them to kick on again now. With

:29:29.:29:36.

Koren again today, Forum's in Drew was a big blow to them. But they

:29:36.:29:41.

got their goal, albeit from set- pieces, which parts will not be

:29:41.:29:51.
:29:51.:29:52.

This is a case of how much do you want to head the ball? At the very

:29:52.:29:58.

last second, Warrener shows a bit more desire. The other big lad, the

:29:59.:30:07.

big striker, he goes in there but He just played the ball into the

:30:07.:30:17.
:30:17.:30:24.

He gets in his road. Instead of clearing the ball, they just bang

:30:24.:30:27.

into each other and that's the end of that. This is a spying mission

:30:27.:30:30.

for you because you got Hearts midweek and then in the League Cup

:30:30.:30:34.

final. Anyone seeing them defending like that with set pieces are going

:30:34.:30:39.

to give them a goal. Yes, we'll be looking at that. I certainly did

:30:39.:30:42.

think that Hearts defence of the world one of the strongest units in

:30:42.:30:48.

the league. Certainly the pairing of Webster and Zaliukas, he's a big

:30:48.:30:51.

mess, he's an inspirational player for them. But they've lost McGowan

:30:51.:30:55.

at right-back. Now the defence isn't looking as strong as it used

:30:55.:31:01.

to. Two home games in five days for St Johnstone. Number one went well.

:31:01.:31:05.

Tuesday night's 1-1 draw. This was part two. St Mirren the opponents

:31:05.:31:15.
:31:15.:31:19.

sides at start of play. St Johnstone with dreams of finishing

:31:19.:31:29.
:31:29.:31:37.

second, St Mirren are currently off. The striker looking nonplussed

:31:37.:31:42.

with his Evatt. The St Johnstone boss, Steve Lomas, called for

:31:42.:31:46.

composure from the home side and they did begin to create chances.

:31:46.:31:50.

When McLean went down in the box, the St Mirren defender was adamant

:31:50.:31:56.

there had been no contact. What we got was the referee booking a

:31:56.:32:03.

Powerful and fast. McLean has been doing a great job for them. I

out of the net? Cammy Bell with a crucial touch. It looked odds-on

strike! He may not be the most prolific of goalscorers, but when

:36:35.:36:42.

he does score it's inevitably a beauty. Cammy Bell just stood and

Bell. He really has been the difference today. Keeping his side

:39:21.:39:31.
:39:31.:39:51.

I think this refereeing decision takes the biscuit. Absolutely. It

:39:51.:39:54.

was an absolute Stonewall penalty. I couldn't believe he didn't give

:39:54.:40:01.

It was a bad touch from the goalkeeper, then he goes and

:40:01.:40:06.

books... It's astonishing. Looking at this on Monday morning, you've

:40:06.:40:13.

got to be saying, why did you do this? In fairness to Cammy Bell,

:40:13.:40:16.

when the ball was getting passed back to him, he does take a heavy

:40:16.:40:20.

touch. If he lets me gained just take the ball, when he takes the

:40:20.:40:27.

ball away he's going nowhere really. That wouldn't be on his mind.

:40:27.:40:31.

Interestingly, this was Cammy Bell. That was a red card, which was

:40:31.:40:36.

subsequently wiped from the record. I was on the programme the night we

:40:36.:40:42.

did this. I think we said it was definitely a penalty. It was the

:40:42.:40:49.

same referee? Maybe that was in his mind. Kenny had a bit of a goal in

:40:49.:40:54.

the press about it. What are you suggesting? I'm just saying it

:40:54.:40:59.

might have been in his mind. Maybe I'm out of order by saying it. I've

:40:59.:41:02.

got to try and find some sort of reason why he didn't give that

:41:02.:41:06.

penalty. No one has ever stopped you from saying what you like!

:41:06.:41:13.

Cammy Bell was a bit fortunate but he made some great... He was the

:41:13.:41:17.

difference between the two teams. He reminds me of that fantastic

:41:17.:41:22.

goalkeeper that Rangers used to have. Same style, same build. Small,

:41:22.:41:26.

not the biggest goalkeeper but he comes off his line so quickly. That

:41:26.:41:30.

was a great save it. The second one as a double save. Fantastic. That

:41:30.:41:39.

is what keeps the team in the game. He's an exception. He's not the

:41:39.:41:42.

biggest, doesn't really deal with crosses in the box. You've got to

:41:42.:41:45.

set your team up in a certain way for him to play and be effective,

:41:45.:41:50.

but he certainly makes great saves. The Kilmarnock fans would love him

:41:50.:41:53.

to stay longer up. They are justifiably excited at the moment

:41:53.:41:59.

about the signing of this man, the record SPL goal scorer, Kris Boyd,

:41:59.:42:02.

leading some impressive names in his wake. He signed with Qamar

:42:02.:42:06.

Ahmed until the end of the season. He was sitting in the stand at

:42:06.:42:10.

Rugby Park yesterday watching that 1-1 draw with Aberdeen. Bringing

:42:10.:42:17.

back memories for Kilmarnock fans of this type of finish. He's a goal

:42:17.:42:21.

machine, especially in the SPL. It's an inspired signing.

:42:21.:42:24.

Kilmarnock have been skilfully working their way up the league and

:42:24.:42:27.

are in a really good position now. One of a clutch of teams, there's

:42:27.:42:32.

eight teams were been four points of 2nd. They will have their eye on

:42:32.:42:37.

that. What a bonus it is to get a player of Kris Boyd's calibre. Just

:42:37.:42:40.

when Heffernan is really coming into form as well. It's something

:42:40.:42:49.

to think about. Playing balls into him, the width of the box, Viduka

:42:49.:42:54.

was a typical type of player with that, play the ball into him, score

:42:54.:42:59.

goals, finish. So he's going to be a real asset to Kilmarnock. James

:42:59.:43:05.

McFadden has signed on. It's almost like a flashback from five or six

:43:05.:43:10.

years. Again, two players, great for the profile of the SPL.

:43:10.:43:13.

really hope he can get back to the level he was at previously. I think

:43:13.:43:17.

he just needs games. He said really little much time. If he can get

:43:17.:43:22.

back... That was always the problem for him, his fitness. But it's a

:43:22.:43:25.

great bonus for Scottish football. In the last decade he's probably

:43:25.:43:30.

one of the most exciting talents we've had. Ross County have

:43:30.:43:34.

benefited from Ivan Sproule. Thomson is training with Hibs, I'm

:43:34.:43:39.

Mucha if he can sign for them. It's such a tight league. They are all

:43:39.:43:43.

looking for an edge. It's great to see two players, both of them are

:43:43.:43:49.

29 years old. We are looking forward to seeing how they do.
