:00:51. > :00:55.
:00:55. > :00:59.are back in front. It is the Old Just another Sunday? I don't think
:00:59. > :01:03.so. It was Old Firm time at Ibrox and Celtic have the chance to win
:01:03. > :01:13.the title at the home of their biggest rivals. And this man was

:01:24. > :01:29.Yes, Fletcher! Harm Done Iraq's -- Hampden erupts. Lots of people will
:01:29. > :01:33.join me in asking how you are, you're suffering from also that of
:01:33. > :01:39.colitis, and you have not played since November. How are you
:01:39. > :01:44.feeling? I am doing OK, I am slowly but surely listening to the medical
:01:44. > :01:50.people in charge and trying to get myself right again. The challenge
:01:50. > :01:54.and focus is being ready for next season. How bad does it get?
:01:54. > :01:59.proved difficult to play under those conditions. I tried for a
:01:59. > :02:06.long time and it was proving very difficult, not just to play, but
:02:06. > :02:11.for my health in general, so me and the medical team decided it would
:02:11. > :02:16.be better if I tried to get myself right during an extended period out
:02:16. > :02:19.from the game and try to come back fully fit, and ready to play.
:02:19. > :02:27.not just about football, it is about the bigger picture and your
:02:27. > :02:33.future. Do you feel any uncertainty about what lies ahead? A little bit.
:02:33. > :02:39.It is an unpredictable illness. Udimore -- you do not know what the
:02:39. > :02:46.future holds. I have had great support from everyone in Scotland
:02:46. > :02:51.than down in Manchester, my family, and I am positive that I will be
:02:51. > :02:55.back to my best. You have been coaching Manchester United reserves.
:02:55. > :03:02.Yes, I have been enjoying that, it is something that I have always had
:03:02. > :03:06.a keen interest in, passing on advice to young players, so passing
:03:06. > :03:11.on advice to these young players, and it also gets me out of the

:03:15. > :03:21.Celtic could complete an amazing title turnaround by becoming
:03:21. > :03:25.champions with an Old Firm victory. Rangers in turmoil, still in

:04:26. > :04:26.
:04:26. > :04:31.Good passing from the hosts. Sone Aluko has got that through the legs
:04:31. > :04:40.of Thomas Rogne, and that is still Sone Aluko, a brilliant! A
:04:40. > :04:45.magnificent goal from Sone Aluko. Rangers have a deserved lead. What
:04:45. > :04:55.a one from Sone Aluko. It all opened up for him. And he takes
:04:55. > :04:55.

:05:27. > :05:34.not catch that well at all. Allan McGregor took no chances. What a
:05:34. > :05:36.one from Georgios Samaras. Celtic trying to get back on terms quickly.
:05:36. > :05:45.Samaras got away from Carlos Bocanegra and Maurice Edu, the

:07:20. > :07:23.
:07:23. > :07:33.Wanyama, and he is going to go, here, as well. Celtic are down to
:07:33. > :07:42.nine men. Not what they needs. But it is a two-footed challenge
:07:42. > :07:52.despite the fact that he won the ball, he had to go. Sone Aluko

:07:53. > :08:03.fears that one past the post -- fizzed that one. Neil Lennon sent

:10:03. > :10:12.And it is 3-0. Celtic might well win the title, it is only a matter

:10:37. > :10:41.- defiance. Thomas Rogne could not find the target. It is turning out
:10:41. > :10:46.to be a very disappointing month for Celtic, that none ending at
:10:46. > :10:54.Aberdeen, losing the League Cup final last weekend. That is a
:10:54. > :11:03.penalty. Carlos Bocanegra with the challenge. Three minutes left.
:11:03. > :11:07.Carlos Bocanegra will be sent off as well. 10 against nine. It looks
:11:07. > :11:12.too late to have any end of the impact on the game although Celtic

:11:20. > :11:29.penalty. Likely to be the only consolation but that is as good a

:11:39. > :11:39.
:11:40. > :11:48.goal of the season. That is a free kick. Three minutes of stoppage
:11:48. > :11:55.time, still to play. Kris Commons, to Thomas Rogne, and it is 3-2. It
:11:55. > :11:59.has surely come too late for Celtic. Nine men making a good fist of it
:11:59. > :12:09.in the last dying seconds of the game. A second goal for Celtic, but
:12:09. > :12:19.
:12:19. > :12:24.It has been a strange season, but the performances against Celtic
:12:24. > :12:28.here Karpin the high points. congratulate Rangers on their
:12:28. > :12:32.victory. I have no problem but there were difficult circumstances
:12:32. > :12:36.and how they might one. Are we did not want to win the game to stop
:12:36. > :12:39.Celtic winning the title. He wanted to win the game because we are
:12:39. > :12:43.playing the biggest rivals and one of the biggest fixtures of the
:12:44. > :12:50.season. The first one is not a sending off, the second one is
:12:50. > :12:56.borderline. It is a joke. I spoke quite quietly with the referee. I
:12:56. > :13:00.did not swear, I did not. My finger. I have got witnesses. I did my team
:13:00. > :13:10.talk at half-time and I got pulled into the referee's room and told I
:13:10. > :13:13.could not do my job. It would not be an Old Firm match without it
:13:13. > :13:17.being some talking points. How did that compare in terms of
:13:17. > :13:23.atmosphere? Fantastic atmosphere. Both sets of fans caught behind
:13:23. > :13:30.their own site. There was little negativity towards the opposition.
:13:30. > :13:35.Each side wanted to celebrate their own players. It was about Celtic
:13:35. > :13:38.homing in on the title and Rangers fans hoping that their club was
:13:38. > :13:43.still alive. What do you make of the financial problems at Rangers
:13:43. > :13:47.and their effect on the Scottish game? It is not good for the
:13:47. > :13:51.Scottish game. As a neutral, you want to see them come out of it.
:13:51. > :13:57.You feel sorry for the fans and the players and the staff involved, but
:13:57. > :14:01.the fans caught behind their team, gave supporter Rangers, same as the
:14:01. > :14:05.Celtic fans, their in a carnival atmosphere because they thought
:14:05. > :14:13.Celtic would win the League 2 day and they will go on and win the
:14:13. > :14:16.league but could not just do it today. How important was early Park
:14:16. > :14:21.of the match, with Sone Aluko finding pockets of space between
:14:21. > :14:26.the Celtic defenders? It was the real difference in the first half.
:14:26. > :14:31.He was finding pockets of space in behind the Celtic defence.
:14:31. > :14:36.Difficult to pick up. He had a few chances before he eventually scored.
:14:36. > :14:42.He was a real handful for Celtic. Lee Wallace could have done better
:14:42. > :14:49.with that. And what composure at the end of this one to find the
:14:49. > :14:55.finish. It is a fantastic goal. The build-up is fantastic. He slows
:14:55. > :14:58.down and comes inside, and on his weaker, right foot, after all that
:14:58. > :15:04.hard work, he got there and finished off the chance
:15:04. > :15:07.fantastically well. Goalkeepers can have a big say in the outcome of
:15:07. > :15:12.autumn games. You know Allan McGregor will from Scotland duty.
:15:12. > :15:17.He pulled off a couple of important saves. He saves things that you do
:15:17. > :15:21.not expect them to save sometimes. That is a great save, that may drop
:15:21. > :15:25.in, and he gets back to put it over the bar. He is a fantastic
:15:25. > :15:32.goalkeeper. I have worked closely with him and the Scotland squad.
:15:32. > :15:35.You see him in training. That is another fantastic save. What do you
:15:35. > :15:45.make of those red cards were Celtic? That the referee get it
:15:45. > :15:47.
:15:47. > :15:53.The I think in a letter of the law he gets it right. I think the first
:15:53. > :15:59.one is definitely a bit soft, but there is contact. Lee Wallace goes
:15:59. > :16:04.down when he feels the contact. It is outside the box. But the key is
:16:04. > :16:11.denied a goalscoring opportunity. What about the attitude between the
:16:11. > :16:17.two matches -- between the two teams? Or Rangers simply better a
:16:17. > :16:24.to the blocks today? I think Rangers had more to get out of the
:16:24. > :16:29.game today. They think stopping them winning the league today at
:16:29. > :16:36.Ibrox was a big thing for them. You could see that in their attitude
:16:36. > :16:41.throughout the match. A great sign about the future for Rangers was
:16:41. > :16:46.the performance of Reece McCabe. Right at the heart of the
:16:46. > :16:54.performance was a 19-year-old. technique in his passing was
:16:54. > :17:00.fantastic. For such a young lads to go into such a hostile atmosphere,
:17:00. > :17:04.to show that composure, I thought his performance was really mature.
:17:04. > :17:10.Great for a hundred little to come off the bench and score with his
:17:11. > :17:15.first touch. It was an important goal because it was their second.
:17:15. > :17:20.As far as Neil Lennon is concerned, he has a problem with this because
:17:20. > :17:24.he reckons there was an offside. will only be an offside if Kyle
:17:24. > :17:34.Lafferty gets it touched. It is very difficult to see if he does
:17:34. > :17:36.
:17:36. > :17:40.get a touch. His movement, by Andrew Little, was fantastic.
:17:40. > :17:46.is Lee Wallace winning the ball, then charging forward. It was a
:17:46. > :17:52.great goal, wasn't it? Yes, he deserved it for his performance
:17:52. > :17:57.today. Up and down that left wing. The weight of the past year from
:17:57. > :18:02.Steven Davis is fantastic. That makes the goal. And thoroughly
:18:03. > :18:07.deserved goal for him. A great comeback from Celtic. It was pretty
:18:07. > :18:13.impressive. It all started off with the third red card of the match,
:18:13. > :18:21.with Carlos Bocanegra. A great attitude from Celtic. For nine men
:18:21. > :18:29.to get two goals back shows great spirit. I think he was a little bit
:18:29. > :18:34.unfortunate. But the key tries to pull out of the challenge. There is
:18:34. > :18:39.slight contact and it is a penalty. You can see Carlos Bock an
:18:39. > :18:45.aggressive start to slide, realises he is not making and then tries to
:18:45. > :18:51.pull out. By the letter of the law it is a red card. This was a great
:18:51. > :18:58.header by Thomas Rogne. I great cross as well. A fantastic,
:18:58. > :19:01.powerful header. Celtic will be frustrated by what happened today.
:19:01. > :19:06.Looking at the big picture, Celtic will win the title by a country
:19:06. > :19:12.mile. Argue impressed about the quality of the squad assembled by
:19:12. > :19:18.Neil Lennon? It is fantastic. A difficult start, but they have come
:19:18. > :19:24.on strong. He has picked up some fantastic signings. He has shown a
:19:24. > :19:28.real eye for a player. They look very strong. They will be
:19:28. > :19:35.disappointed by two defeats in two weeks, but they will go on to win
:19:35. > :19:45.the title. They have played some fantastic football. Let's look at
:19:45. > :19:50.
:19:50. > :19:55.off. He it was a fantastic run by Lee Wallace. Cha Du-Ri is on the
:19:55. > :20:01.wrong side of him. You can see there was a slight pull. Lee
:20:01. > :20:07.Wallace fills the contact and goes down straight away. By a collector
:20:07. > :20:12.of the law, it was a red card. This one come as soon as you go in with
:20:12. > :20:16.2 ft studs showing it is not a matter red card. This will be
:20:16. > :20:23.disappointing for Celtic. To go down to nine men it is an uphill
:20:23. > :20:33.battle. That made it very difficult. Is it strange that the game should
:20:33. > :20:33.
:20:33. > :20:38.It was not a bad-tempered game. There were not too many bad tackles
:20:38. > :20:41.in the game and it was played in good spirits. I think overall
:20:41. > :20:47.figure game was played at a good tempo with good football being
:20:47. > :20:52.played. It was a great advertisement for Scottish football.
:20:52. > :20:56.The red cards are unfortunate, but by the letter of the lot, they are
:20:56. > :21:02.red cards but referees have to do their job. Rangers have serious
:21:02. > :21:12.competition for runners up spot. Motherwell were hoping to gain
:21:12. > :21:23.
:21:23. > :21:29.the League Cup Trophy cure at Rugby Park. A guard of honour for
:21:29. > :21:39.Motherwell for the League Cup winners. There was triumph and
:21:39. > :21:58.
:21:58. > :22:08.tragedy at Hampden Park. A minute's across. Only just wide. The two

:23:51. > :23:56.Kilmarnock. Maybe finishing in the bottom have but the table this
:23:56. > :24:02.season, but to win to League Cup is a massive achievement for
:24:02. > :24:10.Kilmarnock. It just shows you the confidence that winning a trophy
:24:10. > :24:15.can breed in a team. May stem motions this week for Kilmarnock
:24:15. > :24:20.with the death of Liam Kelly's father, but the Cup when getting
:24:20. > :24:25.hit celebration. What a season Motherwell are having and at
:24:25. > :24:29.Rangers almost certainly not making it into Europe, it looks as if
:24:29. > :24:37.Motherwell will be in the Champions League qualifiers. It is
:24:37. > :24:40.unbelievable when you think about it. To get the chance because of
:24:40. > :24:45.Rangers''s undoing, to get a chance in the Champions League would be
:24:45. > :24:49.exciting times ahead for the Motherwell fans and hopefully bring

:25:13. > :25:16.
:25:17. > :25:24.behind at St Johnstone at the start of the day, plenty was at stake.
:25:24. > :25:31.Jody Morris started the sparring. Would we get any knockout punches?
:25:31. > :25:38.In the 29th minute, hearts swept forward. Jason Holt wasn't just the
:25:38. > :25:43.right place to put hearts into the lead. The 19-year-old on his first
:25:43. > :25:53.start getting his first goal. Didn't he take it well? Things
:25:53. > :25:57.
:25:57. > :26:04.looking good for hearts, but since Johnson had other ideas. The cross
:26:04. > :26:11.was perfectly met by Murray Davidson. The League Four Hearts
:26:11. > :26:20.lasted just five minutes. Into the second half and there was a
:26:20. > :26:30.speculative shot from the edge of the area. Four Hearts, Scott
:26:30. > :26:31.
:26:31. > :26:37.Robinson would try his luck from 20 yards. Then, after a suspiciously
:26:37. > :26:41.high booked, the striker worked his way into the box and went down
:26:41. > :26:46.under the challenge. The Lithuanian defender sticking out the leg,
:26:46. > :26:51.missing the ball, but not the man. There is a school of thought that
:26:52. > :26:55.the man who wins the penalty should not take it, but he clearly didn't
:26:55. > :27:02.attend that school with the Spaniard shooting high into the net
:27:02. > :27:12.to make it two goals to one. His 16th goal of the season. Hearts has
:27:12. > :27:19.
:27:19. > :27:26.do the trick for Hearts. The defence was in disarray, but the
:27:26. > :27:36.final touch was just off target. More frustration, the post and a
:27:36. > :27:48.
:27:48. > :27:55.Aberdeen fans. The cross caused consternation, but it was cleared
:27:55. > :28:05.for a corner. Aberdeen put another ball into the box with useful
:28:05. > :28:13.effect. Gavin Rae with the Scot -- with the shot just wide. It was
:28:13. > :28:23.Inverness who dominated the first 45 minutes. Gregory Tade had a
:28:23. > :28:43.
:28:43. > :28:49.relatively simple task of scoring ran down the right wing, but his
:28:49. > :28:57.cross was punched to safety by the goalkeeper. Things were warming up
:28:57. > :29:07.in terms of matters of discipline as well. Ash will whistle in the
:29:07. > :29:14.direction of Josh Meekings -- a shrill whistle. In the 50th minute,
:29:14. > :29:24.Josh Meekings was sent off. Another yellow card, this time for a foul
:29:24. > :29:28.
:29:28. > :29:37.as you would expect with a man advantage, but Inverness should
:29:37. > :29:42.have made it to Ivan 0. Gregory Tade by now the man with no number,
:29:42. > :29:48.with the replacement sure bereft of his No. 15. Despite their second
:29:48. > :29:55.that dominance Aberdeen struggled to create openings. 1-0-Inverness
:29:55. > :30:01.it finished but it should allay any lingering fears of a potential

:30:20. > :30:24.Tynecastle. They brought four Under 21 players into their team
:30:24. > :30:30.including 19-year-old Jason Hoult who scored their goal. There was a
:30:30. > :30:36.time when Hearts were buying players from abroad. Maybe now
:30:36. > :30:41.youngsters can get into the top team. Fantastic finish their, yes.
:30:41. > :30:45.As you said, for Hearts to bring in young players it is good for the
:30:45. > :30:49.Scottish game and I'm sure fans like it as well. Hearts fans will
:30:49. > :30:54.love to see these young players and will get behind them to progress
:30:54. > :30:58.their career and lots of Scottish clubs should invest in youth,
:30:58. > :31:04.because it pays dividends in the future. They battle for SPL

:32:29. > :32:37.corner kicks has been an Achilles cleared. It drops to Buchanan, he
:32:37. > :32:42.goes down. And it is up in. This is interesting because St Mirren were
:32:42. > :32:46.denied a goal in the replay in midweek because the referee blew
:32:46. > :32:49.for a penalty kick. That could easily have been the spot kick.
:32:49. > :32:58.This time the referee played advantage, despite Buchanan going
:32:58. > :33:08.down. Dunfermline have a crucial leveller. That was Mason. Sampson
:33:08. > :33:15.
:33:15. > :33:19.got down. The keeper clawed at it. Blocked on the line by Graham Carey.
:33:19. > :33:29.Dunfermline, without a victory at home all season, four points adrift

:33:48. > :34:01.
:34:01. > :34:11.Paul McGowan. Good effort. He made his way into the penalty area. Good
:34:11. > :34:16.
:34:16. > :34:25.ball from Hasselbaink. Now, on to heads against Dundee United. --
:34:25. > :34:35.Hibs. Nobody picked up the corner kick. Leigh Griffiths was typed on

:34:36. > :34:46.the angle. -- tight on. Jon Daly goes up for it and Graham Stack has
:34:46. > :34:46.
:34:46. > :34:56.to catch that one over the top. -- touch that one. Gary Mackay Stephen
:34:56. > :34:58.
:34:58. > :35:06.has been terrific so far, today. Just pushed away, great play from
:35:06. > :35:10.Dundee United. Jon Daly, almost getting on the end of this. That is
:35:10. > :35:20.some lovely skill and delight for play. Just couldn't match it with
:35:20. > :35:22.
:35:22. > :35:32.the finish -- delightful play. Beat three players before getting the
:35:32. > :35:38.
:35:38. > :35:43.this. Dusan Pernis comes out. The cross is not the way. Leader of
:35:43. > :35:49.this was shouting for the decision against a goalkeeper. He came out,
:35:49. > :35:59.trying to push the ball away with his hand. Nicking nothing of the
:35:59. > :36:01.
:36:01. > :36:06.return ball. -- making nothing. Johnny Russell has made a good run.
:36:06. > :36:13.He pushes it on to John Rankin, the shot as deflected and it is a goal
:36:14. > :36:19.for Johnny Russell. Dundee United have the lead after 65 minutes, a
:36:19. > :36:24.deserved lead. Johnny Russell and Bob three times, John Rankin with
:36:24. > :36:34.the shot that came back off Graham Stack and it is simply clip in by
:36:34. > :36:46.
:36:46. > :36:53.Johnny Russell. That chance came Gary Mackay-Steven, with the chance,
:36:53. > :36:59.it is through the goalkeeper and in, a mistake by Graham Stack and
:36:59. > :37:09.Dundee United extend their lead. Gary Mackay-Steven has been the
:37:09. > :37:11.
:37:11. > :37:16.best player on the pitch and has Arguably the form team in Scottish
:37:16. > :37:25.football, Dundee United. Gary Mackay-Steven at the moment is a
:37:25. > :37:28.stand-out, every week. His form has been fantastic. The skill,
:37:28. > :37:33.composure and confidence he has shown, he is getting better with
:37:33. > :37:36.each game. He is working with a very good manager who will tell him
:37:37. > :37:40.to go and express himself Andrew can see that he is doing that. That
:37:40. > :37:44.was great skill, and he was unfortunate with the shot. He
:37:44. > :37:50.deserved his goal because he was relentless. He was the difference
:37:50. > :37:52.between the teams. He does everything right. You want to shoot
:37:52. > :37:57.warned Alba cross the goalkeeper and make the goalkeeper work and
:37:57. > :38:03.that was a great finish. When you are on form he can do things like
:38:03. > :38:07.this. Fantastic skill and confidence to try that. To pull
:38:07. > :38:13.that off and try it in a match situation shows how he is on top of
:38:13. > :38:18.his game. Another 21-year-old at Dundee United is doing good things
:38:18. > :38:22.and that is Johnny Russell. Both of them featured for Scotland Under
:38:22. > :38:28.21s against their Dutch counterparts. Johnny Russell is a
:38:28. > :38:32.confident player as well. He has been having a fantastic season and
:38:32. > :38:40.has scored a lot of important goals. Great first touch and the composure
:38:40. > :38:48.to finish it. These young lads are playing with such confidence. That
:38:48. > :38:56.comes from their manager, telling them to go and express themselves
:38:56. > :39:02.and they are going out there and doing it. We can confirm the places
:39:02. > :39:08.in the Scottish Premier League. 18 points in it for Celtic, they might
:39:08. > :39:13.clinch the game -- the title next week, they might not. Rangers and
:39:13. > :39:18.the battle for that runners-up spot. Kilmarnock still with a remote
:39:18. > :39:26.chance of making the top six. It is looking unlikely. Three points
:39:26. > :39:31.between the bottom two Hibernian and Dunfermline. Just talking about
:39:31. > :39:35.Scotland. You must be champing at the bit to get back for club and
:39:36. > :39:40.country, when we see moments like this, playing in the dark blue of
:39:40. > :39:46.Scotland, you must be dying to get back. You cannot describe the
:39:46. > :39:51.feeling of scoring for your country at Hampden Park. That goal should
:39:51. > :39:55.have been the winner but the decisions cost us. I am desperate
:39:55. > :40:01.to get back for Scotland, back to captaining my country, which I take
:40:01. > :40:08.great pride in doing. Mixed feelings about the last qualifying
:40:08. > :40:12.campaign in that there was progress made but ultimately, and successful.
:40:12. > :40:17.Yes, there was progress made and but for some shocking decisions we
:40:17. > :40:23.would have made the play-offs. It was a big ask to win the game but
:40:24. > :40:28.we did not do it. But we put in a good performance. We are going in
:40:28. > :40:31.the right direction, without a doubt. When you do not make it to
:40:31. > :40:36.finals it becomes that more difficult the next time because you
:40:36. > :40:41.move down the seedings. What do you make of the matches coming up for
:40:41. > :40:48.Scotland at the start of the World Cup qualifying campaign? When you
:40:48. > :40:52.look at the overall grip, the teams are tight in terms of ability.
:40:52. > :40:59.Every one of those teams will fancy their chances. There will be a lot
:40:59. > :41:01.of points to play for, a lot of points dropped. The act is a
:41:01. > :41:06.qualification campaign which might go to the Wire with a dog-eat-dog
:41:06. > :41:13.approach. All those teams will be capable of taking points off each
:41:13. > :41:19.other. We start with two home games and that is vitally important we
:41:19. > :41:23.get off to a good start. The focus will be on getting a good start
:41:23. > :41:28.with those two home games at Hampden and then see where it will
:41:28. > :41:33.take us. There is an interesting title is happening so it of the
:41:33. > :41:37.border. I am wondering whether this wily old fox also your team through
:41:37. > :41:43.to the title against the other half of Manchester. Nobody has any more
:41:43. > :41:48.experience. What he has achieved for the club, Manchester United, it
:41:48. > :41:53.would not be what it is today on or off the pitch without Sir Alex
:41:53. > :41:58.Ferguson. He is one of the factors that will be to our advantage in
:41:58. > :42:04.this fascinating run-in. You have gone through a difficult situation.
:42:04. > :42:09.How has he been with you? I could not ask for anything more. He wants
:42:09. > :42:13.me to come back but he knows how important it is for my general
:42:13. > :42:21.health, that I am fine. He told me to take as much time as I need to
:42:21. > :42:31.get myself fit. Embarking on the coaching career, perhaps area than
:42:31. > :42:32.
:42:32. > :42:36.you planned, -- earlier, you could not have anyone better than Sir
:42:36. > :42:43.Alex Ferguson. You could not ask of anyone better, to watch and learn
:42:43. > :42:50.from the best, day in, and day out. What has he got that makes him so
:42:50. > :42:54.special? The experience of having been there, done that, the hunger
:42:54. > :43:02.and desire, you still first onto the training ground every day, that
:43:02. > :43:07.shows great desire to win and to keep winning in the future. Just
:43:07. > :43:11.wrapping up what we spoke about, the big decision coming in the
:43:12. > :43:18.summer in terms of what happens next will do. If I can get my voice
:43:18. > :43:25.back... I will be back next season captaining Manchester United and
:43:25. > :43:35.Scotland. Let's have a look at what comes next in the Clydesdale Bank
:43:35. > :43:36.
:43:36. > :43:43.Premier League. Wednesday night, Inverness against St Johnstone.
:43:43. > :43:53.Next weekend, it will complement of fixtures -- a full complement of

:43:59. > :44:06.If Rangers win against Motherwell it mean Celtic cannot win the title
:44:06. > :44:10.on Sunday. Those two Sunday games, Celtic would love to be able to
