00:25Putting the Be Me headlines of a weekend of unbelievable football.

00:29Celtic are now odds on with the bookies to win the title

00:32after another late winner this time at Kilmarnock.

00:36Cermitis hit the gold trail yet again in another big game

00:40as Rangers close the gap on Hearts.

00:42Motherwell Breeze passed manager-less Aberdeen.

00:45The Scottish Premiership over the weekend delivered 24 goals.

00:49It was blistering and dramatic to say at the very least.

00:53And we want you to give us your thoughts on it as well.

00:55We'll certainly get our teeth into it.

00:58And as ever on the programme, we always like to throw a wee quiz question into you

01:02just to see if you are up on your football knowledge.

01:06And this quiz is fairly straightforward.

01:09I was looking at a little meme that was fired out about FA Cup since 2000.

01:14How many British managers have won the FA Cup since the year 2000?

01:19Ruff, you want to have a go?

01:20Just at the number?

01:22Or how many?

01:23Yeah, that's where the question stays.

01:25I thought you wanted me to name them.

01:26Yeah, three.

01:30I'll go two.

01:32One.

01:33One.

01:34Okay, there you have it.

01:35So we'll give you the answer at the end.

01:37Thanks to Elite, Joinery and Fire Protection for the quiz sponsorship.

01:41We'll give you the answer at the end of the programme.

01:44So, the results, Dundee 2, Livingston 2, Falkirk 2, Dundee United 3, Hibs 2, St Mirren 0.

01:51And then on the Sunday, it was Comarnock 2, Celtic 3, Motherwell 2, Aberdeen 0.

01:55And the game of the weekend, undoubtedly, Rangers 4, Hearts 2.

02:00And what a game it was.

02:02If you were looking for drama in that one at Ibrox, it had it all.

02:05Yeah, absolutely.

02:07And obviously, Hearts started really brightly.

02:10Got an early present off the Rangers, the way they presented that first goal to them.

02:15And then obviously, Rangers kind of responded pretty sharply.

02:20But, you know, you have to give Hearts credit, you know, to go there and get another goal to outjump

02:26John Suter.

02:27You know, I think you'll be disappointed with that one.

02:29But you have to say, Braggers Head is tremendous to generate, you know, the power to beat Jack Butlan from

02:35there on the way back.

02:37And then obviously, they equalised.

02:39But then in the second half, Rangers went into their own.

02:41And I think they ran out worthy winners in the end.

02:43Yeah, were you impressed by them, Ruffy?

02:45Yeah, I was.

02:46Yeah, I thought it was great value for money, you know, for the neutral.

02:50You could see, you know, both teams going for it, which is great.

02:53You know, you don't want somebody going and sitting in and spoiling the game.

02:56Hearts came out and gave as good as they got.

02:58The goals were good as well.

03:00And I think the whole 90 minutes was just entertaining from start to finish.

03:04Yeah, I think it sends a clear signal when Danny Rule was talking after the match.

03:09You know, he was talking about it's nice that there are three teams in the running for the title.

03:13And they're right in the middle of it.

03:15Yeah, they are.

03:16At last I thought it was a must-win game.

03:17I said it in the show on Friday.

03:18I thought Rangers had to win the game.

03:20Just given the whole club confidence, given the fans confidence.

03:23You know, Ibrox sounded as if it was rocking for the first time in a wee while.

03:26And it was a massive game.

03:27It was a massive game for both clubs.

03:28But in terms of Rangers, they had to win it.

03:30They did win it.

03:32And I thought they deserved to win it.

03:33I thought Hearts probably started to brighter.

03:36I think if Hearts could have hung on to the lead a little bit longer.

03:39I think when you go on the Ibrox, you want to go 10, 15, 20 minutes with the lead.

03:43Fans started turning a wee bit.

03:44Rangers got the goal right away.

03:45Then the second goal, you know, Rangers hit back near enough right away as well.

03:49So they didn't keep the lead long enough for the fans to get frustrated.

03:51But I thought Rangers showed a lot of power in the second half.

03:55And overpowered Hearts at times as well.

03:57So they'll be disappointed.

03:59Hearts with the goal.

04:01I thought the goalkeeper, the one that goes on to the bar.

04:04I thought he could have tipped it over the bar.

04:05I think he missed the ball completely when he hit the bar, Ruffy.

04:07And then it came down and then Steinwinder won't sleep tonight.

04:11Yeah, well, I think...

04:13It's really bad.

04:15I've got to just intervene.

04:18I mean, it's such a thin...

04:21REM link to it.

04:24But Steinwinder sleeps tonight.

04:26I knew you wouldn't get it.

04:27No, I never heard that.

04:27Anything south of the Bachelors, you're gone.

04:29No, no.

04:30But he just thought he'd sneak it in there.

04:32No, I thought whoever the Rangers player was there put him under pressure, you know,

04:36to take a swipe at it.

04:37He's got to do better, Ruffy.

04:38He can't put the one under there.

04:40I mean, I thought the Rangers player put his foot in and sort of made it difficult for him.

04:44But no, you don't want him.

04:45You want to clear the line.

04:47There's a few episodes like that, a player's not clearing the lines.

04:50But certainly, no, I think, as you said there, you know, getting back in it and the fans

04:55are up for it, they could feel.

04:57And even when it was 3-2, you could feel the fans pushing Rangers forward and, you know,

05:03you knew there was another one coming.

05:04But fair do's to the big boy, isn't he?

05:06Well, let's be positive about him because the game itself and the programmes right across

05:12the board, I think from the written press to radio and broadcast, you always seek to

05:19try and offer a balance on it.

05:21So fair play to Cermiti.

05:23He gets three.

05:23In a big game again, he steps up to the plate, Alec.

05:26Yeah, and I think, I've been saying for weeks, and I've been saying it on this show, that

05:30see if you get in between the sticks, clearly you're going to have better opportunities to

05:34score goals.

05:34And I thought the one with the header as well was really bright as well.

05:38He was sharp.

05:39Again, hit the first post, scored well.

05:41And then his third one, you know, he just kind of puts his foot through it.

05:44So I think overall, it's encouraging from him because there was question marks, and I

05:48mean serious question marks on this guy.

05:51And it's interesting because the manager's come out and, you know, it's been harsh.

05:55If you're really trapping up with four goals before yesterday, Peter, at the start of February,

06:00regardless of what you're doing, you know, in your link play and your running channels

06:06and so forth, four goals is nowhere near enough.

06:08Yeah, the stats are the thing that kills you.

06:10Absolutely.

06:10And the thing is, if you want to be at Rangers or Celtic, you've got to be having to run

06:14about

06:14the 20-plus mark from any credibility.

06:18You know, the fact is he scored against Celtic too.

06:21Yesterday was a big match as well.

06:23So he's got the credentials to score in the big game.

06:25But see, the big games are great.

06:27But see, the bog standard, run-of-the-mill, bread-and-butter stuff, still go to score goals

06:32in the A games as well because they're just equally as important.

06:34And that's what gets you the 29 goals that gets, you know, teams into the mix and with

06:40a chance to win titles.

06:41Yeah, I totally agree with Ali.

06:42I think if you're a striker for Celtic or Rangers and you're playing 25-30 games a season,

06:46you've got to be hitting 20 goals because you're dominating a lot of the game.

06:49You're playing the game in the opposition's half most of the time as well.

06:52So I think it's consistency for Chermit.

06:54I watched him during the week against Mulder.

06:56I thought he was terrible.

06:57And then he looked electric yesterday.

06:58So it's just getting the consistency every week.

07:00You know, getting to a level and then keeping that level.

07:02You think Nadiri helped him yesterday?

07:04Yeah, I thought he was good.

07:04He was clever.

07:06He dropped him behind him at times.

07:07And I think it was for his first goal or his second goal where he slipped through.

07:11I think he slipped him in.

07:11He got a wee break of the ball.

07:12But then he takes it well because it's easy just to lash at that one.

07:15But he actually just picks his spot.

07:17Yeah, he picks his spot and beats the keeper at his near post.

07:19So I thought he showed great composure.

07:20Can you keep him as a foul there?

07:22I thought it was a good finish.

07:23I didn't beat, but I mean, I thought it was a good finish.

07:26Oh, he's not having it by the way.

07:30You always say a keeper should never get beat at his near post on this show.

07:33You always say that.

07:33No, if you're a goalkeeper, you don't.

07:36One of the things are you don't get beat at your near post, particularly when you're there.

07:39Right.

07:40So you're thinking he's anticipating going to court.

07:42No, I thought he's got to give the striker credit for having the ability to try and get it in

07:50there.

07:50Yeah.

07:50And he did it.

07:51So no, I wouldn't take it.

07:52I thought he took it really, really well.

07:55The strength of Celtic over the past years has been the bench.

07:58I was looking at Rangers' bench yesterday.

08:00It's impressive.

08:02It's really impressive.

08:03I've never seen a Rangers bench that strong for a long, long time.

08:07Yeah.

08:07So out with Jermiti's hat-trick, who impressed you and what do you think was a significant

08:12factor in them getting that way?

08:13I actually like the boy Romans.

08:14I like the way he goes about his business.

08:16He's very efficient, just because of a bit, you know, kind of marauding forward.

08:20But it was interesting because Rangers kind of played a little bit narrower with their

08:24two wider guys, which freed up the flanks.

08:26And I think they got a lot of joy, particularly in the first half, Sterling was getting down

08:29that side.

08:30Romans give and go.

08:31So I was impressed with the actual set-up, the way Rangers went, because it's interesting

08:35because you're always saying, well, how are they going to approach this?

08:38And they almost went like a 4-4-2 with Nadiri just coming off of Jermiti.

08:44I also thought Chigwani in the middle of the park was quite impressive as well.

08:48He looks as if he's a big driving force.

08:51Again, these guys are young players, so I think there's development to be had in them.

08:55Yeah.

08:55Overall, Hearts, I mean, some people are saying the new Hearts were going to bottle it and

09:01Derek McInnes, you know, wasn't going to get the result there.

09:05Hearts don't have the squad.

09:06Just a few of the things that everybody has to say on this.

09:11Hearts are still top of the league.

09:14What did they not do that you thought they should have done?

09:17I thought they didn't defend as well as they could.

09:20I thought in terms of the Rangers' goals, if you look at them, the first goals, I could

09:23play from Rommels.

09:24You know, he gets down the side and then puts a ball to the back post.

09:26You know, but then it's a scramble.

09:29I think the goalkeeper should do better.

09:30The first one, I think, should tip it over the bar.

09:32And then the second one, you could argue near post.

09:34But I just think Hearts defensively looked a wee bit all over the place.

09:37And Rangers opened them up, carved them open, particularly in the second half as

09:40well.

09:40I think the full-back going off so early was a bit of a...

09:44Yeah, I thought that ruined their flow.

09:46They had to change the system a wee bit as well.

09:47And he's been excellent for them.

09:48You can play full-back on in the middle of the part.

09:50So they obviously had a wee bit of a reshuffle.

09:53But I just thought that they had to hold on to the league longer, I think, as well, to

09:58get the Rangers supporters frustrated.

10:00But yeah, listen, they'll tick it off.

10:02It's a game they've lost.

10:03As Derek said, they've lost the battle.

10:06They've not lost the war.

10:06There's still plenty of games left.

10:07And Hearts have got a really, really good run of games coming.

10:10I think three of the next four are at Tynecastle.

10:12And then two away games are against the bottom three.

10:14So they're still banging it, yeah.

10:15You don't think they're out of it?

10:17No, I don't think they're out of it at all, Peter.

10:18But I think if you're looking at momentum, I think you're looking at Celtic and Rangers

10:21now.

10:22Yeah, I think Hearts are going to...

10:23I mean, some...

10:24They could potentially finish third.

10:26I'm speaking to a few jambos who actually think, you know, I mean, the bookies have got

10:29them now as third favourites because of the Rangers and Celtic closing in on them.

10:34But, you know, going up to the split, you mentioned the games here.

10:38They've got winnable games that suddenly they could still have their noses out in front.

10:42It's not a crisis at the minute, Peter, but if they don't beat Falkirk at the weekend

10:45at home, you think bubbles burst.

10:47If they go and beat Falkirk, then they're back in it, Peter.

10:49You know, and they get that confidence back.

10:50If they don't beat Falkirk, you're thinking, this could be the start of them crumbling.

10:53But, there's still a long way to go.

10:56And listen, I wouldn't think we've got to speak about Motherwell's will.

10:58Rule Motherwell out there.

10:59If they win their game on hand, they're seven points behind Hearts as well.

11:02So, it's really, really exciting stuff and you can't really rule anyone out.

11:05Even Hibs are back in at 15 points behind.

11:07I know, I know.

11:08I'm not going to dismiss them because I've been absolutely singing their praises all

11:13season long because that's the way I like to see football played.

11:17They're not going to win it though, but if they did win it, it would just be absolutely

11:20mental, wouldn't it?

11:21You'd need three teams to have an absolute crash.

11:23Yeah, absolutely.

11:25But, the one thing they're doing is they're staying the pace.

11:29You know, they're not dropping away.

11:30They don't look as if their form's dipping.

11:33If anything, they're getting stronger.

11:34You know, as a group, they look as if they're as strong as they can possibly be.

11:37I like the sheet as well.

11:38They're defensively, they're rock solid.

11:40So, they've got good attributes with no shipping, too many goals.

11:44And then, obviously, at the top end, they've got goals across the board, really.

11:47Can you imagine they won it?

11:48Oh, man, it'd be the...

11:49Listen, we'd just build a statue of this game.

11:52We could all just retire.

11:54Yeah, exactly.

11:54It would be incredible.

11:55But see the fact that he's still maintaining.

11:57You know, and I wouldn't say that he's egging it up, I feel like.

12:02But he's just saying, listen, don't rule us out yet.

12:05You know, he's just kind of...

12:06I like the guy's confidence.

12:07I think it's breathing right through the team.

12:11And they're clearly kind of picking up results, Peter.

12:14You're not having it, Raffi, are you?

12:16No, I'm just trying to think off the top of my head.

12:19Have they went to Rangers and Celtic away from home and won games?

12:24The way Hearts have?

12:25They drew with Rangers, did they not?

12:27They drew three each with Hearts right at the beginning.

12:29Yeah.

12:29They lost the last minute to go to Celtic, I think.

12:32Three-two, was it, no?

12:33They beat Celtic 2-0 at home and played them off the park.

12:35Yeah, but they've not done what Hearts have done.

12:37And the Hearts have went to Rangers.

12:39What does that matter?

12:40Well, I think more and more now, I think it looks as if home games now are a given.

12:48It's Rangers, Celtic and Hearts, you've got to win your home games.

12:50We've saw now that away from home, the three of them are vulnerable.

12:54The three of them are vulnerable to drop points.

12:56So I think, I mean, I keep saying it when it comes to the split.

13:00But as soon as that, three home games and two away games are out there,

13:05there's going to be mayhem, unless it's done properly.

13:08You know, I know that you've got to play somebody so many times at home,

13:12so many times away.

13:13But if either, if Rangers or Celtic or Hearts get three games at home

13:17and the other two get two games away,

13:19I think that swings a great advantage to the teams.

13:22Because they're winning other home games.

13:24Motherwell's joint top in terms of points.

13:2631 points at home, Pierre.

13:27Yeah, well, they're away to Aberdeen.

13:30Yeah, so that's a guaranteed three points.

13:35St Mirnaway, Motherwell have got Dundee right at home,

13:38then they're away to Celtic,

13:39then they've got Hibs, Falkirk and then away to Hearts.

13:43It's a few tough ones in there, isn't it?

13:44Yeah, absolutely.

13:45See, the thing is, what are you going to?

13:48They would fancy their chances against the lottery.

13:50Anybody.

13:50Yeah.

13:50I think they'd fancy it against anybody.

13:52So, are you more confident that Rangers can now go on,

13:56on the evidence of what you're seeing now?

13:59Listen, see if you take the points since Danny Rowe came in.

14:02Yeah.

14:02I think he's accumulated more points than any manager through that period.

14:06And again, it's really who can hold their bottle going into this final for long, really.

14:11Because you've still got all these kind of, I think it's so evenly poised.

14:16I've said this for weeks, I feel as if teams can drop points and they're still not out it, you

14:21know.

14:22And then you've obviously got the split where you're going toe-to-toe with someone

14:24and then obviously they'll all be playing against each other but points will be dropped.

14:28So you can't see, I mean, in previous years, just out of curiosity, in the helicopter year,

14:34was there a run that you went on that just was win-win-win-win-win-win?

14:38Can you remember?

14:39No, I think it was towards the 10 games to go, we really kind of focused in.

14:45We got a psychologist in that year as well and we were just going game for game

14:50and then just trying to maintain in and then obviously the split happened

14:54and we were two points behind and we were playing Celtic at Parkhead

14:56and you're thinking to yourself, right, OK, if we won it psychologically, you can turn it round.

15:01But obviously that didn't happen but so it just shows you because each other are all going to do it.

15:06I think it's tighter now than it was in that season that we were playing, Peter.

15:12Yeah.

15:12Because I didn't even look at Motherwell.

15:14There wasn't somebody else in the mix that could do it.

15:16Yeah, and I don't think even if the fourth team, which will be Motherwell this year

15:20as it currently stands at the moment, I think the fourth place could beat the top three

15:24in any given day whereas I think back then I don't think that was possible.

15:28Can I ask you this and just picking up on your point there, what did the psychologist say

15:33and what was the reaction like among the players when the psychologist...

15:36Well, the thing is he did like group work and then he also did individual stuff

15:41and all that and how you saw yourself and role so it was a...

15:43Did you embrace it?

15:44No, when I was 29 I started doing psychology and I thought it was a really big part of the

15:48game, yeah.

15:49If you'd have got me before 29 I'd have told you it was a pile of old tosh.

15:54I'd have been sitting like, oh, psychology!

15:59So, and then I started embracing sports science and all that as well.

16:02Yeah.

16:02So the thing is if you can buy all that stuff and you buy in it, we've got a wee

16:05group

16:05at our place as well who are kind of buying into a lot of that stuff as well.

16:10So it can take you a long way and all you're looking for is just an added advantage.

16:14Just those margins?

16:15That's it, just an added advantage.

16:16And now in contrast, should I move on to the next game or then get Ruffy's thoughts on

16:21a psychologist?

16:22Is there any point?

16:23No, obviously if you've never done it before, there's a can of commenting on it.

16:26Yeah.

16:26You know, I've never ever been anywhere near...

16:29On a downer.

16:29...at a club, you know.

16:31I don't know.

16:33I don't know.

16:34On a downer.

16:35Oh, up is the boy.

16:37Ah, hey, Ruffy.

16:38Oh, I think...

16:38You ever felt low?

16:40Everybody's...

16:40Oh, I think every footballer has felt low.

16:42Yeah, you've never needed us.

16:43Fortunately, I've been able to get out of it myself.

16:47But no, I've never done it before, so it'd be very difficult for me to say no.

16:51Do you know when you talk about psychologists?

16:53When I was a Dundee manager, I had to meet a guy called John Bennett.

16:56And I said, who's John Bennett?

16:57And John Bennett was the Dundee United director.

17:00Oh, yes, that's right.

17:01And I had to go and meet him in a hotel, and he was kind of interviewing me.

17:05And I'm looking at this guy going, what's the relevance here?

17:08And I was chasing down the title on my second season for Hamilton.

17:11And then he says to me, what's your find me?

17:12And he says, yeah, we've got Dr. Cox from Stirling University.

17:17He went, what? Psychologist?

17:19Surely you're the psychologist?

17:20And I went, no, well, if it's good enough for Sir Alex, it's good enough for me.

17:24You know what I mean?

17:25Yeah.

17:25And he blows it.

17:26But, you know, I was like, trying to sell someone a psychologist that didn't think it was a thing.

17:32You know, it was like...

17:32We had a way back in the year dot, Jackie Husband, who was a previous Thistle player.

17:38And Jackie used to do a wee bit of physio stuff.

17:41And before the game, he was into, like, massaging you, you know, to relax.

17:46To relax, you see.

17:47You go into the physio room.

17:48And you're sitting and there's going to be massaging players, heads and all that.

17:52But next thing, you bet they would twinkle, hey, what's happened?

17:57What's happened?

18:00We've had his time.

18:02Well, I'll tell you one thing.

18:03I don't know.

18:04I don't think they need a psychologist at Celtic Park.

18:08They've got the master who somehow manages...

18:11Benointed, Marlon Hill.

18:12I mean, it's just, it's getting to the absolutely bonkers situation.

18:17Now, we will talk about Neil McCann's comments in a minute.

18:21Now, obviously, big game was Rangers Hearts, undoubtedly.

18:27But at Rugby Park, the game itself, I looked up at the clock.

18:33And I'm not in any way any kind of visionary or anything.

18:36I looked up at the clock and it was 82 minutes time.

18:40And I thought to myself, two players down who have been injured for a wee while.

18:45There's been a wee bit of time wasted.

18:47A wee bit of time wasted.

18:48There was a lot of subs.

18:49And I just looked at it and I thought to myself,

18:51OK, there's going to be seven minutes additional time here.

18:54So there's 15 minutes to go.

18:55And I can remember, I walked past an agent and I walked past Kenny Brannigan at half-time.

19:022-0.

19:02Celtic were rotten.

19:04And Neil McCann was 100% correct.

19:08Kelly played really good football.

19:10Got their just rewards.

19:11And I said, you know, if Celtic score early, they'll win this.

19:16Because that's the nature of where they're going at the moment.

19:19And Tam, and so it proved, I mean, Neil McCann was raging with the seven additional minutes.

19:26Did he have any cause?

19:27I don't think so, Peter, because, you know, I watched the game myself.

19:29There was two fairly serious face knocks.

19:32I mean, balls blasted at point-blank range off of two Kamalic players' faces.

19:35They were down for at least two minutes, I thought.

19:38Maybe two and a half minutes.

19:39And then I think there was four or five subs the second half as well.

19:42So, and another thing is, the other teams are allowed to score in the seven minutes as well.

19:45It's not just Celtic.

19:46You know, Kamalic had opportunities on the counter-attack to score as well.

19:50Yeah, and it was a game of basketball.

19:52Celtic were going for the winner.

19:54Kamalic were breaking up the pitch.

19:55So, listen, they just had to see it out.

19:57Kamalic defended the third goal particularly poorly.

19:59We were speaking about it earlier.

20:00He's got to, you know, he can't from a throw-in turn go to the byline and flash it across

20:05the goal.

20:05There's got to be some sort of block.

20:06There's got to be somebody in front of him to stop that.

20:09And Kamalic got what they deserved in the end for that poor defending and the throw-in.

20:13Just a throw-in, a long throw-in in the box, they can't defend that as well.

20:16So they defended those two goals really poorly, Kamalic.

20:18So for all, they were good going forward.

20:20I thought defensively, in those two situations, they were really, really poor.

20:25And Celtic just go to the end, Peter.

20:26We've seen it in the last three games.

20:27You never write Celtic off.

20:29You just think, there's still a minute left, they could score here.

20:31And that's how it proved.

20:32The funny thing was, Ruffy, when I was at the start of the game, when everybody's coming in,

20:38and I'm sitting there in the press box, you know, up-to-walked Pat Bonner.

20:45And I said to him, what do you make of Martin's return?

20:49You know, we're chatting away.

20:50And I said, you know, it's so strange, this side, Pat, because it reminds me of your centenary side.

20:56You know, the Celtic fans are going for a pie at 93 minutes, thinking, I'll come back in for the

21:00late winner.

21:03And that's the way it panned out.

21:07But I mean, at 2-0, the other thing which a lot of people are forgetting is, at 2-0,

21:14Comanek had the chance to go 3-0 in front.

21:16I mean, it was a straight header underneath the bar.

21:18If he heads it down, it's a goal.

21:19Yeah, I mean, that's what I've been saying all along.

21:22It's great to score goals late on like that.

21:24But for me, it might happen one, two, three, four times.

21:27It's not going to happen all the time.

21:29And the evidence is, over 90 minutes, they're not good enough to beat the two teams at the bottom of

21:34the league.

21:35You know, for me, that's what I'm looking at.

21:36I'm looking at, for 90 minutes, cannae beat Livingston, and they cannae beat Comanek.

21:40So there's something drastically along somewhere.

21:43Yeah.

21:44Martin O'Neill, to his credit, came into the press room and said,

21:48listen, we can't keep doing that.

21:50You cannot keep losing goals and then hoping that there's going to be...

21:55And as one of the Daily Record, I think it was the Daily Record Sunday Mail, Swanee,

22:00came up to me and he said, you know, Celtic are just a team of moments.

22:04And I thought it was an interesting point, Alec,

22:06because it's a moment that somebody has to produce something outrageous to get them back in the game.

22:14You know, rather than a team collective where you say, for example,

22:17you know, Brendan Rodgers' team would continually batter you, batter you, batter you, batter you,

22:21pass, pass, pass, pass.

22:22These are moments where Taneke has to come up with a 20-yard curler.

22:27No, but listen, the one thing about it is,

22:29Ruffy was talking about the bench for Rangers.

22:33Taneke, the goal he scored was absolutely tremendous,

22:35and they scored it early enough,

22:36so they were absolutely right because you could see the momentum shift.

22:39And it was a very untraditional Celtic goal with the long throw.

22:44Yeah.

22:44But once they get that, I just felt as if, you know,

22:47the way Celtic play, they continue to probe,

22:49they continue to do the runs in behind.

22:52And Chuan Chara,

22:54the actual skill that he produced for the goal was excellent.

22:58But on the flip side to that,

23:00if you're Neil McCann, you're doing your nutting.

23:02Because...

23:03What should they have done?

23:04Well, you have the midfielder in front,

23:06and then you have the centre-half directly behind him,

23:10and just smother him so that he doesn't have the time to get to the byline,

23:14doesn't have time to kind of receive it into his feet.

23:16But what happens is the centre-half backs off,

23:18and then he just pushes the midfielder out of the road,

23:22kind of rolls out to the byline and flashes up.

23:24But, and at that moment, you think to yourself,

23:26if you just do the basics, the basics,

23:29then they see it out, and then everybody goes,

23:31that's a great point for Kamarnock.

23:33So, regardless of the seven minutes,

23:35I think that would be a source of frustration for Neil.

23:38Because, again, if you recognise that and stop it at the source,

23:41Celtic don't get that opportunity.

23:43And even the long throw,

23:44and it was, I mean, there must have been about five Kamarnock defenders.

23:48No, there's five Kamarnock defenders in there.

23:50When the ball eventually drops,

23:51Nigel is two yards out, roughly.

23:53Yeah, he was fortunate to get a break-off

23:55from one of the Kamarnock defenders.

23:56You know, that you're just looking for somebody

23:59to put their foot through it,

24:00but none of the Kamarnock defenders could do that.

24:02And you have to say it was a very fortunate goal.

24:04You know, he didn't have to do much with it.

24:06It bounced, didn't he?

24:06I thought he'd changed his feet quite well.

24:08I thought he was going to hit it with his right,

24:09but he hit it with his left.

24:11So, no, I mean, that's what it is.

24:13I mean, as the guys are saying,

24:15when you're playing Celtic,

24:16and all of a sudden it's two each,

24:18the reason they're getting these goals

24:19are because the teams they're playing against are saying,

24:21well, two each will do is let's try and see this out.

24:24So they're getting deeper and deeper and deeper

24:26and Celtic are getting forward

24:27and getting more chances, more chances.

24:29That's why they're scoring so late on,

24:31because other teams are trying to save what they've got.

24:34I've seen a stat doing the rounds today.

24:3811 times Celtic have scored in the last five minutes

24:40in all competitions.

24:43And that's not doing,

24:43maybe we go, oh, you kind of keep doing that.

24:45But that's a trend.

24:46That's not just something that happens.

24:47Sometimes if you're scoring 11 out of 30-odd,

24:50whatever games it is.

24:51Yeah.

24:52So you look at that and you think to yourself,

24:54you know, that's some going.

24:55And especially when you're playing against,

24:57say you're playing Hibs or you're playing Hearts,

24:59they'll know that as well.

25:00The opposition will know that.

25:00They'll look at the clock and go,

25:01we've won the luck, we've had five minutes to go.

25:03This game's not done yet.

25:04And Celtic players will believe

25:06we'll get an equalised, we'll get a winner.

25:07Yeah.

25:07And I just think it's that momentum.

25:09You're saying they can't keep doing it.

25:10Well, they can.

25:12They can.

25:13Well, fundamentally,

25:16where is the San Andreas fault here?

25:20Where is the weak link

25:21that they keep making mistakes

25:22to keep going right?

25:23I think Celtic defensively

25:24have been really poor the last few games.

25:25I think the first half,

25:27the two centre-backs got bullied with Jules.

25:30Every cross that came out of the box,

25:31I thought, come on, let me score here.

25:33He scores a great goal, Jules.

25:35You know, cuts inside and puts it in the corner.

25:36But they were all in the place.

25:37Goalkeeper for me as well.

25:39Well, it's interesting because

25:40over the last couple of weeks,

25:42we've gone, he's pulled off

25:42a few really good point-blank saves.

25:45Yeah, I think I'm for the second.

25:46The second one is looped.

25:48And you can't, once you've dived,

25:50you can't move yourself.

25:51You're up in the air.

25:52You know, and it's going to,

25:54momentum isn't going to get you to the ball.

25:56It's not as if you're flinging off your feet.

25:58You're hanging up there.

25:59And it's, it was one of the ones,

26:03once you've turned, you're turned

26:04and you're not going to get it.

26:05Positives on both sides.

26:06He's, again, Tyrese John Jules.

26:10I'm worried for him.

26:11The way he pulled up.

26:12I looked as if he'd pulled his thigh.

26:15A hip flexor or something.

26:15Yeah, something.

26:16And I just hope for Commandant's sake,

26:18because he's been absolutely tremendous.

26:20Yeah.

26:20Eight goals in 18 or 19 games.

26:22Yeah.

26:23That's some gone.

26:23Yeah, absolutely.

26:24And it's not just that.

26:25I thought he led the line well.

26:27Excellent.

26:27I thought overall he was a real handful.

26:29The problem for him is,

26:31he's been injury prone.

26:33And when he started,

26:34I actually think he may have been in tears coming off.

26:38Because he put his top up to his eyes.

26:40He was really...

26:41Peter, as soon as I seen that,

26:43the way that he flicked his mid-drift forward,

26:45I thought he just,

26:46I thought he's the top end of it.

26:48He's either tore his thigh

26:50or something may have come off the tendon.

26:52I just hope it's not too long for him.

26:54Yeah.

26:55The one thing I would say about Commandant

26:57is that,

26:57and Neil McCann was right to point it out,

27:00there are moments in a game for long periods

27:02where they look a right good side.

27:04I mean,

27:04they played for the first maybe 20,

27:0625 minutes at Firth Park against Motherwell

27:08and they played some good football.

27:11He just needs that consistency.

27:13I don't think they'll be...

27:14I can't see them getting...

27:17I can see them getting away from it.

27:18I think he's given them a lift.

27:19I think that's what they needed.

27:20They needed a different voice.

27:22I don't know.

27:22But they look a better team now

27:24under Neil McCann and Dodgy.

27:25They definitely do, Peter.

27:26If they're in the play-off,

27:28Tam...

27:28And at 2-0,

27:30you'd have been...

27:31Stephen Robinson,

27:32Big Elvis,

27:32not to have been sitting going,

27:33let's get on here.

27:35If they're in the play-off,

27:36I'd bet them to stay.

27:37I think if...

27:39I would fancy the second-bottom team

27:42to beat the play-off team

27:42in the Championship

27:43just because

27:44I think it's stacked against the team.

27:46It's stacked against the team

27:47in the Championship

27:48unless you potentially...

27:49Come on, you.

27:50You're the old director there.

27:51Come on.

27:52I'm just giving him an opinion.

27:54Yeah.

27:55I mean,

27:55the great thing about it...

27:58Well, this is the joy of the game,

27:59by the way,

27:59because he's saying that.

28:01Your man here's...

28:01Your man here's sitting

28:03with his manager.

28:03The two of them

28:04have absolutely produced

28:06heroics

28:06for Partick Thistle.

28:08I think St. Johnston

28:09would probably be

28:09the best one in the play-off

28:10after Thistle win the league.

28:12Yeah, what do you make of that,

28:13Robbie?

28:14He dragged himself...

28:14That's a big little crotch.

28:16He dragged himself out there.

28:18Whee!

28:19Whee!

28:20Do you want an invite?

28:21We'll get you a couple of briefs.

28:24A meal as well.

28:25Oh, obviously.

28:27Well, you know,

28:28because you and Mark

28:29are undoubtedly sitting there

28:30saying to yourself,

28:31have you exceeded expectations?

28:33And with that,

28:35can you flip it on again

28:37after that by,

28:38once you answer that question,

28:39say to me,

28:39how difficult do you feel

28:41it is down there?

28:43If you have to play

28:44six games to get to...

28:45Well, I have to be honest

28:46with you,

28:47I haven't really experienced it,

28:48but listen to Mark last year,

28:49it's like,

28:50it's so...

28:51It's so kind of

28:53quick flip around

28:54and then you're asking

28:55players to go again.

28:56So, it is all geared

28:57towards

28:58the Premier League team.

28:59You know,

29:00they have to do

29:00all of the two games.

29:02They tell me that

29:03second place is obviously

29:04a Borussia as well

29:05because you don't have to play

29:06another round of games.

29:07So,

29:08I don't know.

29:08But it's interesting

29:09because the thing is,

29:10it's like,

29:11as I said,

29:12our game was cancelled

29:13the weekend

29:13and I was, what,

29:14flipping back and forth

29:15to the games

29:17St Mirren

29:18and just trying to keep

29:18my eye on

29:19as much football

29:20because you just never know

29:21where it's going to take you.

29:21Kenny says,

29:22this all can beat

29:23St Mirren.

29:24You know,

29:25lots of people

29:26on the feet.

29:27I mean,

29:27a good marker

29:28in the Scottish Cup,

29:28obviously,

29:29you're playing them

29:29just to see

29:30maybe meet them again

29:31in the playoffs.

29:33Yeah,

29:33yeah,

29:33absolutely.

29:34It's so tough,

29:35Ruffy,

29:35to pick somebody

29:36in the bottom end of it.

29:38Yeah,

29:38well,

29:38of the playoffs,

29:40it's only happened

29:40once,

29:41isn't it?

29:41Was it Hamilton

29:42beat Ibs?

29:43Ibs.

29:44I don't think

29:44coming for the fourth place,

29:46you know,

29:46but second place

29:47would be a lot more easier,

29:48you would think,

29:49you know,

29:49obviously,

29:49with the demand

29:50in the games

29:50and Alex Wright,

29:51they come fast and furious,

29:53it's two games in a week,

29:54two games in a week,

29:55so you've got to,

29:57depending on the pool

29:57of players that you've got

29:58and injuries,

29:59suspensions,

29:59all that comes into it.

30:01But I thought

30:02St Johnson sneaked

30:03a wee win

30:04the weekend there,

30:05gave them a wee bit

30:06of breathing space,

30:06but they've got

30:07a hard one,

30:09I think they're all

30:09hard games,

30:10but they've got

30:11a harder game

30:12this week

30:12than I think

30:13what yous have got,

30:14yous are at home

30:15against their day,

30:16I'm just looking

30:16at the fixture list.

30:17Yeah.

30:18So,

30:19I don't think

30:20that first place

30:21has done a dusset.

30:22Yeah.

30:23Listen,

30:23if we were talking

30:23about positives,

30:24I also like the boy

30:25Thompson

30:25left back for Kelly.

30:28Did you not think

30:28for the second one

30:31and he's trying

30:31to usher it out

30:32but it's not going out?

30:33And it's not going out,

30:33I know,

30:34I know,

30:34that was the one moment,

30:36Alex,

30:36I have to say,

30:37it was the one moment

30:37where I looked

30:38and I thought,

30:41he plays so well,

30:42he gets forward,

30:43he can get good balls

30:44into the box,

30:44that was the one moment

30:45where I thought to myself,

30:47the ball was never going out,

30:47I know,

30:48I know,

30:49I know,

30:50can you tell his face,

30:52he knew himself,

30:53he's like,

30:55I hear that,

30:55I like him as a player,

30:57listening to my ball

30:58like a boo-boo

30:59at one point or another

31:01and he knew it himself

31:02because he'd have,

31:03you know,

31:03that thousand yard stare

31:04as if to say,

31:05somebody's going to

31:05clobber me for not doing

31:07the right thing there.

31:09Celtic manager makes

31:11three changes at half-time

31:12that were so significant

31:14in the game,

31:15I mean,

31:15you can see the class actor

31:16is Alex Oxlade,

31:18Chamberlain,

31:19Chavanchara

31:19and Teneke

31:21and they make the difference,

31:23the problem I have

31:24with that change

31:25is the three players

31:26that come off

31:27and Hatati just looks

31:29a spent force.

31:30I don't know what's going on

31:30with him and Maida,

31:32they just don't let interest

31:33at Celtic anymore,

31:34particularly Hatati,

31:35I've watched him

31:36the last couple of games

31:36and he looks as if

31:38he'd rather be anywhere else

31:39bar Celtic,

31:39so that's a problem,

31:40especially when Engel's injured,

31:42you know,

31:42so you won't need to

31:43How long is he out for that?

31:44March, I think.

31:45March, end of March.

31:46I think he's going to be out

31:46for 46 weeks,

31:48so yeah,

31:49it's a problem

31:50because you're quite light

31:51in there now

31:51and you need a Hatati firing,

31:53Hatati's one of the best players

31:54in the league if he's firing

31:55but he hasn't been all season

31:56so it might be an opportunity

31:57for Oxlade-Chamberlain

31:58to come in and start

31:59starting games now.

31:59And last point,

32:02if you score a last-minute goal,

32:03are you jumping into

32:05the Celtic end?

32:07I think they're jumping in

32:08anywhere,

32:08particularly the last kick

32:09of the ball.

32:09I thought it was a great finish

32:10as well on his weaker foot

32:11and on that asfoturf,

32:12it's a great cutback

32:13but if you get that wrong

32:14at all, you sky that.

32:15I thought he finished

32:16it really well

32:17and then I think

32:18the emotion of that

32:19you're getting into the crowd

32:19and I've seen somebody

32:20try to take a selfie

32:21and all that and all that.

32:24Have you ever done that?

32:25You get a phone away.

32:27Do you know the thing is

32:28I've managed to get

32:28a few goals in my career

32:30and I always used to,

32:31the one that used to

32:31always bug me

32:32and I mean really bug me.

32:33See people around

32:33and we can go

32:35kissing the jersey

32:35and obviously taking

32:37the top off

32:37and getting one aim

32:38I used to go,

32:38see if I ever did that,

32:40somebody just came up

32:40and punched me

32:41right in the dish

32:42and there was one time

32:42I scored a three.

32:46Three-nil down

32:46we were at half-time

32:47against Portsmouth.

32:49I was a relegation dogfight.

32:50For you for Wolves?

32:51For Wolves.

32:52Come back out

32:52in half the stadium

32:53would be a line

32:54for the boozers, right?

32:55And I scored

32:56one of the ones

32:57you get back across to them

32:58a bit like Braggers yesterday,

33:00boom,

33:00back at a big dolly

33:01behind the goalkeeper

33:03and I've just went like,

33:03that would a tap off.

33:08It was the first time

33:09I know the goal.

33:09You just punch yourself.

33:10Oh, what?

33:13See when I,

33:14honestly I go,

33:15what are you doing, man?

33:16And then I found myself

33:16getting it one of them.

33:17I know,

33:18I'm not having

33:18kissing the badge stuff.

33:19Oh no, no, no,

33:19I just,

33:20I use a load of crap

33:21then five minutes

33:21you're away at another club.

33:22I don't get it now.

33:23Yeah, absolutely.

33:25Anyway,

33:26from there,

33:27one other game

33:29that was on

33:29on the Sunday

33:30and it was three

33:31magic games

33:32and then of course

33:33fantastic goals

33:34scored again

33:35on the Saturday

33:36but Muddle

33:37to Aberdeen nil.

33:38Aberdeen managerless.

33:39I am highly critical

33:41of this whole charade

33:42that's going on

33:43at the moment.

33:44I just think

33:46Aberdeen

33:46should have ambitions

33:47to try and get

33:48in that top six.

33:49I think Muddle

33:49killed them off

33:50and again,

33:52Eli just...

33:53it looks as if

33:54they're just

33:54kind of writing

33:54off the season

33:55they're just thinking

33:55we'll look ahead

33:56to next season

33:57there's somebody

33:57obviously out there

33:58who's going to

33:58come in in the summer

33:59and they're just

34:00thinking we'll wait

34:00for him.

34:01I thought Aberdeen

34:02played well

34:02judging by the highlights

34:03I thought Nisbet

34:04looked lively

34:05but unlucky

34:06we won off the post.

34:07Aberdeen had opportunities

34:08in the game

34:08I thought they played

34:09pretty well

34:09but Motherwell

34:09just churned

34:11their out wins

34:11I don't think

34:12they were at their best

34:13but Eli just

34:14great finish

34:14great first touch

34:15actually a great ball

34:16through

34:17just battered into him

34:18right through the lines

34:19fired into him

34:20takes a touch

34:20and finishes it

34:21and then they get

34:21the one at the end

34:22when Aberdeen

34:22are pushing forward

34:23but just another

34:25routine win for Motherwell

34:26and as I said

34:27they're not a million miles

34:28off the top three

34:29or four now

34:29and they'll be looking

34:30to try and catch them

34:31but for Aberdeen

34:34they've got to play

34:35for the Scottish Cup

34:35now because I don't

34:36see them getting

34:36to the top six.

34:37Do you know the thing

34:38that they do really well

34:39Alec

34:40is they have

34:41breaking midfielders

34:43who actually

34:44time the run

34:45to run beyond

34:46a back line

34:47that's tight

34:47to get those

34:48little spaces

34:49and just has done that

34:50to great effect.

34:52One of the things

34:52is a little combination

34:53to Peter

34:54run about the balls

34:54you know the little

34:55give and goes

34:55I watched that

34:56again last week

34:57against Rangers

34:58the little give and go

34:58at the edge of the box

35:00and when you've got

35:00players that are

35:01cute enough to do that

35:03they cause opposition

35:04so much problems

35:05and it's midfielders

35:07who want to get goals

35:08as well

35:08which I like

35:09because the thing is

35:10it's another

35:10string to your bow

35:13I'm looking at

35:14Aberdeen at the

35:15moment

35:15and it's again

35:16and I don't know

35:18the circumstances

35:18but from the outside

35:20I'm looking at it

35:20and I'm thinking to

35:21myself

35:21see if I was an

35:22Aberdeen supporter

35:23I would feel as if

35:24I was being sold

35:25a little bit short

35:26partly because

35:28they've waited

35:29what was it

35:30the beginning of

35:30January

35:31he left

35:32wasn't it

35:33so you've

35:34pretty much

35:34it's about

35:3544-45 days

35:37and that's what

35:37I'm saying

35:37so the turn

35:38of the year

35:40but by the way

35:41it doesn't have

35:41to put pressure

35:41on a new guy

35:42coming in

35:42to hit the ground

35:44because they've

35:44waited this long

35:45for this guy

35:45to be appointed

35:46and they've got

35:47a big squad

35:48and I get that

35:49I look at some

35:49of the players

35:50and I've obviously

35:51brought Tommy Dock

35:52in to assist

35:53with Peter

35:54but it looks to me

35:55as if they're just

35:56seeing their way

35:58and stuttering

35:59towards the summer

35:59really

36:00and if they get

36:01knocked out of the

36:02cup

36:02and they come in

36:03Wednesday night

36:04I think

36:04is that what it is

36:05Aberdeen

36:06against Motherwolf

36:07if you get out of that

36:08then your season's done

36:09because the top six

36:10is not attainable

36:11for me

36:12no exactly

36:12another thing about it

36:13Ruffey is

36:14some fans are looking

36:14and saying

36:15I'm not going to

36:16bother going there

36:17that's the problem

36:18with it

36:18yeah and I think

36:20in all fairness

36:20of the other teams

36:21I think the Aberdeen

36:22away support

36:22has been very very good

36:23if that stops

36:24that's money

36:25you know

36:26other teams losing money

36:27their support

36:28no coming to away games

36:29and that'll happen

36:30if you're in Aberdeen

36:31you're going to go

36:31well nothing to play

36:33for why am I travelling

36:33away down to Glasgow

36:34where am I going there

36:36so it is a difficult one

36:37you know

36:38but I mean

36:38within light of

36:40the managers

36:41that I've had

36:41and it's no worth

36:42maybe this is the case

36:44we're going to wait

36:45because we think

36:45we've got the right man

36:46but as Alex says

36:47he's got to be the right man

36:48when he comes in

36:49Willie says

36:50when Motherwell are favourites

36:51the Bataudry

36:52it must be worrying

36:53as a Dons fan

36:54and I fancy

36:55Motherwell to knock them out

36:57yeah

36:57no other than a good thing

36:58see the thing is

36:59at the weekend

37:00they did create chances

37:00so you think to yourself

37:02listen

37:03get a decent crowd

37:03behind us

37:05and then just try

37:06and have a go

37:06and try and get through

37:07because

37:07what you're a couple of games

37:08away for a final

37:10yeah

37:10so you know

37:11it's no

37:12that's the way

37:13I'd be trying to say

37:13let's see if I was

37:14Tony and Peter up there

37:15I'd be trying to say

37:16listen

37:17let's double down

37:17on the Old Cup

37:19you know

37:19just put everything

37:20into that

37:20and then hopefully

37:21you can get through

37:22but

37:22if they'd go out

37:24it's the other side

37:24of the coin

37:25it's like

37:25you're just going

37:26through the motions

37:26to the final day

37:28the winners of this tie

37:28played in Ferman

37:29is that right?

37:30mhm

37:30away

37:30so

37:32not an opportunity

37:33for a Motherwell

37:33or Aberdeen

37:34to get

37:35disrespect to Ferman

37:36or Lenny

37:36but

37:36being a championship team

37:38to get a chance

37:38to go to a semi-final

37:39yeah

37:40ok

37:42give us your thoughts

37:43on it

37:43Aberdeen fans

37:44can you get the win

37:45on Wednesday

37:46is the season

37:47maybe a damp squib

37:48for you now

37:49do you think

37:50the Dons fans

37:50will start to drop off

37:52when it comes to

37:54the tail end of the season

37:55because

37:55we have been talking

37:57roughly continually

37:58about how top

37:59middle and bottom

38:00is alive

38:00I don't think

38:02middle is alive

38:04no no

38:04I think Falk

38:05have spoiled

38:06everybody else's chance

38:07with the form

38:08that they've had this year

38:09you know

38:10and a fair amount

38:12of points in the bag

38:13you know

38:13they'd have to

38:13go in a

38:14a very very bad run

38:15but their incentive

38:17is to get in that top six

38:18you want to be

38:19trying against

38:20Rangers Celtic Hearts

38:22and it'll be the same

38:22with the Motherwell players

38:23as well

38:24you get in the top six

38:25you're playing in big games

38:26big crowds

38:27you know

38:28that goes with it

38:29and that's what

38:30they'll be hoping for

38:30for an end of the season

38:31was it a wee surprise for you

38:32Ruffey Falk

38:33losing to Dundee United

38:35no

38:37now we've brought that

38:39subject up

38:39you know

38:41it's not fair

38:42this is fair

38:43that the two of you

38:43are pretty happy

38:47anybody who listened to the show

38:49on Friday

38:49there was people on there

38:51telling me to punch him

38:52and him

38:53you know

38:54because of the disdain

38:55of my predictions

38:56yeah

38:57scandalous

38:58yeah you're not

38:58but you got it right

38:59I have to be

39:01perfectly honest

39:02I think the sending off

39:03helped me a wee bit

39:04I thought Falk had decided

39:05to take something out the game

39:06but we'll probably talk about that

39:08well that's what we're on to now

39:10I'm just about to say to you

39:11the sending off for me

39:12I thought the pace

39:13the boy was at Waters

39:14wasn't it

39:14it was going through

39:15I think

39:16I don't think

39:17either of the two Falker boys

39:18on either side

39:19would have been

39:20got to him

39:21before he got the 18-yard

39:22before he got shot away anyway

39:23my god

39:24I thought it was harsh

39:26it's a long way

39:27I bet if he gets away from him

39:28and he's beelining

39:31I'm not sure he catches him

39:33VAR

39:33you got it right

39:34yeah

39:35I would suggest he did

39:37it's interesting

39:37because obviously

39:38the on-field referee

39:39gave a yellow on the day

39:41and then

39:41that's the idea of VAR

39:43and

39:44again

39:44you get a good

39:46look at it

39:47because

39:47if VAR's not there

39:50the old days

39:50you go

39:51oh he's got a long way to go

39:52but the pace of these guys

39:54are moving it as well

39:55down in England

39:56with the FA Cup

39:57with no VAR

39:57they're now

39:58very seriously

39:59saying to themselves

40:00listen

40:02should we be limiting

40:04there in the English Premier League

40:05and usually when you get

40:06the big leagues

40:07when you get the big five

40:08coming together

40:09they're saying

40:10there needs to be

40:11a full review

40:12in the summer

40:13maybe

40:14after the World Cup

40:15or whatever

40:16to review

40:17what we're using

40:19VAR for

40:20is that something

40:21you'd embrace?

40:23yeah

40:23listen

40:24the thing is

40:24there's times

40:25there's an example

40:26last week

40:27VAR intervened

40:28with the Man City

40:29everybody in the place

40:30would have been happy

40:31City got the goal

40:31but then they end up

40:33sending Sloboslai off

40:35come on

40:36do you know what I mean?

40:37yeah

40:37it's like

40:38I think common sense

40:40goes out the window

40:40in these situations

40:42listen

40:43I don't mind VAR

40:45I really don't

40:47and again

40:47sometimes VAR

40:48will get it wrong

40:49because again

40:50it's a subjective

40:51opinion

40:51from the VR official

40:53yeah

40:53and then so

40:54but

40:55I actually like the fact

40:57that it kind of gets

40:57quite a lot

40:58it gets the offsides

41:00goal line technology

41:01would help as well

41:02because we don't really

41:03have that up here Peter

41:04I'd like it to limit

41:05I'd like it to be

41:06limited in its use

41:08rather than

41:09a situation

41:10where I feel as if

41:10sometimes the referee

41:11is relying on

41:12somebody else

41:13to referee the game

41:13is that a fair comment?

41:15I think if there's no VAR

41:16it's a lot

41:17it's the referee's

41:18common sense

41:19but I think when it's VAR

41:20I think it's rule book stuff

41:22it's going to let the law

41:23right

41:23I don't really want to

41:24chop this goal off

41:25but

41:26it's going to let the law

41:27it's in that book there

41:28that I've got to chop it off

41:29yeah but

41:30managers are saying

41:30you're re-refereeing the game

41:32every minute of it

41:33it's constant

41:34it's like

41:34a referee wants to make it

41:35just leave it

41:37because he'll get it

41:37he'll pick it up

41:38do you know the bit

41:39that gets me Peter

41:39I don't think

41:40I think referees

41:42are waiting for it

41:42to get picked up

41:43actually than making

41:44the big calls

41:44yeah

41:45do you know

41:45because

41:46how many times you go

41:47oh there's a penalty

41:48I'm blown for a penalty

41:49and then

41:49and we're still not hearing

41:50what the VAR official

41:51is saying to the referee

41:52and by the way

41:54at that point

41:55he's saying

41:55I'm going to show you this

41:5732 times

41:58at different angles

41:59constantly

41:59I'm going to be in your ear

42:00telling you something

42:01and when he's saying

42:02it's very difficult to change it

42:03absolutely

42:04how many referees

42:05have got the back

42:06I've actually

42:07I've actually seen

42:08maybe a couple of referees

42:09in big games

42:10roughly I've turned around

42:11and said

42:11no no

42:11I'm standing by my decision

42:13not many of them

42:14it would be a lot easier

42:14for us to make that decision

42:16if we knew what the dialogue was

42:17that's what I'd like to hear

42:19they obviously know

42:20what they're saying to each other

42:21but it would be interesting

42:22for us to make our mind up

42:23there was a boy

42:25in English Premiership

42:26that was making his first appearance

42:27as a referee

42:29asked to go to the morning

42:30and stood by his guns

42:31yeah

42:31and fair play to him

42:32just out of curiosity

42:33Ruffey

42:34is the goalkeeper at fault

42:36Falkirk's goalkeeper

42:37Bain

42:38well obviously

42:39you have to be there

42:40the dialogue there

42:41you know

42:41if he shouted

42:42you know

42:43I'm coming for this

42:43then I would expect

42:44my second half

42:45to go out the road

42:46you know

42:46you don't expect

42:47your second half

42:48to try and head it

42:49out of your hands

42:49because

42:51when Bain came out

42:52it was an easy catch

42:53for him

42:53because he came out like that

42:54he never tried to catch it high

42:55so he knew

42:56he had shouted

42:57for the boy

42:58to go out the road

42:58so

42:59no I wouldn't blame him

43:00for that

43:00blame the centre half

43:01yeah

43:02yeah absolutely

43:02well I knew you that

43:03but the unusual thing

43:05to get you

43:05and again

43:06this is

43:06it opens up

43:07a can of worms

43:08it's very rare

43:09that I would ask you

43:10a question like that

43:10because you've got

43:11absolutely no knowledge

43:13of

43:13ever saying to a centre half

43:15I'm coming for this

43:16it's mine

43:17Ruffies

43:17would you shout Ruffies

43:18no

43:18no no no

43:19he never came for a corner

43:20never came for anything

43:22that wasn't a corner

43:23that was just up in the air

43:24nah but you would know

43:25you've never gone for anything

43:26that potentially could have

43:27got you hurt

43:28so Gordon McQueen

43:29would have headed

43:30yeah absolutely

43:31Gordon McQueen

43:32Gordon McQueen

43:33it was Gordon

43:33that said to me

43:34Dixie Dean scores

43:35six goals against you

43:36and Dixie Dean's

43:37what 5-9

43:39and scored from a corner

43:44so I don't know

43:45why I even

43:46no no

43:47no no

43:47I don't know

43:48if you've noticed

43:49now but

43:51modern day

43:52goalkeepers

43:53do not

43:54come and catch the ball

43:55they flap

43:56they flap

43:57yeah

43:57like the Hibs boy

43:58and him in particular

44:00I'm not having a go

44:01at foreign goalkeepers

44:02again but the majority

44:03of them

44:03just want to flap

44:05just want to punch

44:05they don't want to

44:07come out into a crowd

44:08I can't remember

44:09the last time

44:10a ball comes over

44:11and I've seen a goalkeeper

44:12coming out and going

44:13bump

44:13in amongst

44:14in amongst

44:15bodies

44:17doesnae happen

44:17so I was away

44:18ahead of my time

44:19yeah

44:22you mentioned it

44:23at the top though

44:24John McGlynn

44:25wasn't critical

44:26of his side

44:28but Dundee

44:29did need the win

44:31yeah they did

44:31because

44:32the commandant

44:33starting to pick up

44:34points Dundee

44:34on a run

44:35you know

44:35and

44:36there was a few teams

44:37just starting to

44:38drag them into it

44:38I think they were

44:39only four or five

44:40points off the

44:40second bottom

44:41so it was a big

44:41result for them

44:42just pushes them

44:43gives them a wee

44:44bit more breathing

44:44space

44:45and gets them

44:46up into seventh

44:46I don't think

44:47they'll get in the

44:47top six

44:47I think Dundee

44:48will probably

44:49just finish

44:50seventh or eighth

44:51out with that

44:52see how earlier

44:52on we were talking

44:53about Comarnock

44:54look good

44:54and they're on a wee

44:56look positive

44:57who's going to get

44:58drawn in then

45:00is he going to

45:00jump ahead

45:01well it's Dundee

45:02and St Mirren

45:02there's only three

45:03and four points

45:03Dundee and St Mirren

45:04yeah

45:04you know

45:04so they're

45:07they're there

45:07Livingston are gone

45:09yeah

45:09I just don't

45:10if Comarnock won one

45:12it's between three

45:13now

45:13yeah

45:14absolutely

45:14four points

45:15separate Dundee

45:16after three

45:17and with that in mind

45:19Ruffey

45:19despite the fact

45:20that great credit

45:21to Livingston

45:24for battling back

45:26Dundee to Livingston

45:28to

45:28it's one of those

45:29ones where I think

45:30Stephen Presley

45:31you go 2-0 up

45:32you think to yourself

45:33great this is another

45:34this is a banker

45:34this is a home banker

45:35here

45:35I think we have

45:36four minutes

45:37and seven minutes

45:38you know

45:38in the first

45:40ten minutes of a game

45:41you go 2-0 up

45:42you're obviously saying

45:42well this is going to be

45:43one of the days

45:44we're going to stroll

45:44through this

45:45but no credit

45:46to Livingston

45:47okay the goalkeeper

45:48helped him with that one

45:49you know

45:50to get them back

45:51into the game

45:51but I thought

45:52Stephen Presley

45:53handled himself

45:54quite well

45:54after the game

45:55the goalkeeper

45:56said the howler

45:56Ruffey

45:57what's it all about

45:57passing the ball

45:58out from the back

45:59but that's what

46:00you're teaching

46:01the goalkeepers

46:01to do

46:02you're teaching

46:02them to take

46:03a wee touch

46:04and look up

46:04and find somebody

46:05and if there's movement

46:06they're going to get caught

46:07because they're not

46:08outfield players

46:09unless they're very

46:10very good at it

46:11I mean we saw

46:12Jack Buckland

46:12getting caught

46:13you're going to get caught

46:14if somebody puts you

46:15under pressure

46:16if you have it

46:17in your mindset

46:17my manager

46:18wants me to get the ball

46:19look up

46:19and find somebody

46:2025 yards away

46:21did you see the defenders

46:23you know that look

46:24as if to say

46:26yeah that's exactly

46:27what it is

46:27by the way

46:28I've had it off you

46:29that many times

46:31but it's

46:32it's one of those

46:33you know track runners

46:34no

46:34oh

46:35we've turned in

46:36his own box

46:37pocket picked

46:38bang

46:41he's picked many

46:42a pocket better

46:43than me by the way

46:43but on that point

46:45they just looked away

46:46and it's as if to say

46:47oh god you've sold

46:48the jerseys

46:48but we can't

46:49shout at you

46:49because if you don't

46:50know what you've

46:51done wrong

46:51the one thing

46:52I was thinking about

46:54and here's

46:55you'll be able to

46:56maybe give me

46:57your thoughts

46:57on this

46:58Tenetke come on

46:59made a difference

47:00for Celtic

47:01the boy

47:02it was almost

47:03a one man show

47:04from the boy

47:04Congreve

47:05I mean his left

47:06peg

47:06he was beating

47:08players for fun

47:09sometimes I think

47:10his final ball

47:11is suspect

47:12but boy

47:13he's got great skill

47:14yeah

47:15listen

47:15he's very assured

47:17and I think

47:18Dundee have recruited

47:19well and I think

47:19he comes under

47:20that bracket

47:21and I think

47:22he's got a goal

47:22in him as well

47:24and

47:25it's just

47:25I think

47:26they'd be a source

47:27of frustration

47:27Dundee looked as if

47:28they clawed away

47:29for this at one point

47:30didn't they

47:30yeah I thought so

47:31slowly slowly

47:31dragged back in

47:32so

47:33yeah but

47:35he's a decent enough

47:35player

47:36and I think

47:36when you've got

47:37the type of players

47:37I think they're

47:38match winners

47:38that can make

47:39the difference

47:39I was looking at

47:41the Livy centre forward

47:42the big robust boy

47:43Murehead

47:44so

47:45I think he's on

47:46seven goals now

47:47which he's

47:48I don't know about

47:48you know you're talking

47:48about a return

47:49at one point

47:50it looked as if

47:50he may well be

47:51going out on loan

47:52and then obviously

47:53he's the main man

47:54up front now

47:55for them

47:55he can hit a free kick

47:58he's very very good

47:59good

48:01technique

48:01in the team

48:03you know

48:03and he generally

48:04nine times out of

48:0520 hits the target

48:06yeah I was thinking

48:06of the players

48:07who are good to watch

48:09obviously that Eli

48:10just

48:10Congreve

48:11certainly catches my eye

48:13free of

48:15injury

48:15Nicky

48:16Cadden

48:18left peg

48:18he was brilliant

48:19Saturday Peter

48:19I watched the game

48:20he was

48:21probably one of the

48:22best games I've

48:23seen him for a while

48:23I think they've

48:24missed him

48:24he's been out injured

48:25I don't think

48:26there's a better

48:26crosser to the ball

48:27in Scotland

48:27I think he's the

48:28best crosser to the

48:29ball

48:29and he doesn't

48:30need to beat a man

48:31he just shifts it

48:32bang

48:32into the box

48:33great areas

48:34set up the second

48:35goal

48:37I thought Hibs were

48:38comfortable

48:38I really really worry

48:39if I'm a St Murm fan

48:40looking at that team

48:40at the minute

48:41I mean they're

48:41devoid of

48:42any sort of

48:43creativity in the

48:43final third

48:44I think they could

48:45have played all day

48:45in those squad

48:46Hibs were comfortable

48:47made a good save

48:48the keeper

48:48yeah he made a good

48:49save

48:51but Hibs

48:52strolled that game

48:52Peter

48:54I think if you're a

48:55St Murm supporter

48:57you're worrying

48:57where your next

48:58win's when he come

48:58from

48:58what about Hibs

49:00Owen Elding

49:00great little

49:01great finish

49:03great wee run

49:04great run

49:04and

49:06might be a wee bit

49:07of a change in the

49:07guard at Hibs

49:08you know

49:08you'd him and

49:10the boy from

49:11Tottenham Scarlett

49:12and Lone

49:13you'd Boyle on the

49:14bench

49:14Johan on the bench

49:14I don't think they'll

49:15be there next season

49:16at Hibs

49:16I think they'll

49:16both move on

49:17so I think the

49:18Hibs are now looking

49:18to go right

49:19ok we've got a

49:19couple of younger

49:20players in

49:20given that's his

49:21first start

49:22the boy Elding

49:22he scores

49:22he'll keep his

49:24plays for the

49:24next game

49:24Antti Sutton

49:25come on

49:26just looks like

49:27a big bat on

49:27him

49:27he's a cult

49:28hero already

49:28scored two

49:29goals in his

49:29two appearances

49:30at Easter Road

49:30so yeah I can

49:32just think you're

49:33starting to see

49:33maybe guys like

49:35Boyle and Johan

49:35maybe on their

49:36way out

49:36he's there the

49:37big guy

49:37ain't he

49:38big Croatian

49:39he's a big

49:41he's a

49:41Gogich

49:42there

49:44moments away from

49:45a yellow card

49:45and it's

49:46only in the

49:47tunnel

49:49you're doing

49:49particularly well

49:50to beat Simon

49:51Murray

49:51that's frightening

49:52when he scores

49:53I mean I don't

49:54know where he is

49:55or where he goes

49:55you like to see

49:56that when you

49:56score a goal

49:57it's the best

49:57thing in the

49:57world

49:57yeah absolutely

49:58I love that

49:59other than a

49:59Marco Negri

50:00he's never done

50:00anything

50:02and by the way

50:03Michael Taylor's

50:04just said that

50:04he says Simon

50:05Murray at the

50:05double he loves

50:06a goal celebration

50:07he does but

50:08I think he's a

50:10Dundee fan

50:11as a boy anyway

50:12I think he was a

50:13dark blue fan

50:14so it's even

50:15more special

50:16especially when

50:17you're getting

50:17goals at the

50:18tail end of

50:20the table

50:20and I'm looking

50:21right now and I

50:22can't call it

50:22I just think

50:23St Mirren

50:24you're right

50:24he's Simon

50:25Murray because

50:25he was up at

50:26Ross County

50:26and doing well

50:27for a couple

50:27of years

50:27and that was

50:28a really good

50:28signing

50:29because I

50:29think last

50:29year they

50:30got a

50:30barrel load

50:30as well

50:3016 he

50:31saved Dunja

50:31last season

50:32what happened

50:32to him at

50:32Hibs

50:34he was just

50:34rank rotten

50:35no I don't

50:36know right at

50:36Hibs

50:36what

50:36did so

50:37I don't

50:38know

50:38Hibs had

50:39better quality

50:40probably

50:42I didn't

50:43remember him

50:44doing it

50:44I didn't

50:45think he

50:45set the

50:46heather and

50:46fire at

50:46all

50:47it's not

50:48the great

50:48Derby

50:48I remember

50:48that one

50:49other than

50:51that

50:52so Falkert

50:53slight slip

50:54up

50:54Dundee

50:55Livingston

50:56gone

50:56Hibs

50:57against

50:57St Mirren

50:58got a

50:58good 2-0

50:59win

50:59and you're

51:00suddenly

51:01looking there

51:01and you're

51:01saying to

51:02yourself

51:02the bottom

51:03end

51:03is where

51:04it's

51:05getting

51:05if it's

51:06tight at

51:06the top

51:07it's

51:07certainly

51:07tight at

51:08the bottom

51:08as well

51:09because

51:09Livingston

51:09with 12

51:10Kilmarnock

51:11on 20

51:12St Mirren

51:12on 23

51:13and Dundee

51:14on 24

51:14and then

51:15you've got

51:15that 4-point

51:16gap where

51:17Dundee

51:17United

51:17and Aberdeen

51:18will probably

51:18think

51:19they might

51:20be safer

51:20as I say

51:21that magical

51:22number

51:22Alec

51:23is usually

51:2337 to

51:2440

51:25yeah

51:25I still

51:26think

51:26Dundee

51:27United

51:27and Aberdeen

51:28I don't

51:28see them

51:29getting dragged

51:29in

51:29Peter

51:29I think

51:30they've

51:30got enough

51:31all you're

51:31looking for

51:32is a couple

51:32of wins

51:32was it

51:336 wins

51:34would we say

51:34that Dundee

51:35United

51:35has got

51:3628 points

51:39yeah

51:39so what I'm

51:40saying is

51:40they draw

51:40quite a lot

51:41but they're

51:42still picking

51:42up points

51:43along the

51:43way

51:43so I

51:43don't see

51:44any of

51:44the two

51:44getting dragged

51:45into it

51:45Peter

51:45I think

51:468 points

51:47is a really

51:47nice cushion

51:49you know

51:50I think

51:50there would

51:50be a massive

51:51fall off

51:52lapse

51:52if that

51:53was the

51:54case

51:54and of

51:55the four

51:56that are

51:56down there

51:57we've

51:57already

51:58dispatched

51:58Livingstone

51:59so Dundee

51:59St Myrna

52:00and Kelly

52:00are you

52:01changing

52:02your mind

52:02are you

52:02twisting

52:03it

52:03here

52:03I think

52:04we'd all

52:04agree

52:05St Myrna

52:05is the

52:05one

52:05on free

52:06fall

52:06they need

52:07a spark

52:07somewhere

52:09Dundee

52:10although

52:10it would be

52:11disappointing

52:11the weekend

52:12they lost

52:12their two

52:13goals

52:13but it's

52:13another

52:14point

52:14you keep

52:15picking up

52:15points

52:16it takes

52:16a wee bit

52:17of pressure

52:18off you

52:18but

52:19certainly

52:20let's just

52:20hope St Myrna

52:21continue in that

52:22vein

52:23right up

52:23until the

52:24Cup game

52:25yeah

52:26yeah

52:27and I

52:28look at

52:28them

52:30and the

52:31performances

52:32you sometimes

52:33see them

52:33a couple of

52:33weeks ago

52:34against Celtic

52:35the Cup

52:36final

52:36and I look

52:37at the

52:37personnel

52:38they have

52:38and I

52:38think to

52:39myself

52:39I don't

52:40see a

52:40team

52:40that's

52:41kind of

52:41getting

52:41but they're

52:42clearly

52:42getting dragged

52:43into that

52:43kind of

52:44tricky

52:45place

52:46I've

52:47been

52:47around

52:47the

52:48grounds

52:49seeing

52:49the

52:50teams

52:50in the

52:51flesh

52:51from the

52:52press box

52:53and I

52:53look

52:53and I'm

52:53saying to

52:54myself

52:54I'm now

52:55getting worried

52:56for St Myrna

52:56because I

52:57see the

52:58spark that

52:59Neil McCann's

53:00talking about

53:00with Kelly

53:01I can see

53:01what Dundee

53:03have there

53:04and I

53:05think Dundee

53:06and I hope

53:07Tyrese John

53:08Jules doesn't

53:08have a long

53:09term injury

53:09but I see

53:11quality

53:12in both

53:13their sides

53:13and I'm

53:14wondering what's

53:16happening with

53:16St Myrna that

53:17they can get

53:17away from there

53:18yeah and you're

53:19right I just

53:19think I don't

53:20think Dundee

53:20have been any

53:21problem I'm

53:21really impressed

53:22with Dundee

53:22this season

53:23I don't

53:23think there'll

53:23be any

53:24issue and

53:24I think

53:25I'm not

53:25getting a

53:26lift for

53:26Dodsey

53:26and Neil

53:27McCann

53:27so St Myrna

57:34of course

57:34in the Scottish

57:36Cup

57:36the game that

57:37was postponed

57:38and then on to

57:39the weekend again

57:40if the bookies are

57:41saying that it's

57:42now Celtic

57:43favourites

57:43Rangers tucked in

57:44behind them in

57:45hearts

57:45going to finish

57:46third

57:46are you changing

57:47your mind

57:48after watching

57:48the weekend

57:49I wouldn't agree

57:50with the odds

57:50basis on

57:52as I said

57:53earlier on the

57:53show

57:54we can't beat

57:54these teams

57:55over 90 minutes

57:56so

57:58if you analyse

57:59that you know

58:00there's something

58:01going wrong

58:02who's winning

58:02at the moment

58:03I think Rangers

58:04momentum was

58:05with Rangers

58:05yeah

58:05Alec

58:06I couldn't

58:08call it Peter

58:08no no

58:09I just think

58:10Rangers have

58:11some tough ties

58:12as well

58:12over the next

58:13couple of weeks

58:13so they have

58:14to negotiate

58:16an old firm

58:17fixture as well

58:18and

58:18Jenk it's a

58:19helicopter moment

58:20I genuinely

58:21think this is

58:21going down to

58:22the wireless

58:22I really do

58:23last day

58:24but I'd like

58:25to see it again

58:26that would be

58:26just incredible

58:27for everyone

58:27involved

58:28still get your

58:28medal

58:28I don't know

58:29what it is

58:30but it'll be

58:30tucked away

58:31somewhere in the

58:31west wing

58:32yeah

58:32absolutely

58:33fantastic

58:34some caravan

58:35that by

58:35anyway

58:38Tammy

58:38are you changing

58:39your mind

58:40I've been pretty

58:41consistent for a

58:42wee while

58:42I just think

58:42Celtic will

58:43nick it

58:43I just think

58:44their experience

58:44and their

58:44running will

58:46win them

58:46if it goes

58:47down to the

58:47Europe thing

58:48this couple of

58:49weeks is going

58:50to be huge

58:50for them

58:51I don't think

58:51they'll be in

58:51Europe too

58:52long

58:54funnily enough

58:54somebody asked

58:55him that yesterday

58:55and he said

58:57realistically we

58:58should be going

58:58for a holiday

58:59but I'm selfish

59:00you might get a wee

59:02sniff at it

59:03but he says

59:03they're a Bundesliga

59:04side

59:04which was basically

59:05Martin saying

59:06we're coming out

59:06of that tournament

59:07and going for

59:08the last day

59:09as Alex says

59:10for a 98th

59:11minute winner

59:14I'm surprised

59:15can you imagine

59:18anyway

59:18give us

59:20only two subs

59:21that day

59:21probably about

59:21eight minutes

59:24and I'm leaving

59:27Alec Ray
