00:06:00for every moment for their summer holidays after a miserable campaign which has been torturous for their well travelled fans.
00:06:06Steven Presley has changed nearly half of his team after defeat at rugby park.
00:06:10Captain Ethan Hamilton returns as does Camp Congreve.
00:06:13Charlie Riley, Joe Westley and Dre Wright start as well.
00:06:16With the leather meat off away for surgery, Steven Robinson gives former co-rangers man Nick Soumon hisaba
00:06:21or comme une besteht.
00:06:23Kesskinen, Kjartansson and Cameron are also handed starts.
00:06:30The defeat today would be Aberdeen's 20th of the Premiership season,
00:06:34and the most they've had in a single league campaign since 2010-11.
00:06:40It would also mean back-to-back wins against the Dons in the league
00:06:43for the first time since 1999 for Dundee,
00:06:46as Congreve sends it to the back post, headed across by Riley,
00:06:50and Dre Wright bundles himself and the ball into the net.
00:06:59Dundee break the deadlock after ten minutes at Dens.
00:07:05And the man who unlocks the Aberdeen defence,
00:07:08as has so often been the case for Dundee this season, is Cam Congreve.
00:07:12A delicious ball to the back post.
00:07:15And once it's put back across,
00:07:17it's desperate for a committed man in dark blue to tap home,
00:07:21and Wright does just that.
00:07:26Brilliant feat from Congreve.
00:07:31Steven Robertson has done the job he was brought in to do at Aberdeen,
00:07:35and it's been a sobering experience for him.
00:07:40Robertson, Geiger, scrambles it away.
00:07:45Hamilton.
00:07:50Congreve, Robertson, gets it out of his feet.
00:07:53Suman smothers.
00:07:56Dundee looking for goal number two.
00:08:02Oh, Asana looking at the referee for the free kick.
00:08:05Nick Suman in his first Stabberdeen appearance.
00:08:10Down sharply as Robertson drove for goal.
00:08:18Dundee continue to search for that second.
00:08:23Steven Presley.
00:08:26Turn around in the moor around Dens from the start of the season.
00:08:29Lyle Cameron being roundly booed by his former fans as he puts it into a dangerous area.
00:08:34Wesley, read it though, puts it behind for the corner.
00:08:47Lyle Cameron.
00:08:49Ready to go again as the boos rain in.
00:08:53Back post, Morrison totally unmarked.
00:08:57And he says thank you very much.
00:09:01And gets Aberdeen back on level terms.
00:09:10It's his first Aberdeen goal.
00:09:14And he couldn't have asked for a better opportunity.
00:09:17It's as if he's got on an invisibility cloak.
00:09:20Absolutely no one picking him up.
00:09:23Easiest of headers towards the bottom corner.
00:09:32Flip towards Wesley. Milne's challenge.
00:09:35Not great from Morrison.
00:09:37Now it's Robertson to Congreve.
00:09:39Should have been 2-1.
00:09:44Congreve ought to have restored Dundee's lead here.
00:09:49Steps onto it nicely.
00:09:51Left foot always rising.
00:10:03Forward from Milne.
00:10:06Olasana pestering Cometeo.
00:10:08Only gets it as far as...
00:10:10There's a bit now.
00:10:10Cameron for Keskenen.
00:10:14Toppy Keskenen just about keeps the Aberdeen move alive.
00:10:22Molloy for Geiger.
00:10:25Good strength from the German.
00:10:27Molloy's ball.
00:10:29Only as far as Cameron deflected.
00:10:32And Olasana!
00:10:36Aberdeen have turned this game on its head.
00:10:40Sixth minute of first half stoppage time and they're in front.
00:10:45And the long-suffering Red Army
00:10:46who have travelled in numbers once more have something to shout about.
00:10:52Not often have we said that this season.
00:10:55And Tiosi Olasana has two in three games for Aberdeen.
00:11:02Already becoming a loved figure by his teammates and some of the fans at Pataudry.
00:11:08And he's really sharp to react here.
00:11:11Cameron's shot deflected into his path.
00:11:14Defenders are standing watching.
00:11:15He isn't.
00:11:16Diverts it beyond O'Hara.
00:11:18And it's Dundee 1 Aberdeen 2 as we head for the break.
00:11:22And Dundee thought they should have been in front through Congreve.
00:11:25They're now behinds heading for the dressing rooms.
00:11:37Asli.
00:11:41Dre Wrights.
00:11:42Asking for a bit of movement.
00:11:44Thanks Congreve.
00:11:46Sumptuous flick.
00:11:47Riley brushes off Morrison.
00:11:49Suman save.
00:11:50It's Wesley!
00:11:51It's two-all!
00:11:54Joe Wesley keeps his cool.
00:11:56To clip in the equaliser.
00:12:00And you have to say Dundee deserve it.
00:12:04For the response in the second half so far.
00:12:07Congreve at the heart of things again.
00:12:10Charlie Riley.
00:12:11Far too powerful for Morrison who didn't react to the danger.
00:12:15As Wesley waltz in.
00:12:16And just knocks it over Suman into the empty net.
00:12:20And Dundee.
00:12:24Back on level terms.
00:12:26No fancy going on now to win this and claim 8th place.
00:12:33Steven Presley mocked at the start of the season.
00:12:36Few are laughing at him now.
00:12:39corner.
00:12:41Finds Astley.
00:12:43Murray.
00:12:43Keeps it in.
00:12:44Back to Astley.
00:12:45Gets the shot away.
00:12:47Too close to the goalkeeper.
00:12:50Dundee keep putting the ball in Aberdeen's box.
00:12:54And asking them to defend.
00:12:56They haven't been great at that all season.
00:12:59Dundee just keep coming.
00:13:04Not given away by Malloy.
00:13:06And Dre Wright is onto this in a flash.
00:13:08Dundee have numbers here.
00:13:10Bevan.
00:13:11Onto his left foot.
00:13:12Blocked.
00:13:13Corner.
00:13:14As we enter the 90th minute at Denz.
00:13:17In the final match of the season.
00:13:18Dundee with tails up.
00:13:26In it comes.
00:13:28Astley again.
00:13:29And this time he scores.
00:13:33And it looks like Dundee are going to win this.
00:13:40Ryan Astley in the week he signed a new deal at Denz.
00:13:44Celebrates.
00:13:47And Steven Presley on his side surely complete a comeback.
00:13:51And that has been the story of their season.
00:13:54And the story of Aberdeen's.
00:13:56He's been conceding from set plays.
00:13:59And they have done so once again here.
00:14:05The last five minutes of the game where you needed to hang on.
00:14:08And show character.
00:14:09And show nerve.
00:14:10And strength.
00:14:11We didn't do.
00:14:12And hence why we dropped a place on the table.
00:14:14I spoke to everybody this week.
00:14:16Told the boys that will be part of it.
00:14:17And boys that we don't want part of it.
00:14:19But no doubt some will come back.
00:14:21Because they haven't got options.
00:14:23But they'll be coming back on our terms.
00:14:25Our work ethic.
00:14:26Our fitness levels.
00:14:28And our desire to win football matches.
00:14:30Otherwise they won't play.
00:14:31But yeah.
00:14:32Ultimately I'd like to change lots of things.
00:14:33But football's not ideal.
00:14:35And life's not ideal.
00:14:36I'm really, really proud of the group.
00:14:38To finish eighth in what has been a hugely challenging season.
00:14:41Is a decent achievement.
00:14:43We want to keep improving.
00:14:44But I think it's getting a platform.
00:14:48To continue to grow.
00:14:51But firstly I'm going to enjoy the summer.
00:14:57And you deserve to Stephen.
00:14:58A great comeback this season from Celtic.
00:15:00To win the title.
00:15:01Great comeback to Scottish football.
00:15:03In the end for Stephen Presley James.
00:15:05And a real progress from Dundee you have to say.
00:15:07There was a bit of controversy when they got rid of Tony Doherty at the end of last season.
00:15:11After they finished tenth.
00:15:12This season though.
00:15:13Presley at the helm.
00:15:14Wasn't exactly endorsed by the fans early doors.
00:15:16And they finished eighth.
00:15:17Yeah.
00:15:18He didn't exactly endorse himself either.
00:15:20Stephen Presley at the start.
00:15:21But he's done a tremendous job.
00:15:22They've had some strong performances.
00:15:24Some big results this season.
00:15:26And he's such a likeable character as well.
00:15:29So I'm delighted for him personally.
00:15:31And it's a vindication of the decision.
00:15:33It was quite controversial for me.
00:15:35But Stephen Presley's come in.
00:15:37Done a magnificent job.
00:15:38It allows him to go in.
00:15:39I don't know how much managers enjoy their summer.
00:15:41To be honest.
00:15:42But enjoy summer.
00:15:42And plan for next season.
00:15:44Certainly with more positivity getting into it.
00:15:46Yeah.
00:15:47As for.
00:15:49Aberdeen.
00:15:49What a sorry season it has been.
00:15:51Yeah.
00:15:51And Stephen Robinson at the end there.
00:15:53I suppose the one crumb of comfort from him.
00:15:55Is that.
00:15:57What ended there.
00:15:59In this.
00:15:59Bad end of the season for Aberdeen really.
00:16:01Is that.
00:16:02Is that.
00:16:02I suppose it vindicates him for.
00:16:04Having a big.
00:16:04Big change in the summer.
00:16:06In terms of personality.
00:16:06Clearly wants a huge revamp at that club.
00:16:09Yeah.
00:16:09I think it was just.
00:16:10You know.
00:16:10Get to the end of the season.
00:16:11For Aberdeen.
00:16:12And.
00:16:12Once they.
00:16:13They knew that.
00:16:13They were never going to be dragged into that playoff.
00:16:15And for relegation.
00:16:17It is going to be a big summer.
00:16:18For Aberdeen.
00:16:19Because he's speaking about.
00:16:21You know.
00:16:21The problems have had.
00:16:23The fragility defensively.
00:16:26Um.
00:16:27And.
00:16:27Not being able to see.
00:16:29Games out.
00:16:30I mean.
00:16:31Stephen Robinson's teams are.
00:16:33Are always well organized.
00:16:34They're hard to play against.
00:16:36They're.
00:16:36They've got energy.
00:16:37They're fit.
00:16:38You know.
00:16:38They're physical.
00:16:39And in these instances.
00:16:41It's far too easy.
00:16:43He's.
00:16:43You know.
00:16:44He's not had a lot of time.
00:16:45He clearly wants to make change.
00:16:47And to the squad over the summer.
00:16:48I expect we'll see that.
00:16:49There will be players leaving.
00:16:51And players coming in.
00:16:52Um.
00:16:52So it's a.
00:16:53It is a really big summer.
00:16:54For Aberdeen.
00:16:55Because it's okay saying.
00:16:56You're going to make change.
00:16:56And you want to make change.
00:16:58You need to make the right changes.
00:16:59You need to have a positive impact.
00:17:01And it will be a huge summer.
00:17:02For Aberdeen.
00:17:02I think the one thing.
00:17:03That should be remembered.
00:17:04In all this sort of.
00:17:05Doom and gloom.
00:17:06From an Aberdeen point of view.
00:17:07As well James.
00:17:08Is the fact that.
00:17:09Despite all of it.
00:17:10The enthusiasm from the Aberdeen fans.
00:17:12This season.
00:17:13Has been.
00:17:13Quite incredible.
00:17:14But Audrey's been.
00:17:15Packed most of the time.
00:17:17I think 3,000 fans.
00:17:18Are thereabouts.
00:17:18Were at Dens Park today.
00:17:20Yeah well.
00:17:21I mean.
00:17:21They're still celebrating.
00:17:22You know.
00:17:22Winning the Scottish Cup last season.
00:17:24I know that's not everything.
00:17:25But it's been a long time.
00:17:26For Aberdeen.
00:17:27So.
00:17:28They've.
00:17:29They've managed to get the crowds.
00:17:31Back in.
00:17:32Get them behind the team.
00:17:33And I think they need that.
00:17:34They need that.
00:17:34They need to change.
00:17:35They've got it.
00:17:36Now they've got a chance to go and.
00:17:38Rebuild.
00:17:39Is strong.
00:17:40But they have to go and.
00:17:41Make changes in the summer.
00:17:42That are going to be positive for the club.
00:17:44But the fans are there.
00:17:45They want to see success.
00:17:47Yeah.
00:17:47You asked at the top of the show about.
00:17:49Is it going to be stronger next season.
00:17:50You look at what Hearts have been able to do.
00:17:52Yeah.
00:17:52The Aberdeen fans will be thinking.
00:17:53They should be able to do that.
00:17:55And they should be able to.
00:17:56So.
00:17:56Yeah.
00:17:56I think there's positivity around a lot of clubs.
00:17:58Most of them it was get to the end of the season.
00:18:01And hopefully have a good summer.
00:18:02Yeah.
00:18:03Big rebuild.
00:18:03Needed at Aberdeen.
00:18:05Next up.
00:18:06We'd also get plenty of goals.
00:18:07As relegated Livingston.
00:18:09Hosted Kilmarnock.
00:18:10Who had secured their Premiership status.
00:18:12Midweek.
00:18:15Kilmarnock know what a win in their safe.
00:18:20Shirley Larson pulls it back.
00:18:21Great strike.
00:18:26Charlie Riley helps himself to his second goal of the season.
00:18:32Riffrey says penalty.
00:18:34Keeper went the right way but had no chance.
00:18:42That will confirm it.
00:18:45Kilmarnock are safe.
00:18:46Kilmarnock can celebrate.
00:18:48Kilmarnock will be playing in the Scottish Premiership next term.
00:18:51Kilmarnock.
00:18:55In 90 minutes time Livingston will say farewell for now to the Scottish Premiership.
00:18:59While Kelly players will be on their summer holiday price comparison sites.
00:19:03With no relegation playoff years after securing safety in midweek.
00:19:09Livy make two changes from the spirited midweek draw with Dundee United.
00:19:13Danny Wilson comes back in with the captain's armband.
00:19:16Barry McKay is also in.
00:19:17Pittman and Finlayson dropped out of the matchday squad.
00:19:20Interim manager Scott Arfield is amongst the subs.
00:19:23Kelly made just the one change from the midweek victory.
00:19:26Nicky Klushenko comes in for Bruce Anderson.
00:19:37It's been a superb run of form for Kilmarnock but defending here.
00:19:43Just a little bit over the top as Mee looking to pick back up.
00:19:49Good ball in for Muirhead.
00:19:50And it's just going to be clear to me.
00:19:53And Stanger the defender just ahead of his line.
00:19:57Decent ball and then can't get the full connection.
00:20:04And it sets him ball.
00:20:06Seanan Larsson now.
00:20:08He manages to cut in.
00:20:10Really good play.
00:20:11Doesn't quite to keep it down though.
00:20:16Sweeping move.
00:20:19One ball one end to the other.
00:20:22Lovie retreating.
00:20:24That one just not quite coming down the shot.
00:20:27Well, amongst the subs, Scott Arfield enjoying his spell on the touchline.
00:20:31David Martindale, former manager, watching on.
00:20:36That one being lost there.
00:20:39And here's Stevie May.
00:20:41Scores for Lovie.
00:20:45Slat Killie defending.
00:20:47And Stevie May with his third of the season.
00:20:52The commander defender's not happy at all.
00:20:55And it all came from Muirhead.
00:20:58Steele from Lowry.
00:21:01Mackay then finding the veteran.
00:21:06The finish with the plomb, didn't he?
00:21:08And Neil McCann will not be happy with the slack way the ball was given away.
00:21:13But Livingston have the lead here.
00:21:16And an expert finish through the legs.
00:21:24Lowry.
00:21:25Tom Thompson making a good run.
00:21:28He's got a couple in there.
00:21:29Hugo, one of those.
00:21:31And it's 1-1.
00:21:35Well, that didn't take long for a reply.
00:21:38I'm not sure it's his best touch he's ever had,
00:21:41but it was an important one just to prod it past.
00:21:44Prior.
00:21:46Taking a bit of pain in the process,
00:21:48but the goal was made by the move.
00:21:52Thompson with the run.
00:21:54And the slight missed touch probably helped it away from Prior.
00:21:59But one long pass sweeping into the box.
00:22:02And the touch home.
00:22:05It's a great reply from Kilmarnock.
00:22:12Kilmarnock.
00:22:13In there.
00:22:14Towards Muirhead again.
00:22:16Support behind.
00:22:19It's all a bit loose.
00:22:20And Kilmarnock with Deeskin.
00:22:22First it away.
00:22:24Kilty.
00:22:26And here's Klashenko.
00:22:28Motoring it away.
00:22:29Inside.
00:22:31Still going.
00:22:31Klashenko!
00:22:34And Kilmarnock have turned it around.
00:22:37With his first for the club.
00:22:39Cool and calm.
00:22:44And again.
00:22:47A soothing Kilmarnock move away.
00:22:49Livingston defenders struggling back.
00:22:52Just turned.
00:22:54Kabongolo.
00:23:00And calmly home with real.
00:23:03From.
00:23:05Superb for two.
00:23:12Kilmarnock.
00:23:13Kilmarnock looking to start the second half lively.
00:23:14Good ball across.
00:23:15Hugel in there in the mix.
00:23:16There's a great challenge.
00:23:18From Cammie Kerr.
00:23:21Curtis was the furthest forward.
00:23:25From Hugel's pass.
00:23:27There is a bit of pain in the process.
00:23:31Great vision.
00:23:32To see the gab.
00:23:34But what a perhaps goal-saving challenge.
00:23:41Kilty.
00:23:43Here's Klashenko.
00:23:45Not the equaliser.
00:23:46Look at that for a pair of eight.
00:23:49Thompson.
00:23:50Oh, and finally Curtis coming in.
00:23:52It's helped another defender.
00:23:54But he'll take it.
00:23:57Four and four now.
00:23:59Eight for the season.
00:24:00These two spells between Rangers and Kilmarnock.
00:24:05Oh, Klashenko, what a turn.
00:24:08And wonderful move again from Kilmarnock.
00:24:10Playing with such freedom because they're safe.
00:24:14Friendly Curtis, what a loan he's had.
00:24:16Friendly Curtis, what a loan he's had.
00:24:18And the spot to finish it off, Curtis.
00:24:22World Cup anyone?
00:24:32Dees.
00:24:34Oh, and that's sub through.
00:24:35Too cheaply for Libby.
00:24:37And that's Kilmarnock.
00:24:38Calming collected.
00:24:39From Joe Hugel.
00:24:41As we hit towards the one mark.
00:24:43The dance moves are out.
00:24:46Showboating in towards the summer.
00:24:48As Livingston sees in his ending.
00:24:51As they depart the friendship.
00:24:54Another bit of a defensive slip.
00:24:56It's onside, by the looks of things.
00:24:57VR are checking off the defensive foot of Kabongolo.
00:25:07Hugo just had to sort it home so nicely.
00:25:10And it is just onside.
00:25:24Played in here towards Stevie May.
00:25:27Plenty of one back.
00:25:30Stryak with the stop.
00:25:32It's great to see Stryak back playing after his heart surgery.
00:25:36Cutting inside really well, mate.
00:25:38Looking for a consolation.
00:25:43And here's Kilbert coming from May.
00:25:45Kilbert, and again a tipped hand away.
00:25:54Good interchange, almost a par and copy.
00:25:56This time though it's Kilbert with the strike.
00:26:04Neuble.
00:26:05And Zimmerman.
00:26:07It's another chance here for Livy.
00:26:09And Stryak again making himself big.
00:26:14Three opportunities towards the end.
00:26:16None taken, but Stryak making sure no more goals considered.
00:26:21Standing firm.
00:26:26Killey looking at four in a row now in the Premiership.
00:26:29First time it's been done to Steve Clarke.
00:26:31Back in October 2018.
00:26:32Neil McCann's.
00:26:33The men have done it here.
00:26:36Played through here from Lowry to Watson.
00:26:39Might not be any more goals though.
00:26:41But a fantastic performance.
00:26:43Watson gets wide.
00:26:44Kilmarek in the Premiership another year.
00:26:47I'm actually proud of everything we've worked on as a staff.
00:26:52The message that we've put into the boys that you show the respect to the opposition
00:26:56by continuing to play how we want to play.
00:26:59And they did that right to the very end.
00:27:01Could have been a lot more goals.
00:27:02I know Max makes a couple of saves, but I think the performance today was outstanding.
00:27:07Considering maybe a lot of people thought this was a dead rubber game.
00:27:09We get a good goal.
00:27:10We were brilliant for 20 minutes causing problems.
00:27:14Half chances that don't become major chances in the game is the difference.
00:27:19And very symbolic to where the club find ourselves.
00:27:21What does the picture look like for you?
00:27:23If it is here, then obviously I'll do my best to get the club back up.
00:27:27If it isn't, then I'm very grateful for the experience both as a player and in this intern role.
00:27:34So we wave goodbye to Livingston from the Premiership.
00:27:37They will be in the Championship next season.
00:27:39Who will be at the helm?
00:27:40Could it be Scott Arfield?
00:27:42He seems to have slightly warmed to the idea.
00:27:44James, I thought he was pretty reluctant to begin with.
00:27:45That was quite surprising actually.
00:27:47I thought he was just going to say he would play whether it was at Livingston or elsewhere.
00:27:50But he must have enjoyed it.
00:27:52I mean, they've not got the results, but they've certainly had decent performances.
00:27:57And they had a few chances as well, but just couldn't put them away.
00:28:01But he must have enjoyed himself in the dugout.
00:28:03They've lost 28 points from winning positions this season.
00:28:07That's the most obvious thing in the Premiership.
00:28:09Tells basically the whole story, doesn't it?
00:28:10Yeah, it does.
00:28:11And Livingston coming up, many people thought they'd be that tough team to play against.
00:28:16I mean, it doesn't sound great, but they have been in a lot of games.
00:28:20And it has ultimately cost them because it's maybe been late goals or goals that are turning
00:28:26winning positions into draws or draws into defeats.
00:28:29And it certainly has harmed them.
00:28:31But you know that Livingston, they're a club with character.
00:28:34They will regroup in the summer and I'm sure they'll be a force to be reckoned with in the Championship.
00:28:38Normally there is a chair next to you there, Fadi, but not tonight.
00:28:42But in the recent past, Neil McCann would have been sat on it.
00:28:45But goodness me, what a job he's done since he replaced that chair for a place in the Kilmarnock dugout.
00:28:51Four wins in a row and they ended the season in huge styles.
00:28:54Some great goals. They were really up for it, weren't they?
00:28:57Yeah, they were. I think that Neil's done a tremendous job with Billy Dodge alongside him.
00:29:03And there's been some poor results and performances in there.
00:29:07And Neil's come out and been, you know, sometimes, maybe from the outside people would think quite harsh.
00:29:13But he's been, you know, he's been strong with his opinions.
00:29:17And the one thing even in, you know, poor performances and defeats, he's always backed the group.
00:29:23He's always put demand on the group because he knows he's got good players in there.
00:29:27He's managed to get four wins in a row.
00:29:29You look at Hugo and Finlay Curtis.
00:29:32They've got nine goals in those four games between them.
00:29:36And they're a team that you can see are enjoying their football.
00:29:40And he made a point to say that everybody thought it would be a dead rubber.
00:29:44But knowing Neil and the demands and the standards that he sets,
00:29:47he would have set his team out to go and finish the season as best they can.
00:29:50They've managed to do that.
00:29:51He's done a great job.
00:29:52And he'll be looking forward to his summer.
00:29:55Certainly looked a bit, could have been a bit different a few weeks ago.
00:29:58But no, they've done a great job and some great football as well.
00:30:01And Finlay Curtis is getting the best out of him as well.
00:30:03I was going to say, well done to Nicky Klisenko today as well.
00:30:06He played really well.
00:30:06But Finlay Curtis.
00:30:08Do you expect him to be in that World Cup squad, which gets announced on Tuesday, James?
00:30:11Yeah, I do.
00:30:12He was in the squad for the friendlies.
00:30:14He managed to go on the pitch.
00:30:16I think that his form has shown that, you know, he's kicked on from that.
00:30:20He's been a huge player for Kilmarnock.
00:30:23He's got a big summer coming up.
00:30:24Hopefully he is in the squad.
00:30:25I think he will be.
00:30:26And then he's got a job to go and force his way into the Rangers side,
00:30:29which I think he's more than capable of doing.
00:30:31OK.
00:30:33St Mirren would warm up for their Premiership playoff final
00:30:35against Bartek Thistle by hosting top of the bottom six.
00:30:39Dundee United, St Mirren midweek winners over Aberdeen.
00:30:46He's got a big player for the team.
00:30:47He played in the side of the box for Devane.
00:30:48He puts it across.
00:30:49Goal!
00:30:51Richard King taps into the back post.
00:30:57Freckleton slides it in.
00:30:59And it is 2-0!
00:31:01Kylian Phillips against his former club and boy did he enjoy it.
00:31:09Well that victory at Patojie wasn't enough to avoid a living spot but
00:31:14St Mirren will look to build some positive momentum to take into two massive
00:31:19playoff matches over the next week.
00:31:21Well Dundee United aim to end a largely disappointing season on a winning note.
00:31:26Five changes for St Mirren including a first start for young Luke Douglas up front.
00:31:32Phillips and Manzone are among their number of players just being rested
00:31:36ahead of Thursday's massive playoff.
00:31:39Dundee United make four changes themselves and that includes a debut for young Keir Gilligan
00:31:45who will play at left wing back with Will Ferry on international duty.
00:32:01Well it is effectively a dead rubber but St Mirren will look to put in a good performance here.
00:32:10As Gogic tries to release Douglas who's barged to the ground rather by Cleo Harding.
00:32:20Some claims for a penalty, nothing given though.
00:32:26Here's Adobu, leaves Ross Graham in his wake and it's Douglas and a decent save but it's not entirely clear
00:32:36yet.
00:32:36There's Jadon Richardson and another save from Dave Richards to fingertip it around the post.
00:32:44Now St Mirren have started this game brightly, not least the 16 year old up front.
00:32:49Denied there by Richards as was Richardson.
00:32:58Freckleton allowed to advance and feeds it into the channel and Douglas will take the shot on again.
00:33:07It's squirmed into the back of the net but the offside flag is up.
00:33:11To spare, Dave Richards blushes.
00:33:14It does look like Douglas goes too early but goodness knows what the goalkeeper is doing there.
00:33:22But that confirms the assistance flag was correct.
00:33:30And United looking to pose a threat of their own.
00:33:35Not on this occasion.
00:33:39A look Douglas has started this game brilliantly and that's going to bring a yellow card for Sam Cleo Harding.
00:33:46He's blocked him off there.
00:33:56Craven Cleish will be pretty happy with the way his side have started this game.
00:34:01And that's Cleo Harding on Douglas again.
00:34:04And he's got to be careful, the young defender.
00:34:08Just trying to nip in in front of Douglas there.
00:34:14Here's Waters.
00:34:15In for Sapsford and he's managed to squeeze that beyond the keeper and into the back of the net.
00:34:21And from absolutely nothing, Dundee United hit the front.
00:34:26Well they've been second best in the game but that is clinical from Sapsford.
00:34:31To notch his 11th goal of the season.
00:34:34Brilliant finish.
00:34:38Samirran looking to respond.
00:34:39It's good hold up and link play from Douglas for Udowu.
00:34:44And now it's Jake Young up against Graham.
00:34:47Richards in the way.
00:34:51And Kamara can bring it clear.
00:34:54Samirran have looked like an attacking threat.
00:34:57They've only scored ten goals at home this season.
00:34:59That's been their problem.
00:35:04Here's Gogic.
00:35:06No challenge and he'll take the shot on.
00:35:09And a good stop from Richards.
00:35:15And Gogic allowed to come a long way.
00:35:23A couple of changes at half-time for the home side.
00:35:29That's Campbell feeding it forward.
00:35:33There's Marcus Fraser and Douglas sends it wide.
00:35:39Now that's his best chance of the day and he should probably have hit the target.
00:35:44I'm sure the young man has buried plenty of these over his short career so far.
00:35:50Interested onlookers, the Patrick Thistle management team, Mark Wilson and Alec Ray.
00:35:58Goic.
00:36:00Gogic.
00:36:03That's King.
00:36:05Into Young.
00:36:06It takes a reflection, there's the equaliser.
00:36:09Well, Richards had no chance as soon as it deflected off the heel of Ross Graham.
00:36:15And Jake Young, just as he did at Tanadice,
00:36:18finds the equaliser against United.
00:36:22It was on target, but Graham's deflection played a massive part in drawing St Mirren level.
00:36:33Good challenge from Campbell, taken on by Devani.
00:36:38St Mirren with her tails up.
00:36:40Here's Calvin.
00:36:45And that's another effort from Youngster Douglas.
00:36:50Well held by Richards on that occasion.
00:36:54He's injured himself in the process.
00:37:01Gogic put himself and St Mirren in trouble, it's Gilligan now.
00:37:07For Johnny Russell, and it's Eskisson.
00:37:10Well, he went for the precision finish rather than power.
00:37:14And didn't really have the accuracy in the shot to trouble Ross Sinclair.
00:37:24Here's Caden McMillan, another youngster given his opportunity by St Mirren this afternoon.
00:37:30It's not a bad ball.
00:37:33And it will come for Faulkner, who tries his luck and he's so unlucky.
00:37:40Still the danger not clear.
00:37:43And now it is.
00:37:46You know, Thomas Faulkner on the day that St Mirren have given youth its chance.
00:37:52So close to what could have been a winning goal.
00:37:58The in-swinger, Richards hasn't dealt with it.
00:38:02St Mirren trying to find a late winner.
00:38:06It comes for Gogic.
00:38:08That was net-bound.
00:38:10Acrobatic stuff from Gogic, but kept out.
00:38:13In the hole, we asked for a positive performance.
00:38:15We asked for, like, just building confidence and a bit of momentum going into our final two games.
00:38:20I thought we did that in the hole.
00:38:22We now need to do everything we can over the next two games to make sure that we do enough
00:38:27to stay in the league.
00:38:28But with the boys, like, I know the group well now.
00:38:31The confidence that they've got, the quality they've got, like, we have to, it's letting the occasion not get to
00:38:37us.
00:38:37We have to turn up. If we turn up and perform the way we can, then we're confident going into
00:38:42the two games.
00:38:43Obviously, we're disappointed, you know, not to have won and not to have hung on to that clean sheet.
00:38:48But, you know, it was a deflected goal in the end.
00:38:51I don't think it's a great deal Dave Richards could have done about it.
00:38:53But at the same time, it's probably no less than St Mirren deserved.
00:38:57You know, they put a lot into the game.
00:39:00Let's talk about St Mirren first and foremost.
00:39:03They finish second bottom of the Premiership.
00:39:05James, they face Partick Thistle, obviously, first leg on Thursday, second leg on Monday.
00:39:10Do you make them slight favourites for that?
00:39:14Or not?
00:39:15Yeah, you have to because it's notoriously difficult for the team from the Championship to win this play-off.
00:39:23And you would have to, but I think, you know, we're going to see it in a minute.
00:39:27Partick Thistle has shown that, you know, they can be more than a match for St Mirren.
00:39:32They've finished the season in a good place.
00:39:35They've navigated a tough play-off against Unferman, who, as we all know, are in the Cup final,
00:39:40beating three Premiership sides to get there.
00:39:43So, yeah, Partick Thistle are a good side.
00:39:45This won't be, you know, an easy game.
00:39:47It's no walk-over, absolutely not.
00:39:49And I know that, you know, Partick Thistle dressing room will feel that they are, you know, confident they can
00:39:55get the job done.
00:39:56I'm not saying they're going to, you know, rock up and say, you know, they will win the game and
00:40:00it will be as easy as that.
00:40:01It's going to be a tough game, but, yeah, it's definitely going to be competitive.
00:40:06And Thistle are more than capable of causing problems.
00:40:09You heard Craig McLeish saying it's important they don't let the occasion get the better of them.
00:40:14And that's dealing with the pressure of being a Premiership side.
00:40:17But it's one thing for sure, it will be a cracker.
00:40:21This season's been littered with controversial incidents.
00:40:25It reminds me of that moment earlier in the season in the Scottish Cup when St Mirren got awarded this
00:40:31penalty.
00:40:31We're not going to see the actual incident itself, Fanny, which you were all over at the time.
00:40:35It was contentious, though, to say the least, wasn't it?
00:40:37Yeah, it was.
00:40:38And in the end, St Mirren would get a narrow victory here against Partick Thistle, which is, well, yeah,
00:40:44I suppose it does give an indication of what we might expect.
00:40:47Yeah, but it shows you that, you know, St Mirren, if they go and approach it in the right manner,
00:40:53obviously can go and win the game.
00:40:55I mean, that's basic.
00:40:57But Thistle showed character in the game.
00:40:59They showed that there can be a match for St Mirren.
00:41:03Obviously, St Mirren get the job done and Thistle lost the tie.
00:41:07But they showed in that game, they outplayed St Mirren for large parts of that game, Partick Thistle.
00:41:12And Craig McLeish should be well aware of that.
00:41:14There is a difference in style from St Mirren, which means it should be a good game.
00:41:20Looking at the pitch at Paisley looks excellent.
00:41:23We know Firhill is excellent.
00:41:24So hopefully we get two good games of football.
00:41:26Quick mention of Dundee United.
00:41:27They're sort of be calmed in that sort of seventh place.
00:41:31They were never in any real danger, obviously.
00:41:33So it's been a sort of strange post-split atmosphere around them.
00:41:37Obviously, they let Will Ferry go and join the Republic of Ireland to get his first cap as well.
00:41:41So I suppose next season for Jim Goodwin, all about just getting the recruitment right.
00:41:46Yeah, I mean, as every season, but Jim's shown that he's very good at that side of the game.
00:41:50They'll be disappointed they haven't made the top six once more.
00:41:53And Will Ferry getting recognition for his outstanding performances this season can only be good for the club.
00:41:58So yeah, Dundee United will be again like every other club.
00:42:02Get to the summer, get some fresh bodies into the squad and go and look to try and push into
00:42:06that top six once again.
00:42:07Indeed, OK. Right, the William Hill Premiership season 2025-2026 has ended and the table looks like this.
00:42:17Celtic are champions, of course, with 82 points.
00:42:21Hearts are second on 80 points.
00:42:24At the bottom, Kilmarnock finish level on points with Aberdeen.
00:42:28St Mirren have that fight with Partick Thistle for Premiership football next season.
00:42:33Livingston will be in the championship.
00:42:37Saturday really was a day of tension which ended in glory for Celtic and agony for Hearts.
00:42:43Commentary comes from Alistair Lalonde.
00:42:50Devlin for Kingsley, he's on the right foot.
00:42:53And they'll take the next corner.
00:42:55Connect to Cleo and came back off Kingsley.
00:42:59I don't think Hearts will be trying that routine again.
00:43:08Kingsley to try once more.
00:43:12Comes in, and it's a goal! Lawrence Shatland!
00:43:16Who else but Captain Fantastic to come up with the biggest moment!
00:43:24An defence from Gorgie in that little corner of Celtic Park.
00:43:32They are the ones rejoicing!
00:43:36They are the ones rejoicing!
00:43:42Tierney now, a yard of space, claim for handball.
00:43:46It's a corner that's given.
00:43:48No, it's a handball, it's a penalty!
00:43:51There's a penalty!
00:43:52And look, Kizerides penalised.
00:43:59It's a massive moment, there will be a few inside Celtic Park we can barely watch.
00:44:06it's Arna Engels
00:44:08against Alexander Svalov
00:44:09and he's scored
00:44:11Svalov went the right way
00:44:13but Arna Engels
00:44:14has levelled things up
00:44:18crucially
00:44:18just a couple of minutes after
00:44:21Harts had moved in front
00:44:24and it's all square
00:44:26at Celtic Park
00:44:27on this day of all days
00:44:42and for Iheanacho
00:44:45off the post
00:44:47so unlucky for Kelechi
00:44:49Iheanacho
00:44:51well he has been the man
00:44:52for the big occasion
00:44:53and he so nearly was once more
00:44:56denied by the upright
00:44:58he thought that was it
00:45:00I think a few around Celtic Park
00:45:02did
00:45:08Saracchi once more
00:45:15it's Osman
00:45:16flashing it in
00:45:17Dijon Maida
00:45:18oh the offside flags up
00:45:21they thought that was the moment
00:45:24let's take a look
00:45:28Osman's clearly on there
00:45:31so that's okay
00:45:34well that looks like
00:45:35that goal will stand
00:45:42it's a goal
00:45:44Dijon Maida falls to the floor
00:45:46because he knows
00:45:48and they know
00:45:50that he might just
00:45:52have got the goal
00:45:53to win the title for Celtic
00:46:01Maida can't get it beyond
00:46:03Cammy Devlin
00:46:05and Harts will take the free kick
00:46:07as McGregor
00:46:09goes into the book
00:46:11a minute remaining
00:46:13for Celtic to hold on
00:46:18Shola will go this time
00:46:21well in this
00:46:23most incredible of seasons
00:46:25you wouldn't put it past
00:46:27there to be one last
00:46:28dramatic twist
00:46:29as Spittle sends it in
00:46:31McGregor first to it
00:46:32he'll come to Devlin
00:46:33on the edge of the box
00:46:34charge down
00:46:35and Celtic are in
00:46:36and Celtic are surely
00:46:38going to score
00:46:38the goal that all but seals
00:46:40the title is Callum Osmond
00:46:44and Celtic are champions
00:46:46again
00:46:47Martin O'Neill is a champion
00:46:49for a fourth time
00:46:51what an end
00:46:53to an incredible season
00:46:55in the Scottish Premiership
00:46:57and Celtic once again
00:47:02for the 56th time
00:47:04in their history
00:47:04are champions of Scotland
00:47:11congratulations to Celtic
00:47:12they are champions
00:47:13what a season
00:47:14it has been
00:47:15and there will be
00:47:17a bit of time
00:47:17for celebration for them
00:47:18I'm sure James
00:47:19because the Scottish Cup final
00:47:21is a week away
00:47:22or thereabouts anyway
00:47:23and a bit of time
00:47:25for them to
00:47:26reflect on what
00:47:27they've achieved
00:47:27which is quite incredible
00:47:29given where they were
00:47:30not that long ago
00:47:31and they'll put a real
00:47:33spring in their step
00:47:34ahead of the Scottish Cup final
00:47:35against Dunfermline
00:47:36I'm sure they would have
00:47:37celebrated yesterday
00:47:39and as you say
00:47:40I know that people
00:47:41will look and say
00:47:42Celtic always win the league
00:47:44and why is this
00:47:45an incredible achievement
00:47:46well
00:47:46seven games
00:47:48in a row
00:47:49they've won in the league
00:47:49to put themselves
00:47:50in the position
00:47:52from a position
00:47:53of people
00:47:54probably expecting
00:47:55it not to happen
00:47:55so showed character
00:47:57to deal with that
00:47:58and to go and
00:47:59lift a trophy
00:48:00lift a league title
00:48:02but their focus
00:48:03will be on it
00:48:03to try and get
00:48:05the Scottish Cup back
00:48:05I think many people
00:48:06expected that to be
00:48:07a walkover last season
00:48:08against Aberdeen
00:48:10Aberdeen spoiled the party
00:48:11and full credit to them
00:48:13Celtic want to go
00:48:14and get their hands
00:48:14on that Scottish Cup
00:48:15once again
00:48:16they've got a hungry
00:48:18young Dunfermline side
00:48:19to overcome
00:48:20and it won't be
00:48:22an easy game for them
00:48:24but their focus
00:48:25will be fully
00:48:25on getting that double
00:48:26last time Celtic
00:48:28and Dunfermline
00:48:29faced each other
00:48:30in the Scottish Cup
00:48:30final was back
00:48:31in 2007
00:48:33doesn't seem that long ago
00:48:34but actually it was
00:48:36Jean-Joel
00:48:37Perrier-Dumbe
00:48:38the slightly unlikely
00:48:40goal scoring hero
00:48:41on the day
00:48:41if I do you remember
00:48:42that game
00:48:43Neil Lennon
00:48:44coincidentally
00:48:45captaining Celtic
00:48:46that day
00:48:49has he changed much?
00:48:51No I think
00:48:52he's looked good
00:48:53he is
00:48:54certainly
00:48:54maybe not as fit
00:48:55as he used to be
00:48:57I think he might
00:48:58tell you that himself
00:48:59but it's a huge day
00:49:00for Neil Lennon
00:49:01obviously
00:49:02certainly is
00:49:02for Dunfermline manager
00:49:04getting Dunfermline
00:49:05into a cup final
00:49:06getting him so close
00:49:07in the playoffs
00:49:08it's been
00:49:08a great job
00:49:09he's done so far
00:49:10also you add in
00:49:11the fact it's
00:49:12against his former club
00:49:13that he played
00:49:13captain and managed
00:49:15so it is a big day
00:49:16but it's a big day
00:49:17for everyone
00:49:18Dunfermline
00:49:18deserve to be there
00:49:19they've been excellent
00:49:20and they'll want to go there
00:49:22and cause one of the
00:49:23biggest upsets
00:49:23we've ever seen
00:49:24Neil Lennon
00:49:25is such a huge
00:49:25competitor obviously
00:49:27and it will be
00:49:28a special day for him
00:49:29obviously up against
00:49:30Martin and Neil
00:49:31I mean there's so many
00:49:31storylines and threads
00:49:33to all of this
00:49:34but let's be honest
00:49:34James
00:49:36everybody
00:49:36apart from
00:49:37Dunfermline athletic fans
00:49:38will be making
00:49:39Celtic
00:49:40huge huge favourites
00:49:41in fact probably
00:49:42quite a few Dunfermline
00:49:43athletic fans
00:49:43will just accept
00:49:44that that's the fact
00:49:44as well
00:49:45I mean how realistic
00:49:47do you see the chance
00:49:48of there being an upset
00:49:49in this final
00:49:51I mean it is slim
00:49:52we have to say
00:49:54but this season
00:49:55we've seen
00:49:56we've seen a lot
00:49:57this season
00:49:58for Furman
00:49:59as you say
00:49:59as long as the players
00:50:00believe they can go
00:50:01and cause an upset
00:50:02then there's a chance
00:50:03they have to believe it
00:50:04they've shown that
00:50:05they're capable of
00:50:06competing against teams
00:50:07in the premiership
00:50:08they beat three
00:50:08on the way to the
00:50:09the final
00:50:10so they've shown
00:50:11they can deal with that
00:50:12kind of pressure
00:50:13and expectation
00:50:14this is going to be
00:50:15totally different
00:50:15you're playing against
00:50:16a side that have just
00:50:16won the league title
00:50:18they're playing against
00:50:19a side that everybody
00:50:20has to make favourites
00:50:21they have to be
00:50:22I don't think there's
00:50:22anything wrong with that
00:50:24you give them a slight
00:50:25chance of causing a huge
00:50:26which would be a massive
00:50:27upset you have to say
00:50:28that'll be some day
00:50:29right
00:50:29time now to quickly
00:50:31round up the rest
00:50:32of the Saturday action
00:50:38Welsh
00:50:41Charles Cook
00:50:42bamboozles Newell
00:50:44plays it to the edge
00:50:46of the box
00:50:46Faddinger
00:50:47unleashes the shot
00:50:53and is that the goal
00:50:55that allows Jens
00:50:57Bertolasco and those fans
00:51:00to get out the passports
00:51:01for next season
00:51:07brilliant run from Charles Cook
00:51:09Faddinger stays calm under
00:51:11pressure to knock it inside
00:51:13and then puts the laces
00:51:14through it
00:51:16slip from Hanley
00:51:18and now it's Eli Just
00:51:19it's three on two
00:51:20from Oluwilt
00:51:21what a chance here
00:51:22Charles Cook
00:51:23Just
00:51:24and now it's Maswanese
00:51:26and that surely
00:51:28would have killed it
00:51:29for the steel men
00:51:31not ruthless enough
00:51:33in that situation
00:51:35as Longello comes forwards
00:51:39oh and then it's a poor
00:51:40pass back
00:51:41Just
00:51:41dancing away from Salinger
00:51:44who smothers the ball
00:51:48ought to be 2-0 to Motherwell
00:51:59Longello's bending ball
00:52:00it drops for Slattery
00:52:02oh
00:52:05magnificent save Salinger
00:52:07and he's got every right
00:52:08to berate his defenders
00:52:09because he's keeping them
00:52:10in it at the moment
00:52:12this look destined for the net
00:52:19Slattery fires in
00:52:20Welsh
00:52:24and that will surely
00:52:25seal fourth place
00:52:26for Motherwell
00:52:30they're jumping for joy
00:52:31in the dugout
00:52:35Nick Walsh is going to be brought
00:52:37across to the monitor
00:52:38across to the monitor
00:52:38to have a look at this
00:52:39and Hibs
00:52:40it looks like
00:52:41we're going to get a lifeline
00:52:42just was holding Salinger
00:52:45impeding the Hibs goalkeeper
00:52:48I'll wait for the final verdict for the final verdict from Nick Walsh
00:52:51but yeah goal chopped off
00:52:58Welsh
00:53:00bubbling about
00:53:02oh and what's caught Miguel Chaiwa here
00:53:04and Nick Walsh is digging into that top pocket
00:53:06and Elliot Walsh is gone
00:53:09sent off
00:53:10and this game
00:53:11has completely turned
00:53:13Motherwell should be out of sight
00:53:16they have a second rolled out
00:53:17and now they're down to ten
00:53:19on 67 minutes
00:53:25Nicky Candon
00:53:26often a source of inspiration for Ebsen
00:53:27he's found Scarlett here
00:53:30how about that
00:53:31for a bit of defending from Tom Sparrow
00:53:35goal saving intervention
00:53:37from the Motherwell man here
00:53:39gets it over his own bar
00:53:42Sparrow's corner
00:53:43outswing our header
00:53:44oh
00:53:47Salinger may have touched that away
00:53:50Hibs goalkeeper playing a blinder
00:53:53as ten man Motherwell still keep attacking
00:54:05off to a strong start here though
00:54:08with Diamande and Moore
00:54:10and Cemiti
00:54:12prodding Rangers in front
00:54:14inside two minutes
00:54:16a fast start from Danny Rowell's team
00:54:19and Rangers off to the best possible start
00:54:27Romance with the throw aiming for Diamande
00:54:30tries to weave his way through
00:54:32it's Cermiti who chests it down
00:54:34what a finish
00:54:37that is right under the top drawer
00:54:39from Rangers number nine
00:54:41that is a brilliant strike
00:54:43from him
00:54:43getting the ball down on his chest
00:54:46and then lashing the ball beyond Hogarth
00:54:482-0 Rangers
00:54:53it's Romance
00:54:54back to Butland
00:54:56it's a horrendous touch
00:54:58and it's gone in for 2-1
00:55:02an almost inexplicable
00:55:05Butland blunder
00:55:07has Folkirk
00:55:08back in the game
00:55:16Nasser Jigal on the move
00:55:17drifting up to the edge of the box
00:55:20in from Cermiti
00:55:22for Ghisama
00:55:23it's 3-1
00:55:26and Jadie Ghisama
00:55:28scores for the first time
00:55:30in three and a half months
00:55:33Calvin Miller
00:55:35with the corner kick
00:55:36big shout for Han Bo
00:55:41VAR
00:55:42will be examining
00:55:44these pictures
00:55:45right now
00:55:52Duncan Nicholson
00:55:54returns
00:55:54from the monitor
00:55:56to say
00:55:57penalty
00:56:02it's Calvin Miller
00:56:04and it's now 3-2
00:56:08and he's finished
00:56:10clinically
00:56:11from the spot
00:56:15Fernandez
00:56:19it's Romance
00:56:20no pressure on the ball
00:56:22and Cermiti
00:56:23there's the hat-trick
00:56:25his second treble
00:56:26of the season
00:56:27as he notches
00:56:29another three goals
00:56:30for Rangers
00:56:33given away by
00:56:35Miller
00:56:35and he's struggling
00:56:37to cope with the pace
00:56:38of Ghisama
00:56:39who's eating up
00:56:41the yards
00:56:43for Cermiti
00:56:44who goes down
00:56:45and it's going to be
00:56:46a penalty
00:56:47against Lewis Nielsen
00:56:54well he thumped one
00:56:55into the top corner
00:56:55from a free kick
00:56:56against Hibbs
00:56:57on Wednesday night
00:56:59and he's blasted in
00:57:01from the penalty spot
00:57:02Telu Asgard
00:57:03for 5-2 Rangers
00:57:08Rangers sign off
00:57:09with a win
00:57:09and the Rangers chairman
00:57:10Andrew Kavanagh
00:57:11today's saying
00:57:12that he's backing
00:57:13Danny Roll
00:57:14for next season
00:57:15and that Rangers
00:57:15will see
00:57:16substantial change
00:57:18in the summer
00:57:19James
00:57:20what do you expect
00:57:21from Rangers
00:57:22next season?
00:57:24I mean
00:57:25they've showed
00:57:25initially
00:57:26under Danny Roll
00:57:27that they could
00:57:27string results together
00:57:29but when it comes to
00:57:30the pressure moments
00:57:32to finish 10 points
00:57:33behind
00:57:34Celtic
00:57:35behind Hearts
00:57:35it's not good enough
00:57:36it's okay saying
00:57:37you can make up ground
00:57:38but when it comes to
00:57:39the point where
00:57:40can you really sustain
00:57:41a title challenge
00:57:42it hasn't been good enough
00:57:43so yeah
00:57:44there will be a lot
00:57:44change in the summer
00:57:45I think there's a lot
00:57:46of lone players
00:57:48that will go back
00:57:49and I think that
00:57:50Danny Roll
00:57:50has a big summer
00:57:51ahead of him
00:57:52to try and get
00:57:53his style of play
00:57:54into these players
00:57:54and make Rangers
00:57:57up there
00:57:58challenging again
00:57:59for the title
00:57:59but we're a bit more
00:58:00about them
00:58:01than they've shown
00:58:02this season
00:58:02great season
00:58:03for your beloved
00:58:04mother wall
00:58:05dreadful
00:58:06dreadful
00:58:06you can't downplay it
00:58:08I'm sorry
00:58:09Jens Bertolaski
00:58:10has done a great job
00:58:11no he's not
00:58:12he wasn't very good
00:58:13I didn't think
00:58:14he was that good
00:58:15massively underachieved
00:58:18so you're going
00:58:19to get rid of him
00:58:19basically
00:58:20I think that
00:58:22what the job
00:58:23he's done
00:58:23has been quite
00:58:24incredible
00:58:24Jens Bertolaski
00:58:25deserves all the
00:58:26applaud that he's
00:58:27received
00:58:27the style of play
00:58:30the way he's
00:58:31rejuvenated some
00:58:32players
00:58:32the exciting
00:58:34brand of football
00:58:35finishing the
00:58:36European spots
00:58:37he's done a
00:58:38tremendous job
00:58:38I just hope
00:58:39that he can stay
00:58:42just for one more
00:58:42season
00:58:43get mother
00:58:43into the group
00:58:43stages of Europe
00:58:44and then really
00:58:45finish the job
00:58:46in style
00:58:46but it's wishful
00:58:48thinking I think
