  1. Until next time...published at 17:48 GMT 22 February

    Well, well. What a day in the Scottish Premiership title race.

    Celtic beaten at home, Rangers drawing away to the league's bottom side.

    Advantage Hearts.

    Motherwell win emphatically, Hearts win as well and that applies pressure.

    The two teams from Glasgow have buckled under the pressure today.

    Next week, Hearts at home against Aberdeen and Motherwell at home against Dundee United. Same sort of thing. Motherwell would go one point behind Celtic and three behind Rangers before those two play each other the next day.

    It is not beyond the realms of possibility that Motherwell could finish above Celtic or Rangers, maybe both of them.

    Celtic and Rangers could be third and fourth in the table.

    Martin says we were terrific. Is he serious? Our defence is rubbish, the midfield go sideways or back and we have no one capable of scoring up front. He is deluded if he thinks that was a good performance. And don't even get me started on Trusty - what a buffoon

    Steve

    Seriously Martin you were not terrific, stop coming out with these platitudes, you were bang off it and you know it, if you play like that next week, wow, it will be a no contest

  4. Gray not giving up on catching 'Wellpublished at 17:41 GMT 22 February

    FT: Celtic 1-2 Hibernian

    Hibs head coach David Gray: "It's been a long time coming. That's twice we've been here [this season] and not lost. It shows we are capable if we go toe-to-toe, but it takes a level of performance, that requires every man to be at their very best.

    "It's all about us. How can we keep improving? It's a massive three points today on the back of a positive result last week against St Mirren. That's us five points behind Motherwell, still to play them twice and all the teams round about us.

    "It's all to play for between now and the end of the season and we'll be aiming to push up the table as hard as we can. All you can do is take one game at a time."

  5. 'Players gave me everything'published at 17:38 GMT 22 February

    FT: Livingston 2-2 Rangers

    Livingston manager Marvin Bartley tells BBC Scotland: "A real rollercoaster of emotions, but you have to remember who we're playing against. If you'd offered me 2-2 beforee the game I would have taken it.

    "At 2-0 up we looked pretty comfortable. The turning point was the sending off.

    "The players gave me everything today and that's all I can ask for.

    "It's going to take a lot for us to get out of this situation but I saw a lot of things I liked today.

    "For me the referee has got [the red card] right. No complaints at all. The players stood up down to 10 and that's all I can ask."

    On Rangers' late claims for a penalty, Bartley adds: "When the referee said play on, I was delighted. I've not seen the tackle back to see if it's outside the box.

    "Talking of decisions, I thought Danny Wilson was fouled in the build-up to one of their goals."

    Hearts fan here. At the start of January I saw there were 9/10 matches in January and February due to various midweek slots, and then only four in march and April combined. I thought "if we're still top at end if Feb, we'll do it". We are now guaranteed top after the Old Firm game. Huge chance, don't blow it.

    Hibs are capable of kicking on. They have strong foundations in place. It's just David Gray's second season as a manager and I think he's improving all the time.

  8. 'It's a clear foul' - Rohlpublished at 17:31 GMT 22 February

    FT: Livingston 2-2 Rangers

    Rangers head coach Danny Rohl tells BBC Scotland: "Disappointed that we didn't take three points.

    "We give them the set-plays too easily and then we tried everything. Big compliment to the team, to the supporters who pushed us."

    On the challenge on Mikey Moore, late in the game, Rohl adds: "I can't understand when you see the replay and it's a clear foul, then the decision. In my view it was on the line and it's a penalty.

    "It's a clear foul. Mikey said to me and you see on the replay. It's a pen but we have to move forward."

    With Celtic up next, Rohl is relishing the run-in.

    "We showed again our comeback character," he says. "Ten games to go and it is an exciting race.

    "We are disappointed but we go again. We have to carry on. We cannot think too much about the past and I totally believe, the players believe, the club believe and the supporters believe we can do it.

    "We showed against Hearts that we can beat top of the league. Next week we have the next challenge. We will hunt again and again."

  9. 'We're still in the race'published at 17:26 GMT 22 February

    FT: Celtic 1-2 Hibernian

    "It's a setback, that's all it is," says Celtic boss Martin O'Neill. "We're still in the race.

    "I thought we were absolutely terrific. The players put heart and soul into the game. No complaints on that side whatsoever."

    On the Auston Trusty red card, he says: "I can only go on what the referee told me. He was just going to have a word with the two players then VAR has intervened to say it was violent conduct.

    "It looked pretty harsh considering the player was holding on to Trusty.

    "We had a good claim for a penalty too with Scales being held, his shirt is being tugged and it's not given."

    On the quest to defend Celtic's title, O'Neill continues: "We've been chasing for months now. There's not much room for error but we can still fight back.

    "The players are disappointed but it's not over."

    Without doubt, there is a lack of cutting edge at Celtic.

    What's up with Adamu? They need a goal and they put on Maeda, who is nowhere near the levels he was at before.

  11. 'Rangers huffed and puffed'published at 17:17 GMT 22 February

    It had a bit of everything.

    Livingston were terrific. Marvin will be delighted - he would have taken a point before the game.

    For Rangers - too much huffing and puffing, they lacked a little bit in the final third.

    Celtic are there for the taking. Weak at the back, a bit washy in midfield, no real striker apart from Nygren - he cant always get them out of jail

    It all changed with Trusty's sending off. Hibs handled the game very well after that.

    Celtic couldn't get any momentum and it's a brilliant goal from Kai Andrews.

    Celtic didn't create anything. They ran out of luck.

    It looks like Hearts are the team that can only throw it away. They are in an unbelievable position.

    Celtic and Rangers have still got to play each other twice.

    Everything is on the line.

    The permutations from all these games are incredible. That's what makes this season so exciting.

    There are four teams competing at the top and Hibs, in fifth, are capable of coming to Parkhead and beating the champions.

    Hearts host Aberdeen on Saturday.

    Rangers and Celtic meet at Ibrox on Sunday.

    Can we just fast-forward to next weekend?

    Hearts are four points in front of Rangers. The top two each have 10 games remaining.

    Celtic are six behind the leaders, with 11 matches to play.

  18. FULL-TIME Livingston 2-2 Rangerspublished at 17:00 GMT 22 February

    Rangers follow Celtic in dropping points.

    For a long time, it looked like Danny Rohl's side wouldn't get anything in the West Lothian.

    But then Emmanuel Fernandez and Mikey Moore scored after the 80th minute to set up a tense finale after a red card for home defender Cristiano Montano.

    But Livi held out, somehow.

  20. FULL-TIME Celtic 1-2 Hibernianpublished at 16:56 GMT 22 February

    Hibs win at Celtic Park for the first time since January 2010.

    Felix Passlack crashed in a header from a great Nicky Cadden delivery to give the visitors the lead, with Benjamin Nygren equalising just before half-time.

    Celtic pressed and pressed without opening Hibs up and then Auston Trusty was sent off for an angry chop at Jamie McGrath.

    Hibs made the most of their advantage when Kai Andrews picked his spot with a composed finish.
