Woah Hearts putting on a bit of a run at the moment 3 points off 2nd and 6 of the lead though both clubs have a game in hand at the moment. Interesting times.
 
Hearts 1-1 Inverness Caley Thistle
Kilmarnock 2-1 Hibernian

Mildly disappointed that we didn't manage to be Inverness at home but they've managed to keep up their very impressive record on the road. Hibs still fairly close to the bottom of the League but with Aberdeen and Hamilton vying to be the worst I think they should be pretty safe this season.
 
Would think that Terry Butcher would be manager of the year if Caley qualify for Europe given the ICT finances compared to the rest of the league. Certainly impressed from those thinking they'd be relegation candidates and a possible future manager at Rangers if Ally McCoist doesn't work out.

I think Hibs are strong enough to finish in the top six if they find some form though again finances could be playing a part in their season with trying to balance the books. Probably the two top surprises so far are Caley and Kilmarnock since I thought they'd be fighting relegation by now or at least in the bottom six.

Anyway, what do people think of the proposals to change the league? I'm in favour of two leagues of 16 teams to improve the youth game but I doubt clubs would be willing to lose the Old Firm/TV money and a 10-team league would just result in the same old scared bottom clubs afraid of making changes in case it relegates them.

Would probably also mean a change to the SPL/SFA structure that Celtic want especially with the referee furore.

Another day of excitement for the Celtic fans with two goals late in injury time, wonder if the NHS can sue for number of pills they have to give fans at this rate? :p :D

Comprehensive win for Rangers against Motherwell and a win for Aberdeen against Hibs so should be an interesting bit of festive football in the next fortnight.
 
Two late goals seal a win for Celtic when any other day it would have been six or seven. Hitting the bar, spinning inches by the post and yet another stone wall penalty claim waved away.
 
Hamilton 0 - 1 Aberdeen

Won 2 games in a row to end the year. 6 points clear of bottom (although Hamilton have 2 games in hand) and leapfrogged Hibs :p Good times until New Year!!
 
Celtic win 1-0 against Motherwell. Scott Brown sent off and misses Rangers match on Sunday. Was never a second yellow. Mistake by the referee.
 
Motherwell tried hard to hobble the entire Celtic team. I was very surprised that none of their players where sent off and then Broony gets picked on. Celtic being unfairly treated again. Oh, and yet another disallowed goal.
 
I've said it before, and I'm saying it again - Aberdeen will win the leauge!
Ok, maybe not. But, I'm predicting a decent finish. 4th or 5th. It's going to be an exciting couple of weeks though.
