[From Despair To Where?]

Just a bizarre appointment really, I'm amazed they didn't go back to Postecoglu, given he was available when they sacked Rodgers. Having said that, O'Neill did well as caretaker.

I can't see how he can survive. Celtic are a shambles behind the scenes at the moment though, because all things being equal, they should be walking the league with the squad they've got.

Good result for Rangers which makes it the most competitive it has been for years at the top of the league with now 3 teams in with a chance.

Thing is, Rangers are an absolute mess off the field as well. It's very rare for both Old Firm clubs to be like that and I really hope Hearts can capitalise.

Stranraer may lose their lucrative 5th round cup match at Ibrox because of a cock-up in the 4th round replay.

We can confirm that an appeal has been made to the Scottish FA regarding the eligibility of goalkeeper Lyndon Tas.
Agreement had been reached with Hamilton Academical for Josh Lane to feature in the Scottish Cup 4th Round on Saturday, but this was refused for the rearranged fixture on Tuesday night.
With only one goalkeeper in our playing squad, we acted quickly in good faith to recruit a goalkeeper on loan with help from Heart of Midlothian.
Scottish Cup competition rules state that where fixtures are rearranged, any new player must be registered by the date of the original tie, unless signed on an emergency loan.
The question was raised as to whether the signing of Lyndon qualifies as an emergency loan, and we are deemed to have breached that regulation.
We will have the opportunity to present our case and provide mitigation to the panel in due course.

Shame - the income from that match would have made such a massive difference to them.
