Aberdeen with another last minute equaliser! :o

It's a lot like the other one too, the cross came from much further but the header in was from very close to the same place.

Penalties.

I'm rooting for Aberdeen because they always come prepared for Europe and winning this cup is the only way they can get in.

Hart takes the 5th penalty for Celtic and hits the post himself!

Hart redeems himself with a save and makes the final the last game of his career. 6-5 Celtic win. In that case, let's have a Celtic / Rangers final!

This officially opens 5th place for Europe as Hearts can't finish below 4th. 3rd gets guaranteed group stage, should be Hearts as they have an 11pt lead over Kilmarnock.

Dundee United have pretty much secured a return to the premiership with a 1-0 win today. They have a 6pt lead with 2 games to play and a huge goal difference advantage

Rangers score early through the middle. Early goal didn't help Aberdeen in the end, let's see if it helps Rangers.

A double for Dessers. He gets two chances and puts the second away into the bottom corner, 2-0.

Celtic vs Rangers is MD3 of the split, 11th May.

The Championship will wrap up on the 3rd May. @Michael S Collins's Thistle are in the playoffs. They will finish either 3rd or 4th, so just like last year will have to win through three rounds of playoffs for promotion. Their opponent is Airdrieonians and Raith Rovers will be the opponent for the winner. Dundee United are promoted.

Dundee united have returned to the premiership. I am hoping Airdrie win the play offs and move to the top league as well to revive the rivalry between Motherwell and them. They were bitter rivals in the past, more so than other Lanarkshire teams but due to them being in different divisions for so long it has gone a bit

Celtic and Rangers both record 2-1 wins away from home. Celtic retain a 3pt lead and +5GD with 4 games to go.

Celtic have 3 home games left (Hearts, Rangers and St. mirren) and one away game (Kilmarnock)

Rangers have 2 away games (Celtic and Hearts) and 2 at home (Kilmarnock and Dundee)
