This weekend's game will be huge now. Celtic away to on form Motherwell who have already beat them this season and Aberdeen away to Hearts on Friday night.

I would think if Aberdeen win their last 6 matches they will probably be champions but it's a very tough ask.

No way will Aberdeen be champions. They will lose to Hearts. Celtic will stumble to the title but it will be enough.

What makes you think we will lose to Hearts? Last league game at Tynecastle we were 3-0 up at Half time.

With any luck Hearts players will still be shitting themselves come Friday.

So will Rangers challenge Celtic at all next season or a case of consolidation?

The way this season has gone - Hearts will win on Friday night.

Followed by Motherwell winning on Saturday.

Both of us could quite easily drop points this weekend.

There's a decent chance Rangers will put in a challenge. After all, Aberdeen have done it this season.

Well done to everyone at Rangers.

That performance today from Hamilton was worse than what they produced at Parkhead when they conceded 8 recently. If we had Rooney and were a bit more clinical that could easily have been double figures,

If Jonny Hayes keeps playing as he is and get to the Euro's then I think he'll be off in the summer.
It’s not that big a deal Hamilton losing 3-0 at Pittodrie.

After all where teams in the league get cuffed 3-0 in a match every now and then, get similarly totally outplayed the whole 90 and only produce the rare foray into the opponents half producing only 2 or 3 shots at goal all game.

The SFA have wheeled out Craig Thomson as Ref for the Celtic semi, Bobby Madden as 4th official and Doug Ross as a linesman - doing their best to favour a certain new club. Celtic players will need to be well informed about them and ensure we give them no excuses to help their favourite team.

So the SFA ( where Celtic have a direct influence) has a "new club" as their favourite team ?

On another point, can anyone tell me when the last time Celtic Park was sold out when Celtic were actually playing ?

From 1996-2015, Celtic sold 191,333 season tickets more than the clubs from Ibrox.

An average of 10,070 per season. Theres your dinner

Celtic's average is 49,281 per season and Rangers and The Rangers' are 39,274 per season.

In the Last 19 season guess how many times Celtic have sold the most season tickets in Scotland? i'll give you a hint EVERY SEASON

What about Gate receipts you say?

Celtic £32.6million in 2013, £28million in 2014 and £28.2million in 2015.

The Ibrox club? £13.2million in 2013, £12.3million in 2014 and £11.6million in 2015.

Celtic fans on average handing over £17.2million more to their club a year than The Rangers' fans

Stars like Colin Kazim-Richards don't come cheap I suppose.

Cheap enough for Celtic only to have £7.05million of loans/overdraft. The new Ibrox club has £8.75million of loans.

Only one club living beyond it's means

What's everybody's thoughts on the playoffs?

Dundee United, Hibs, Raith, Dunfermline, St Mirren and maybe another team like Kilmarnock could drop down surely reconstruction still has to be on the cards? I fear with Rangers being up they won't care what the teams in the top flight now?

Even 14 teams would be progress.

We don't know who is in the playoffs yet, but hopefully Dundee Utd go down and Hibs stay down. No league reconstruction is needed.

You still won't win the title next season. Top six finish only.
