What dramatic weekend tells us about Premiership title race


Celtic fan David: “Wow that result just goes to show that Celtic have not given up on winning the title this season. Let’s hope the players respond for the rest of the season. Big games coming up.”

Hearts supporter Mike: “Unfortunately our three high profile signings, Ageu, Chesnokov and Kabore were posted missing in the 45 minutes they each played. We are really missing Cammy and Shanks. Rangers are a different team to the one we beat twice already this season. Playing with confidence and probably favourites for the title. However, we are still top and need to win our next matches before the split.”

Motherwell fan Derek: “I’m calling on all Motherwell fans to pinch themselves. This is absolutely the best time since the Ancell Babes. In folklore, we’ve had this team’s exploits passed down through the generations. Even the Willie Pettigrew years can’t beat this. A trophy would be the icing on the cake. Take a bow, Jens Berthel Aaskou.”

Rangers supporter Chris: “We have played two of the form teams this week and finished it closer to the top of table than we started. The second half performance against Hearts was as good as we have played this season. But I think the season will likely go down to the wire. They are all big games now.”

Hearts fan Frank: “To keep our challenge up we need to dispatch Falkirk and Aberdeen next – two of the few clubs who have beaten us this season. Realistically, we are punching above our weight and need the Old Firm to lose nerve, but under their new managers I don’t think that’s likely.

“I’ve enjoyed the ride so far but have never got carried away. If you’d told me at the beginning of the season that we would be disappointed with third place I’d have laughed out loud.”

Rangers fan Elaine: “At last! A team with some fight about them. Brilliant to see big Youssef Chermitti getting his hat-trick. Now we can believe we are in a title race. If we hadn’t gifted Hearts two goals, they never looked like scoring. Now we hunt!”

Celtic fan Henry: “Fantastic result at a tricky venue, we have a game in hand and are only three points behind the league leaders. Celtic can still win this league. All the supporters need to get behind the team and stop all this ‘sack the board’ nonsense.”

Motherwell fan Stuart: Wasn’t the best performance by a long way, but possibly more satisfying to win when not playing as well as we have had in recent games. We were a bit careless in possession and gifted opportunities to Aberdeen, but created some great chances for ourselves. We still need to be more clinical, but I’m living the dream as a Motherwell fan this year – where could we end up?
