One Premiership match on this evening as leaders Celtic host 10th placed Dundee in the match originally cancelled because of damage to Celtic Park caused by Storm Éowyn a couple weeks back.

Note that Morton are away again tomorrow, and not playing next weekend. That means their home league game against Airdrie on 15th February will be their first home match this YEAR. That has got to be hurting the old bank balance.

Morning shaggers! Three SPFL games on the telly this weekend, spread over the three days.

Rangers vs Union Saint-Gilloise UEFA Europa League League Stage MD8 Rangers wrap up their league stage campaign with a home tie this evening against Belgians Union Saint-Gilloise. Here's the micro preview....

Aston Villa vs Celtic UEFA Champions League League Stage MD8 Celtic wrap up their league stage campaign in Birmingham this evening in yet another battle of Britain as they go head to head with Aston Villa. Here's the micro preview.....

A good win for Raith Rovers on the road last night as they swept aside Hamilton at NDP. Accies with 3 defeats on the bounce now though and leaking an alarming amount of goals, that's now 10 conceded in their last four outings.

Dundee Utd confirming Alan Domeracki has joined Norwich City for an undisclosed fee. Another in a long line of academy prospects across the Premiership being hoovered up by clubs down South before they've kicked a first team ball in Scotland.

Kieran Tierney coming back is an outstanding bit of business for Celtic. Will be a huge asset to both Celtic and Scotland if he can get fully fit and playing regularly every week. An absolute baller.

Unsurprising to see Rangers win the appeal against Diomande's ridiculous red card at Tannadice on Sunday. The timing of this incident and the score at the time meant it had zero impact on the final result but it's still an absolute riddy (pun intended) for Nick Walsh, for Willie Collum and the SFA.

Having a good search engine ranking for Bovril is sometimes a curse.

Our friends @McBookie don't yet have the next Motherwell manager market odds up but this list has appeared elsewhere; John McGlynn 6/5 Neil Lennon 7/5 David Martindale 5/2 Scott Brown 11/4 Steven Naismith 3/1 Fredrik Holmberg 7/2 Kris Doolan 4/1 Scott Gemmil 5/1 11/2 bar

Sorry I've been neglecting the account over here, find it very difficult to go back to short form posts, means it's a pain in the arse copying content from X to Bluesky and having to chop it all up. Coming exclusively over here is an option but not one I'm ready to take just yet.

Of course there's also a full Premiership card on this weekend with 4 games on Saturday and 2 televised matches on Sunday. Your live TV matches are; St.Johnstone vs Rangers 12:00, Sunday, SKY Sports Image Hearts vs Aberdeen 15:00, Sunday, Premier Sports Have a good weekend shaggers!
