Overview
- After the weekend’s results, only three points separate Hearts, Rangers and Celtic with five split fixtures left to decide the Premiership.
- Rangers’ momentum grew following Sunday’s 6-3 comeback at Falkirk, with manager Danny Rohl crediting “months of development” for the team’s upturn.
- Scrutiny of Celtic intensified as Chris Sutton said he is ruling them out, and talkSPORT highlighted a steep goals drop to 59 in 33 league games after 112 in 38 last season.
- Debate over the post-split schedule persisted on Tuesday when Ally McCoist softened earlier claims of bias and flagged a possible final‑day quirk if Falkirk reach the Scottish Cup Final and rest players.
- Fans face tight access at Tynecastle, where Rangers received 576 away tickets for the top-of-the-table visit, with more than 16,900 applications for the small allocation.
