Top v bottom as Hearts play their last league match at Parkhead for a while as they head for the lower division football.  Just before Christmas and typically the crowd was poor and so was the game.  After losing seven in the cup Hearts defended in numbers and nearly stole a point when a last minute header was cleared off the line by goalscorer, Commons before second half sub, James Forrest wrapped up the win in injury time.

Awful day for football - heavy rain, gusty winds and winter cold. Unfortunately the game mirrored the conditions.

Personal note:
103rd Battle of the Greens (90 in league)
108th Hibs match (92 in league)

An outrageous performance from Celtic to progress in the cup.  Nevermind the goals from start to finish the back four passed the ball for fun.  This was Celtic's biggest ever win over Hearts.

Personal note:  117th Celtic tie in the cup including 8 against Hearts
