0 Celtic v St Mirren Celtic Park. Glasgow. (Buses 61. 62. 64) IfFrank McGarvey hasn‘t moved elsewhere by now — and who’d want him — then he will. as usual. be eager to do well in this game and prove Celtic were wrong to let him go.
I Clydebank v Dundee Kilbowie. Clydebank. (Ground 5 mins walk from Singer Station) Clydebank. who have shown how an ambitious small club can be run, deserve every success but might find Dundee a wee bit too strong for them.
0 Hamilton v Hibernian Douglas Park. Hamilton. (Ground is 15 mins away from Hamilton Bus station) Hamilton about to enter a slightly less exhausting few fixtures should not under-rate a Hibs team capable of beating anyone on their day.

0 Celtic v Hearts Celtic Park. Glasgow (see above). Glasgow City Centre a place to avoid tonight with Rangers. Celtic. Hibs and Hearts fans about. Not that it will be violent just awfully busy.
0 Falkirk vaerdeen Brockville. Falkirk. (Ground 100 yards from Falkirk Grahamstown station) I‘ve a sneaky feeling the Dons won‘t like this one.
0 Hamilton v Dundee Douglas Park. Hamilton (see above). Even at this stage in the season. Hamilton will be pondering their fate next year. Dundee should be aiming for Europe.
0 Hibs V Clydebank Easter Road, Edinburgh. (Buses 4. 15, 42. 44) It‘s a long way back to Clydebank in the dark.
0 St Mirren v Hangers Love Street. Paisley. (Ground a short walk from Gilmour Street station). A short trip ; for the ‘gers which, on current form
I should prove fruitful. I‘m sure

0 Hearts v St Mirren Tynecastle, Edinburgh (see above). Even six months ago St Mirren would have been extremely uneasy about this trip but will feel more confident this season. Maybe Alex MacDonald should start playing again.
