    Aberdeen and Hibs out of the top 6,

    Rose County get in and Motherwell score an injury time goal to sneak in.

    Would have got good odds on that !

    Aberdeen and Hibs have massively underperformed this season. Amazing run from Ross County, who looked like relegation certainties earlier in the season.

    Both have been shocking and it looks like there is a lot of dressing room drama up at Aberdeen.

    Ross County have benefited from having Hugbo and Charles Cook this season, arguably the two of the best attacking players in the league this season, teams like Hibs and Aberdeen should be all over them.

    As I know changing managers a few times isn't always the answer whereas Ross County kept with Mackay after a tough start.

    Yes Hungbo has done well - hopefully can get a chance with us in the Championship.

    Hearts will hope it’s a repeat of the 1998 final and not 1996 which were very contrasting !

    Shaun Maloney sacked by Hibs after just 4 months. Simply wasn't working out for him at Easter Road.

    Maybe next D*rby manager? He's the sort of level they'll be looking at when Rooney buggers off

    Think the trouble for him that he was trying to get Hibs to play like Belgium where Maloney was a coach .

    Looks like you are getting VAR next season/.

    Good luck with that - it might be useful on occasions but you'll probably still get strange "incorrect" decisions but have to wait for ages for them to decide on something.

    Happy VAR is coming in. It’s the way forward regardless of what teething issues it’ll inevitably have.

    Shame for Arbroath, the only part-time team in the division, just ran out of steam. They are in the play-offs but I think their big chance has probably eluded them.

    Kilmarnock return with their terrible pitch. They should be banned from the top flight. An embarrassment.

    I noticed the same player got booked when he was actually poked in the face by the Livingston keeper as he was trying to stop a goal kick so his card is now marked and reputation is mud.

    Crazy pass across his own area in such an important game for his team .

    He would probably be doing better if he wasn't in the papers and on football shows talking about Rangers all season.

    Dundee should have kicked him out the club last year.

    Arbroath gone into extra time v 10 man Inverness in their play-off game.

    Suspect St Johnstone would fancy beating either over 2 legs?

    Arbroath missed the boat there, up against nine men and losing on penalties. Reckon St Johnstone will have too much for Inverness in the final.
