4 - 0 that's a good result to wake up to.

Hibs were a class above, 2-0 at halftime flattered Rangers. Rangers first attempt on goal was over 30 minutes into match. Neil McCann was saying in the pre-match how the Rangers caretaker manager looked like he didn't want the job, definitely won't now! I think McCoist has to be to blame for how bad Rangers looked though. Rangers really need to turn things around big time if want to get promoted. Hibs looked like they've got a decent team again.

Will be hysterically funny if Rangers don't make the play-offs!

Or if Hibs get up to 2nd (which isn't looking unlikely) and Rangers get thumped by Queen of the South or someone in first round of playoffs.

Hearts vs Sevco this Friday ,if the Jam Tarts win then they will be sixteen points ahead of the next team (a recently formed Glasgow team ) they would then have to lose five games two of which are not against the new Glasgow team or Hibernian ,surely the bookies will pay out !

Hearts win the Scottish Chumpionship after H*bs lost at home to The Rangers (newco)!!!  There must be a Jambo in footballing heaven that keeps creating these headlines!

Good article on how the new club management is working at Tynecastle:

This is a brilliant turn around on those horrible last few years under Mad Vlad.

Gonna be a tight finish to see who gets that second spot and the direct to the semi final for promotion. 

Come on you Hibbies.

Yep well done to the Jambos. Played good football all season. Developed a young squad and will challenge everyone in the top tier next season.

Brilliant result for the Steelmen this morning in turning over the Huns at Ibrox. Hopefully they don't do a H*bs and get turned over in the reverse fixture. It would be delicious to see The Rangers (NewCo) and H*bs stuck in the 2nd tier for another season!

Rangers in turmoil. Ashley wants his 5M back. NewCo directors are baffled that merch revenue has dried up under Ashley skimming off the top. And another year in the Championship.

I'm guessing the 2nd highest wage bill (allegedly) in Scottish football, while sitting in the Championship, isn't helping. Their huge sense of entitlement has meant that obscene amounts of money, that they don't actually have, has been thrown at trying to get back into the Premiership and it's coming back to bite them. I know loads of Rangers fans who think they should have bit the bullet, invested in youth and slowly built their way back onto the top flight. Club is an embarrassment, I have zero sympathy for them.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Nah. You have to spend the money and get back up as soon as possible. If we could have invested in youth at the same time then that would be great. Can't have another year in the Championship. Unfortunately Hearts having a bad year doomed us but I never would have thought the season would go as it did.

New 6 figure sponsorship deal, and sponsor's logo and mascot designed by a Turner prize winning artist. Never thought I'd see my beloved Thistle trending worldwide. It's a PR masterstroke.

That looks like something that should have been at the world cup in South Africa or Brazil. Russia will just have Boris the Bear probably. 11 dancing  bears at the opening.

Well done Hibs. Beating a Rnagers whom won your division by a country mileis a great effort. Do you play in the Europa Cup.

Yup,  2nd Qualifying round July 14th and 21st. Hibs are unseeded. Hearts and Aberdeen qualifying for the 1st Round, both teams seeded. Games 30/6 and 7/7. Odds on a Hearts v Hibs 2nd round fixture if the Jambos get through!?!

I'd hardly call 11 points a country mile - Not when Celtic won the Premiership 16 points and Dunfermline Div 1 by 18 points (Rangers only won 4 more games than Hibs)

not much - well none, as teams from the same association can't be drawn against each other in the qualifying rounds
