NGL hearts have had a really strong start to the season. derek mcinnes has been outstanding and they have got some incredible results so far. I dont think this is controversial to say but celtic will still win the league just because over long term the squad depth is so much better and they can rotate the team way easier. but with rangers having an actually tragic season so far, with even gerrard negotiations falling through, could we see a 2nd place for hearts?
will hearts split the old firm this season?

I think that’s a fair take. Hearts have definitely looked much more organised and confident this season, and McInnes deserves a lot of credit for that. They’ve picked up results that probably wouldn’t have happened a year ago.
I’d still expect Celtic to win the league for the reasons you mentioned. The squad depth and consistency over a full season are hard for anyone else in Scotland to match. Even when they rotate, the quality barely drops.
As for second place, it honestly feels more open than usual. Rangers look completely off it right now, and if the uncertainty around the manager situation keeps affecting performances, Hearts could absolutely stay in that conversation. The big question is whether Hearts can keep this level up once injuries and fixture congestion start to hit. Cheers.

I called it for the jambos winning back in september, amazing that they kept up for the whole season tbh. I do hope this isn't a one-off for them and they keep up this standard next season, even though the season was awful for celtic and rangers, it's been the most interesting and exciting in forever. Especially with motherwell having a run of good form too in the back half of the season that took a lot of teams by surprise.

Will Hearts is the name of the man, and Old Firm is what he calls your behind.
