"i can't say i would be too unhappy if some one else wins the league this year" Not very likely though. Just look at the stats over the past five years. The highest placed non Old Firm team are usually some way behind the leaders. Motherwell were 31 pts behind in 2012; Hearts 30 pts in 2011; Dundee Utd 24 pts in 2010; Hearts 27 pts in 2009; and Motherwell 29 pts in 2008.
