"Ourselves, regardless of the results going into the split, we'll be in a good, decent position going into it but the whole psychological thing is quite fascinating. Everybody else gets caught up in it all, it's great to comment on it and there's been loads of comment this season on the league, and that can only be a good thing."
"I don't think that way, I don't think we can allow ourselves to think that way, it's just all about trying to deal with the next game."
"Having seen Livingston over the last wee while, it's a tough enough game for us to be thinking about anything else other than just a good performance to help us win the game."
"Celtic have lost eight league games, with interim manager Martin O'Neill conceding any more dropped points would make it 'difficult - but not impossible' for the defending champions."
Derek McInnes sees no psychological advantage in teams playing before their rivals in the Scottish Premiership. Rangers, currently second, face Dundee United, while Hearts play Livingston. McInnes emphasizes focusing on each game rather than the psychological impact of results. He acknowledges the competitive nature of the league but insists that teams must concentrate on their own performances. Livingston, at the bottom of the table, presents a challenge despite their poor record. Celtic's interim manager recognizes the difficulty of losing more points in the title race.
