The weekend SPFL results increased the headache facing SPFL bosses as they prepare to draw up the post-split Premiership fixtures.

Livingston’s home win over Ross County lifted them into the top six which means that Celtic will have played the other five sides at home twice before the split in four matches time.

The first three rounds of fixtures are based on last season’s final places which saw Hibs and Aberdeen in the bottom six.

In the first batch of fixtures Celtic were away to Ross County and Dundee United but it is now clear that neither of those sides will be in the top half at the end of April.

As it stands Celtic will be given three home matches against two top six sides.

It looks like the final place in the top six will be a battle between St Mirren and Livingston, if the Paisley side make it into the top six the fixture headache will be eased with Stephen Robinson’s side due to visit Celtic Park after the split.

St Mirren are currently a point behind but host Livingston on April 1 before difficult trips to Tynecastle and Ibrox with their final pre-split fixture at home to Kilmarnock.

    I tuned into some Comedy Gold tonight on SSB and wasn’t disappointed,the klown on entertainment duty tonight was Roger the spanner Hannah.
    This FANNY was gloating about the VAR decisions from the weekend,VAR the very thing that is ruining the game with games in total CHAOS every week and this FUD was loving it.
    The word he used to describe the VAR CHAOS was WONDERFUL it will keep us journalists in a job for years,keep it here.

    A Celtic fan phoned in to call for Crawford Allen the guy in charge of the ref’s to be sacked,Roger the spanner what a surprise didn’t agree with him neither did the FUD on the pundit panel nae eyes Miller.

    Funny how they are all sticking by the officials that seem to be making these so called HONEST MISTAKES every week that has an impact on every club playing other than sevco,until it comes knocking the sevco door,then we will hear the SCREAMS of Calimero, It’s An Injustice.
