McInnes and O’Neill keeping cool as Premiership title race catches fireImage source, SNSByGeorge O’NeillBBC Sport ScotlandPublished28 minutes agoIt seems as though everyone is hyping up the conclusion to the Scottish Premiership title race. Everyone except those involved, that is.With Rangers now arithmetically out of the running after three consecutive losses, it is down to Hearts and defending champions Celtic.The Edinburgh side will be crowned champions of Scotland for the first time since 1960 if they beat Falkirk and Celtic lose at Motherwell on Wednesday.Any other combination of results and it will go to the final game of the season, on Saturday, when the top two face off at Parkhead. Potentially epic.Group chats, office and pub talk, TV, radio and podcast shows – they’re all talking about it, but those at the centre of it are keeping it on the down low.”I’ve just assumed Celtic are going to win the game,” Hearts head coach Derek McInnes mentioned on Tuesday. “I’ve had it in my head that we’re going to the last game.””We’re all guilty of talking a really good game,” Celtic interim boss Martin O’Neill mentioned later in the day. “You have to do it on the pitch.”What is it like for players in a title race?
