Real SPL Table 24 Dec 2011

Last updated : 24 December 2011 By Stand Free Ed

Real Scottish People's League Week 20

There was no positional movement in this week's Real SPL, but Motherwell's season-long unbeaten away run was finally ended - and no surprise that it should end at Tynecastle, where Hearts have the country's best home record.

The Gorgie team's 2-0 win, alongside comfortable victories for St Johnstone and Dundee Utd against bottom pair Dunfermline and Hibs respectively, means that suddenly there's a title race on with three teams now within 10 points of leaders Well.

in the bottom half, Inverness continued their revival with a home victory over Aberdeen that gives the Highland club a four-point comfort buffer between them and the Pars, who themselves stay only a point above the RSPL's bottom club Hibernian.
