Football Talk: Just Joan on Rangers, Man United fans invade Etihad

Ryan Esson has signed a new deal with Inverness.SNS Group

The time for talking is nearly over as the curtain comes down on the final Scottish club game of season 2011/12.

Hearts and Hibernian face off in the first all-Edinburgh cup final since 1896 at Hampden tomorrow with excitement levels in the capital reaching fever pitch.

And while Football Talk’s ugly sister Cup Final Talk prepares to go to the ball, we’re at home doing the daily chores like worrying about Scotland’s friendly with the USA, bidding farewell to Dusan Pernis or listening to Mohamed Chalali as he calls Craig Brown a big meanie.

Elsewhere the Premier League season may have finished but you can’t keep the two Manchester club out of the headlines.
