After four difficult years, Rangers are back in the Scottish Premiership and that means two things. Firstly, Scottish football gets a huge boost and should attract more media attention in 2016-17 – if nothing else, Rangers’ return to the top flight should mean that the division is a lot more competitive next season. But secondly – [Read more]
With few exceptions, success in football is difficult to sustain, and even the most prestigious clubs and national teams in history have their down periods. And even though it might feel like Scotland has always been a second-tier (or lower, depending on who you ask) footballing nation, it’s important to remember that things haven’t always [Read more]
As has been mentioned on the podcast before, we are officially in the business end of the season. When the going gets tough, the tough get up and leave, and that means Greig and Krys. Greig is off helping Ian Baraclough with his homework prior to the play off final, and Krys is dropped for [Read more]
Krys gets another shot of hosting so he can bask in the glory of his team’s triumph in capturing the first domestic honours of the season. But being the humble kind, he immediately hands over to this week’s guests John and Greig so they can talk about their teams’ Friday night battle in the Premiership. [Read more]
It’s a game which is certain to evoke memories of the 1967 European Cup final when Celtic take on Inter Milan in the last 32 of the Europa League. The famous Lisbon Lions became the first British club to win the European Cup when second-half goals from Tommy Gemmell and Stevie Chalmers earned Jock Stein’s [Read more]
It’s transfer deadline day and Greig is missing, presumably in talks with another podcast. 1-1 draws, transfers, semi finals, naughty songs, crap pitches, bawbags, cola, Prem predictions and of course the charity bet, all feature. Declan McManus is our pick for the first scorer charity bet this weekend. We have also went for a treble of [Read more]
As the midway point of the Scottish Premiership campaign approaches, Celtic fans can now reflect on the first six months under the stewardship of 39-year-old Norwegian coach Ronny Delia. Former Strømsgodset manager Deila joined the Scottish champions in June following the departure of Neil Lennon who spent much of the last fourteen years at the [Read more]
After a decent start (Ronny scoring anytime) with Best Bet roundup on Wednesday we’re back to domestic matters at the weekend, there a few games which catch the eye and my thoughts are as follows. Aberdeen v Motherwell A return to Friday night football has the Dons versus Stuart McCall’s struggling Motherwell side. The home [Read more]
Much has been made in recent times about the sorry state of Scottish football and the dire situation that our game is in. The national side may have experienced a slight resurgence in form of late, however our club game has seldom been so heavily criticised. I’ve never been convinced that our game is quite [Read more]
For the third week in a row, Krys and Greig join me to discuss Scottish Fitba. Motherwell, St Johnstone and Celtic all featured in Europe last week. Results didn’t go in Motherwell or St Johnstone’s favour, but at least Celtic got through. I didn’t manage to get a steak and chorizo pie at McDiarmid Park, [Read more]
