this doesn't download. can anyone help?
why do all the other clubs in the league get forgotten about everytime this fixture comes around!
controversy around a rangers penalty and no podcast, toeing the bbc/ebt party line
LoL the jocks whining
I don't always agree with Steven Pressley, but the guy talks sense and speaks with real passion.
Darryl Broadfoot, in my opinion, is an arrogant, patronising attention-seeker.
Just a load of drivel about rugby... Shoddy work, BBC.
Haha haha hahaha!
Did this get uploaded properly? It won’t play, yet all the rest are playing fine?
This is my go to podcast everyday. As a Scot living in California for the past 8 years, its been a fantastic way to stay connected to Scottish Football, and I enjoy the pundits and their different styles of analyzing.... even Craig Levein, and that's a difficult thing to say as a Hibee!
Finally! Someone using the correct plural of stadium. Thank you Neil Doncaster for saying 'stadia'.
Barnes was obviously out of his depth at Celtic, hence he never had the dressing room. He claims unconscious bias got him sacked early, his record and the fact he did not have a history with the club are the reason he was sacked. #JohnBarnesWasShiteNotBlack
HH 9IAR,never in doubt 🍀
Celtic have never won 9* in a row when they had to play Rangers 4 times in a season. Rangers have. So they both start again at zero.
I normally listen to these podcasts and enjoy the pretty much well balanced views of all the guys , but when I heard Charlie Adam was on I've just switched it off because he's an idiot
C'mon we want mikey
