Ah'll give ye world class basics Recorded four hours before the transfer window "slammed shut," some of it may not date well, but depressingly, we suspect it will probably still be bang on the money. We look back on two decent performances with decent results and then have a quick preview of the upcoming league and cup games. We then discuss the transfer window, and it's fair to say that we're very much in the underwhelmed camp. It's been a while since we've got a window "right" and it'...
In a Sweeney's Law heavy episode, Chris and Paul discuss our draws in Bologna and Edinburgh. Both with a sense of what could have been. Of course, it couldn't be a game against Hearts without their keeper and manager getting it tight. We then go on to discuss the two home games this week, and that leads "nicely" into another discussion about the transfer window, which is very "deja vu" heavy. We then have a chat about the upcoming collective meeting, which gets interrupted at one point by Ama...
Another "What a riddy" episode. We pick over the Falkirk game, but as we said last week, all that mattered was the three points. And we got them Sunday's game joins Stranraer in 1988, Whitehill Welfare and a few other " cup classics" as embarrassing performances/results against lower league opposition. Both of these things would be okay had we had a couple of new faces in the stand, or heaven forfend, actually on the pitch. The transfer ineptitude is the main focus of the lads' ire, esp...
The episode title will make sense, but not until the very end of the recording. It's a mixed bag tonight; technical issues forced us to restart the recording. Some Phil Collins-related GOLD fell by the wayside, much to the annoyance of our man in the east. Paul gave us a bit of an update from last week's collective meeting. As you can imagine, Nancy getting bagged changed the mood at that meeting as it did on our podcast recording. The two boys discuss Saturday's game against United and...
Well, developments on Monday had already made one of the contributors' voice notes redundant, and we were winding up for a lengthy debate about the new manager when a text message brought any speculation to a halt. With Paul away on Collective SG business we got Davie Farrell in to take his place. We had a chat about why the emptying of Nancy was the right decision and then we had a fairly spirited discussion about Martin O'Neill getting the job until the end of the season. It's fair to say t...
As you can imagine, there's little in the way of cheeriness in this week's episode. We reflect on the Livi game, the Fir Park Shambles, and it's fair to say no one is looking forward to Saturday. We are grateful to Davie Farrell for his voice notes, which accurately capture the mood of the other three lads. It's a tough listen but we are sure that it reflects how the (silent) majority are feeling about the club just now. We would like to thank you all for your support and kind words about the...
1Which is more than Johnny Kenny has managed to do in the last two games. It's a mixed bag this week. There's some discussion about the shambles at Tannadice with a bit of input from Davie Farrell, which you'll note was recorded just after the final whistle. We then move on to Sunday's game against Aberdeen and we genuinely look for and actually find some positives we can take from the performance. None of us are convinced by the new manager, but at least, for the first time, we could see what...
We got some feedback after last week's episode that we had been overly harsh in our view of the new manager. It's fair to say that the events of the last seven days, unfortunately, have vindicated us to an extent. Incidentally, none of us takes any pleasure from that. As we watched events unfold on the pitch, we decided that some input from an ex-pro and coach would be worthwhile, so Davie Farrell joins us to pass judgment on Nancy's "game plans" and it's no spoiler to say he's ba...
We did say when we started the pod, we wouldn't try to be knee-jerk reactionaries. Well, that shitshow on Sunday, against the backdrop of the events of the last 10 months, has put paid to any idea of us being optimistic about what lies ahead. There's a very brief review of the Dundee game, followed by a dissection of Sunday's horror show. We genuinely want Nancy to be a success, but there was a lot to worry about, and we discussed our concerns at some length. We look forward to the Roma game,...
There's a fair amount of cheeriness this week. Three great away wins have improved the mood, prompting the host to seek forgiveness from our man in the west. We talk about that great victory in Rotterdam before moving on to Sunday's game in Edinburgh. All three lads were in attendance to see Celtic win comfortably at Easter Road although Jim and Paul (in particular) may have overindulged before and after the game. It wouldn't be the RGC Podcast if there wasn't some moaning a...
We never promised you a rose garden... A year ago today, we released the first RGC pod, and we promised an upbeat pod, free of moaning and bed wetting. That's worked out well hasn't it? This week's pod is a bit bloody miserable with a side of righteous anger. The combination of an uninspiring win on Saturday, which followed a shambles of an AGM and a collective meeting, means there isn't much positivity around. Just a reminder that we are just three fans giving our opinions on Celtic, and...
The title isn't a song by a Belle & Sebastian tribute band but a reference to the story behind this week's RGC. As it's international week we took the opportunity to record a pre-AGM podcast and the message is that if you are a shareholder make sure your voice is heard either by going to AGM, Proxying your vote or getting your vote registered. It all helps to send a message to the board even if the block votes will ensure the status quo (for now) It also appears that the new manager will ...
The giddiness from last week was a one-off thanks to an absolutely shambolic performance on Thursday. We don't spend much time on that for obvious reasons. The Killie game gets the usual "one half each" analysis before we move on to some new manager chat, and also raise some questions about our medical and sports science departments. Always remember that the board suggest we strive to be "world class" in everything we do. Guess what conclusion we reach about this aspect of the operation? We t...
It's fair to say it's a more upbeat podcast that in previous weeks. Sunday's game is obviously the main talking point, and we throw our weight behind the outrage at the refereeing performance in the Semi. We then move on briefly to the game on Thursday and have a bit of a chat about the names in the frame for the permanent manager at the moment. Quick chat about the Killie game and we acknowledge that the fixture is taking place on Remembrance Sunday in "traditional" RGC Podcast fashion. The ...
Thanks to Celtic and Desmond releasing statements half an hour after last night's episode went live it rendered the recording somewhat out of date. The only thing we could do in the circumstances was get the gang back together to discuss last night's events and our new (old) caretaker manager. Davie Farrell gives a bit of insight into the discussions around a "change in direction". between a club's board and its management team. We also have a chat about what we would like to see as a permane...
With Britain's biggest "Soor face c*nt" fan away in Italy this week we asked Davie Farrell to step in for this week's recording. Chris and Davie pick over the bones of the horror show at Tynecastle, and as you can imagine, there's not a lot of positives to be taken from the performance. That leads us on to a discussion about the manager and his future, for Chris, the "bawhair" that he was hanging on with last week has gone, and Davie is inclined to see what the next two games deliver, ...
What are we worried about? Quite a f*cking lot by the sounds of this episode. Paul is off on his travels, so Davie Farrell joins us this week to discuss Sunday's game and the squad in general. It's fair to say this isn't a cheery, upbeat listen. No one at the club, including the manager and the captain, escapes criticism. Thanks to Davie's insight, we are pretty confident that the criticism has some weight to it and isn't just "bin ra lorra 'em" (Although it does sound a bit like that) ...
Our man in the meeting, Paul, performs a podcast tour de force as he walks us through the minutes of Monday's meeting. It won't surprise anyone that the minutes weren't the whole story of the meeting, and Paul fills in some blanks. It has to be stressed that Paul is only speaking in a personal capacity, and how he managed to keep going and make it interesting is a miracle. Chris and Jim mainly repeat back what Paul has just said to give him a bit of a breather It's a long record, but th...
First of two pods this week. There's a brief discussion about the meeting between the Collective and Celtic that we'll cover in more depth once the minutes are available. There is some frustration that certain people weren't able to wait for the collective to release their view on the meeting. Anyway... We then had a nice change of pace when we discussed the Braga game, and then moved on to the Motherwell game on Sunday. Neither is a particularly upbeat discussion as you can imagine. There's ...
Change of host this week. Chris takes the "I was south of the border, so wasn't at the game" role. He was in Manchester, we think he might have been at a gig and unlike an un-umerellaed Jim as he walked into town after the game he was thinking Please Don't Stop The Rain (wee clue where he was on Saturday night there) Jim had Chris's seat and hooked up with Paul after the game, where they were reasonably positive about the team's performance, and that carried on into Monday's recording. We hav...
