Borderline pornographic Dec 29, 2020

Rangers make it 12 league wins in a row but did Hibs demonstrate the formula on how to beat Steven Gerrard’s side? They won’t need to show it to Rangers’ next opponents St Mirren – the only team to beat them this season.

Let’s just be friends Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

Celtic complete the quadruple treble on penalties in a classic Scottish Cup final with Hearts. Was Edouard out of order with his Panenka? And were we entertained by Scott Brown’s antics?

Rangers meanwhile go 16 points clear. Has Steven Gerrard learned to be more selfless in his dealings with the media?

It’s new manager Monday as Livingston appoint Martindale and Ross County call for Yogi. But only after Kettlewell announces his own sacking.

Plus JJ’s betting on Hedges, Pie & Bovril’s St Mirren identity crisis and Euan Booth Robertson gives us all the latest from the Championship.

Tame six male lions at once Dec 08, 2020

Show notes

Neil Lennon is backed once again by Celtic, seemingly till 2021, despite them falling 13 points behind Rangers. Is the title already gone and is Lennon damaging his legacy at the club?

It’s been another week of Covid controversy with Motherwell awarded 6 points and Dundee United causing a fuss with their team photo.

Should David Martindale be given the job at Livingston? Maybe he’s the new Sir Alex Ferguson?

Getting that spoon out and stirring it Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

Rangers go 11 points clear at the top of the table with a 4-0 win over Aberdeen, as Celtic slip up at Hibs. Can Rangers be caught? And can Neil Lennon survive?

Waiting to be shot Nov 13, 2020

Show notes

On an incredible night in Belgrade, Scotland beat Serbia on penalties to qualify for Euro 2020, recovering from the concession of a last-minute equalizer.

Oldfirmfacts joins us to look at this new brand of Scottish heroes. Ryan Christie, Declan Gallagher and Lyndon Dykes, the most popular Aussie in Scotland since Karl Kennedy.

What does this mean for Steve Clarke in his coaching career? His former room-mate Pat Nevin tells us about the man behind the dour exterior.
