Join us as we remember his incredible career. From his arrival at the start of the millennium to becoming a beloved figure at the club, Giorgi Nemsadze was a player of immense quality. We reflect on his time in Scotland, his majestic skill on the ball, and why he was rightfully inducted into the Dundee Hall of Fame. It is a sad loss for everyone who watched him strut his stuff in the middle of the park. Beyond the stats, Barry and Peter share personal memories of his character and the joy he brought to the pitch. We discuss his impact on Scottish football and look back at the special connection he had with the fans and his teammates, including Barry. It is a celebration of a player who truly had time for everyone. "Everything went through Georgie." Barry Smith, Giorgi Nemsadze's Dundee teammate and captain, joins Peter Martin to remember the Dundee legend, who has died aged 54. "A top, top bloke" who had time for everyone, the two dressing rooms under the Bonettis, swearing in Georgian, playing alongside Caniggia, Juan Sara, Fabián Caballero and Zurab, the chip in the derby, the Hall of Fame, and the home brew he brought in an Irn-Bru bottle.

Peter Martin remembers the Dundee number 10 who was "absolutely majestic": a Georgian international who joined the Dark Blues at the start of the millennium alongside Claudio Caniggia, Zurab Khizanishvili, Fabián Caballero, Juan Sara and Barry Smith, was "an absolute delight" to watch, and was voted into the Dundee Hall of Fame. Plus Peter's own memory of a night out in Georgia with Alan Rough, Georgi and his friends: "a genius and a legend". Transcript: Somewhere in Dundee, whether it's a housing scheme or in a block of flats, there's probably a wee boy with a framed number 10 shirt of Giorgi Nemsadze on his wall, probably given to him by his dad and he's wondering how good he was as a player. Well, let me tell you, having watched him, having commentated on Giorgi Nemsadze and the Dark Blues of Dundee, at a time at the start of the millennium where Dundee were signing players that some would look at and wonder how they managed to do it. Claudio Caniggia, Zurab Khizanishvili, Fabián Caballero, Juan Sara, playing alongside Barry Smith. And the number 10 was absolutely majestic. A Georgian with 69 caps, but when he got the ball, not only could he dribble, he could score goals, wonderful goals at that. And he was an absolute delight and no surprise voted into the Dundee Hall of Fame. So to hear that Giorgi Nemsadze has passed away at the young age of 54 is an absolute tragedy. I know a lot of people in the Dundee area will be shedding a tear and looking back with some great memories of him strutting his stuff in the middle of the park. He always looked as if he had so much time on the ball. Great skill and just a joy to watch at the time. I have my own special memory of Giorgi Nemsadze. Scotland were playing against Georgia in Georgia. Alan Rough, myself, and a number of journalists were invited to go for a night out with Georgie and his friends, and it was something we'll never forget.

"It's not. It's a Scotland problem." Hugh MacDonald on sectarian chants in Scottish football: not just a Celtic and Rangers problem, something "you'll hear sectarian stuff at grounds throughout Scotland", why Celtic players name Tynecastle, and why the only way to deal with it is to police it, which would mean arresting people "in their tens and their twenties". From The Journos, Wednesday 21 October 2026. Transcript: There's a feeling that this is a Celtic Rangers problem. It's not. It's a Scotland problem. You'll hear sectarian stuff at grounds throughout Scotland. Hearts, notoriously, and you've got to say it, have been at the vanguard of this for years. If you talk to Celtic players in particular, they'll say to you, if they're talking about the worst grounds to go to, they'll say Tynecastle, because they're right on top of you and you can actually hear everything. So it's been a long-standing problem in Scottish society, I would say, and it's illustrated on football grounds. And the only way to deal with it is to police it. And the only way to deal with it is to start arresting people for it. And there becomes a problem, you know, because you're going to have to get policemen to wade into crowds and arrest, in their tens and their twenties, people, because it's been going on that long.

From The Football Show LIVE, Monday 19 October 2026. Transcript: ...they'll play it into a difficult area so they can get those little triangles and the angles and away they go. But listen, take nothing away from Steven Pressley and Dundee, because you've got to be really positive about them, Roughy. Yeah. I don't think at the beginning of the season anybody would have thought they'd be sitting fourth in the league. They think they'd be a bottom-six team. They've had three cruciates as well. Yeah. And whoever's identified the players that are there just now look as good as the players that he got on loan last year, and obviously they've moved on a bit and trying to tie most of them down and yeah they've got a fair gathering of really good quality players. I heard that... Just briefly, I heard Elvis's post-match. Yes, it was magnificent. And you know, he's... Yeah, absolutely. He says, "Yeah, I like to create a culture and things, and yeah, working with the boys." And he says, "The games, they get in the way, because I love this kind of connection I have with my team." And you can see it. Well, you can see that connection, but the unfortunate thing about it from our perspective, Tam, because we are far more shallow when it comes to it, is he delivers what can only be described as, you know, this fantastic speech full of authority with one of the silliest hats ever, as if he's on Rainbow with Geoffrey.

Dundee 2-2 Rangers: was it two points dropped for Derek McInnes? Dundee "excellent" in the first half, "the man for man, the press, very aggressive", Rangers better after the break, and the two goals they gave away: the flick back to the goalkeeper, and Dundee's equaliser after Fernandez played into Dan Neil ("slapstick"). From The Football Show LIVE, Monday 19 October 2026. Transcript: ...that my week was going, you'd be amazed I'm able to smile. Roughy, we're going to talk about a game that we... I should have gone to the game with you, but I think I'd circumstances beyond my control, but I'm going to talk about Dundee against Rangers because is that two points dropped, in the mind of you and Derek McInnes on the evidence of what you were watching? Yeah. Well, again, that was a game of two halves, and I think it's been quite like that for Rangers pretty much through the course of the season. I thought the first half, I thought Dundee were excellent: the man for man, the press, very aggressive, and when they scored I thought, fair play, I felt as if they deserved that, Peter, over the balance of play and the way the game had panned out. And then in the second half, I think you saw what Derek was looking to get in the first half but didn't quite get. I don't know if that's because they'd come off the press a little bit in terms of physicality. Minsu get into the game, Gassama. And I just felt as if there was more combinations and they carried a bigger bigger threat. However, the two goals that Rangers give away are amateur. They're amateur. You can't go outside, try and flick a ball back to your goalkeeper with the outside of your right foot, from Dujon. You expect better. And then obviously the goal, totally against the run of play, to equalise was slapstick. I know, obviously, I think people have analysed this goal to death, where Fernandez has the ball. He passes up a forward pass.

Gordon Parks recalls a Scottish Cup win over Celtic where the week was spent identifying Celtic's weaknesses and not letting them play. Transcript: Here's a question then. Have you played with a manager who said, "Listen, by the way, man for man, we're coming up against a team who will absolutely batter us. We're going into the ring. We need to play to our strengths to negate their strengths so that we can pull off what is called, and I know you're young and you might not remember this, but Roughie remembers it. So do I. This is a rope-a-dope. This is 1974 when you're walking into the ring in Kinshasa and Zaire and George Foreman has got a record of battering the living daylights out of everybody and Muhammad Ali looks and goes, "Well, I'm not going to play him at his tactics. I'm going to work out a way to dupe him and then I'm going to floor him." I think that's a thing with football now. I think everyone wants to play the same way. Like you were saying, everyone wants to take the ball down at the back and but like sometimes you have to play to your strengths and I don't know if everyone always does that. I was in the Clyde dressing room the season that beat Celtic in the Scottish Cup, Roy Keane and all, and the whole week was strategy to go and identify Celtic's weaknesses don't let them play and we had a system and it worked an absolute treat and anybody that was in that team will tell you the same thing these things you can overcome a lot by good tactical plays and carrying it out executing it perfectly you'll have been in wrestling that's done the same and pulled all shocks in fact I know you have so again there's a lot of merit and good management and giving teams belief that they can overcome the odds. I didn't think Celtic would go against Benfica and get hammered and get dismantled as quickly. T-shirts, canvas and prints.

Peter Martin on Celtic's board: £77 million in the bank before the season, an AGM three weeks away, recruitment that's "absolutely woeful", and "a terrible and a sorry state" for Scottish football. Then Hearts 1-1 Nordsjaelland at Tynecastle, where Hearts scored first and "were wasteful in their passing". Transcript: I mean, let's not start making excuses in Scottish football or for Celtic. Before this season kicked off, Roughie, they had 77 million in the bank. They're three weeks away from an AGM where they're going to try and duck and dive. They're going to try and pull what I call a Donald Trump out of this. They're going to work out how they can avoid facing up to the problems that they've created themselves. That's what they're about to do, you know, and I'm surprised actually. You know what? I'm surprised. I'm surprised they haven't actually taken down one of the stands and built a ballroom for the board, you know? I mean, that is exactly... Honestly, I'm surprised they've not put gold lily frames around all the hall of fame with all the board members on it because this is exactly what's happening at Celtic. They can attract good players, but the recruitment's absolutely woeful. They've decided on a calibre of player that they want to promote and it's not good enough. And the Celtic fans are not fooled by it. Now, if they were battered last night, there's a comment that come on here which basically is the Scottish football's in a terrible and a sorry state and I think that nails it because I was at Tynecastle last night, Roughie Hearts scored the first goal and I thought... I was so impressed with Hearts against St Mirren. They scored the first goal and then they just I mean this side were mediocre. They weren't anything great, Nordsjaelland. And then slowly but surely, they started to create chances. And I thought to myself, you know, Hearts are going to blow this. They're going to blow... instead of bui https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZJ78TOCxY5s 109 2026-10-19T14:02:28+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/its-the-boards-fault-peter-martin-on-celtics-defence-the-scandinavian-chris-sutton-ZUp4jvIFwhY 2026-10-22T16:10:09+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ZUp4jvIFwhY/maxresdefault.jpg "It's the board's fault" Peter Martin on Celtic's defence + "the Scandinavian Chris Sutton" "It's the board's fault." Peter Martin defends Colby Donovan and Liam Scales and says Celtic's board failed to sign a right back or a centre half, then goes through the rest: Cameron Carter-Vickers "towing a caravan", Auston Trusty, Kieran Tierney, a midfield "totally and utterly decimated", Kasper Høgh as "the Scandinavian Chris Sutton", and a goalkeeper who's "not a Craig Gordon". From The Football Show LIVE, 16 October 2026. Transcript: Look at the way they're playing, Roughy. Look at the players that they've got now at this level. No harm. And I know you've absolutely slaughtered them, right? But I'm going to defend the boy. Colby Donovan and Liam Scales are players. Colby Donovan can get better. Liam Scales... But they're not the level that the Celtic fans are expecting to play in European football. So that's not their fault. It's the board's fault for quite simply saying, "We're not going to buy a right back. We're not even going to buy a centre half." We've got a guy who's injury-prone who looks as if he was towing a caravan early on against Ferencvaros and Cameron Carter-Vickers. So he's never fit. So suddenly you're relying on him. You don't need a you don't need a centre half. You've got Auston Trusty coming in who quite happily many a European team will say we'll leave him on the ball. We'll get that back shortly. And then you've got Kieran Tierney who I think Tierney's still a good player but just can't finish 90 minutes most of the time. So there's your back four and then your middle has been totally and utterly decimated. Now you know you've looked at the quality players that they had who could actually get involved in a high press. That's gone now. Nygren lets players run off him. He scores goals but he's still suspect in the middle of the park. Mika Baur is a young guy who clearly is joining a team that's now bereft of the quality that he craves. Tounekti. I mean, honestly, I don't know if that boy realises everybody else is playing in hoo https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZUp4jvIFwhY 131 2026-10-19T13:31:05+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/the-fans-have-gone-against-him-theyve-had-enough-gordon-parks-on-martin-oneill-celticfc-spfl-9b6YeJjNVIE 2026-10-22T16:10:09+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9b6YeJjNVIE/maxresdefault.jpg "The fans have gone against him. They've had enough" Gordon Parks on Martin O'Neill #celticfc #spfl Do most Celtic fans want Martin O'Neill gone? Gordon Parks: "If you ask Celtic fans, the majority want Martin gone." "They've had enough", and the same goes for Aberdeen fans and Stephen Robinson. Peter puts it to a poll, and one of the panel would rather it was Martin's own decision. From The Football Show LIVE, 16 October 2026. Transcript: What I'd say to counter that is, if you ask Celtic fans, the majority want Martin gone. So the fans have gone against him. They've had enough. No, I don't believe... Also if you ask the Aberdeen fans, they've had enough of Stephen. Right or wrongly, they've had enough. So you've already got two managers who think it's loaded against them. Can I ask you something? You think, and I'm going to put this out as a poll, obviously you think the majority of Celtic fans want Martin gone. God love him, but it was the wrong decision to stay. That's what they're thinking. They're now seeing the evidence in front of their eyes. They're so demoralised. There's so much chaos and dissatisfaction off the pitch. Do they want Martin as the future? I'd rather... I think the majority would think: go now. I'll wait until the next four or five... Can I tell you something? That's not on. You know what you look like there? You look like you've done for the last 15 years when somebody absolutely rattles a ball from left field right out into the crowd. He's just absolutely giving you the opinion and you've... Ballooned it there, haven't you? Oh, he's ballooned it, right. Welcome to the majors. This is what it's about. You ain't got an opinion. I don't know why you're... Probably a sympathy vote. You know, I think he's done particularly well and he's earned, you know... And if it was to come to that, I would like it to be Martin's decision.

Stephen Robinson after Aberdeen 3-1 St Mirren at Pittodrie: a cracking start, Brad off at half-time with his knee, a first half where Aberdeen "sat back and didn't press properly", and a second half that changed "the mindset of stepping forward and pressing". He also says the crowd made their feelings known at half-time, "rightly so". Saturday 17 October 2026. Transcript: Yeah, we started brilliant. I mean, a cracking goal from Brad. Unfortunately, had to come off at half-time with... he got another reaction in his knee. And then we just sat back and we sat back and didn't press properly and didn't play the way we wanted to play. But, we got a massive reaction at half-time. You know, we changed it a little bit, but all we changed was the mindset of stepping forward and pressing and credit to the players 'cause that's difficult when the crowd are making our feelings known at half-time, rightly so. And they rose above that and responded to that and then you get people behind you because you're on the front foot. So I thought it could have been more, should have been more and it's amazing the confidence starts flowing when you score the second goal.

He suggests that not only is it incredibly popular with football fans at games, that he's allegedly heard that players take the drug recreationally. Transcript: The big problem we know with football and misbehaviour, but we don't know, but we heavily suspect, is not alcohol, it's cocaine. That's the big thing, the prevalence of cocaine at matches now, you know. And I go... I'm very... if I'm at an elite match, you know, a big match, whether it be a Rangers match, a Celtic match, a United match, I'm not in... I don't go to a press area. Pay my money and I go and watch. And the prevalence of cocaine is... Is that a Scottish football fan thing? Because you... I think it's certainly widespread in England as well. I mean, I go down to England and watch games, as you know. Why is that catchphrase, or that line that you've just delivered there, not prominent in media circles at the moment? I think people shy away from saying drugs, you know, cocaine. I think, because I think most people, privately, I don't know if you agree, but I think most people privately would accept that there's a cocaine problem at football.

Will Celtic drop Cameron Carter-Vickers for Benfica? "What was the injury to his mouth?" After his comments on Martin O'Neill's "random tactics" following the Old Firm defeat, the panel ask whether he was rested or left out, whether Celtic can go to Benfica with Dane Murray, Liam Scales, Kieran Tierney and Colby Donovan, and why "they're going to get ripped" if they play that back four. Plus 20 years without ambition in Europe. From The Football Show LIVE, 12 October 2026. Tam and Peter debate Celtic's defensive options ahead of Benfica, including whether Cameron Carter-Vickers was rested after his post-Old Firm comments angered the manager, and discuss Celtic fans' anger over 20 years without real European ambition. Transcript: Just one little footnote before we talk about Rangers, Tam: it's Benfica next, and this is where the problems lie, because quite simply, you know, Martin... and I'm going to touch on it with Alex. Martin mentioned that there's a real advantage for Rangers because they're not playing European football. But the big problem for Celtic fans, who have released these statements in this constant civil war that's going on at the moment, is quite simply the Celtic fans are miffed because they know they can compete domestically. They're miffed because it's a complete lack of ambition in Europe for 20 years. 20 years of it, and they're sick of it. So this is Benfica coming up, and it's going to be another step up again. I'll tell you, if they play with that back four, they're going to get ripped. Yeah, I don't know if Cameron Carter-Vickers or Scales were kind of rested for Thursday night, because they cannot go with that back two, surely. Do you think they were rested, Tam? I don't know. I think yesterday was such an important one. I don't know, but... You mentioned Cameron Carter-Vickers, you know, maybe had an injury, but, you kn https://www.youtube.com/embed/dXYtEeJLJpA 167 2026-10-14T19:12:35+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/the-big-problem-is-cocaine-the-dark-side-of-scottish-football-the-journos-jioJEebfIQg 2026-10-16T11:50:13+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jioJEebfIQg/maxresdefault.jpg 'The big problem is cocaine' – The dark side of Scottish football | The Journos "Benfica will inflict real pain on them."

Celtic: damage limitation in Lisbon, or a chance to "kickstart something"? Colby Donovan, Dane Murray, Liam Scales and Kieran Tierney as a back four "in real trouble", a lightweight midfield, why "it's not the manager. It's upstairs", and Cameron Carter-Vickers: "is he injured or censored?"

Jamestown Analytics, Derek McInnes, nine games in a month, and whether there'll even be a Premiership in its current form in 10 years, with Real Madrid and Barcelona back in the European Club Association and the Premier League a closed shop. Rangers: "a clear freeway towards the title", or "not a great side"? Rangers 3-1 Kilmarnock: three up, then a second half that fell through the floor, and Steven Pressley's Dundee next. Then Hugh's warning: "The big problem we know with football and misbehaviour, well, we don't know, but we heavily suspect, is not alcohol, it's cocaine." Plus facial recognition at grounds, civil liberties, stewarding on minimum wage, and why "you're accountable for that seat". Hugh MacDonald has highlighted cocaine use as a bigger problem than alcohol at football matches in Scotland and the UK. Do you agree? Is the proposal for facial recognition to combat fan misbehaviour a step too far by the police and an encroachment on our civil liberties?

It's the same as we were getting pelters for the Neil Lennon scenario last season. I just felt they've left Martin exposed. I just think they've left him wide open to paper over the cracks of their complete ineptitude and their pig-headedness that they'll do it their way, and everybody shut up and keep buying the strips.

See, when you look at Calvin Miller and McPake, they're doing well, it's early, and you think to yourself, do you think Celtic and Rangers are looking at them and going, you could have got them for nothing? No, no, no, I think Derek would have... If it wasn't going to Rangers, and they hadn't already signed McPake on a pre-contract, I think he might have come back to Rangers. Derek, Derek McInnes, yes. Celtic, no. They just took an opportunity to get Miller, didn't they? Celtic had it in January. Yeah, but Celtic had the opportunity to go and get Will Ferry, and the opportunity to get Calvin Miller and all these people. But whoever is in there picking players, they should also be one of these guys that they say, we've got the list here. The board, you know, you're out, you're out with them. You go as well. You go, all of you guys, just follow Dermot right out that door, because you guys don't know what you're doing these guys for the recruitment process should all be given the bullet.

The panel on the kill zone between the posts, from six to 12 yards: Samaras and Pršo getting drawn into the channels, John Robertson's advice at Hearts, Kris Boyd, Haaland's goal for Man City, and how Kyogo, Dembélé and Edouard scored for Celtic. From The Football Show LIVE, 12 October 2026. Transcript: Tam, you offer it because you're a striker, I like the fact that you offer it now because you're looking at from a coach's perspective, the amount of technical people, and you know in the early days, Tam, you're aware we had Austin MacPhee in, we've spoken to the boy Alan Russell, remember him, we've spoken to, so I've spoken to a lot of people who are dealing with the data, and dealing with the heat map, and you've pointed it out again there, just the kill zone. Yeah, absolutely, you've pointed it out from a coaching perspective, which is quite simply, you know by the way, get in the box. People used to get upset at Samaras at times, maybe even a little bit with Dado Pršo, sometimes they would get drawn out to the channels, whereas the heat map is six yards, 12 yards, in that area there, John Robertson used to say to me at Hearts, he said, you know, I never went outside the box, he said all I did was wait for the, I was waiting on the goalkeeper bouncing off him, I was there, I was waiting on somebody making a mistake or the ball dropping and somebody tries to clear it and drops me the penalty box, bang, it's a goal, Kris Boyd used to do that to great effect as well. Well listen, I watched the Man City game yesterday, and Haaland actually pounced on something that was not even there, so that's there and the fact is that he's in the middle, I watched Crystal Palace as well, I watched that game, guys are scoring for the middle of the goal, and I call it the kill zone, Peter, see if you're in between the sticks and you're kind of covering first post, second post, cut back, if you're covering all them and yo https://www.youtube.com/embed/89q-RDfe6c4 127 2026-10-13T21:31:00+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/they-were-good-hearts-at-tynecastle-just-follow-dermot-right-out-that-door-celtic-m_MJUs8g8gI 2026-10-22T16:10:12+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m_MJUs8g8gI/maxresdefault.jpg "They were good" Hearts at Tynecastle + "Just follow Dermot right out that door" Celtic Hearts vs Celtic preview: "They were good."

He also shares a story of Ferguson calling him 'stupid' after he asked about Robbie Keane's move to Celtic. "He was not having it." Peter Martin asked Roy Keane, in a one-to-one, whether there's any way back with Sir Alex Ferguson. Tam McManus says it's like asking Keane to reconcile with Mick McCarthy after the World Cup, and Gordon Parks remembers asking Sir Alex about Robbie Keane signing for Celtic: "I'm no answering that, stupid." From The Football Show, Friday 9 October 2026. Transcript: Just before we go, listen, we'd love to see... I'd love to see it personally, Sir Alex Ferguson reconcile with Roy Keane. I know that probably on that podcast, The Overlap, they'll be absolutely thinking about paying him a king's ransom to go on it. Keane will be saying, no, I'm not going to be on it. Having interviewed, in a one-to-one, Roy Keane in the last two years, I sat down with him... The Beatson thing? For the Beatson. And basically I put it to him. He was good. He would take any question. He was great. And I said to him, you know, listen, is there any way back? And he wasn't having it. He was not having it. You know, no matter how many different angles I came at it from, he was not having it. Yeah, I think he'd be like that. It's like saying to him, would you reconcile with Mick McCarthy after the World Cup? I think once... I think Roy Keane's in that mindset: nah, I'm done with you. I would like to see that, because I think, you know, there's always a way back. Gordon? I remember interviewing Alex Ferguson. I had to go to a university to meet him, and I had to wait two hours to get... Robbie Keane had just signed for Celtic that morning. And I remember his PA... At Stirling University?

They cite a report putting Scottish football's share of Sky's total coverage at just 3.8%, while crediting Neil Doncaster and the SPFL board for still pushing broadcast revenue upward. "Does that sound fair to you?" Gordon Parks on a report that Scottish football gets 3.8% of all the coverage Sky produces. Peter Martin explains how the Setanta collapse sent the SPFL back to Sky "cap in hand", why Scotland can't get the kind of country-only TV deal Scandinavian leagues have, and why he thinks Neil Doncaster and the SPFL board "have really battled away". From The Football Show, Friday 9 October 2026. Transcript: I do know. I don't know. I do know. I can tell you quite simply, because basically what happened was Setanta came on the scene. They played them off against each other. The SPFL decided to go with Setanta after being under the umbrella of security of Sky, and then when they folded, they had to go back cap in hand to Sky, and they had to accept a lesser deal, and it basically saved the league. And then from there it's been a long, slow process. And the other thing which Scandinavian clubs have over us is we do not have a situation that they have, which is a unique country deal. We have a situation where we are in the United Kingdom, witnessing huge, vast amounts of money being spent, whether it be taxpayers' money from the BBC or indeed the money from Sky and any other broadcaster, towards the English Premier League. So we're always going to be the paupers in any deal. We do not have the strength to suggest that our league can command huge amounts of money in a broadcast deal. We do not have broadcasters who are willing to pay vast amounts of money for it. So that's really the Catch-22.

They discuss fans boycotting games, Callum McGregor fielding questions on tactics, and whispers that Shaun Maloney, not manager Martin O'Neill, is picking the team and dictating signings. "Like some kind of diplomat explaining the policy of his country." On The Football Show, Peter Martin compares Celtic now with Ally McCoist's Rangers: Martin O'Neill and Callum McGregor answering questions about everything but the football (the Green Brigade staying away, "random tactics"), and the "wild Chinese whispers" that Shaun Maloney picks the team, which Peter calls "a snowball of misinformation". (Recorded before Sunday's 2-0 win at Fir Park.) Transcript: Do you know what it reminds me of, Tam? It reminds me of when Rangers were at that point where Ally McCoist was the manager, and they were just defusing bombs right, left and centre. And I can remember saying to Ally McCoist, I don't think I've ever been at a press conference where you've actually talked about the game. And he said he felt as if he was literally like some kind of diplomat explaining the policy of his country, and it was very, very difficult. You know, obviously you can have your own opinion on the whole Rangers debacle, but when you're a manager, you're trying to focus. Like today, you know, Callum McGregor's there speaking. Martin O'Neill, as Gordon has alluded to, is having to talk about things other than the football, and other than the fact that Celtic are actually going to be playing in a game against Motherwell at Fir Park, which brings its own problems. But quite simply, you've got the civil war, you've got now fans who are not going to go to games, you've got Callum McGregor trying to explain to a reporter what random tactics were all about and why people said that.

Parks argues Martin O'Neill took on his role at Celtic as much for economic reasons as for the good of the club, while also warning that Celtic supporters' grievances are not being properly addressed. Transcript: I agree with you. I felt quite sad, actually, that he took on the reins of this, because you saw the weather coming down the street and you thought, hold on a minute, this is not going to get better. I think he's perfect for the club, to have somebody of that stature to be a buffer and to try and diffuse a lot of things and to speak well at press conferences and to understand the climate, and that's what his job is, to do that. I also think he's there because of the contract. I think it's economically beneficial for him to be there. And again, people don't want to say that because it's Martin O'Neill, but that's the reality of it. And I think he's factored that into his decision to stay on and try and breathe life into this season. It's coming apart. Supporters need, first and foremost, to be able to be heard, the grievances, to feel as though there's somebody addressing the problems that they've got, the issues. That doesn't exist at Celtic.

Hearts manager Wouter Vrancken says "it's never good enough" after Hearts beat St Mirren 5-0 at Tynecastle in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday 10 October 2026. He believes Hearts "can improve in a lot of things", says his players have bought into his methods "from the first session", and looks ahead to Thursday's UEFA Conference League opener against Danish side FC Nordsjælland. What did Wouter Vrancken say after Hearts 5-0 St Mirren? Vrancken says the win is "a fair reflection" of how Hearts have been working, but "it's never good enough". He is pleased his players were "comfortable on the ball" and good out of possession, and hopes the result "gives more confidence in this run of games". Is Vrancken happy with how Hearts are playing? He says the players "liked what we're doing" from his first session and are "trying to do it and succeeding", but he wants them to keep improving "in every aspect of the game". After the 5-0 he says the dressing room isn't relying on it: the players are "eager to get back on the pitch" and "try harder". Who do Hearts play next in Europe? Hearts host FC Nordsjælland at Tynecastle on Thursday 15 October in the UEFA Conference League league phase. Vrancken calls Nordsjælland "a really good side, a lot of energy", competing for the Danish title against Midtjylland and Copenhagen, and says Hearts "will give our best there" and try to "make an extra step".

On The Football Show, the panel remember Celtic moving Jock Stein on in 1977-78, with Desmond White pictured shaking Billy McNeill's hand, and ask how it could happen to Martin O'Neill: "Martin's decided he's going to be an ambassador. Go upstairs. He's getting the full pay-off." Tam McManus: "I don't think Martin will get through the season." (Recorded before Sunday's 2-0 win at Fir Park.) Transcript: Just out of curiosity, and I'm trying to think of, and I'm sure there's a million and one of them, where actually the axe falls on somebody who has absolutely given their all to a club, and there's no sympathy, there's no understanding of the heritage and what they've given and the former glories. I give you Jock Stein in 1977-78, when eventually there's a picture, a cold picture, of Desmond White, I think it is, shaking the hand of Billy McNeill while Jock Stein's looking on, and Jock Stein's put out of the club and Billy McNeill's the new manager. There's no sentiment in football. No, there's none. And I don't know who is going to orchestrate it, because they are in the middle of a forest fire at the moment. I don't know who could actually turn around and say... I don't believe somebody will orchestrate that: "Martin, you've lost these four games." I think it'd be Martin's decision. I don't think the board would ever... I think the only way they would do it is say Martin's decided, when he hasn't. Martin's decided he's going to be an ambassador. Go upstairs. He's getting the full pay-off, and, you know, we want to thank him. And here comes... Tam, does he make the season? Does he get through the season? Is he the manager at the end of the season? It's a big call, Tam. What a question for you in your first day back. No, I don't think he will. I don't think Martin will get through the season. I think it's almost an inevitable certainty that he won't be. If I was a betting man, I am, I would say no.

Alfred Johansson after Motherwell 0-2 Celtic at Fir Park: only 34% possession for one of the league's top possession sides, why Willie started ahead of Ibrahim Said and Tawanda Maswanhise ("We believe that we picked the right starting XI today"), and one win in nine for a younger, rebuilt squad with 11 new players and players still adapting to Scottish football. Transcript of Alfred Johansson Post Match Interview: The stats going into this match, Motherwell are one of the top clubs for possession. That didn't materialise today. Are you worried about that? Is that a growing trend? Today we have 34%, I believe. Against Dundee we had 60%, so I don't see that comparison between games. Said and Maswanhise haven't been able to feature. Is there a particular reason why they haven't been able to convince you of a starting place? Today is just, I think, from the last couple of weeks, how we've been seeing it in training. We believe that we picked the right starting XI today. And that's why Willie played. He's been working really hard, looking much better in training in the last couple of weeks. So that's why. It's a competition for the spots, and we went with Willie. How concerned are you with the team's form in general? It's just one win in the last nine games. Yeah, I mean, obviously that's tough, right? I mean, it's tough. We knew this start to the season, we knew that it was going to be a tough period, because it's a big change when you have 11 players coming in, and at the same time you have many injuries in the players that actually were playing last year. So I think today we had four players from last season in the XI, so we knew that that was going to be difficult. We also are younger now than what we were last year, a couple of years younger on average in all the games that we played. And that inexperience, together with the fact that we also have players that then come from other parts of the world that https://www.youtube.com/embed/W8NJLzV8KKY 116 2026-10-11T14:33:41+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/he-just-needs-a-goal-martin-oneill-on-kasper-hogh-after-motherwell-0-2-celtic-rMICqZtu0M4 2026-10-21T22:00:47+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rMICqZtu0M4/maxresdefault.jpg "He just needs a goal" - Martin O'Neill on Kasper Høgh after Motherwell 0-2 Celtic 'We were excellent' Martin O'Neill post match press conference following Motherwell 0-1 Celtic.

O'Neill on refocusing on "the things that has made the team good" after three straight defeats, his worries about energy with so many players away on international duty, Camilo Durán's "great goal" to settle them, and all the chances they didn't take. Transcript: Martin, how good is it to be talking about the positives of your team's display in a win? We played really well today, created a lot of chances, and from start to finish I thought we were excellent. Do you think it's been that break where you've got that chance to impose what you want them to do on a regular basis? I know it's always easy to say that. I think that we just had to refocus on the things that has made the team good. I think that we fell short on that there in terms of closing players down, things that you see, that extra energy. And of course, with a lot of players away on international duty, I was a wee bit concerned about that energy, but overall I was delighted with the team. Do you have to work more for the players to try and work out how to get Kasper Høgh scoring goals, or is it just a case of maybe he needs to just wait and bide his time and it'll come good? Well, he slipped up at a time when it looked as if he was going to score, and I think it's one of those. I think he just needs a goal. I thought the rest of his game was really fine. He just needs a goal, and the striker is thriving. Do you feel you should have scored more today, Martin? That we should have? Oh, we had a lot of chances, and we could have done. A first goal is really important, a great goal by Camilo, and then it settled us down, which was good, although I thought up until then we had a lot of possession.

Peter Martin on a convincing win for Martin O'Neill's side: Camilo Durán's left-foot opener after nine minutes, Benjamin Nygren's second just before the hour, and a Motherwell side that beat Celtic 2-0 here last December now "a shadow of the side that Jens Berthel Askou had built", with four straight defeats.

He says St Mirren "just shoot ourselves in the foot", conceding two avoidable penalties and making individual errors for the other three goals, and calls Hearts "excellent". He reveals St Mirren lost Nico in the warm-up but refuses to make excuses. What did Craig McLeish say after Hearts 5-0 St Mirren? McLeish says his side lost "individual battles, individual duels" in the first half and weren't "alert" to loose balls. He wants St Mirren to get back to what brought them success at the start of the season, when they were "really difficult to play against" and "really aggressive". "You can't come to places like this and expect to just play football from the first minute. You have to earn that." He says nobody "threw the towel in" and that, ultimately, he has to rectify it. Will St Mirren change their style of play? No. McLeish says "I'm not going to be quick to go and rip everything up". St Mirren already went "bigger from goal kicks", longer and more direct against Hearts, and they approach games "differently every week". But "you also have to earn the right to play the way that we want to". Why did St Mirren struggle at Tynecastle? McLeish points to "a lack of belief and confidence" early on, with "a relatively young group, relatively inexperienced group": maybe seven or eight of the starting line-up hadn't played at Tynecastle before. He wonders whether losing Nico and the atmosphere "spooked us a little bit", but notes St Mirren have done well against Rangers and Celtic, and says "I'm not going to make excuses". Who scored for Hearts? Laurent Mendy, Calvin Miller with two penalties, Claudio Braga and Josh McPake.

Laurent Mendy opened the scoring with a left-foot shot into the roof of the net, Calvin Miller scored two penalties, one in either half, Claudio Braga rounded the goalkeeper for the fourth and Josh McPake picked his spot for the fifth. Hearts host FC Nordsjælland in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday. Who scored for Hearts against St Mirren? Laurent Mendy, Calvin Miller (two penalties), Claudio Braga and Josh McPake. PLZ's reporter at Tynecastle says "Hearts were rampant" and deserved everything they got. What else happened in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday? Rangers went top with a 3-1 win over Kilmarnock: Ryan Naderi scored twice and Kevin Kelsy got the other, with Nicky Cleșcenco scoring Kilmarnock's consolation. Ashley Hay scored a late winner as Dundee won 2-1 at Falkirk. Daniel Bennie's goal gave Dundee United a 1-0 win over Hibs, who had Jacob Devaney sent off. Who plays on Sunday? Motherwell host Celtic at Fir Park at 12 noon, and Aberdeen are at home to St Johnstone later in the afternoon. Rangers could be top for only 24 hours. Transcript: Hearts five, St Mirren nil and an emphatic victory here for the home side in front of an appreciative crowd and they really deserve all that they got St Mirren from this game because Hearts were rampant. Two penalties Calvin Miller converted one in either half but at the start it was Laurent Mendy who gave the home side the perfect start with a left foot shot into the roof of the net. Then of course Miller converted both penalties. And on the end of that, Claudio Braga rounded the goalkeeper to make it four before Josh McPake picked his spot to make it 5-0 to the Jambos. Good win for them here. Gives them three points and also sets them up nicely for that Europa Conference match against Nordsjælland on Thursday evening. Elsewhere, Rangers go top of the Scottish Premiership with a 3-1 win over Kilmarnock.

He believes Hearts "can improve in a lot of things", says his players have bought into his methods "from the first session", and looks ahead to Thursday's UEFA Conference League opener against Danish side FC Nordsjælland. What did Wouter Vrancken say after Hearts 5-0 St Mirren? Vrancken says the win is "a fair reflection" of how Hearts have been working, but "it's never good enough". He is pleased his players were "comfortable on the ball" and good out of possession, and hopes the result "gives more confidence in this run of games". Is Vrancken happy with how Hearts are playing? He says the players "liked what we're doing" from his first session and are "trying to do it and succeeding", but he wants them to keep improving "in every aspect of the game". After the 5-0 he says the dressing room isn't relying on it: the players are "eager to get back on the pitch" and "try harder". Who do Hearts play next in Europe? Hearts host FC Nordsjælland at Tynecastle on Thursday 15 October in the UEFA Conference League league phase. Vrancken calls Nordsjælland "a really good side, a lot of energy", competing for the Danish title against Midtjylland and Copenhagen, and says Hearts "will give our best there" and try to "make an extra step".

Plus Ross Desmond ("public enemy number two"), Shaun Maloney and Callum McGregor's "random tactics". Can Rangers go top of the league? Beat Kilmarnock at Ibrox and Rangers lead before Motherwell v Celtic (Sunday, 12 noon). Derek McInnes is manager of the month after six straight wins, two against Celtic, and Makhanya is player of the month.

Motherwell manager Alfred Johansson says the talk of a Celtic crisis has gone too far. Speaking before Motherwell v Celtic at Fir Park on Sunday, he points out that Celtic were top of the table and "looking like a million" a week or two before the international break, with everyone celebrating them. Motherwell compare league data across different metrics, and Johansson says Celtic are "smashing almost all of them" in the Scottish Premiership. Losing a couple of games doesn't change the quality and talent in their squad: "they're a good team". Transcript: Sometimes I don't understand these things in football as well, right? So they're top of the table. It was like one, two weeks before the national team break, they were looking like a million, and everyone was celebrating them, right? And if you check now stats from the league, which we do, we compare data in different metrics and so on, they are smashing almost all of them in the Premiership. So just because losing a couple of games... I think the amount of quality that they have in their squad, the amount of talent, they're a good team. Let's just stop there, and let's not be ridiculous.

Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Gordon Parks pick apart Scotland's 2-1 defeat to Slovenia at Hampden, starting with Sebastien Pocognoli's post-match verdict: "we weren't high enough". A press with no triggers, Ben Gannon-Doak pinned at wing-back, Stephen Welsh left exposed, Oli McBurnie starting ahead of Kieron Bowie, and a half-time switch to a 4-1-4-1 that never came. Gordon says Pocognoli "set them up to fail", Hugh says the default answer is always "we'll do what we're doing better", and Peter wonders what Gordon Strachan, Alex McLeish and Steve Clarke made of it at Andy Robertson's 100th cap. With Scotland now out of the race for second in the Nations League group, the panel ask whether Pocognoli should start with a four, and why "we can't defend".

He says O'Neill, as manager, must assert control over how the team plays or risk losing his job. "Listen, Shaun. Listen, Mark. Listen, Stephen. I'm picking the team." On The Journos, Peter Martin says Martin O'Neill has to take charge of how Celtic play and tell his coaches so, because "if he doesn't do that, he's going to get the bullet". The panel start from O'Neill's decision to stay at Celtic: "whatever Martin O'Neill is, he's not daft". Is he crunching the numbers, or does he genuinely believe? Either way, the first job is clarity of purpose. The team shows no discernible patterns or routines, and Cameron Carter-Vickers, Liam Scales and Callum McGregor have been saying the same. The panel see a crisis of culture, with coaches Shaun Maloney, Stephen McManus and Mark Fotheringham probably advocating one style, O'Neill another, and a team "completely unrecognisable from the Celtic style that was there before". Peter's verdict: the buck stops with the manager. He doesn't buy the fanzine and pub talk that Maloney is picking the team. O'Neill decides, and he has to set out his way from now to the end of the season. Transcript: And I think the soul-searching would have been a bit longer than that, because whatever Martin O'Neill is, he's not daft. He's one of the brightest people I've met in football, and there's a lot of bright people in football, and he's one of the sharpest intellectually I've ever met or talked to. So he knows what's at the centre of all this as well. But hang on, if he's that intelligent, is he crunching the numbers here, or is he looking beyond and believing genuinely? What is he doing? Only he can answer that. But one thing is for sure: the major thing that has to be sorted out https://www.youtube.com/embed/-a8tyiAaCIQ 158 2026-10-08T13:31:49+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/how-are-you-going-to-sack-the-board-youre-not-why-dermot-desmond-is-bulletproof-celticfc-GM9yCGSSM5A 2026-10-17T19:00:16+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GM9yCGSSM5A/maxresdefault.jpg "How are you going to sack the board? You're not..." Why Dermot Desmond is Bulletproof #celticfc "How are you going to sack the board? You're not." The Journos on why Dermot Desmond will leave Celtic only when he decides to. Who on Celtic's board is man enough to pick up the bat phone and tell Desmond not to do something? On the evidence of the club's Saturday-night statement, nobody. The tennis-ball protest at St Andrews was "isolated, stupid, shouldn't have happened", but the reaction turned it into a PR own goal. Peter Martin asks whether protest is sometimes people's last option, and the answer comes back: "Dermot Desmond will go from Celtic when Dermot Desmond wants to go from Celtic", and getting up his nose only makes him more entrenched. Transcript: Who's picking up the bat phone and saying to him, this is what you should do? Oh, it's Dermot, of course. No, but that's what I'm saying to you. Who's picking up the bat phone? Non-executive directors, or indeed chief executives? Is anybody man enough to pick it up and say, by the way, don't do this? Well, the Saturday night statement would answer your question there. Nobody. Exactly. There's just no argument about your question there. If you isolate it, it's a black-trackie-fest jaunt to Fife, right? Isolated, stupid, shouldn't have happened. Nobody should have to endure that playing golf. But the reaction, it implodes. It creates a big, massive... You're right. It's a PR own goal. In life, though, Gordon, and I don't want to expand it into what I would consider more serious situations, but in life sometimes the protest, whether it be against governments, whether it be against policies, whether it be against people who have been involved in scurrilous things: if you can't get to them, you use... and you've seen it in life down through the years, you've seen protests, you see it now on the streets of Paris and across France with regards to education. Sometimes people do things which are out of left field because it's their last option. Absolutely. Absolutely. But you've got to look at the strategy https://www.youtube.com/embed/GM9yCGSSM5A 167 2026-10-08T12:31:28+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/messis-pr-has-been-terrific-ronaldos-has-been-shocking-YbE5dVqzC8A 2026-10-08T12:30:11+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YbE5dVqzC8A/maxresdefault.jpg Messi's PR has been terrific, Ronaldo's has been SHOCKING "Messi's PR has been terrific." The Journos on Lionel Messi's farewell for Argentina and why Cristiano Ronaldo's send-off will never feel the same. Messi has "created a deity element within Argentinian football", while Ronaldo is all "robotic excellence": "He is about self. Messi was about others." Then a claim from someone who worked with Messi that their private personalities are the reverse of their public ones, memories of a polite, mischievous Ronaldo in the Old Trafford corridors under Sir Alex Ferguson, and the unanswered questions about Argentina's dressing room at the World Cup final. Transcript: Messi, you're right, has created a deity element within Argentinian football that you didn't think could be matched in a Diego Maradona sense. He's surpassing that, I think, which is astonishing. Last night was an absolute spectacle of a spiritual embodiment of a footballer connecting with an entire nation. Ronaldo's final swan song will be nowhere near that, because his relationship with football is different. There's a robotic excellence, a power and athleticism, a fine-tuning of the human body unsurpassed by any footballer, or many athletes, ever in the history of sport. His association with football is different. It lacks that spiritual quality that Messi embodies. He is about self. Messi was about others. And that selfishness that made him one of the top three greatest players ever to kick a ball will be represented in a different way. It'll be more clinical. It'll be more a celebration of self and selfishness. Yeah, I think you might be right, but I think there's a lot of untold stories about Ronaldo which I think deserve tremendous credit. Well, I think so as well. And I think one of the clever things about Messi, and the brilliant things about Messi, is... I was told by somebody who knew both of them very well, somebody who worked with Messi: Ronaldo in private is what you think Messi is like in private, and Messi in private is what you think Ronaldo i https://www.youtube.com/embed/YbE5dVqzC8A 176 2026-10-08T11:30:59+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/he-set-them-up-to-fail-scotland-manager-slammed-over-team-selection-and-refusal-to-adapt-EjZ2QjKtvmo 2026-10-13T21:06:08+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/EjZ2QjKtvmo/maxresdefault.jpg 'He Set Them Up to Fail': Scotland Manager SLAMMED Over Team Selection and Refusal to Adapt "He set them up to fail." Gordon Parks on Sebastien Pocognoli after Scotland's 2-1 defeat to Slovenia: an out-of-work manager, selection issues he takes issue with, and a post-match comment about not pressing high enough that "scares me". Hugh MacDonald says the default answer from managers is always "we'll do what we're doing better", the Mark Warburton way: plan A isn't working, so do plan A better. Transcript: Absolutely, because there were alarm bells going all night. All night. The reason I mentioned the salary, right, is because we've recruited an out-of-work manager. It's a fact. Scottish football's in danger of becoming the dumping ground for Jamestown-esque recruits, right? A blind man can see. If a team's springing runners into empty spaces and you can't identify that quickly and correct it, then that's a problem, because he's managing the team. They didn't know what they were doing. He set them up to fail, and there were so many selection issues that I would take issue with. I've got a massive problem with that. He then comes out with a lot of his gobbledygook, and the comment about not pressing high enough scares me. I'd like him to come out and explain what he means by that. But see, a lot of times in managers, you see it all over, you see it at every level. If you say to a manager or a coach, in the nicest way possible, as you did at the press conference last night, Peter, you were respectful... Yeah. ...if you say, this is not working, what are you going to do about it? Yes. See, the default answer, and I'm simplifying it, is: we'll do what we're doing better. Not that we'll change it. And this goes back, and you used to hear it most famously with Mark Warburton: plan A is not working, what's your plan B? You do plan A better.

Peter Martin, Alan Rough and Gordon Parks on Cristiano Ronaldo's falling-out with Portugal manager Jorge Jesus. Peter says Ronaldo should have asked to announce his retirement rather than wash the dirty linen in public, but he's no fan of Jesus either. The panel agree it's a sad end for a class act who dragged Portugal through games, Gordon says sometimes the greatest act has to be dragged off the stage, and Peter isn't having the pundits who say "he only scores goals". Filmed on 2 October, before Ronaldo and Jesus patched things up. Transcript: International football. I wish we'd had Ronaldo. I wish we'd had Ronaldo now, at 41. Where are we going with this? Because I hate to see this whole thing being played out, washing their dirty linen in public. Ronaldo has thrown the dummy out of the pram. He's not been happy with Jorge Jesus, the Portuguese manager, who wants to pick his own team, wants to decide when the subs are coming on, whatever. Ronaldo could have actually said, listen, Jorge, I understand where you are. If I'm not going to feature, even if I'm only going to do 10 or 15 minutes, that's not for me. Do you mind if I announce my retirement? I think that was the best way to handle it. 100%. And I think there's a sadness here, because what an absolute legacy, what a history, what a goalscoring ratio, what a player. To end on a sour note isn't becoming of a guy who was a class act, and it lacks a bit of class, to be honest. Yeah, it does. Roughy, I have to say to you, I'm a huge Ronaldo fan. I think his scoring for, never mind Portugal... the actual ability to get them to the final, albeit he came off, but to actually win a tournament and get to the latter stages of it, it's been down to him at times, because when he was younger he was literally dragging them through games, winning them games. This is a sad end to it. And by the way, although Ronaldo was wrong in the way he handled it, I'm not a fan of Jor https://www.youtube.com/embed/ARtrd44cl54 151 2026-10-08T09:30:49+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/who-would-the-fans-trust-celtic-need-a-mediator-not-a-dermot-puppet-_iB_kkEz9-g 2026-10-17T17:00:16+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_iB_kkEz9-g/maxresdefault.jpg "Who would the fans trust?" Celtic need a mediator, not "a Dermot puppet" "Who would the fans trust?" Peter Martin says Celtic need someone new to come in and build bridges between the board and the supporters, because "the Celtic fans have stopped listening to them". It opens with Alex Rae and Alan Rough on what abuse at the ground does to a manager and his family. Peter says abusing board members such as Michael Nicholson is "bang out of order", Alex asks who could do the job without being seen as "a Dermot puppet", and Peter says both sides need give and take: "you do not get anywhere by digging your heels in". Transcript: Again, you just touched on it briefly there. If you go to the game and your wife's there with your two kids... Oh, it's brutal, man. It's mental. You have to be a special individual. You started that at Thistle with me. I've been there. Get me out. Exactly. As you're sitting there and it's directed at you, there's nowhere to look. And that's why I think at the ground, and I've said this before and I said it the other day there, I don't think... I think it needs somebody to come in as almost some kind of mediator, somebody else, a new appointment to come in and start to try and build the bridges. I don't think the current board have got the capability. I think the Celtic fans have stopped listening to them. That said, I don't think it is in any way productive to start abusing board members, whether it be Michael Nicholson or anybody else on that board. I don't think abusing them, certainly not their family life or anything, is called for. I think it's bang out of order. But I do think there needs to be some kind of mediation, somebody that can come in and say... Who would it be, Peter? Would it have to be a former player? No, I don't think it's a former player. I don't think there's anyone... Who would the fans trust? Because if someone comes in tomorrow and says, Alan Rough's coming in as a mediator, automatically I think the fans would be going, it's a Dermot puppet. Do you know what I mean? So you have t https://www.youtube.com/embed/_iB_kkEz9-g 172 2026-10-08T08:01:25+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/is-ronaldo-the-goat-football-ronaldo-soccer-yLdoUfbmhIQ 2026-10-08T12:20:10+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yLdoUfbmhIQ/maxresdefault.jpg Ronaldo vs Maradona: Who's the GOAT? #football #ronaldo #soccer "Is Maradona getting pushed out?" Peter Martin, Alan Rough and Gordon Parks on whether Cristiano Ronaldo belongs in the top three of all time. Roughy says every Portugal player wants Ronaldo in the team. Peter says his stats put him in the top five, maybe the top three, and that his personality is misjudged given what he does away from the cameras. Then the big one: if it's Pele, Messi, Ronaldo, Maradona and Cruyff, who drops out? Transcript: ...was your thing, right? But the explosion of joy from scoring a goal is the pinnacle of football, surely. I would think if you asked any Portuguese international player, would they want Ronaldo in the team or not, they'd want him in the team. It gives you something. You can see when he scores a goal, okay, he's a bit singular, he does his thing, but you don't see any Portuguese players complaining when he scores a goal or wins a game for them. And that's what he does. Yeah, absolutely. Roughy, you're absolutely right. I think it's a sad end to his international career. He's still going to try and crack a thousand goals in domestic football, which I think he will do without a shadow of a doubt. But it's a sad end to his international career. And I think, for people who don't like him because he's a poser, or he's gobby, or he's a showman, that's not the issue. You have to look at his stats. When Ronaldo eventually steps off the stage completely and hangs up the boots, I think he's in the top five greatest ever footballers. I'd go as far as to say he's really pushing to be in the top three, because the stats are way off the chart. The fact that some people might not consider him that is basically because maybe they don't like his personality. But I think even that is misrepresented, because of the work he does in the background, for charity, for kids. An example to kids, an example to athletes, on how to conduct yourself and how to work at the top of your game to last longer.

Scotland: Pocognoli's post-match "we weren't high enough", a press that went missing, Ben Gannon-Doak pinned at wing-back, Stephen Welsh left exposed and Oli McBurnie starting ahead of Kieron Bowie.

We lost 2-1" - Alex Rae on Rangers in Hong Kong "You're playing against the accountants, the bankers. We lost 2-1." Alex Rae tells Peter Martin about a Rangers side's trip to a tournament in Hong Kong, where the first group game was supposed to be three points in the bag. After a few too many refreshments the boys lost to the amateurs, and manager John Brown came in and battered everybody in true Bomber fashion, until Ian Ferguson jumped up with a line nobody in the room has forgotten. Transcript: Peter, do you know, we went to Hong Kong one time, right? You leave on the Tuesday, and then the tournament starts about five o'clock on the Friday, and the first game in the group stage, there's three, and the first one's always guaranteed three points in the bag. You're playing against the accountants, the bankers. We lost 2-1, right, because the boys had had a few too many refreshments. And the one thing, and I often say this, you try and get a flavour for a particular group and their desire to win. Yeah. John Brown was the manager, and he's come in and he's battered everybody, in Bomber's fashion: veins, the lot, spitting. And Ian Ferguson jumped up and said, sit down, Bomber. And they're like this, and I mean this... And Bomber liked to talk out the side of his mouth. And then Ian Ferguson says, "You look like a stroke victim there." And it went from there.

Alex Rae asks how the protests against Celtic's board actually affect Dermot Desmond, a man who isn't at Celtic Park every week, and Peter Martin explains why the Celtic Fans Collective went to him at St Andrews. Peter says the rest of the board are left doing the day-to-day tasks while Desmond decides and dictates exactly what the club puts out, and he expects the unrest towards the board to carry on for the next four or five months. Transcript: Peter, when you talk about escalation, I think it's been fragmented for a little while now, where it's Nicholson and others have had a real... even Martin O'Neill starting to get a bit of grief as well. And I think there's a wee bit of a scattergun approach. However, when you talk about it escalating, how does it actually, and I don't mean this flippantly, how does it actually affect a guy who's not in situ every week? It's not as if he's sitting there, standing there going, you know. Whereas normally, if you go to a game where things are not quite going well, and you're in that stand on a weekly basis, your family's there and you get abuse, dog's abuse. So how does it really affect him? Well, this is probably why they've looked at getting him at the Alfred Dunhill Cup, because they know he'll be there. Yeah. It's the only chance you can get to post your disagreement with the way the club's being run. The rest of the board are, in many people's view, just basically doing the menial tasks on a day-to-day basis. Certainly, as far as the PR is concerned, there's no advice going towards Dermot Desmond. He'll decide, and then he's dictating exactly what they're putting out. So if anything, you've got a receptionist just typing it. That's what the PR department do right now. So I think the escalation continues, with unrest towards the board.

Roughy calls the protest embarrassing for the club as well as for Desmond, and says it depends how strong Desmond wants to be: he either sells his shares or tells the fans where to go, the way his son did at the AGM. Alex sees him doubling down. He says you don't get to Desmond's position without a bit of character, and points to the trophies won under his watch as major shareholder.

After the tennis-ball protest at St Andrews, Peter Martin, Alan Rough and Alex Rae ask what it would take to end the war between Celtic's board and its supporters. Does Celtic need a mediator, and who would the fans trust? Peter says the current board don't have the capability and that it needs give and take on both sides, while abusing board members such as Michael Nicholson and their families is "bang out of order", and so is the conduct of the small minority wrecking stands and storming exit gates. With "none of them going to back down", the panel see a chance for Rangers to hit the front if Celtic keep wobbling.

After Scotland lost 2-1 to Slovenia at Hampden, PLZ Soccer asked Sebastien Pocognoli whether Scotland can still finish second in their Nations League group. With two games left and Slovenia ahead in the race for second, Pocognoli says Scotland need six points from six and need Slovenia to drop points. He says "we have to improve everything": Scotland created plenty of chances in two of their four group games but fewer tonight, and defended with less quality. He believes there's enough quality in the squad, and says this camp was a chance to experiment with a lot of new young players. Transcript: Would you concede now that your position is that you're up against it, or not going to finish second? Would you concede that that's a difficult prospect for Scotland now, to finish second? Yeah, I say when we start the Nations League, we want to be ambitious and combine as strong as possible the new principle, and to be strong in terms of the ranking. Still two games to go. Slovenia is now leading this second place, and yeah, we need to do a six on six and hope that Slovenia lose some points, but we are not in the comfortable situation to fight for this. So we just have to look to ourselves for the next camp and try to get the maximum of the points. You're only in a short period of time, but where do you think your biggest problems lie as a manager, or problems to sort out? Is it the backline, or is it our inability to score goals? We have to improve everything. I said this yesterday. I would not say that everything is perfect, I would not say that everything was bad, but we need to improve many things. I think we create many chances in two of the four games. Today was less. We defend less with quality. So this game has to be, for me, a consideration about what we need really to improve. And yeah, there's many things, but for me, yes, it's a different principle, different approach of the game, and we struggle in two games, so https://www.youtube.com/embed/vpo-AMk9wDc 154 2026-10-06T23:27:06+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/what-is-wrong-with-scotland-football-scottishfootball-scotland-34JSwqNl_1Q 2026-10-13T21:06:08+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/34JSwqNl_1Q/maxresdefault.jpg What is wrong with Scotland? #football #scottishfootball #scotland Sebastian Pocognoli trying to put a positive spin on a dismal night for Scotland losing Slovenia. Scotland 1, Slovenia 2, and I've just come out of the press conference after listening to Sebastien Pocognoli, the Scotland manager, trying to put a positive spin on things. As far as the Nations League group is concerned. But Scotland now will struggle to finish second in this group. It really favours Slovenia now, with only North Macedonia here at Hampden and Switzerland away to come for the Scots. But over the 90 minutes, just not good enough. A shambles at the back. It all started so well for Scotland, with a little back flick from Ryan Christie into the back of the net from close range to give us the perfect start. Although there were alarm bells, because Scotland were exposed at the back on a couple of occasions, and but for a fabulous intervention from Andy Robertson, it could have been all so different, and all square at the break. In the second half, Scotland just, from the left and the right-hand side of the flanks, Robertson pushing forward and Ben Gannon-Doak, left huge gaps for the Slovenians to expose our weaknesses at the back, and they took full advantage of it. Matko getting the equaliser before Danijel Šturm scored the winner for Slovenia. Scotland huffed and puffed and really couldn't break down Slovenia, and our chances were few and far between. Worrying times here for Scotland. I thought they were poor at the back, lacked creativity, and then throwing on maybe Josh McPake and hoping maybe Findlay Curtis could open up the Slovenians was a forlorn hope in the end. Not an impressive night, a flat crowd and big problems for Sebastien Pocognoli to try and even get us to the European Championships through the Nations League process. Disappointing night, a lot of questions to be asked, and after listening to him, I'm not feeling very confident of the way ahead so far. Even with all the young players that we have there, we still have the problems: we ca https://www.youtube.com/embed/34JSwqNl_1Q 127 2026-10-06T22:23:41+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/embarrassing-celtic-fans-dermot-desmond-protest-covered-world-wide-nRiwfPOU6GQ 2026-10-17T06:50:12+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nRiwfPOU6GQ/maxresdefault.jpg "EMBARRASSING!"

Roughy says the protest was embarrassing for the club as much as for Desmond, and sees two ways it ends for him: he sells his shares or he digs in. Alex doesn't see Desmond walking away over tennis balls. Peter agrees, then asks why Celtic keep banning the fans, ex-players and journalists who criticise the board. They go through Celtic's statement calling the protest "a premeditated action", the Celtic Fans Collective's reply, and why Peter thinks "he can't keep banning everybody". Plus the next three games, starting with Benfica away on Thursday 15 October, why this is "the ultimate chance for Rangers" with Kilmarnock and Dundee next, and why Martin O'Neill hasn't walked: "you cannot sack a legend".

Charlie Mulgrew tells PLZ Soccer how Celtic's legends turned a 7-1 hammering by Rangers on Saturday night into a 5-4 win over them in the Tennent's Sixes final at the Braehead Arena on Sunday.

Could you have believed that after yesterday? Oh, well, that hurt last night, Peter. I mean, we left here, and I know it's not your job, obviously, you're retired, but your head still wants to win games. You still want to compete. I mean, we didn't compete anywhere near well enough. We knew we gave Rangers about four or five goals easy, so we didn't want to do that tonight. We wanted to get some payback. If we got to the final, we got to the final... So happy. That's good. What was the key to the victory? I think it was a wee night out last night. I think sometimes a wee bit of team bonding, a couple of beers. There was a bit of yawning before; actually, the girl in the tunnel started laughing at me. I yawned before the semi-final. I was needing it. Once I woke up, it was good. A wee bit of team bonding. We said a couple of home truths last night. If the game had been this morning, I'd have pulled out, but we managed. We were a bit stiff near the end, getting on to the final there, stopping and starting, but no, no, that was the key to the victory, a wee night out.

Tom Boyd's Celtic legends were hammered 7-1 by Rangers on Saturday night, then came back from two goals down twice to beat them 5-4 in the Tennent's Sixes final at the Braehead Arena on Sunday. Boyd tells PLZ Soccer about the few choice words after the 7-1, the character it took to turn it around, Aiden McGeady's ability and Jonny Hayes's engine ("only second to Tom Boyd's"), and why the Braehead surface and organisation impressed the players. Gary Hooper's hat-trick won the final after Celtic beat St Johnstone in the semi. Transcript: Tom Boyd, the manager of the Tennent's Sixes champions. How does that feel? Because I was getting so many texts from people saying, you know, it's time you resigned, and suddenly you've turned it around. Well, apparently I've still resigned, according to Mr George McCluskey. George, that one's on you. Because, yeah, last night we weren't celebrating. We didn't have smiles on our faces. The mistakes that we made were punished, and we made a lot of them, and obviously that's why it was a 7-1 defeat. There's not much you need to say to the players. They know. And that level of commitment and determination to come back twice from two goals down, added to the ability that some of the boys have got... yeah, really delighted that we had a bit of glory there. Yeah, a lot of the boys are paying credit to you for, obviously, the hurt of last night, and you just having a few choice words with them. I can't say what I said here, and I won't say what I said here, but they were left in no uncertain terms that last night's performance wasn't good enough. And I think they came back. The display today, we were getting better than yesterday, and we stopped concent... So we went on and learned from that and came back. Fantastic character from the boys to come back twice. Yeah. What about the quality of the team? Because y https://www.youtube.com/embed/B9G0qTgEOQA 177 2026-10-04T20:53:47+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/its-time-to-score-some-goals-the-football-show-C0VvANIHFHo 2026-10-04T23:30:09+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/C0VvANIHFHo/maxresdefault.jpg Tennents Sixes 2026 Special | The Football Show LIVE at Braehead Arena The Football Show goes on the road to the Braehead Arena ahead of the SPFL Tennent's Sixes (Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 October). Peter Martin, Alan Rough and Gordon Parks look ahead to Scotland's must-win in North Macedonia, react to Cristiano Ronaldo walking away from Portugal, and meet the people behind the return of the Sixes after 33 years. Should Lewis Ferguson be dropped for North Macedonia? "Shock horror", says the panel, but yes: Scotland need more creativity and Ferguson doesn't give enough of it. The panel want "three points, no excuses" against a side without a win in 10, with Ben Gannon-Doak and Josh McPake on the wings, Steven Welsh "all day long" for the suspended Jack Hendry, Billy Gilmour as the linchpin, John McGinn staying in the team and the keeper keeping his place. Predictions: 2-0, maybe 3-0, and a chance for Oli McBurnie and Kieran Bowie to put a marker down before Slovenia at Hampden. Why did Ronaldo quit Portugal? After his fallout with Portugal manager Jorge Jesus, Peter says Ronaldo "has thrown the dummy out of the pram", but nobody on the panel wants it to end this way. And to the pundits who say he only scores goals, Peter's answer: "We'd have a 41-year-old Ronaldo right now", because Scotland can't score. Plus Harry Kane and the dying art of the number nine, and the big debate: is Ronaldo top three of all time alongside Pele, Messi, Maradona and Cruyff? What is happening at the Tennent's Sixes at Braehead? Braehead Arena CEO Russell Smith explains how the ice is covered by a FIFA-standard pitch from Sportex and Greenfields in two hours, why 12 Scottish Premiership legends' sides will play a derby in every session, and why the sin bin, crowd cams and maybe even a kiss cam are coming to football.

The Journos on why Nathan Patterson should be one of Sebastien Pocognoli's changes for North Macedonia: an elevated fee from Rangers to Everton, hardly a regular game since, and now at Torino. Plus the Alan Hutton theory (athleticism down the wing makes you a multi-million pound full-back), why Seamus Coleman kept him out at Everton, and why Aaron Hickey is first choice "all day long and most of the night" when he's fit. Transcript: I think you'll see some surprise changes this weekend, because I know from speaking to people within the squad that that's what his intention is: to see people, try and get an eye on as many people as he can in the next few games. So I think you're going to see a completely different look. I think you'll make three or four changes. Patterson's one of them, Parksy, for me. Oh dear. I mean, honestly, I do not get the fixation with this boy, and I've got nothing against him, other than I'm looking at his first-team appearances, Hugh, over a long period of time, even with injuries. It's not good. It's an elevated price that they got him from Rangers to Everton. He never featured in the Everton plans at all. He's now at Torino. It doesn't do it for me. I think his distribution's poor, and I think, you know, he gets caught out defensively. Got a theory on that. Nathan Patterson is a beneficiary of the Alan Hutton trailblazing move to Spurs, where if you had athleticism and you galloped up and down the wing and you looked as if you'd occasionally get a touch and put a ball into the box, your value becomes multi-million. Nobody that he's signed for, no manager's been convinced, because he has not sustained a position in a team anywhere. We've only got to deal with what we're seeing. And I didn't see it at Rangers. He made lots of substitute appearances before they shipped him on. Fair play to Rangers for getting the money for him, but he didn't feature at Everton. He picked up an injury when it loo https://www.youtube.com/embed/d2qjbjgph9A 142 2026-10-02T12:01:59+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/shreading-as-we-speak-why-premier-league-clubs-are-terrified-of-man-citys-114-charges-football-BjOR4jtZjvs 2026-10-02T12:50:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BjOR4jtZjvs/maxresdefault.jpg "Shredding things as we speak" - why other Premier League clubs fear the Man City verdict #football "Knowing other clubs are sitting shredding things as we speak." The Journos on Manchester City being found guilty on 114 of the 115 Premier League charges: why the appeal will be dealt with this season, why the verdict was "an act of self-harm" the Premier League still had to make, financial doping and Boris Johnson waving through Newcastle's Saudi takeover, and why a 500 million pound fine is "loose change" to City. Transcript: Yeah, but the problem getting them out is do they does the does the if they Yeah, they can get them out with the 60. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I could think that's a viable alternative. It doesn't matter that they're going to appeal because quite simply right now the English Premier League which has been open to criticism and how they've allowed Manchester City to absolutely boot this down the park, you know, when everybody could see, you know, training ground suddenly with the biggest sponsorship deal you've ever seen in your life. You know basically they can appeal but the Premier League now with 114 out of the 115 charges have said you can appeal but this is going to be dealt with quickly this season this season is when this determination so I don't see Man City getting away with let's prolong this again. No. And the genie is out the bottle and the problem is you have got options multi-million pound legal bills to get to the stage we are now. Premier League have I mean it's an act of self harm to create to give this verdict but it was one that integrity demanded. Financial doping in English football has always fascinated me and I've always thought people just accept and cheer on the winning team. And at some point, just regardless of the reality behind it, well, that supporters are like that, Gordon. So, Boris Johnson waved through Newcastle's takeover. The Saudi money coming in and I realized that when he did that again, it's all about the buck, right?

Peter Martin on Henry Winter's claim that English football was always the backbone of integrity: Sam Allardyce, Don Revie walking out for Middle East money, and the brown envelopes and bungs of the old days. Then the Man City question: Peter says only relegation would satisfy people, Hugh MacDonald says they can't really be relegated without dragging the EFL in, and a hefty points deduction may be the only way. Transcript: Is and I listened to Henry Winter who I've got a lot of time for talking about the integrity of the sport and how it's been tarnished you know and how you know over the decades you know English football's always been the backbone of integrity and I'm thinking what a lot of absolute trollop there's no sporting integrity down through the years if you talk about managers if you talk about conduct if you talk about the skulduggery that's gone on give me peace I know there's this there's this hallowed thing of like Hovis advert you know, fans turning up to games with their bicycles and, you know, butchers and bakers owning teams and handing out, you know, players, you know, the Christmas turkey and we're all singing carols on the way home. I love Henry. It must have been a short memory. One of the England managers. I think you know we've spent longer in a night out than Sam Allardyce spent in the job and don't the great Don Revie and I think quite rightly he shot off to Saudi because he was getting more money and you know what I've got no complaints about that whatsoever particularly the way managers were paid in the old days. Yeah, but the back end of managers and the conduct of clubs, you give me peace. I know. And the amount of listen there was stationers all over England running out of brown envelopes at that time as well cuz it was filled with full of bungs. Yes. So, you know, as the old saying is give me peace. That said, if the precedent has been set, there'll be a lot of nervous chairmen around England at t https://www.youtube.com/embed/nPlU5gIvEzY 172 2026-10-02T09:01:36+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/heated-debate-is-lewis-ferguson-overhyped-scotland-football-rpweqyyfQv0 2026-10-13T21:06:08+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rpweqyyfQv0/maxresdefault.jpg Heated Debate: Is Lewis Ferguson OVERHYPED? #scotland #football "He's not a 20 million pound player." Is Lewis Ferguson overhyped? The Journos on Sebastien Pocognoli's Scotland before the must-win game against North Macedonia. Why Billy Gilmour, not Lewis Ferguson, is the real linchpin ("no Gilmour, no playing football in the middle of the park"), why Ben Gannon-Doak has to start, what John McGinn brings, and why Ferguson is "your classic rat-about midfielder: he breaks up play and he gives it to somebody who can play". With Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Gordon Parks. Transcript: Okay, I'll call it bluntly then. He has come out with this message to the Scotland fans of how he's going to approach managing the team. Yes, this is his third game. This is a game that you say we have to go and win. Yes. Okay. Put out a formation then that refreshes and puts the notion into the fans heads that he has got this approach and he's going to stick with it and he's got players they can put them into a shape and a system to deliver the message. Hold on a minute. You've given you've given us three variations there. All of them have to fall into place. The first thing is you've got to have the players. Yeah, that's the first thing. The second thing is your system that you want to play. You might have players, but you might be looking and saying to yourself, and I'm going to give you two perfect examples here. You might have two players in there that cause you a problem in the system. And one of them is got to get Ben Gannon-Doak in the team. And the second one which I think is the major one and certainly on the evidence of last night and you know in the last game as well Hugh is no Gilmour no playing football in the middle of the park. He is the linchpin of that team. He is because the other two midfielders who play alongside them are Premier League footballers, Serie A, but you know I mean they're big midfielders. McGinn's a great player and absolutely crucial to us right as a playmaker. Sticks his arse in and he and he can and he can https://www.youtube.com/embed/rpweqyyfQv0 156 2026-10-02T00:59:27+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/rangers-werent-relegated-man-citys-ps900m-scandal-and-the-ebt-parallel-rangersfc-mancity-4HVObpJdmgg 2026-10-14T21:10:13+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4HVObpJdmgg/maxresdefault.jpg "Rangers weren't relegated" - Man City's £900m scandal and the EBT parallel #rangersfc #mancity "I think it's the biggest exposed scandal in football history." Hugh MacDonald compares Rangers' EBT saga to Manchester City, found guilty on 114 of the 115 Premier League charges, and the £900m of "imperfectly registered" players at the heart of it. Why the Rangers story has been retold ("Rangers weren't relegated", and Gretna didn't get back in), why EBTs were never the real problem but the side letters were, and why the City verdict has already "devalued, discredited, and put a cloud over the sporting integrity" of the season. From The Journos with Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Gordon Parks. Transcript: See, we've witnessed it before. We witnessed it with Rangers. And the great thing about Rangers is much as what happened to Rangers whatever it was 12 14 years ago has been reshaped and there's been new narratives about like the narrative Rangers were relegated. Rangers weren't relegated. We know that didn't happen. Rangers had to apply to get into the league and with the help of you know some very willing partners and some not so willing as we remember they got into the SPFL. Yeah. Whereas Gretna for example didn't when they were liquidated they went into I think it was the South of Scotland league initially. So there's things that get changed. Another thing was is a great EBT saga. And the EBT saga is not about EBTs per se because everybody will shout, "But EBTs were legal and all that." Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The problem with Rangers was they had side letters, which the SFA and other clubs didn't know about. And then it was found in inquiry that all these players were, and I'll use my words carefully because that's the word they used, imperfectly registered. Yes, that was the problem. And this is going to be another big problem for Man City. Is this imperfect, because that was the words that you used registration of the 900 million. 900 million is it's the it's the biggest I think it's the biggest exposed scandal in football history.

Then Josh McPake's comeback from Stirling Albion to Hearts, Billy Gilmour ("a Gascoigne and a McStay"), and the big call: Scott McTominay in, Lewis Ferguson out. Plus Scotland's striker crisis ("What on earth are we doing at our academies?"), Oli McBurnie's pressure to score, and why not one starter came from the Scottish Premiership: "our standard in the Scottish Premiership is dire", or as Gordon puts it, maybe that's a good thing.

Dominik tells Peter Martin on Straight Talk why Celtic can lose all four big games, two in Europe and two against Rangers, and still sit top of the league. He says Kasper is being played as a Chris Sutton target man when he scores from balls whipped in from the flanks, asks whether Martin O'Neill is really in charge, and says "the people who run the club are just vile". Plus why Dermot Desmond can't be moved, why the banter years have been "brilliant for the rest of Scottish football", and what O'Neill deserves when he goes. Then the memories: Romano Petrucci of Stranraer turning him Celtic, the last day against Hearts watched from Canada, the ticket gamble at Seville 2003, naming his son Charlie Henrik after Henrik Larsson, and the priest who saved his night at the Nou Camp.

"It would be financial madness." Peter Martin, Alec Rae and Allan Rough on why Rangers should not spend 20m on Lewis Ferguson - and why the whole story was never real. The panel break down the Lewis Ferguson to Rangers talk: yes, there is a family connection through his dad Derek and uncle Barry, but at his age and profile a 15-20m fee with no sell-on value would be madness - the smart move is to wait until he is out of contract and pay the wages, not a fee.

He talks about losing everything on an alpaca farm that had no alpacas, clawing his way back in Canadian radio, faith and family, and how a Pac-Man song in a Halifax blues club turned into a London show that sold out in 48 hours. Then the football. How a Rangers-supporting boy from Arbroath became Celtic daft thanks to Romano Petrucci of Stranraer. Why Celtic are top of the league despite losing all four big games, two in Europe and two against Rangers, why Kasper is being played as a Chris Sutton target man, the board and Dermot Desmond, and why the banter years have been "brilliant for the rest of Scottish football".

Why Dermot Desmond won't sack Martin O'Neill, no matter what the Celtic fans want. The panel explain there is no impetus to change the manager unless Dermot Desmond drives it - and he simply won't tell Martin O'Neill he is out. Any change, they argue, would have to come from the O'Neill camp itself. Given their long relationship and what O'Neill did for him earlier in the year, Desmond will give him every opportunity. Transcript: There's not going to be any impetus. Let's be frank about this. The impetus to change a manager would have to be at least sanctioned. I would think absolutely motivated and driven by Dermot Desmond. Yes. Right. I can see no occasion where Dermot Desmond goes to Martin and says you're out, you know, because he just wouldn't. I mean, you just wouldn't do that. It's a lie of duty then. What what needs to any any change in that managerial situation will have to come from the O'Neill camp. It's nonsense. that's a nonsensical situation. It's a nonsensical situation, a paradox for a football club. I'm not saying it's right. I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm just saying this is what I believe is the the levers would have to engage would have to come from Martin. Martin would have to go to Dermot Desmond and say listen and say well fine blahy blah. I don't see Desmond phoning enough. You've got to remember a couple you know these people particularly Dermot Desmond will have seen Dermot Desmond will have seen big heavy times in business and he's used to weathering storms and crisises but he's also used to dealing with people and paying off his debts and what he's and you you've got to look at what Dermot apart from what he thought about Martin with their long-term relationship with what Martin did Not 10 years ago, not 23 years, 6 months ago, not even 6 months ago in May. You know what he did in May for him, what he did in the in the winter for him. So Dermot Desmond will be giving Martin every opportunity. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HPlwK19PgP4 118 2026-09-28T12:33:57+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/wheres-uganda-bobby-williamsons-incredible-african-adventure-ggqSFvKsVDg 2026-10-22T16:10:13+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ggqSFvKsVDg/maxresdefault.jpg "Where's Uganda?": Bobby Williamson's incredible African adventure From Easterhouse to four titles in Africa - Bobby tells Peter Martin, Tam McManus and Jerry McCabe how he ended up managing in Uganda (and couldn't find it on a map), winning the CECAFA tournament four times, the poolside phone call that convinced him to stay, coaching players who spoke little English, and why he is now getting a little restless.

Peter Martin is joined by journalists Hugh MacDonald and Gordon Parks on The Journos. On Celtic: a GBP 4.8m loss after tax, a swing from around GBP 34m profit a year earlier with revenue down almost 23%, a merchandise boycott and a fanbase in revolt. Gordon Parks says the club are "reaping what they sow", while Hugh MacDonald argues Dermot Desmond "will never be forced to sell" - and that another car crash AGM is coming. Plus the duty-of-care debate over Martin O'Neill's future, and why any change can only come from Desmond or O'Neill himself. On Rangers: how Derek McInnes dragged the season around, got the board to back his recruitment, and made his signings believe again after a wretched European exit. On Hibs: the manager search, whether Neil Lennon should go back, and the fallout from David Gray's sacking. On Scotland: Pocognoli's new era, the anthem froth, the striker problem, and whether Scotland are better "just being Scottish".

The panel on why the Celtic board believe they're untouchable. The argument on the show: this Celtic board are happy just to finish first, and 15 titles in 16 years has convinced them they're beyond criticism. Over the summer they only replaced the players who left rather than strengthening, banked an £11m profit, and let Rangers spend £25-30m to build a deeper, stronger squad. It maybe needed Hearts to win the league last year, the panel say, for anything drastic to change at Celtic Park. Transcript: That Celtic board are just quite happy to finish first. They got away with it last year. They've won the league 15 out of 16 times, so they'll think they're immune from criticism. What do you want us to do? We've won the league 15 out of 16 times, so we know what we're doing, we're successful. So maybe it needed Hearts to win the league last year for something drastic to happen at Celtic. But you look at the summer, Celtic have just tried to replace the guys that left. They haven't actually strengthened the squad. They were 11 million pound in profit. Rangers went out and spent 25 to 30 million pound, and they're getting the fruits of that now, because they've got a deep squad and a lot of quality in the squad. Whereas Celtic, you're thinking they're still weak in areas. Luke Macau comes in, for example, out of nowhere. You've got Oxley Chamberlain there. Surely he goes in and plays beside Callum McGregor and you keep it quite solid in there. You play Macau, you hook him at half-time. Need a new kit for your team?

Also covers whether Oxlade-Chamberlain should be playing alongside McGregor instead of McCown. Celtic banked £11m in profit while Rangers spent £25-30m and, the panel argue, didn't strengthen the squad at all. The point on the show: this Celtic board look happy just to finish first.

Peter Martin, Gary Harkins and Tam McManus break down a second straight Old Firm win and ask whether this is a genuine momentum shift. The panel give Rangers full credit: Derek McInnes set up to be aggressive, press high and play through a big, physical back three, and Celtic simply gave the ball away all afternoon. They created the better chances, controlled the midfield through Nicolas Raskin and his partner, and were unlucky not to win by more. Celtic were ragged after the break, went long and hopeful, and were lucky to lose only 1-0. Martin O'Neill's side are still near the top, but on this evidence Rangers were, in the panel's words, "better in every department". Also in this one: seven wins on the bounce and what a McInnes team really looks like, why Rangers now have more squad depth than Celtic, the new centre-half who looks "top drawer", the "it's only three points" message McInnes was keen to send, and the real test still to come against the likes of St Mirren and Kilmarnock.

Their verdict is blunt, Dermot Desmond must go. Transcript: My gut feeling at the moment is I think Martin might say enough is enough. Um I think there are as everybody has mentioned there are bigger problems at Celtic uh right now. Two new uh members to the board will not make a blind bit of difference. They're well known to the board. So that's that's been cherry-picked. Um so that's not going to make any difference. I think Celtic's bigger problems quite simply. And again Glasgow is a place where rumors fly around all the time. that rumor about Willie Haughey um looking at trying to get them bought out um has been going for about six months. It's been it's been doing the rounds for such a long time. It's well known uh that Willie probably has a fair bit of money. I think it might take some kind of uh group of wealthy people to oust Dermot, but unless someone takes Dermot Desmond out of the financial equation and takes control of Celtic, I think the Celtic fans are in for more pain, more indecisiveness, more uh chasing the profits rather than chasing the ambitions that the Celtic fans crave. changing of the board is going to be very difficult with a billionaire who um has that arrogant streak about him and he will not be budged. The rest of the board is irrelevant because quite simply they just dance to his tune. Um so Dermot is the the main man and unless they can get people in there to take his share and take control of Celtic I think the Celtic fans are in for more pain. That is what the big change is. The board is the problem. Every one of them needs to go and lots of other people in that in that club need to reassess their position.

That's a damning indictment of the recruitment at Celtic.' The panel take aim at Celtic's summer transfer business after Celtic 0-1 Rangers, with the jury out on most of the new signings, three or four not even seen yet, and a squad that now looks short of the depth and physicality Rangers have built for Scottish football. The verdict: if Martin O'Neill looks at this group and decides he hasn't got the players to win the league, he walks away. Transcript: Yeah, I think when you look at the players that Celtic have brought in, the jury's out on quite a few of them already and I know it's early doors, but only two of the players that have been signed started. Yeah, I've seen that as well, which is a damning indictment again on the recruitment at Celtic. So, you know, they've signed players. There's three or four who you've not even seen yet. So, yeah, I think for Martin O'Neill, he he will sit down and and and look at it and go, "Right, have I got the the players in the building to turn this around to win the league this season?" And if the answer's no, then I think he'll walk away. So he'll he'll he'll he'll think about that. You know, if I get if I get the strength and depth in here to go a full season with a squad, I get to January and win the league. If the answer's no, I think he'll walk away. And and I and I think that the answer is possibly no at the minute, but I'm looking at the Celtic squad. I'm looking at the Celtic squad at the minute and I'm looking at the Rangers squad. I think the Rangers squad has got more depth. I think that the Rangers squad is is built more for Scottish football. Um, I think they've got a manager in there who understands it. Martin O'Neill does as well. But the last two games have been a real eye-opener for me with this Celtic squad. I think they've been bullied physically. And you look at it and you go, "Right, can they can they go more physical in the middle of the park? https://www.youtube.com/embed/9Znbi9hG5ok 100 2026-09-22T12:31:17+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/do-rangers-have-a-stronger-squad-than-celtic-rangers-rangersfc-celticfc-yQWMPsgvhTg 2026-10-15T14:30:14+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yQWMPsgvhTg/hqdefault.jpg Do Rangers have a stronger squad than Celtic? #rangers #rangersfc #celticfc Do Rangers now have a stronger, deeper squad than Celtic? After back-to-back Old Firm wins, the panel make the case for Derek McInnes' side. They point to a manager proven in Scottish football, who nearly won the league with Hearts, did well at Aberdeen and got Kilmarnock into Europe, and who has finally spent well after wasting money in previous windows, bringing quality players into the right positions. The upshot, they argue, is a Rangers squad with more depth than Celtic's, and a very different feeling heading into the international break. Transcript: And a lot of them would be the odd goal, you know, they're grinding out results and and and Derek McInnes knows how to do that in Scottish football. You know, he's he's proven in Scottish football. He nearly won the league with hearts last year. Um he done very well at Aberdeen as well. You know, finished in Europe with Kilmarnock, you know, Scottish football. He knows the league and you know, he's brought players in of of good caliber, you know, and Rangers were always going to get it right eventually. They've spent a lot of money in this window. They have wasted a lot of money in previous windows, but I think when you look at some of the the players that they brought in this window, there's quality. So I think he's brought them in in the right positions as well. He has. He strengthened the right the right the right positions. You're right. And and I think the squad depth has got more depth to it than than Celtic as well. So no honestly I think if you're a Rangers supporter after the start they had where you're thinking it's another season winning anything.

Who's up and who's down in the Scottish Premiership? Dundee are flying under Steven Pressley, in the top half and playing good football, while Motherwell are in freefall under his successor to Jens Berthel Askou, six defeats in eight. Aberdeen and Hibs shared a 1-1 draw, with Kevin Nisbet, now on 12 goals and wearing the armband, again the difference, and Stuart Armstrong catching the eye off the bench. Who will be the next Hibs manager? With the board and Malky Mackay under real pressure, the panel expect Hibs to look abroad, and run through the names in the frame, from Jaydon Thomasson to Simo Valakari, while Steven Pressley and Jordan McGlynn are ruled out by their Hearts connections. Who is getting relegated? Kilmarnock, St Johnstone and Falkirk are the panel's picks for the bottom scrap, though Kilmarnock's turnaround under Neil McCann, backed up by a battling draw at Hearts, suggests they may yet climb clear, and Dundee United's 3-0 win on Jim Goodwin's return was the shock of the weekend. Has the title race really flipped? Three weeks ago Celtic looked set to dominate; two Old Firm defeats later, Rangers are two points back and rising. The panel argue nothing is won in September, but Celtic must strengthen physically in January or the momentum stays with Rangers.

Durrant is full of praise for a settled Rangers back line, with the new centre-half "outstanding" alongside Fernandez and Sterling, and reserves special mention for Ryan Naderi, who "didn't train all week and played a man's job". He loves the young midfield pairing of Nico Raskin and Dan Neil, and reckons McInnes has learned a lot about who he can trust over a decisive few weeks. For Durrant, with Europe gone, the focus is clear: a cup semi-final against Aberdeen to look forward to, but the main aim is winning the Premier League. Transcript: I think ma has been outstanding Peter he's come in and well we came to the pedigree being a really good player he looks he's got a bit of solidity he's settled down big Fernandez me pen race has come in and done I think injured yesterday. I thought Sterling was outstanding in terms of defensive qualities and in the top front now they they played their job yesterday they handle was get thrown him and Naderi now I don't think he trained all week played a man's job and I'm I'm loving the two in the middle of the park as well I think they're now again you look at the age of now Raskin and and uh Dan Neil and they're playing a part but it's a team thing and uh they've just got to keep that momentum stick together and uh there will be hard times but that's what you'll find out and I think Derek McInnes's found out a lot in the last few weeks about his team and how you can the word trust and how you can trust them you've been a winner with Rangers Do you think the benchmark for this team is still win the title this season? Of course that's that's your main a bonus uh you love to be in Europe but we're not in Europe so we can now focus on as I said we're in the semi-final a tough game against Aberdeen and you just got to keep going.

Will Celtic manager Martin O'Neill resign due to stress, health concerns, recent poor team performances, and a lack of proper squad depth? Poor Celtic FC Recruitment and Squad Quality: There is heavy criticism of Celtic’s recent recruitment strategy, noting that only two new signings started Celtic vs Rangers and that the current squad lacks the physical and technical quality of previous seasons. Celtic Player On-Field Performance Concerns: We highlight that Celtic appears weak, easily pressed, and vulnerable against opponents compared to Rangers, who are perceived to have built a stronger, deeper squad tailored for Scottish football. Potential Martin O'Neill Replacements: Odds and potential candidates for the managerial role are debated, including Neil Lennon, Shaun Maloney, Scott Brown, Robbie Keane, Steve Clarke, and Kieran McKenna. Celtic FC Boardroom and Ownership Issues: The panel argue that Celtic’s broader problems stem from board oversight and Dermot Desmond's ownership approach, which they suggest prioritizes financial profits over competitive European ambition. 00:00 – Martin O'Neill's Future & Potential Resignation Discussion on whether Celtic manager Martin O'Neill might resign due to stress, recent poor performances, and health concerns. 01:53 – Poor Recruitment & Squad Depth Issues Critique of Celtic's recent transfer recruitment strategy and a comparison of their lack of squad depth against Rangers. 03:22 – Post-Match Comments & On-Field Struggles Analysis of O'Neill's press conference comments, refereeing decisions during the recent match, and Celtic’s physical and technical vulnerabilities on the pitch. 05:28 – Celtic Boardroom & Dermot Desmond Criticism Addressing boardroom oversight, takeover rumours, and criticism of Dermot Desmond’s ownership approach favouring financial profit over European ambition in the Champions League. 08:23 – Celtic's Upcoming Fixture Risks & Managerial Candidates An overview of Celtic's challenging schedule https://www.youtube.com/embed/aqBqFyu3fDc 1078 2026-09-22T09:00:32+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/ian-durrant-celtic-are-the-benchmark-for-rangers-rangers-rangersfc-celticfc-E9cPNu3h-V4 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/E9cPNu3h-V4/maxresdefault.jpg Ian Durrant: ‘Celtic are the benchmark for Rangers’ #rangers #rangersfc #celticfc 'Celtic are the benchmark for what Rangers are trying to get to.' - With Rangers riding high after back-to-back Old Firm wins, Rangers legend Ian Durrant offers a note of caution: Celtic are still the standard, and there are plenty of tough games ahead, not least a trip to Tynecastle that has not been kind to Rangers in recent years. He does, though, credit a side that has come through an injury crisis, with Kelsey and Ryan Naderi "doing a man's job". Ian Durrant Interview Transcript: Celtic, they are the benchmark for what Rangers are trying to get to. So it's good just now but there's a lot of tough games ahead now you've got to Tynecastle which has not been really good for us the last few years and we've been to Aberdeen we've been to Celtic now massive games but a lot a lot of tough games and now a couple of weeks ago they had a few major injuries now they seem to get over that and the boys Kelsey and Naderi have turned up and they're doing a man's job. #Rangers #Celtic #RangersFC #OldFirm #DerekMcInnes #ScottishFootball #PLZSoccer Get your tickets for the Tennent’s Sixes here: https://spfltennentssixes.co.uk https://www.youtube.com/embed/E9cPNu3h-V4 29 2026-09-21T21:19:41+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/does-tom-boyd-back-martin-oneill-celtic-celticfc-football-i6QwE3qFzQU 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/i6QwE3qFzQU/maxresdefault.jpg Does Tom Boyd back Martin O'Neill? #celtic #celticfc #football 'I don't see a reason why he wouldn't stay.' - As the pundits line up to say Martin O'Neill should walk away, Celtic legend Tom Boyd pushes back, backing the manager to stay on at Celtic.

Tam McManus reckons Martin O'Neill will call time on his managerial career in the International break, after achieving everything he could with Celtic. Gary Harkins has been singing the praises of his old club Dundee and their manager Steven Pressley. Has the pendulum of power swayed towards Rangers in the race for the title? Peter Martin is joined by special guest Gary Harkins and Tam McManus to pick over a chastening weekend for Celtic, beaten 1-0 at home by Rangers to complete back-to-back Old Firm defeats, and to ask the question every Celtic fan is asking: has Martin O'Neill had enough, and is the board the real problem? Why did Celtic lose to Rangers again? The panel are blunt. Rangers were a "carbon copy" of their Ibrox win, a powerful back three led by Fernandez bullying Celtic's front line, Ryan Naderi the star man, and Rangers so dominant that "1-0 flattered Celtic" on a day it could have been three or four. Celtic, "men against boys", were bullied physically and, but for one Kieran Tierney shot, barely threatened. Will Martin O'Neill walk away from Celtic? Peter and Tam both sense O'Neill may use the international break to say enough is enough, with his legacy intact and no need for the hassle or the stain on his reputation, especially with a brutal run of fixtures, Motherwell, Benfica, Hearts and more, on the horizon. Is the Celtic board the real problem? For the panel, yes. Whoever the manager is, they argue Celtic chase profits over ambition, that the slide dates back to selling Kyogo, and that nothing changes until Dermot Desmond is bought out. They run through the runners and riders if O'Neill goes, from Neil Lennon and Shaun Maloney to Kieran McKenna and the one they let go, Jens Berthel Askou. Plus, Derek McInnes' Rangers revival and superb recruitment, and a full round-up of the weekend: Hibs 1-1 Aberdeen and Kevin https://www.youtube.com/embed/5YRHVswMojQ 2026-09-21T16:04:14+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/have-mcgregors-legs-gone-celtic-0-1-rangers-reaction-celticfc-rangersfc-oldfirm-BWHmuHM-Jb8 2026-09-21T13:10:15+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BWHmuHM-Jb8/maxresdefault.jpg Have McGregor's legs gone? - Celtic 0-1 Rangers Reaction #celticfc #rangersfc #oldfirm People are asking whether Callum McGregor's legs have gone. Peter Martin feels the Captain should be supported by younger midfielders hungry to learn from his experience. Peter also notes Martin O'Neill may walk away from Celtic after Old Firm defeat to Rangers. Rangers beat Celtic in the Old Firm derby thanks to Ryan Nadiri's winner, with the Peter Martin saying Rangers were by far the better side. He suggests Martin O'Neill could call it a day before the end of the international break, brands Celtic's goalkeeping and back line short of standard, and questions if Callum McGregor is too old to play for Celtic.

Until Dermot Desmond sells up, he argues, nothing changes, because this board is a shambles and the whole structure needs to go. Transcript: Um, and I think you only have to look at something I've been consistent with uh throughout this year and previous years as well when I've highlighted what the problem is. And the problem is quite simply that this board lacks the ambition to try and take Celtic to another level. And they've had that lack of ambition um for a considerable amount of time, not just the last year to 18 months. I stretch back to the selling of Kyogo in the January of 2025 and then from there on it's just been a a downward slope. It's a slide down the way while the profits go up. I've said it consistently. They are a well-run club with accountants and of course figures in mind and every one of them has been rewarded for putting the profits first. The Celtic fans have backed them financially, but they haven't been backed with the ambition, whether it be uh European football, where they just want to be able to compete. Nobody's asking them to spend 20 million on a player. Not one Celtic fan I know has asked them that. I think they've looked and said, "Look, let's be ambitious. Let's have a long-term strategy." But there isn't one. It's just constantly sell the players, and then it's it's degrading the players that they're buying in. There doesn't seem to be any great foresight into it, a long-term strategy. And I think until Dermot Desmond finally decides that enough is enough, and he sells the club up and gives someone else a chance to come in as a majority shareholder or as someone who takes over completely, this board is a shambles.

O'Neill may yet walk to protect his legacy, but the real reckoning, Peter argues, is coming for the board, with the November AGM the next flashpoint and "more pain" before any real change. O'Neill may quit to protect his legacy as Celtic board's time is up too - Peter Martin argues Celtic's one-year deal for Martin O'Neill shows a lack of forward planning, predicting he may step aside to protect his legacy now he's delivered the title and cup. He also says the Celtic board's time is up, with more fan unrest expected around the November AGM. Is the Celtic board the real problem? For Peter, absolutely. O'Neill staying or going "will not solve the problems" because Celtic's problems run deep and sit in the boardroom: a lack of ambition he traces back to selling Kyogo in January 2025, a strategy built on profit and accountancy rather than competing, and no long-term plan. Until Dermot Desmond sells up, he argues, "this board is a shambles", the whole structure needs to change, and the November AGM will bring more pain before any real change comes.

Martin O'Neill or the Celtic Board for not backing him during the transfer window? Since 2025, Celtic has gotten weaker and its only a matter of time before Martin O'Neill can't paper over the cracks. Celtic 0-1 Rangers, and the question every Celtic fan is asking: who is really at fault, Martin O'Neill or the Celtic board that failed to back him in the transfer window? Peter Martin's answer is blunt, this board is shambolic, and the rot goes back long before this defeat. Who is to blame for Celtic 0-1 Rangers? Peter argues the manager is not the root of it. Celtic have been getting weaker since 2025, and it is only a matter of time before Martin O'Neill can no longer paper over the cracks. The real problem, he says, sits in the boardroom: a lack of ambition, a strategy built on profit rather than progress, and a club that has sold its best players without replacing them properly. Why were Rangers so good? This was a comprehensive Rangers win. Derek McInnes' side were "sensational" and tactically spot-on, the back three earning high marks for spirit, togetherness and discipline, dominating the game, exposing Celtic's defensive weaknesses again and again, and arguably good enough to have won by three or four. What is wrong with Celtic? The verdict on Celtic is damning: "totally and utterly disjointed" and "hopeless from middle to front", with issues that Peter traces all the way back to January 2025. Until the board changes, he argues, the same problems will keep coming round. The Football Show is PLZ Soccer's no-spin Scottish football show with Peter Martin.

After Celtic 0-1 Rangers, and having listened to his post-match press conference, Peter Martin has a strong feeling that Martin O'Neill might use the international break to decide enough is enough and walk away from Celtic himself. But, he argues, O'Neill going will not fix what is really wrong at Celtic Park. Will Martin O'Neill leave Celtic? Peter's gut call is that O'Neill, with nothing left to prove and a great legacy already secured, may look at the hassle and go, perhaps regretting that he did not walk at the end of last season with the Scottish Cup and league already won. He is careful to say he might be "100% wrong", but the feeling is that O'Neill would rather leave on his own terms than have the board eventually tell him his time is up. Why can't Celtic compete with Rangers? The football verdict is damning. Rangers, superb again after their Ibrox win, are worthy 1-0 winners through Ryan Naderi and could have had more, while Celtic look "completely and utterly disjointed": a goalkeeper below standard, a weak back line, forwards who cannot score, and a captain in Callum McGregor being exposed with no support, to the point some are asking if his legs have gone. Is the Celtic board the real problem? For Peter, absolutely. O'Neill staying or going "will not solve the problems" because Celtic's problems run deep and sit in the boardroom: a lack of ambition he traces back to selling Kyogo in January 2025, a strategy built on profit and accountancy rather than competing, and no long-term plan.

The problem is the board.' #celtic #celticfc #oldfirm 'Luke McCowan is not the problem. The problem is the board.' Peter Martin answers a viewer on Celtic's selection, why Luke McCowan starts ahead of Oxlade-Chamberlain, why he thinks McCowan will be sold in January, and why none of it matters next to a board he calls shambolic and in need of a complete clear-out. Transcript: Jack Newland says, "Martin has to explain how Luke McCowan, who's been cast out as a nomad, starts when Oxlade-Chamberlain, who's been decent this season, ends up getting no game time." Jack, I have to agree with you. It's such a pertinent point. I mean, I thought Oxlade-Chamberlain gave them a bit of creativity in the middle of the park. He hasn't had a sniff in the last four or five weeks. And I think he's a far better player than Luke McCowan. I don't understand why he's not on the park. I have to say in January, I think Luke McCowan will be offloaded. I don't think he's at a standard of a Celtic player. No harm to the boy. He's a big Celtic fan, but I just don't think he's good enough. But to be honest with you, the level that Celtic have dropped to, is he good enough to play in this haphazard poor uh Celtic side? Probably at the moment, yes, because they are nowhere near champions. They will not win the league with this mob. Uh the the players are so inept and you know, Luke McCowan is not the problem. The problem, as I've highlighted, goes back to January of 2025. This board is shambolic. They need a complete clear out until Celtic get a new owner and get Dermot Desmond out the door. They will continue to have this nightmare scenario. It's just unfolding one day, one week, one month, one year after another. Their strategy is faulty. It is all about accountancy and nothing about ambition. And that's why you've got a good Rangers side now looking as if it's going to get better. Is able to come to Celtic Park and limit them to one shot on target and they could have had three or four goals.

Well, listen uh he's got a lot of soulsearching to do in the three weeks before Celtic come back. But I think today is all about what Rangers did. It's all about Rangers and the way they performed. They had countless opportunities. Let's not forget when uh Minsu Kim hit that shot, Sinisalo woefully poor and he just parried it out into Ryan Naderi's path and he was first to react to put the ball in the net. So, it it's been a good week for Naderi as well. He really uh not only led the line, but he put in a shift. He was back helping out the midfield as well and the defense and it just shows the togetherness of the Rangers side. So, I thought he was one of the star men on the day. got the goal and then after that Gassama could have actually scored another just nipping in chipping the goalkeeper and unlucky that it come back off the post. They had so many opportunities and for Celtic only to have one shot on target at home and that was Kieran Tierney's which come off the bar that is a sad indictment of how far Celtic have fallen since you go back to the February of 2025.

Peter Martin reacts to Derek McInnes' Rangers winning at Celtic Park to complete back-to-back Old Firm wins over Martin O'Neill's Celtic, and asks the question every Celtic fan is asking after another humiliation: is it time to sack the board, sack the manager, or both? Why did Celtic lose to Rangers again? Peter Martin does not hold back. Rangers, he says, were "quite simply magnificent", getting into Celtic's faces exactly as they did in the 3-0 win at Ibrox a week earlier, bossing the game and creating chance after chance. Ryan Naderi got the only goal after the Celtic keeper spilled a shot into his path, and was the star man. Celtic, going 3-5-2, looked weak at the back and managed just one shot on target all afternoon, Kieran Tierney off the bar, with Callum McGregor exposed and a 35-year-old James Forrest relied upon to rescue it. Should Celtic sack the board or the manager? This is the heart of it. Peter argues Martin O'Neill has been "left exposed" by a Celtic board he has "long and weary" criticised, a board he calls "shambolic", "all about accountancy and nothing about ambition", with players sold and profit banked instead of a squad built. His verdict: O'Neill perhaps should have walked after the Scottish Cup final with his legacy intact, but if the board sacks him now, "the board has got to go", and Dermot Desmond with them. He points to a brutal run of fixtures and the November AGM as the next flashpoints. Was Derek McInnes' Rangers really that good? Yes. Peter hands the Rangers back three "10 out of 10", credits McInnes with transforming the side into a well-drilled, spirited unit now just two points behind Celtic, and asks whether the manager once denied the title on the final day as Hearts boss can now win it with Rangers.

Did Martin O'Neill say "honey" or "Connie"? One of the accusations was that O'Neill called the reporter "honey" during a bad-tempered interview, and it took off on social media, but the reporter, Connie McLaughlin, came out and clarified that he said "Connie". The panel reckon it was seized upon, that O'Neill looked "tired and flat", and that the noise around it took attention away from the football. Was the press storm blown out of proportion? The panel argue the story gained extra traction because a female reporter was asking the questions, while being clear she is "brilliant, a really good reporter" asking exactly the right things. From a manager's point of view, the message is simple: you will always get asked awkward questions, you do not always have to answer them, and O'Neill, "a seasoned campaigner", could have deflected it better rather than fuelling the fire.

How did John Potter reflect on the draw? Potter takes the point but is honest that, at a club like Hibs and at home, you need to win. He felt the second half was much better, that Hibs got into good areas without quite committing the extra body or the extra pass, and that they had to stay wary of Aberdeen's threat on the break. A fair result, he says, but a little disappointing not to find a winner. What did Potter say about David Gray? This is where it hits hardest. Potter pays a warm tribute to David Gray, a man who spent 12 years at the club, "a brilliant manager" and "a friend to everybody". He describes a difficult week, sitting the players down and telling them they still had a job to do, and admits some of them were visibly hurting, even before kick-off. David Gray, he says, would want the players trying to win games. What is the next Hibs manager inheriting? Potter is clear: a good group of players who work hard, train well and give 100%. Recent results have gone against them by fine margins, a missed chance here, a red card there, but never, he insists, through a lack of effort. Transcript: John, were you uh happy with a point considering how difficult it's been this week? Uh yeah, probably. I don't like saying that though because when you're at a club like this and you're at home, you need to win games of football and we've maybe not done that the last little bit. So, you always want to win. I think in terms of the game, we had some good moments. Second half was much better. I think I still think the first half we got in good areas, but didn't didn't maybe commit that extra body or a bit slop of the extra pass. Uh but second half was much better. The one thing I would say, I think if anyone was going to win it, I did think we were pushing for that, but I didn't a massive threat going the other way on https://www.youtube.com/embed/bHPK6eQ_8uY 137 2026-09-19T19:31:40+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/all-evidence-points-to-a-rangers-win-celtic-vs-rangers-predictions-f_4zRGWiMRg 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/f_4zRGWiMRg/maxresdefault.jpg "All evidence points to a Rangers win" - Celtic vs Rangers Predictions CELTIC VS RANGERS OLD FIRM PREVIEW: Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Gordon Parks are joined by special guest Owen Coyle to preview Sunday's Old Firm, from how you build a dressing room that wins these games to the injury row, the tactics and a panel split straight down the middle on the score. How do you build a team that wins an Old Firm? Owen Coyle explains what really matters in recruitment: bringing in "good men, good people", taking up character references, and treating a squad like "an extension of family", because it only takes one bad signing to "upset the whole dynamic". It is that togetherness, he argues, that Rangers had been missing and have started to rediscover. Can Rangers beat Celtic at Celtic Park? Derek McInnes is "not happy with the challenge by Bower on Naderi", whose ankle is "in a mess" and who is now a doubt, with Jim Gillespie contacting the SFA amid the usual frustration over VAR and overturned on-field decisions. On the pitch, the panel expect Rangers to press high, "get in their faces" and make it a physical battle, with a new centre-half partnership having steadied a previously soft defence, while Celtic's habit of conceding from the edge of the box is flagged as the danger. What's the Old Firm score prediction? "Whoever scores first wins", the panel agree, before splitting: 2-1 Rangers on current confidence and physicality against 1-0 Celtic on home advantage and the scale of the points at stake. An Old Firm divide, right here on the panel.

How does Robinson sum up Aberdeen's week? After a brutal schedule of travel and quick turnarounds, the Aberdeen manager is upbeat: his side come out of the mini-block two points off fourth and into a semi-final, and he is full of praise for players and staff who "worked tirelessly". A point, he says, was deserved by both teams at Easter Road. Was the penalty soft? No grievance from Robinson: "it was a penalty." He admits that defending too deep invites punishment, praises Aberdeen's threat on the counter, but accepts a mistake and a bad decision cost his side the lead. What's next for Aberdeen? Robinson wants his players to get a much-needed break after six games in 18 days, then two weeks of work before St Johnstone, a game he sees as a chance to climb into the top four if Aberdeen can beat "a very good St Johnstone side". Transcript: Stephen, it's it's been not a bad week. How would you how would you sum it up, including this match? Um, it's been a great week, Peter. Um, I think the fixture list was very very on the traveling, the turnaround, and um, we've managed to finish this mini block of games, two points off, fourth, and then a semi-final. So, it's um, credit to the players and the staff. Uh, I think they've worked tirelessly to um, implement what we're trying to do and um, probably a point was was deserved by both teams today. Were you hoping that maybe Jack was a wee bit more street wise or did you have any grievance with the penalty? No, no, it was a penalty. Um, yeah, it was a penalty and I feel if you you defend that deep, you're going to make a mistake and get punished at some stage of the game and the first half or line of engagement was higher. Um, I thought we played really well on the counter at times, some really good stuff, but um you're ulti https://www.youtube.com/embed/n_IOiLNMcnY 99 2026-09-19T17:10:30+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/hibs-1-1-aberdeen-8k2RfdK5m2I 2026-10-22T16:10:13+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8k2RfdK5m2I/maxresdefault.jpg Hibs 1-1 Aberdeen Hibs 1-1 Aberdeen at Easter Road, the first game since David Gray's sacking, and it was the returning old boy who struck first. Kevin Nisbet, back at Easter Road in Aberdeen colours, side-footed the Dons in front from close range for his 12th goal of the season, before Hibs hit back just past the hour through a Boyle penalty after a foul on Jason Kerr. It was not a classic, with some home fans making their feelings about the club's direction clear, and with the search for David Gray's successor now the big question, John Potter's interim side took a point. Stephen Robinson's Aberdeen, on a strong week, might have wanted more. Transcript: It's Hibs one, Aberdeen one, and many of the home supporters here were wondering what they were going to get from this side after the sacking of David Gray in midweek. Well, they battled, but they went a goal behind in the first half from an old Hibs boy, Kevin Nisbet, with an easy side foot pass into the back of the net when he was inside the six-yard box with time. And you know what happens? Scored his 12th goal of the season. In the second half, with a few changes, Hibs rallied and just beyond the hour, they got a penalty. Jack Milne barging into Jason Kerr. The referee pointed to the spot and Boyle rifled it from 12 yards into the rim of the net to make it level between the two sides. It wasn't a classic. Wasn't great to watch. A few dissenting Hibs fans shouting "Malky Mackay out". But realistically, Hibs have got more worries about who they get to become the manager, who's the candidate that can take this club forward at the end of a very difficult week. They'll be happy with a point. Maybe Steven Robinson would have been hoping for much more considering what's been happening here in Leith. But nevertheless, honors even here at Easter Road. It finished Hibs one, Aberdeen one.

The Hibees also say the departing Hibernian manager David Gray leaves with his reputation largely intact, despite losing six home games. Transcript: Yeah. Uh I mean listen, Paul, he's a legend here. His reputation may well be slightly tarnished because of the immediacy of losing six home games, but over the piece when you look at what he achieved here with Hibernian, I think I think he can still have his head held high. I'm not talking about a player. I'm talking about as a manager. Yeah, I think I think he'll walk out the Livingston job to be honest. I think he's a set for that. Yeah, we not have any problem getting another job, I think. Yeah. What about Hibs now? Where would you like to see them go? Probably Neil Lennon, and Scott Brown is his number two. You think that's a winning combination? I think so. I What would you like to see as far as a style for Hibs here? Because, you know, I was talking to you guys earlier.

We discuss David Gray’s sacking and who they want as Hibernian's manager. Two diehard Hibees, George Nelson and his sidekick Paul, give their honest verdict at Easter Road on David Gray's sacking, who they want in the dugout next, and how they see the game against Aberdeen going. Were Hibs right to sack David Gray? For George and Paul, the timing was wrong. They argue Hibs should have stuck with David Gray at least until after the semi-final and made changes to his backroom staff in the summer instead, but with the support turning and the atmosphere at Easter Road "dead", the hierarchy pulled the trigger. Both are quick to defend Gray the man and the Hibs legend, reckoning his reputation survives a rough run of home defeats and that he will have no trouble landing his next job. Who do the fans want as next Hibs manager? No hesitation here: they want Neil Lennon back. Both are Lennon fans who remember going to games "expecting to win", the crowds he brought in and his refusal to accept draws as any kind of success, and they would take him back tomorrow, ideally alongside his own number two. What kind of Hibs do they want to see? Get the ball down and play football, not "hump it up the park". The pair want Hibs to find a clear identity like the sides they see doing it elsewhere, rather than drifting. And the score against Aberdeen? With John Potter in interim charge, George goes a gloriously optimistic 3-1 Hibs, while Paul, the realist, brings it right back down to earth with a 1-1.

Viewers misheard O'Neill as saying "honey". However the reporter has since said that he said "Connie". Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald, Gordon Parks and special guest Owen Coyle unpick Celtic's 1-3 Europa League collapse at home to Ferencvaros, and the "car crash" TNT Sports interview that followed, the one where viewers accused Martin O'Neill of calling reporter Connie McLaughlin "honey". Did Martin O'Neill say "honey" or "Connie"? The accusation "got blown up" on social media, but the reporter has since clarified that O'Neill said "Connie", not "honey". The panel come firmly to Connie McLaughlin's defence, calling her "brilliant, a really good reporter", and argue the exchange was a legitimate, bad-tempered post-match interview that was amplified out of all proportion by modern narratives and the fact that she is a female reporter. Why did Celtic collapse against Ferencvaros? On the football, the panel are damning. They call the performance "part two" of the Ibrox defeat, with "no discernible pattern of play", a game that "slipped gently into the night" without a fight. They break down a wonderful Ferencvaros goal, Celtic's disorganisation at the back, and a worrying lack of physicality against a side that, like Rangers last Sunday, simply got "in their faces". What does it say about Celtic before the Old Firm? With Sunday's derby looming, the panel ask whether this Celtic side has the grit and physical presence to respond, or whether the same failings will be exposed all over again at Celtic Park.

With Derek McInnes calling for "same again" after bullying Celtic at Ibrox, the panel weigh Rangers' revival, the injury row hanging over the build-up, and how Rangers can hurt a Celtic side in crisis, before splitting on the score. Can Rangers beat Celtic at Celtic Park? Derek McInnes is "not happy with the challenge by Bower on Naderi", whose ankle is "in a mess" and who is now a doubt, with Jim Gillespie contacting the SFA. The panel dig into the familiar frustration over VAR inconsistency and on-field decisions being overturned, then explain why the real story is Rangers' turnaround: a word with Nico Raskin, a dressing room united behind the manager, and "a sense of togetherness" that had been missing. Where will the Old Firm be won and lost? A previously soft Rangers defence has been steadied by a new centre-half partnership, and the panel expect McInnes to send Rangers out to press high and "get in their faces", forcing Celtic into errors in their own half rather than letting them build. Against that, Celtic's recent habit of conceding from the edge of the box is flagged as the vulnerability that could decide it. What's the Old Firm score prediction? "Whoever scores first wins", the panel agree, before splitting down the middle: 2-1 Rangers on current confidence and physicality if they strike first, against 1-0 Celtic on home advantage and the sheer scale of the points at stake. An Old Firm divide, right here on the panel.

And I think even in Sunday in the derby game at Ibrox, Rangers outpowered Celtic. Yeah. Well, they outpowered them in the game that's for sure. But again, some of that comes from different things. So I think if you if you look to Sunday knowing Martin as you do and how clever he is, I think I would suggest you probably see a bigger physical team from what Celtic have depending who's available. But they certainly they've got players that can play, but it's not enough that you can just go and play. Peter, the first thing we all know in football is you've got to earn the right to play.

Will Celtic sack Mantin O'Neill? We ask the question every Celtic supporter is asking. With the board already making changes, protests inside Celtic Park and a squad that "doesn't look like a Martin O'Neill team", is Sunday's Old Firm derby against Rangers the day Martin O'Neill's Celtic future is decided? Why are Martin O'Neill's Celtic in crisis? The panel go through a chastening night. Mika Baur's goal aside, they call the performance "part two" of the Ibrox defeat, "meek" and, in one panelist's word, "spineless", with Liam Scales' own goal and woeful distribution, a lack of physicality and a defence anyone can "come at in swarms". They dissect O'Neill's "car crash" TNT Sports interview, the "honey" accusation that was really "Connie", and firmly defend reporter Connie McLaughlin. Will the Celtic board axe Martin O'Neill? Owen Coyle gives the manager's-eye view on a summer recruitment that left O'Neill with players "picked by others", why "you don't get two months to bed in" at Celtic and Rangers, and why the side has "no credibility back in Europe". With "real discontent" that has "come to the boil" and two new board appointments weighed as possible "appeasement", the panel ask how much longer O'Neill has. Is Sunday's Old Firm "mood-defining" for O'Neill? O'Neill insists Celtic are "far from rock bottom" and a win would put them "eight points clear", but the panel counter that while it may not be "career-defining", it is "mood-defining", and warn that if Celtic lose on Sunday "it's pandemonium again". Only a week ago, they note, the narrative was that Derek McInnes had to win this one.

Who wins Hibs v Aberdeen? The panel are split. Aberdeen go in on momentum and the Dons get one shout, but John Potter's impact as Hibs' interim boss, "a very good coach" who worked under Jack Ross, earns Hibs backing too. Dundee v Motherwell and St Johnstone v Falkirk It is a rare clean sweep for Dundee, the panel enjoying Steven Pressley's "brilliant" dry humour and Barry Nicholson's coaching. St Johnstone v Falkirk, with Simo Valakari a former Motherwell team-mate of the panel, is called a close, high-quality game between two similar sides, and the group lands on a draw. St Mirren v Dundee United and Kilmarnock v Hearts Craig McLeish's St Mirren get a unanimous home shout, with the good news of Jim Goodwin's return welcomed at Dundee United. Kilmarnock v Hearts splits the room, with real doubts over the Jambos' form, a run that "probably accelerated David Gray's departure", against a Kilmarnock side the panel fancy for at least a point.

Peter Martin is joined by Hugh MacDonald, Gordon Parks and special guest Owen Coyle on The Football Show, as Scottish football keeps on giving. Why are Celtic in crisis? After being humiliated 1-3 by Ferencvaros in the Europa League and bullied by Rangers at Ibrox, the panel debate Celtic's summer recruitment, their lack of European credibility, the manager's "car-crash" TNT interview, and whether Martin O'Neill can turn it around before Sunday's derby. What does Owen Coyle say about building a team? Owen Coyle shares the reality of recruitment behind the scenes, from transfers that got away to why character matters as much as ability, describing a dressing room as "an extension of family" and explaining how one wrong signing can upset the whole dynamic. Why has David Gray been sacked by Hibs? The panel react to David Gray losing his job at Hibs after a poor run of home form, the mixed emotions among Hibs fans towards a club legend, and what a manager's shelf life really looks like in modern football, before running through the weekend games including Hibs v Aberdeen and Kilmarnock v Hearts.

After a summer with no recruitment spending and a weak back line, the night unravelled from a car-crash manager's interview to two goals conceded in quick succession, before former Celtic player Arzani scored an absolute raker into the roof of the net. Celtic 1 Ferencvaros 3, another embarrassment at home, this time in the Europa League for Celtic. And there's no point in going back over what happened in the summer: Celtic have spent no money in the recruitment process. Good teams are built from the back, and Celtic do not have a good back line. The whole thing started off with a car-crash interview from the manager with one of the TNT Sports reporters, and then from there the side came out and it just went from bad to worse: going a goal behind, getting a goal back, and then, just over 100 seconds later, conceding another to go 2-1 down. And then, as if to add insult to injury, a former Celtic player, Arzani, scored an absolute raker into the roof of the net.

He warns that those issues will be exposed even more in a brutal run of fixtures — Rangers, Hearts and Motherwell domestically, followed by tough away tests against Benfica, Celta Vigo and Besiktas — making this stretch a real litmus test for the squad.

He points to a poor back line, a disjointed midfield and a front line short of confidence, and warns that a brutal run of fixtures is coming: Rangers in the Old Firm, Hearts and Motherwell in the league, then Benfica away, Celta Vigo and Besiktas in Europe. "They are going down while the profits continue to go up." Transcript: But other than that, the back line is so poor, the midfield is disjointed, and the front line is toothless at the moment and lacking in major confidence. And it doesn't really hold any great confidence for Celtic fans to know that on the horizon is Rangers. They also have Hearts and Motherwell coming up in the league, and let's not forget Benfica away, and they'll also have to deal with Celta Vigo and Besiktas in this Europa League as well. So, grim times. You can look and assess the damage and wonder if Rangers can come to Celtic Park and give them the most miserable of weeks. But on the evidence of tonight, Celtic's misery continues. They are going down while the profits continue to go up. You can make of it what you will. Celtic fans: What's your reaction to Celtic 1-3 Ferencváros?

He argues Celtic spent no money in the summer, do not have a good back line, and were undone by a disjointed midfield and a toothless front line. Why are Celtic struggling? From a "car-crash" manager's interview to conceding twice inside a couple of minutes and a screamer from former Celtic player Arzani, Peter breaks down a grim night, with 35-year-old James Forrest their best player. He questions the board's ambition, the recruitment, and whether Martin O'Neill should have walked away with legendary status after delivering the title. What is next for Celtic? It doesn't get easier: Rangers at Celtic Park in the Old Firm, Hearts and Motherwell in the league, Benfica away, plus Celta Vigo and Besiktas still to come in the Europa League. On this evidence, Celtic's misery looks set to continue. Ferencvaros ran out winners, another embarrassment at home, this time in the Europa League for Celtic. And there's no point in going back over what happened in the summer: Celtic have spent no money in the recruitment process. Good teams are built from the back, and Celtic do not have a good back line.

But other than that, the back line is so poor, the midfield is disjointed, and the front line is toothless at the moment and la https://www.youtube.com/embed/x6Z2QRrtKf8 182 2026-09-17T21:27:50+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/celtics-glaring-flaws-celticfc-celtic-j_9kwEBF-1s 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/j_9kwEBF-1s/maxresdefault.jpg Celtic's Glaring Flaws #celticfc #celtic Hugh MacDonald says he wasn't surprised Celtic lost to Rangers, pointing to glaring flaws he's seen all season on the eye test rather than the stats. He argues Celtic are simply too easy to play through, with too much space in front of the defence, an issue that showed up against LASK and Ferencvaros in Europe and again against Rangers in the Old Firm. Transcript: I was surprised with the hammering, and I wasn't surprised that Celtic lost. Not in any way, because I've watched Celtic quite a lot this season, and there's glaring flaws in the team. Flaws. We're talking about this: the stats test and the eye test. I was at the game, the home game, before the second leg, and I'm saying this isn't over, because if you were at Celtic v LASK, you would not have been convinced. I was walking out the stadium and talking to people, and nobody thought that was an overwhelming performance. Nobody. I mean, I would just think, well, three goals up, it should go through, but nobody was going to go out and put a mortgage on it. And my test, if you know about the system... I'm not an analyst, I'm not a coach of any sort, but my test, again, is the simple thing: if you watch Celtic, they're too easy to play through. There's too much space in front. Now, more educated football minds will tell you why that is, but it happens all the time, and you see it. It doesn't happen just against LASK, it happens against Rangers, which is a level too.

Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Stephen McGowan pick apart the fallout from Celtic 0-3 Rangers on The Journos, with the Old Firm meeting again at Celtic Park on Sunday. The panel argue Celtic have glaring flaws and are "nowhere near the club they should be", scrutinise a heavily criticised transfer window, weigh whether Rangers are now serious title contenders under Derek McInnes, and debate what a second derby defeat would mean for Martin O'Neill and the Celtic board. Are Celtic in crisis after losing the Old Firm? Stephen McGowan says he wasn't surprised Celtic lost, pointing to glaring flaws by both the stats test and the eye test: too easy to play through, too much space in front of the defence, and a midfield that was outfought and outrun. What is wrong with Celtic's squad? The panel go through the summer signings, from a loan goalkeeper and a young Chelsea full-back covering for Kieran Tierney, to Kasper Hogh, Oliver Sorensen, Joel van den Berg and the money spent, and ask whether Arne Engels' sale left a hole in midfield they never filled. Are Rangers serious Scottish Premiership title contenders? With Rangers over a bumpy start and into a League Cup semi-final, the panel debate whether McInnes' momentum is real, where Rangers could still struggle against a low block, and how Sunday's rematch could swing the entire narrative again.

Who is Danny McGrain? Danny McGrain is a Celtic and Scotland legend, widely regarded in his prime as the best right-back in the world, alongside Germany's Paul Breitner. Equally comfortable at left-back, he was a buccaneering attacking full-back who overcame a fractured skull and diabetes during a remarkable career, and remains an eternal hero at Celtic Park. What does the panel say about dementia in football? Prompted by McGrain's diagnosis, the panel discuss the growing toll of dementia on former players, from Jim Craig to Nobby Stiles and Jeff Astle, the work of campaign groups raising awareness, and whether the game should do more to support affected families given the scale of the care involved.

Johansson says his side will stay true to how they've trained all season, keep their chest out and heads up, and be ready to react on Saturday. Just as Motherwell didn't get carried away when they were winning, Johansson says they won't overreact now: "we won't feel we're the worst team in the world." Transcript: Before the next game, do you have to reset and go back to basics? Is that what you need to emphasise to your players? Depending on what "basics" means to you... obviously we go down the same route we've been doing since the start of the season. I think we need to have chest out and head up, and accept that tonight we lost. We need to make sure that in the next couple of days when we come back to train, we improve, we have a reaction, and we're ready on Saturday. When we were winning a couple of games, we didn't feel like we'd rule the world, and tonight we will not feel that we're the worst team in the world either. So it's just: stay true to ourselves, go back and train the same things we've been doing, and make sure we're even better next time.

Johansson describes conceding 30 seconds into the second half as "a punch in the face" that broke a young side, who then stressed, lost their structure and went too direct. His main frustration is not staying true to themselves after the break, in a night he insists rarely happens across a football season. Transcript: After 30 seconds we concede a goal, after a build-up phase. I think that's a punch in the face, for sure, like at St Mirren in the first half. But I don't like the reaction there. We then start to stress, and it's so difficult emotionally for a pretty young team, in that moment, to keep their cool and stay on track. In that moment we're stressing, we're losing the structure a little bit, and certainly around the third goal we are very direct, playing a lot of balls in the air very early. So I don't think we played the second half particularly well, no. What causes you the most frustration: that you didn't threaten their goal, or the manner of the goals you conceded? The frustration for me is mainly that we're not staying true to ourselves in the second half. That's my main frustration, to be honest. And then you concede four goals from four shots on target, from 0.9 xG. Of course, you get extremely harshly punished, and that's difficult to take. It doesn't happen many times in a football season that that happens.

Johansson says his side didn't find their tens, wingers or the nine in behind often enough, going down one side too often instead, and believed that fixing the attacking phase would be enough to win the game after the break. Motherwell's manager reflects on a good first half undone by too many one-sided attacks instead of finding tens, wingers and the nine in behind, with the team going in 1-0 up at half-time. He says fixing the attacking phase should be enough to win the game. Alfred Johansson Post Match Interview Transcript (Motherwell 0-4 Aberdeen - Scottish Premiership): A result difficult to take, but what are your feelings on the way your team played? I think we played a good first half. There are things to adjust to be even more dangerous. Normally we have really good scenarios in the first half that we're normally really good at, in our late build-up phase: finding our tens, or our wingers in behind, or even the nine in behind. I think we didn't accomplish that tonight. We had too many situations where we tried to go down one side instead of finding those players. They go into half-time 1-0, and it feels like, okay, it's not perfect, but it feels like if we adjust our attacking phase, finding our players in their best positions like we're normally quite good at, then we'll go out in the second half and win the game.

Manager Stephen Robinson reveals the Dons changed their away-day preparation, the same routine that won them all their away cup games: leaving later instead of sitting in a hotel all day, dinner at Cormack Park and a walk-through of shape on matchday. But Robinson insists the real reason is simpler: "the players produced a really good performance." He also talks belief in a squad going through big turnover, and warns there will be "bumps in the road" as the rebuild takes shape. Stephen Robinson Post Match Interview (Motherwell 0-4 Aberdeen): We did, for all the away cup games, which we won all of them. And we changed the preparation here. We leave a little bit later, instead of being at a hotel all day on the Monday, usually a Friday when you're travelling. We have our dinner at Cormack Park, and we went out and walked through some shape today, so they're not staying in the rooms all day, which isn't normal, you don't do that at home. So is that the reason we won? No. The reason is because the players produced a really good performance tonight. Have you got a good feeling about it, what you're seeing in training and now what you're seeing on the park? Yeah. And I won't get carried away, I've been in this game too long to do that, but I've got a belief in the squad. I believe it'll take a little bit of time to get where we want to go. As I say, I know what goes on in the background in terms of the amount of players that have left and the amount that have come in. And there's going to be bumps in the road, but I've got a belief in the group of boys that we've brought in.

Robinson says he "only found out tonight", and insists his players deserve all the credit for the win as he blocks out the noise during a period of transition at the club. The Aberdeen manager credits his players, not himself, for sticking to the game plan of protecting the middle of the pitch and pushing play onto the outsides in a home win over Motherwell. He also gives his first reaction to chief executive Alan's decision to leave the club, saying he only found out about it after the match. Aberdeen have announced that the CEO departs for family reasons, after three-and-half years in the role. Chairman Dave Cormack said: "It goes without saying that Alan leaves with our very best wishes. Personally, I've enjoyed working with Alan, who has been a lead-from-the-front chief executive and someone who has put his heart and soul into the role. "The club is in a much better commercial position because of his leadership. Thanks to Alan's drive, determination and enthusiasm, we've made significant strides in many areas, most notably fan engagement, creating a stronger platform on which to build for the future. Aberdeen now search for a new chief executive. Stephen Robinson Post Match Interview Transcript (Motherwell vs Aberdeen): Yeah, it's my job to ignore the noise, and I know the changes that are going on at this football club and the amount of transition there is. It's not going to be straightforward, it's a huge challenge. So I have to keep the players believing in what they're doing, and I've seen the belief. Winning games gives you belief, and they've managed to do that. You could see them growing into the game, and the amount of times they broke, it could have been more, with good passing and lots of penetration as well.

Despite Motherwell's first-half possession, the Dons were clinical. Gavin Molloy opened the scoring from the edge of the box, Connor Ronan made it two early in the second half, a third arrived on the counterattack, and captain Kevin Nisbet rounded off the 4-0 win with a finish in off the post. A ruthless afternoon in Lanarkshire, and the perfect way for Robinson's side to head back up the road to Pittodrie. Motherwell 0-4 Aberdeen Full Match Report Transcript: Motherwell nil, Aberdeen four. Yes, you heard it right. The Dons handed the home side a lesson in finishing here. For all Motherwell's possession in the first half, it was Aberdeen who took the lead. Gavin Molloy with a shot from the edge of the box into the bottom of the net to give the Dons the lead at the break. Sixty seconds into the second half, Connor Ronan hit a vicious right-foot shot. It took a little deflection, deceived the Motherwell goalkeeper, and suddenly Stephen Robinson's side were two-nothing up. As Motherwell pressed looking to get back into the game, there was a counterattack. Au Malua [NAME UNCLEAR - VERIFY] was the man who got on the end of it, steadied himself at the edge of the box and hit a blistering right-foot shot into the roof of the net. And that was it. All three points were going Aberdeen's way, and the icing on the cake, really: a long, hopeful ball through, and there was Kevin Nisbet to steady himself and just guide the ball past the Motherwell goalkeeper, in off the post, to make it four-nothing. Bad day at the office for Motherwell here at Fir Park, but for Stephen Robinson, what a week: semi-finals of the Premier Sports Cup and a big three points here in Lanarkshire to take back up the road to Pittodrie. Finished: Motherwell nil, Aberdeen four.

Rangers vs Aberdeen in the Premiership Sports Cup semi-final at Hampden Park. Will Rangers hammer Aberdeen or has Stephen Robinson's side showing signs of "something"? The panel turn to the other Premier Sports Cup quarter-final: Aberdeen beating Kilmarnock on penalties to reach the semis. Stephen Robinson gets credit and Aberdeen's fans were magnificent - but the story is Kilmarnock's shocking spot-kicks and the growing pressure on Neil McCann, with the panel asking if he's the next manager out the door. WAS THE PENALTY SHOOTOUT A TURNING POINT? Kevin Nisbet leading Aberdeen by example, Aberdeen's brilliant dink penalty, and why McCann's Kilmarnock takers - "they never put their foot through any of them" - left the Killie fans raging. IS NEIL McCANN UNDER REAL PRESSURE? Bottom of the league, 13 goals shipped in four games, and a brutal run of fixtures to come. The panel debate whether McCann needs a result at Hibs or he could be at the door - and why the board should back him over the next five games.

Callum McGregor overplayed and unsupported, a midfield with "no dig", a side that's "no longer a possession team" against good opponents, a back line that's "murder" - and a board that "banked the £12.5m and told the fans, shut it, we'll do it our way". IS IT O'NEILL'S FAULT OR THE BOARD'S? The panel argue O'Neill has been "derailed by the board" and left short of quality - he got the team selection wrong (the goalkeeper, Tounekti over Hassan) but he's "not tactically inept". Why the Europa League could expose Celtic again. WHAT NEXT FOR CELTIC?

The panel go in on Celtic after the 3-0 Old Firm defeat to Rangers - no longer a possession team against good sides, a back line that's "murder", and a board that "banked the £12.5m and told the fans shut it, we'll do it our way". They warn it'll be exposed again in the Europa League. Transcript: Sam Johnstone. I thought it was a big call. We didn't think he should have played him. He's he's put himself in a position now, by the way, Martin, with that with that with that call. Absolutely. I was at Perth. I looked at Tounekti. He he beats a man and then he can't. There's no end product. There's no end product with them at all. And sometimes when he comes in, he's a chance to shoot. He doesn't opt for it. So you you had to look at the team and you say to yourself, are they a possession team? Couldn't get the ball out the back. Couldn't couldn't take a high press. And remember by way Rangers tried a high press against Motherwell passed through them. So they couldn't they couldn't get high press, couldn't get a grip of the midfield, couldn't change the tactics when they realize Rangers are in overload in the middle of the park. And the other thing that killed them stone dead, which is something which will happen in the Europa League coming up is their backline is murder and they had a full summer to go and spend it on players. But what have they done? They've banked the 12 and a half million pounds and they've told the fans, "Shut it. We'll do it our way." And that's your result. When they come up against good teams, they get battered and they got their just rewards there. Uh they're just desserts against Rangers because they get battered because they've got an inept back line and they're playing players out of position and the midfield is no longer a possession based midfield. It's it's that's that that's the reality. And by the way, it could flip at home. They could go and and beat Rangers on Sunda https://www.youtube.com/embed/IEXa6c77iWo 104 2026-09-14T21:01:21+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/it-was-an-absolute-tanking-tam-mcmanus-old-firm-reaction-celticfc-rangers-KSpwRszyVK8 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KSpwRszyVK8/maxresdefault.jpg "It was an ABSOLUTE TANKING!" - Tam McManus' Old Firm reaction #celticfc #rangers Rangers 'bullied' Celtic from start to finish as McInnes gets tactics spot on - Tam McManus breaks down how Derek McInnes' tactics won Rangers their 3-0 win over Celtic, from Penrice's midfield overload to Gassama exploiting the space left out wide against Donovan. He argues Rangers dominated throughout and could easily have scored five or six. Rangers bullied Celtic from start to finish as Derek McInnes got his tactics spot on in a 3-0 Old Firm win in the Premier Sports Cup at Ibrox - the panel on how Rangers dominated the champions. Transcript: Yeah, I just thought Rangers bullied Celtic from start to finish. I think that Derek got his tactics spot on. He surprised Celtic by pushing Penrose in one in the middle of the park, creating overload in there. Went man for man at the back. He had three real athletes there at the back, McKenna, Fernandez, and Sterling. And I think the guys dominated Celtics front three. And with Penrose going inside, it left a big gap there for Gassama to peel out. And they just pulled it out of Gassama. He ran at Donovan all day. And I thought that's where the game was won and lost. I thought that in that area Rangers dominated. I thought the front two for Rangers got after Celtics back back too. I thought they they held the ball up. Naderi when McGregor was dropped in dropped into him. I just thought tactically from start to finish, Rangers were brilliant and they thoroughly deserved to to win three nothing. Like as Alex said, I could have been five or six. It was an absolute tanking and uh and the Celtic supporters will be concerned at that performance. But if you're a Ranger supporter and you doubted Derek McInnes...

A big test to come next Sunday. Martin O'Neill Post Match (Rangers vs Celtic): Did did that surprise you? Um not. And I didn't. You mean us being second best? Yeah. Well, I think I think it is. I think that you can go on. You can win uh you can win some games which we've been doing domestically. It's been and fine. We keep we found a way to win a couple of matches uh which were difficult for us. I felt you know St Johnstone and St Mirren games were but um yeah yeah yeah we were um beaten today but uh yeah did Rangers surprise me no I think they're I think they're strong I think they're physically physically strong and uh yeah so it'll be a big test for us next Sunday. Again in every aspect you said that Rangers didn't surprise you in terms of their commitment effort levels but were you surprised that they went with three at the back and you think not not necessary Yeah, I think you have to yeah, you have to be able to deal with it. You deal with um any sort of permutation that the opposition put in front of you. That's their their their prerogative to do exactly that. And uh so yeah, we I don't I'm not so sure it's always to do about systems. That's uh sometimes it sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. But if you do misplace a lot of passes, you know, when you're comforted when you have comfortable possession, I don't think that's good to do with with the systems. myself I think and we did misplace a lot of passes today um when we were comfortable when and choosing the wrong option when we were on the counterattack.

Sam Johnstone wasn't the only Celtic player that found it difficult today. Why why did you opt for him and what does this mean for you going forward? No, my point was to you I think on on Friday. I want people to uh experience these games because what what other way am I going to learn about about what people can or cannot do? What I don't want to do is just put people in so that I can learn something from it. The main object is obviously to try and win and it's a fine balancing act for me.

Martin O'Neill Transcript: (Rangers v Celtic) My next question is that why you were unable to create such few opportunities? We didn't. That that's true. You know, we didn't do and the uh that's you know that's a bit of a surprise to me. The one thing that I felt and I I think I've been saying to you for weeks certainly domestically we uh look as if we can create. So it didn't materialize today. And so we have to look I have to try and um find out the reasons why. So I I'm just at this minute I'm naturally disappointed, really disappointed about it, but we've got to gather ourselves together because the games are coming thick and fast for us. Martin, you made one change at the break. Were you tempted to make more, especially a couple of boys in on your elbows. It could have changed. Um, uh, me personally, I think that, uh, young Colby Donovan has come out of this with great credit. I think he's an absolute warrior. Sometimes we, you know, we misplaced passes, but he's got a big heart. I think we can all learn from that. And because of the size of his heart, he was he was booked in the first half, but he he kept going right to the end. He was booked against St Mirren after about eight or nine minutes. Still kept going until uh and he's he's been in terms of heart and desire. Need a new kit for your team? Get 10% off Hummel teamwear right now. Click the link and use code PLZSOCCER10 when you order.

The Celtic manager admits his side were "second best", calls it a "wake-up call", and says the response starts with him - with a European tie and the return Old Firm at Celtic Park next Sunday to come. WHAT WENT WRONG FOR CELTIC? O'Neill on failing to capitalise in the first half, misplacing passes in comfortable possession, choosing the wrong option on the counter, and creating very little against a physically strong Rangers - "a bit of a surprise" from a side he says has looked creative domestically. 'A WAKE-UP CALL' - AND LOOKING AT HIMSELF FIRST Why the importance of the fixture has to be matched on the pitch, why he'll look at himself before the team, and how quickly Celtic must regroup with games coming thick and fast. THE SELECTION CALLS: SAM JOHNSTONE AND HASSAN O'Neill explains wanting players to experience these games to learn what they can do, the fine balance between that and winning, and reveals Haissem Hassan was left out after an overnight problem left him short of sleep. STRUCTURAL WORRIES AND THE ROAD BACK On whether it's a one-off bad day or a deeper structural issue off the ball, getting back to dominating possession, players who were "well below par", and relishing the chance to put it right in front of Celtic's own crowd next Sunday.

Derek McInnes reaction Derek McInnes' full press conference after Rangers beat Celtic 3-0 in the Premier Sports Cup Old Firm quarter-final at Ibrox - a statement win that takes Rangers into the semi-finals. McInnes on the performance "that was required", the captain's two brilliant goals, owning the recent European defeat ("we weren't ready"), his tactical calls, the dressing-room spirit, and the honesty about the pressure of managing Rangers. WHAT DID DEREK McINNES SAY AFTER RANGERS 3-0 CELTIC? The Rangers boss on setting up to expose Celtic in 1v1s and tap into a 50,000 Ibrox crowd, scoring good goals at good times, and why individual performances win derbies more than tactics. THE CAPTAIN'S BRACE AND THE TACTICAL CALLS McInnes on his captain's two stunning goals, the midfield balance with Nico Raskin and James Penrose, moving Penrose into midfield, and the two strikers' pressing work (with Ryan Naderi playing through a dead leg alongside Kevin Kelsy). OWNING THE LAST DEFEAT - AND THE PRESSURE "We weren't ready." McInnes takes responsibility for a lackluster European display in the Czech Republic, reflects on the turnaround, the criticism that comes even when winning, and admits "it can be tough working for Rangers" - with the return Old Firm at Celtic Park to come.

Nobody saw it coming - Derek McInnes got his tactics spot on with a back three, Dan Neil ran the midfield, and Celtic were toothless with just one shot on target. The panel weigh the heavy questions now facing Martin O'Neill, the goalkeeper call that backfired, and the goals that settled it. WHY WERE RANGERS SO GOOD - AND CELTIC SO POOR? McInnes' side won every 1v1, controlled the midfield and took full advantage of a bouncing Ibrox. Celtic couldn't gain a foothold and managed only one shot on target - a worrying sign for a team with that much attacking talent. WHAT'S GONE WRONG FOR MARTIN O'NEILL? The selection calls under the microscope: Sam Johnstone starting over Viljami Sinisalo and looking shaky, Tounekti in ahead of Haissem Hassan, and a back line that's been exposed all season. O'Neill on learning the lessons before a European tie and the return Old Firm at Parkhead. THE GOALS AND THE SEMI-FINAL DRAW The captain's brace - including a sublime second - and Kevin Kelsy's first Rangers goal since his big-money move. Plus the semi-final draw: Rangers face Aberdeen, and there's an Edinburgh derby at Hampden.

The big team news: Martin O'Neill hands Sam Johnstone the gloves ahead of Viljami Sinisalo - a "kick in the teeth" for the keeper who's starred all season - while Derek McInnes leaves Bojan Miovski out. Both line-ups, the match-winners, and why a derby with no away fans feels like a "diet Old Firm." O'NEILL'S SHOCK KEEPER CALL Why starting Sam Johnstone over Viljami Sinisalo for an Old Firm cup tie is such a statement, what it means for Sinisalo after a brilliant season, and how Johnstone's Premier League and England experience stacks up for a baptism of fire at Ibrox. BOTH LINE-UPS AND THE MIOVSKI SNUB The full Celtic XI with Tounekti getting the nod ahead of Haissem Hassan, Rangers' settled back four and the Dan Neil-Nico Raskin midfield, and the surprise call to leave out Bojan Miovski after his late St Mirren winner. ARE CELTIC TOO GOOD FOR RANGERS? The verdict: more proven attacking quality, the Martin O'Neill big-game factor and a core of McGregor, Johnstone and Tierney - can Rangers' front men find a match-winner, or do Celtic have too much?

The Kilmarnock boss admits it was a golden opportunity missed - his side had the extra man in extra time and didn't take it - refuses to blame his penalty takers ("anybody can miss penalties"), and demands a response: "I really hope they're hurt." WHY IS THIS SCOTTISH LEAGUE CUP EXIT SO PAINFUL FOR KILMARNOCK? McCann on the "very cruel way to lose a game", why the bigger disappointment is failing to punish a 10-man Aberdeen, and the message he gave his players in extra time: move the ball quick and take individual responsibility. CAN KILMARNOCK BOUNCE BACK? With a trip to Hibs next, McCann says professional sport gives you no time to wallow - he wants his players hurt, but ready to recover fast, and backs himself and his staff to lead them out of it.

The Dons boss, under pressure with the fans, praises the character of his 10-man side, hails his goalkeeper's three great saves ("he did the team talk for me"), and insists it was always going to take time: "anybody that thought there was going to be an instant hit here is wrong." WHAT DOES THE RESULT SAY ABOUT ABERDEEN'S CHARACTER? Robinson on the turnaround job, the 14 summer signings needed after losing nearly 16 from the squad he inherited, and a side that showed character, quality and tactical discipline with 10 men. ROBINSON ANSWERS THE CRITICS "You don't get 500 games if you're not sure what you're doing." Robinson on the criticism coming his way, the belief in the dressing room, and why it will take two or three windows to get where Aberdeen want to go - and whether he'll be given the time.

Kilmarnock 1-1 Aberdeen (Aberdeen win 3-1 on penalties) at Rugby Park - shootout drama and a big result for Stephen Robinson. Kilmarnock v Aberdeen Scottish League Cup Match Report Transcript: Aberdeen booked their place in the semi-finals of the Premier Sports Cup after winning a penalty shootout against Kilmarnock. Kilmarnock missed three penalties, so poor from 12 yards out. And Jack Milne stepped up with the decisive penalty to send the Dons through into the last four. In the second half of the game, it was the Dons who actually took the lead in this match. A brilliant header back across goal from Kevin Nisbet put them one nil up. And then there was a crazy 60 seconds for Stephen Robinson's side. Daniel Happe was given a second yellow card, a red card, sent off for a tackle on Joe Hugel as he was bearing in on goal. And within that 60 seconds, a free kick floated into the box, found Tyrese John-Jules to equalise for Kilmarnock. And from there it was 11 against 10. Kilmarnock really couldn't threaten the Dons goal and it went to extra time. And there was a great opportunity for Aberdeen to win it, with three, four gilt-edged opportunities within about the space of 30 seconds. But somehow, Kilmarnock managed to clear the danger. And then after 120 minutes, it went to spot-kicks. And Neil McCann will be absolutely furious with the standard of his penalty kick-takers. But for Aberdeen, they won't mind. They've won it in the penalty shootout. They're in the last four. The only problem I have to say is a pitch invasion from the Aberdeen fans, which I am certain will get them in trouble. But for the Dons fans who were watching from the stands, they know now that they can look forward to a semi-final in the Premier Sports Cup. Finished here, Aberdeen going through in a penalty shootout win after it finished 1-1 after 120 minutes.

We get stuck into a heated debate on whether Celtic are actually good enough going into Sunday's Premier Sports Cup quarter-final against Rangers - the 35 crosses that led to one goal, the back four they don't trust, a big goalkeeper call, and the pace that could be Celtic's difference-maker at Ibrox. ARE CELTIC A "TOOTHLESS TIGER"? Over 35 crosses into the box and only a 1-0 win, with St Johnstone creating clear chances of their own. The panel ask whether that lack of end product is a real worry before an Old Firm cup tie - and why opponents are starting to fancy their chances against Celtic. THE TEAM SELECTION THAT DECIDES THE OLD FIRM Real doubts over the back four, a debate about who has to lead the line and give Celtic someone "to hit", and how Celtic set up to handle Rangers coming flying out of the blocks at Ibrox. THE GOALKEEPER CALL: SAM JOHNSTONE OR SINISALO? Talk that Sam Johnstone could come in from the start - a "brave shout" and, the panel say, "a kick in the teeth to Sinisalo". Alan Rough tells the cautionary tale of Celtic throwing in a keeper before an Old Firm and the famous 5-1 at Ibrox, and what being dropped does to a goalkeeper's head. CELTIC'S DIFFERENCE-MAKER Why Haissem Hassan's pace - once he's fully fit after a stop-start start to life at Celtic - could be the weapon Rangers' defenders least want to face.

Team news for both sides, a frank verdict on the thug culture ruining Scottish football, the case for league reconstruction, and a look ahead to the Old Firm. Have your say live in the comments. ARE McCANN AND ROBINSON UNDER PRESSURE? Both managers need results to calm the nerves. Peter goes through both line-ups, the puzzling Nicky Devlin snub at Aberdeen, whether Stephen Robinson is being backed by the board, and why four league games is too soon to judge - plus David Gray easing the heat at Hibs with a win at Ross County. HOW DO WE STOP THE OLD FIRM THUGS RUINING THE GAME? A blunt take on the balaclava-wearing minority wrecking grounds and away days: ban them for good, use the CCTV that's already there, and stop handing them blocks of seats.

Predictions, the Celtic back four Rangers can target, how the Ibrox crowd could swing it, both line-ups, the match-winner odds and your shouts. HAS THE OLD FIRM ATMOSPHERE BEEN "STERILISED"? With no away support at Ibrox and a full year of one-way derbies, the panel argue the colour, emotion and rivalry are being drained out of the fixture - "thug culture", cut allocations and a game they say is nowhere near what it used to be. But is there still room for good, honest rivalry and banter? WHO WINS RANGERS v CELTIC? THE PREDICTIONS The panel split: Rangers backed for home advantage and momentum, Celtic backed as the better side "in every department" with more quality in the final third. Does taking the crowd out of it change everything? THE CELTIC BACK FOUR RANGERS CAN TARGET Real doubts over Celtic's defence - Donovan, Carter-Vickers' fitness, and who partners whom at the back. The panel reckon that back four "can be got at", and Rangers will look to go right at it. HOW BIG A FACTOR IS THE IBROX CROWD? Sink or swim: why the first 15-20 minutes are crucial, how players who've never experienced an Old Firm cope, and the psychology of hearing the moans and groans if it doesn't start well. TEAM NEWS, THE MATCH-WINNER AND YOUR SHOUTS Both suggested line-ups, the Kevin Kelsy or Bojan Miovski call up front, Miovski's match-winner odds, and your predictions read out live.

Peter Martin, Alan Rough, Gordon Parks and Tom McManus dig into Rangers' narrow 1-0 win over St Mirren and ask what it really tells us ahead of Sunday's Premier Sports Cup quarter-final against Celtic at Ibrox. Bojan Miovski's late winner, Derek McInnes under pressure, the penalty St Mirren were denied, and whether Rangers are genuinely improving or just winning ugly - the panel don't hold back. WERE RANGERS LUCKY TO BEAT ST MIRREN? Rangers won it late through Bojan Miovski, but the panel weren't convinced by the performance - dominated for long spells of the second half, wasteful in the first, and reliant on a moment of quality. The debate: is grinding out one-nil wins a warning sign, or exactly the winning habit Derek McInnes needs before an Old Firm cup tie? WHO IS BOJAN MIOVSKI AND WHY DOES HIS GOAL MATTER? Miovski was "the man furthest out the door" - on the fringes behind Shankland and Chermiti - before popping up to win it. The panel explain why a natural finisher stepping up could be a turning point for Rangers' season, and how the goal itself (a goalkeeper's launch, Ryan Naderi's flick-on, a cool finish) was a throwback to old-school target-man football. DID ST MIRREN DESERVE A PENALTY? (AND THE SFA) There's a growing feeling - the panel say even within the SFA - that St Mirren should have had a first-half penalty. Alan Rough agrees they were hard done by, links it to a run of similar calls, and revisits the Emmanuel Fernandez incident from last season. Same excuses again? ARE RANGERS GOOD ENOUGH TO BEAT CELTIC? With Celtic to come, the panel weigh Rangers' midweek display against the bigger picture - the midfield authority question, the "landscape has changed" argument that other teams now travel to Ibrox and Parkhead with real bravery, and o https://www.youtube.com/embed/cm5FhxSSy8c 643 2026-09-12T10:00:07+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/the-football-show-y6ZMyWKMu30 2026-09-11T18:20:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/y6ZMyWKMu30/maxresdefault.jpg Old Firm Derbies Need EMOTION and RIVALRY | The Football Show LIVE Rangers vs Celtic in Premier Sports Cup - The Football Show previews a huge Old Firm Premier Sports Cup quarter-final, with Rangers hosting Celtic at Ibrox in front of no away fans. The panel debate whether the atmosphere and emotion is being drained out of the fixture, react to Rangers' narrow midweek win over St Mirren and Bojan Miovski's late goal, discuss a contentious no-penalty decision and the SFA, weigh up Celtic's big goalkeeper call, and get stuck into the growing pressure on three managers, with Stephen Robinson at Aberdeen firmly in the firing line. DO OLD FIRM DERBIES STILL HAVE THE EMOTION AND RIVALRY? With no away fans at Ibrox, the panel debate whether the colour, noise and rivalry that make the Old Firm special are being stripped away, and what a derby with no visiting support actually does to the occasion. CAN RANGERS KNOCK CELTIC OUT OF THE CUP? Fresh off a late 1-0 win over St Mirren, secured by forgotten man Bojan Miovski, the panel assess whether Derek McInnes has real momentum, who Celtic play in goal between Viljami Sinisalo and Sam Johnstone, and who the potential match-winners are. WHICH MANAGER GETS SACKED FIRST? Neil McCann, Stephen Robinson and David Gray are all under pressure. The panel argue whether they deserve time, with a frank verdict on Stephen Robinson at Aberdeen, why the fans have turned, and whether he can ever be the manager he was at Motherwell.

The Old Firm battle it out at Ibrox to progress in the Premier Sports Cup, but which team will win? Also, Lewis Ferguson transfer rumours to Rangers intensify and why Celtic keep getting weaker each season (regardless of who they sign and how much they spend). Will Rangers knock Celtic out of the cup? The Journos give their Old Firm predictions ahead of the Premier Sports Cup tie at Ibrox, and get stuck into why Celtic seem to get weaker every season despite their spending. The panel dismiss the Lewis Ferguson-to-Rangers transfer rumour as "a nonsense story", break down Celtic's transfer dysfunction and lost European ambition, and split on who progresses in the Old Firm. WILL RANGERS BEAT CELTIC IN THE CUP? The panel are divided: one backs Rangers to knock Celtic out at Ibrox, calling it a huge boost for Derek McInnes, while others fancy Celtic's firepower to edge a high-scoring tie despite defensive weaknesses. IS THE LEWIS FERGUSON TRANSFER REAL? The Journos don't buy it, arguing Rangers won't spend 15-20 million on any player, that Ferguson isn't the match-winning profile they need, and that the story has been talked up by his father Derek Ferguson. WHY DO CELTIC KEEP GETTING WEAKER? The panel argue Celtic are regressing, pointing to transfer dysfunction, board members doing the negotiations, a 12 million profit while "not spending a penny", and a lack of European ambition since the 2003 UEFA Cup final.

McLeish said he was very proud of the group, felt they deserved a draw, and praised goalkeeper Jacob Chapman's strongest performance of the season, revealing St Mirren are trying to push him towards a national-team call-up.

Substitute Bojan Miovski, the forgotten man among Rangers' strikers, pounced on a Ryan Naderi flick to chip Jacob Chapman and snatch all three points, moving Rangers up to second, as McInnes admitted his side battered St Mirren in a wasteful first half before riding out a strong spell from the visitors. HOW BAD ARE THE SHANKLAND AND YOKOTA INJURIES? McInnes confirmed captain Lawrence Shankland will have hamstring surgery in London to reduce the risk of a recurrence, adding a few weeks to his recovery, and revealed Daiki Yokota is also having a groin operation after tearing the muscle off the tendon, ruling him out for around two to three months. With Youssef Chermiti also sidelined, Rangers are down to three fit strikers ahead of Sunday's Old Firm. WHO SCORED THE WINNER FOR RANGERS? Substitute Bojan Miovski scored the late winner, latching on to a Ryan Naderi flick to chip St Mirren goalkeeper Jacob Chapman. McInnes praised Miovski's professionalism and calibre, and hailed goalkeeper Ivor Pandur for a crucial second-half save. WHAT DID McINNES SAY ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE? McInnes felt Rangers deserved the win, having "battered" St Mirren in the first half without scoring, but admitted his side made too many poor decisions during a 20-minute spell when Craig McLeish's impressive St Mirren were on top.

Martin O'Neill admits his side "made it look very difficult" as they added pace in the second half to break down stubborn St Johnstone and keep their strong start to the season going. O'Neill praised a crucial save from Celtic goalkeeper Sam Johnstone, and is happy with the volume of crosses his side delivered. He also pays tribute to a St Johnstone team he says are just as impressive as St Mirren. WHAT DID MARTIN O'NEILL SAY AFTER CELTIC BEAT ST JOHNSTONE? O'Neill felt Celtic controlled the ball but needed more bodies in the box early on, credited a big Sam Johnstone save as an important moment, and said his team grew into the game with more pace after the break to get the goal and see it out. He was pleased with 35 crosses into the box and how confidently Celtic defended late on. WERE CELTIC SURPRISED BY ST JOHNSTONE? Not at all, said O'Neill, who had watched St Johnstone impress against Kilmarnock and Hibernian and compared them to a St Mirren side that pushed Celtic all the way at the weekend.

The panel react to the news that Rangers captain Lawrence Shankland faces up to four months out with a hamstring tear, ask who now leads and scores the goals for Derek McInnes, and get stuck into a fiery argument about whether football's obsession with data and set-piece coaches is genius or "a complete bluff". Plus Celtic's transfer dysfunction, the Old Firm and cup-weekend predictions, and the three managers whose jobs could be on the line. HOW BAD IS THE SHANKLAND INJURY FOR RANGERS? The panel say Shankland's hamstring tear, which could keep him out for around four months, is a hammer blow for Derek McInnes, costing Rangers their captain and main goal threat just as he found form. With Youssef Chermiti also injured, they question whether Ryan Naderi, Kevin Kelsy or new signing Bouanani can score the goals, and who now provides leadership in the biggest games. IS FOOTBALL'S DATA OBSESSION A CON? In the episode's fieriest exchange, Gordon Parks argues that much of modern football analytics and the rise of set-piece coaches is "a complete bluff" and "the emperor's new clothes", while Peter Martin and Graeme McGarry make the case that data and specialists like set-piece coaches deliver the small margins that win games. They debate Jamestown Analytics, Arne Engels' 22 million pound move to West Ham, and why managers who have played the game still trust the eye test. WHICH MANAGERS ARE UNDER PRESSURE THIS WEEKEND?

The Football Show LIVE (Part 2) Alex Rae has welcomed the SFA plans for a pathway for young Scottish talent to play first team football, but has reservations about the big clubs embracing the strategy. The Football Show panel returns for Part 2, with Peter Martin joined by Alan Rough, Alex Rae and Tam McManus to debate whether Aberdeen are living on past glories, why so few young Scottish players are getting a game, and the SFA's new plan to force clubs to develop them. The show opens with a frank discussion of Aberdeen's self-image as Scotland's "third biggest club" more than 40 years on from Sir Alex Ferguson, before moving on to Neil McCann's Kilmarnock, the Dundee United and Falkirk relegation picture, Livingston's decision to sack their manager after just 98 days, and a big debate on the SFA's under-21 proposals and whether the Scottish league is simply too small. ARE ABERDEEN LIVING ON PAST GLORIES? The panel debate whether Aberdeen fans still expecting to be Scotland's third force are living off the Ferguson era, pointing out that a whole generation of supporters do not even remember Fergie's team, that Alex Smith was the last manager to come close, and that the expectation to run Celtic and Rangers close simply is not being met on the pitch. WHAT ARE THE SFA'S NEW UNDER-21 PROPOSALS? Ahead of the November AGM, the SFA are proposing that two under-21 Scotland-eligible players must start in every Scottish Cup and Premier Sports Cup tie (with one on the pitch at all times), and that clubs field an under-21 Scot for an average of 60 minutes per league game, roughly six per cent of available minutes. The panel admire the intent but doubt it will pass, arguing self-interest will win and that the real problem, a league that is too small, was not even discussed. WHY WON'T CLUBS PLAY YOUNG SCOTTISH PLAYERS? The panel argue Scottish football is a negative, results-first league where managers on one and two-year deals cannot risk young players, where clubs cherry-pick from England instead of promo https://www.youtube.com/embed/G-Gt5PN4pWM 2026-09-07T16:35:23+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/the-football-show-R1o_cPlu2ho 2026-09-08T18:40:08+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/R1o_cPlu2ho/maxresdefault.jpg Cup win or bust for David Gray + Can ANYONE stop Celtic? | The Football Show LIVE (Part 1) Tam McManus believes David Gray must defeat Ross County in the cup this weekend or face the sack at Hibs. Alex Rae reckons Gassama could be a big player for Rangers against Celtic. Roughie says Dons fans are living in the past. The Football Show is live, with Peter Martin joined by Alan Rough, Alex Rae and Tam McManus to review a big weekend in Scottish football. On the agenda: a worrying hamstring injury to Rangers captain Lawrence Shankland, three managers already feeling the heat barely into September, Rangers grinding out a 1-0 win over Motherwell, a hugely impressive St Mirren pushing Celtic all the way at 1-2, the VAR offside calls in Paisley, and whether anyone can stop Celtic's perfect start. WHICH SCOTTISH MANAGERS ARE UNDER PRESSURE? With Livingston having already sacked their manager after 98 days, the panel assess the growing heat on Neil McCann at Kilmarnock, Stephen Robinson at Aberdeen and David Gray at Hibs, and mount a defence of all three, arguing that supporters, not boards, now get managers sacked, and that knee-jerk, social-media-driven reactions are killing patience in the Scottish game. HOW BIG A BLOW IS THE SHANKLAND INJURY FOR RANGERS? The panel react to Lawrence Shankland's hamstring injury, suffered just minutes into Rangers' 1-0 win over Motherwell, fearing a repeat of the problem that sidelined him at Hearts, and debate whether Derek McInnes has enough firepower with Kevin Kelsy and Ryan Naderi, who scored the winner after an Alex Paulsen error. CAN ANYONE STOP CELTIC? After Celtic made it five wins from five with a hard-fought 2-1 victory at St Mirren, the panel praise a brilliant St Mirren side under Craig McLeish, break down the VAR offside decisions, and debate whether Hearts or Rangers are the only teams who can realistically challenge Martin O'Neill's side at the top.

O'Neill said Celtic will miss the in-form winger, who scored the goal that won it before picking up a knock, and admitted his side were "well and truly second best" for a spell in the first half before their second-half energy turned the game. He also delivered a glowing tribute to Liam Scales and took aim at the VAR offside technology in Paisley. WHY WILL CELTIC MISS YANG? Yang scored the winner but was taken off after a knock, having looked shaken up. O'Neill said Celtic will miss the winger while he is out, calling it "really disappointing" given he is in "really fine form", and praised his work rate and willingness to do the hard graft. WHY DID O'NEILL PRAISE LIAM SCALES? O'Neill said "I don't know what the club would do without him", highlighting how the centre-half has repeatedly played out of position, his "massive heart", his equaliser and the pass that set up Yang's winner. WHAT DID O'NEILL SAY ABOUT VAR? O'Neill mocked the offside technology, saying the lines "were not properly calibrated" and that he had "never seen so many cricket lines" in his life, though he admitted he would be more unhappy had Celtic not won. O'Neill also praised St Mirren for causing Celtic plenty of problems, and backed young signings Mika Baur and Haissem Hassan to come good as they adjust to the intensity of Scottish football.

Celtic came from behind to beat St Mirren 2-1 in Paisley, recovering from a first-half penalty to grind out all three points in a hard-fought Scottish Premiership battle. Liam Scales conceded the spot-kick but made amends with the equaliser, before Yang put Celtic ahead, and a late St Mirren goal was ruled out for offside after a long VAR check. Great credit to Craig McLeish's St Mirren, who made a real game of it. St Mirren vs Celtic Highlights Transcript: St Mirren 1, Celtic 2, in a thoroughly entertaining game here in Paisley, and that was very much down to the home side, who made a real game of this. They took the lead in the first half: Chris Mochrie's shot was blocked by the arm of Liam Scales and the referee pointed to the spot. Up stepped Nikolas Agrafiotis and he scored to give St Mirren a half-time lead. The fightback from Celtic was started by Liam Scales six minutes into the second half: Nygren's corner, the glancing header, and Celtic were level. And then Ryan Carr was caught in possession in the middle of the park, and that allowed Celtic to race away. Yang picked his spot and put Celtic into the lead. There was a suggestion that VAR and the offside weren't working properly in this game. There was a long wait to see if Mheuka's goal was going to stand deep into injury time. The referee eventually ruled it out for offside. But nonetheless, Celtic come away from Paisley with all three points in a hard-fought battle. Great credit to Craig McLeish's side, they really made a game of this and played some really nice football, but Celtic in the end were able to grind it out. It finished St Mirren 1, Celtic 2.

McInnes confirmed Shankland's problem feels similar to the hamstring injury that kept him out for three months at Hearts last January, leaving Rangers without both of their main strikers, as Youssef Chermiti is also sidelined. With his forward line stretched, McInnes praised the "shrewd" deadline-day signing of Kevin Kelsy, who made his debut, and the bench impact of the matchwinner. HOW LONG IS LAWRENCE SHANKLAND OUT FOR? McInnes said Shankland will be scanned on Monday and did not want to speculate, but admitted it feels similar and in the same area to the hamstring injury that sidelined him for three months at Hearts. The striker picked it up without contact after a high-output game on Wednesday, and looks set for a spell on the sidelines. WHY IS THE KEVIN KELSY SIGNING SO IMPORTANT NOW? With both Shankland and Chermiti injured, McInnes said the deadline-day arrival of Kelsy looks even more significant and credited the club for the business. Kelsy made his debut but was not risked off the bench after only five minutes, having felt stiff and tight in training, to protect the number-nine position. HOW DID RANGERS WIN IT? McInnes felt the 1-0 scoreline flattered Motherwell, praising his side's clean sheet, organisation and persistence, the spark Minsu Kim has added to the attack, and a man-of-the-match midfield display driving the press. His only frustration was not adding a second goal.

Stephen Robinson Post Match Interview Transcript: Another frustrating day in the office, Stephen. How would you sum that one up? A frustrating day, a tired performance. We looked jaded after the two games in the week. It was always the fear. We tried to freshen up a little bit, and the performance just lacked energy, it lacked pace about it. We got a reaction at half-time with the changes, there was a bit more energy, but we lacked the finishing touch or the quality needed to win the game. So we got what we deserved. It was pedestrian in the first half, not what you wanted, but when you're having to change the team at half-time to get that energy, it's difficult to build the relationships you need to win the game. Yeah, but ultimately you've got to try and win the game, so we have to make these decisions. I didn't think we were going to get any more energy out of the team if we didn't make changes, and we did, we got more energy. Did we get more quality? Questionable. But it's a frustrating afternoon. The two games have caught up with us. It looked very much like it caught up with us, and we didn't have enough within the group to grind the result out. Sometimes you don't deserve it, and I don't think we deserved that today. A point was probably a fair result, but at home we have to expect better. Is the positive that your keeper played well, kept a clean sheet, so at least you're not going into the cup game with a negative? Yeah, the negative is the actual performance. As we all know, it looked hard, it looked jaded and just a little bit lacklustre, which nobody sets out to do. Sometimes you're able to grind out those results, but we're all disappointed with the performance. We're not hiding away from that. We expect the criticism tha https://www.youtube.com/embed/DTnoBIfcKNY 261 2026-09-05T17:21:25+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/we-should-have-won-neil-mccann-post-match-aberdeen-0-0-kilmarnock-9cmMZu-1mHM 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9cmMZu-1mHM/maxresdefault.jpg "We should have won" - Neil McCann Post Match | Aberdeen 0 0 Kilmarnock Watch Neil McCann's post match interview following Aberdeen 0-0 Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership. Kilmarnock manager Neil McCann says his side were the better team and should have won after a hard-fought 0-0 draw away to Aberdeen at Pittodrie in the Scottish Premiership. McCann was pleased to leave with a point on the road but felt Kilmarnock did enough to take all three, praising his players' bravery and the character they showed to answer big questions after a difficult start to the season. WHAT DID NEIL McCANN SAY AFTER ABERDEEN 0-0 KILMARNOCK? McCann said Kilmarnock were "definitely the best team", deserved more than a point, and showed a glimpse of what they are capable of. He credited new signings still bedding in, a strong week on the training ground, and the determination of a squad desperate to prove they are better than their results so far. Neil McCann post match interview transcript following Aberdeen 0-0 Kilmarnock: (...we) should have won. Yeah, I think we were definitely the best team today. We leave with a point, we're pleased with that point, but yeah, we probably deserve three. Coming to a team like Aberdeen on our travels, we can't be too disgruntled with a point. The most pleasing thing, I said to them in there, is that sometimes when there's big questions asked of you, you can answer them back positively. And I think today we showed that we're brave, getting back to a wee glimpse of what we're capable of. It's going to take a wee bit more time, because it's new players coming in and it's understanding what we demand. But my goodness, to a man, the starting eleven, the boys that came on, the boys that were desperate to come on from behind us and didn't, they had a great week this week. And I think there's a wee bit of determination there, that they want to start showing that they're better than what they've served up in terms of points. There's been glimpses of performances, but I think that was the least that we (deserved today).

Johansson felt Motherwell struggled on the ball, which turned the game into a transition battle that suited Rangers, and refused to dwell on the goal they conceded, instead crediting goalkeeper Alex Poulsen's clean-sheet form for keeping the scoreline at 1-0. WHAT DID ALFRED JOHANSSON SAY AFTER RANGERS 1-0 MOTHERWELL? Johansson congratulated Rangers, said Motherwell did not play to their usual level, especially in possession, and took the defeat on the chin as "part of the game" for a side used to doing much better. He praised keeper Alex Poulsen, who later came off with cramp. Full transcript of Alfred Johansson's post match interview | Rangers 1-0 Motherwell: Alfred, what did you make of that game today? Congratulations to Rangers, I think they were better than us today, they deserved the three points. I think we didn't play up to our best, especially not on the ball, and then the game becomes too much transitions, and Rangers are good there. So that's why the game ends the way that it does today, in my head. Were you more pleased with your first-half performance than your second-half performance, and what do you think changed between those? I think in the second half we tried to go for it a little bit more, and obviously Rangers in that moment had the lead, so it's a little bit different scenario than in the first half. To give a really good answer on that I'm going to have to watch the game back, because you take decisions as well. But over the 90 minutes today I think we were not good enough, especially on the ball. We're used to seeing this team do much better, and it's disappointing that we didn't play to our best, and it's disappointing to lose, but it's also a part of the game.

Matt McGlone #celticfc #celtic Celtic fan and 'Celts for Change' activist Matt McGlone sums up how many supporters feel about the current Celtic board: "It's almost as if they don't like the fans, but they like their money." McGlone argues the club's attitude is to "gauge your money but not your opinion", and that a setup that's become anti-fan is where the real frustration lies, from fans who love the club but just want it run with ambition. Matt McGlone on the Celtic board transcript: It's almost as if they don't like the fans, but they like their money. And the fans can feel that they've been used by that attitude, that "we'll gauge your money but not gauge your opinion". That's where the real frustrations come in just now, that the fans do love the club but they want the club to be successful. They don't want boycotts or discontent at games, because it does roll onto the park. You want to be positive rather than negative, but this current setup at Celtic seems to be anti-fan.

What do we need to do to combat Old Firm hooligans? Let us know in the comments. Full transcript: It's a snapshot of society. It's not just Celtic and Rangers, there's lower-league clubs in Scotland who've got the Balaclava Brigade coming in and causing antisocial problems, intimidating people that are just out to watch their team. There's an underbelly of supporter allowed to run rampant in Scotland, and I think it's a Scottish government issue, they have to bring legislation in. Balaclavas should be nowhere near football grounds. They have to make sure the police are in tandem with the football clubs to find solutions. There are solutions, they're paid to come up with things. The fact that our greatest spectacle, the one showcase we have in Scottish football that supersedes all and gets international coverage, is in a complete embarrassment. It's a snapshot of society, not especially the football, it's just we have an underbelly and a subculture of football fan in this country who are knuckle-draggers, and it's only going to get worse.

Aberdeen have scored just two goals in four games, none from open play, while Kilmarnock have shipped 14, their worst start to a season in their history, and arrive bottom of the table having lost their last five visits to Pittodrie. Neil McCann's side will look to striker Tyrese John-Jules, who has two goals and an assist in his last two against the Dons, while Stephen Robinson's Aberdeen need a convincing win to build confidence after last week's defeats to both halves of the Old Firm. It is also the start of a double-header, with the sides meeting again next week in the Premier Sports Cup quarter-finals. Aberdeen vs Kilmarnock Preview Transcript: It's Aberdeen v Kilmarnock here at Pittodrie: the worst attacking team so far in the league meet the worst team at the back in the four games so far this season. Aberdeen have scored two goals, and none of those goals were from open play, in the same amount of time Kilmarnock have shipped 14 goals. It's Kilmarnock's worst start to a season in their history. They come to Pittodrie bottom of the table, and it's a venue they've lost their last five meetings at. You feel if Neil McCann's side are to get anything from today's game, they'll look to striker Tyrese John-Jules, who scored two goals and got one assist in his last two games against the Dons. For Stephen Robinson's side, you just feel it needs to be a convincing victory today. As I said, they've been leaking goals, and these Aberdeen attackers need some confidence going forward in the season. It's the start of a double-header with these two teams: of course, they meet next week in the quarter-finals of the Premier Sports Cup. Aberdeen are looking to bounce back from the two defeats against both sides of the Old Firm last week, the most recent being the 3-0 defeat at Celtic Park.

Gordon Parks calls out the masked supporter groups, the "Balaclava Brigade", who he says are being allowed to run rampant, creating chaos, intimidation and destruction, and warns nothing will change until they are checked and punished. The panel debate whether this weekend's SFA summit can actually improve Scottish football, which teams are playing the game the right way, and Tam McManus tips the country's best footballing side to cause an upset. WHO ARE THE 'BALACLAVA BRIGADE' AND WHY IS IT A PROBLEM? Gordon Parks argues that masked groups of supporters are being allowed to cause chaos, intimidation and destruction unchecked, and that until the authorities properly punish them the problem will keep escalating. It is the disorder at the heart of why there are now no away fans at Old Firm games this season. CAN THE SFA SUMMIT ACTUALLY FIX SCOTTISH FOOTBALL?

Gray was angry at avoidable goals and a passive start, but proud of the players who kept going down to 10 men, and returned to a familiar frustration: Hibs are creating chances but not taking them. WHAT DID DAVID GRAY SAY AFTER THE EDINBURGH DERBY DEFEAT? Gray refused to hide from it: "I can't defend or really understand the multitude of errors that come for the self-inflicted red card." He felt Hibs were second best and deservedly behind at half-time, but after pulling a goal back he believed the momentum was with them until the sending-off changed the game. He took responsibility himself: "I certainly need to own it, it's my responsibility." WHY DO HIBS KEEP LOSING GAMES THEY COULD WIN? Gray pointed to a recurring theme: Hibs are creating more than enough chances but not taking them. "If you look back at the games we've lost this season, we could have won every one of them if we take our chances." He insisted the margins are fine and remains optimistic about consistency once the squad settles. Do you agree with David Gray? Let us know in the comments.

Vrancken praised a "brilliant first half", his players "manning up" in the duels and staying above the emotion of a hostile away derby, and hailed the travelling support for making Easter Road "feel like a home game". He singled out Josh McPake for becoming more decisive, and insisted there is "100%" more improvement in this Hearts side: "It doesn't end here, it's just starting." WHAT DID WOUTER VRANCKEN SAY AFTER THE EDINBURGH DERBY? Vrancken was proud of how Hearts handled the occasion, winning the first long ball, showing quality on the ball for the goals, and keeping their concentration after Hibs pulled one back. He thanked the fans for the synergy between the stands and the pitch, and framed the win as a marker of where Hearts are heading rather than a finished job. HOW GOOD WAS JOSH McPAKE? Vrancken was delighted with McPake's progress, noting he had struggled to be decisive earlier but has improved every week, and praised not just his goal threat but his overview and decision-making in the final third. Hibs 1-3 Hearts Post Match Interview Transcript: Wouter, how pleasing was the win and the way your team played? It was really pleasing actually. We played a brilliant first half, I think, and I was happy to see that, because it's not easy for players, with the weight of the game, playing an away game. Like we said already before the game, you have to be there, man up, be there in the duels, show yourself in these loose balls, and this is focus and concentration. At the same time you have to be above the emotions of the game, because otherwise you lose the overview to find spaces, to find free players, to find your quality, and I think we did really well in the first half. We were there, we won even the first long ball. We were there in these moments, and also we showed the quality on the ball, with the goals you saw.

Wouter Vrancken's side were the better team from the start, James Wilson finishing off a brilliant Josh McPake run after 13 minutes, before Lauren Mendy headed home a Blair Spittal free kick to make it 2-0 at the break. Adam Mayer's pile-driver gave Hibs hope early in the second half, but Jack Iredale's second yellow card, for a dangerous challenge on Calvin Miller, left the hosts down to 10 men, and Josh McPake's solo effort sealed a 3-1 win that lifts Hearts up to third. Hibs vs Hearts Match Report Transcript: Hibs 1 Hearts 3, and the bragging rights in the capital city belong to the team in maroon and white. They started the better of the two sides in the first half, played the better football, and were rewarded after 13 minutes. Josh McPake with a brilliant run cut it back, and there was James Wilson to side-foot it into the back of the net. Hearts doubled the lead when a Blair Spittal free kick was easily headed into the back of the net by Lauren Mendy. That made it 2-0 at the break. Something had to change for Hibs, they were absolutely woeful, going for long balls. A couple of changes were made and suddenly, six minutes into the second half, Adam Mayer hit a pile driver into the roof of the net and suddenly it was game on. But just beyond the hour, Jack Iredale, who'd already been yellow carded, picked up another yellow for a dangerous boot towards Calvin Miller. The referee had no option, sent him off, and Hibs were down to 10 men. And with all that space, the Jambos exploited it. Josh McPake down the left-hand side with a solo effort, his shot took a little deflection in off the post to seal the victory for Wouter Vrancken's side. It was no more than they deserved really, I thought they played the better football, and in the end they move up to third in the table, taking all three points in the Edinburgh derby here at Easter Road. It finished Hibs 1, Hearts 3. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vuooeiCoEGU 80 2026-09-03T21:00:28+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/raskin-will-stay-derek-mcinnes-on-raskin-shankland-and-rangers-2-1-win-over-falkirk-F8ZfMilnfxQ 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/F8ZfMilnfxQ/maxresdefault.jpg "Raskin will stay" - Derek McInnes on Raskin, Shankland and Rangers' 2-1 win over Falkirk Falkirk 1-2 Rangers: Watch Derek McInnes' full post match press conference. Derek McInnes praised the finishing qualities of his striker and the resilience of his team to get all three points. Rangers manager Derek McInnes speaks to the media after his side came from behind to beat Falkirk 2-1 at the Falkirk Stadium, with Lawrence Shankland scoring both goals to hand the Ibrox side back-to-back Scottish Premiership wins. McInnes — watching from the stands as he served the first game of his touchline ban — reflects on a "proper captain's performance" from Shankland, admits Rangers made hard work of a game they controlled for long spells, and explains what went wrong during Falkirk's second-half spell on top. He also gives his verdict on Nico Raskin's future amid transfer speculation, with the window closing before Saturday's game against Motherwell at Ibrox. 📋 Talking points: Lawrence Shankland's brace and captain's performance Why Rangers "played into Falkirk's hands" for 15-20 minutes Lessons from a tricky night on a difficult pitch Nico Raskin's transfer situation and McInnes' relief the window is closing Looking ahead to Motherwell at Ibrox on Saturday Derek McInnes post match interview highlights - Falkirk 1 Rangers 2: 0:00 — Praise for Shankland's brace and "captain's performance" 1:01 — Falkirk's second-half comeback: "we played into their hands" 1:31 — Lessons for a young team while still winning games 1:59 — Looking ahead: Motherwell at Ibrox on Saturday 2:07 — Should Rangers tighten up defensively? 2:15 — Breaking down the tactical dip: spacing, pressing, and passing choices 3:18 — Crediting Falkirk and adapting to their second-half approach 3:35 — Overall verdict: "loads of positives" from the win 3:46 — Is this Raskin's last game for Rangers? 4:03 — On Raskin's value to the team and recent uncertainty 4:33 — The chaos of transfer-window travel logistics 4:54 — Relief as the window finally shuts before Motherwell A Lawrence Shankland double dragged https://www.youtube.com/embed/F8ZfMilnfxQ 314 2026-09-02T22:14:28+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/it-wasnt-pretty-but-derek-mcinnes-wont-care-falkirk-1-2-rangers-rangers-rangersfc-F8cowIwEy2M 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/F8cowIwEy2M/maxresdefault.jpg "It wasn't pretty, but Derek McInnes won't care" | Falkirk 1 2 Rangers #Rangers #RangersFC Falkirk 1-2 Rangers: a Lawrence Shankland double dragged Derek McInnes' Rangers to all three points at the Falkirk Stadium. Shankland struck twice with his left foot, an eighth-minute effort into the roof of the net and a curling finish into the bottom corner 11 minutes from time, either side of a Kostadin Nedeljković own goal that had levelled it for Falkirk before half-time. It wasn't pretty, and Falkirk had chances of their own, but McInnes won't care as his side grind out a much-needed win. Falkirk vs Rangers match report transcript: Falkirk one, Rangers two, and two moments of magic from Lawrence Shankland provided Derek McInnes' men with all three points here at the Falkirk Stadium. The first, after eight minutes, a left-foot shot into the roof of the net, gave the visitors the lead. Just a couple of minutes away from the end of the first half, Ethan Ross down the right-hand side crossed the ball into the box, and it was redirected into the Rangers net by Kostadin Nedeljković, and that made it 1-1 at the break. In the second half, Falkirk had a good number of chances to get a goal in the match. Jacob Muir squandered two opportunities, and so did Aiden Doherty, but up stepped Shankland 11 minutes from time, curled a beautiful left-foot shot into the bottom corner of the net and gave Rangers all three points. It wasn't pretty, but Derek McInnes won't be caring. He'll be hoping more of his players settle into this side and get a style as the weeks progress. He'll be happy to come out of Falkirk with all three points. Is McInnes' Rangers finally turning a corner? Let us know in the comments.

After a summer of change - 10 free transfers plus three signings - Robinson says he is still looking to strengthen if the right player is available, but only if they are significantly better and do not block the pathway of young players like winger Andrew Fisa. He also speaks with blunt honesty about the fringe players who are not in his plans. WHAT DID STEPHEN ROBINSON SAY ABOUT ABERDEEN'S DEADLINE DAY? Robinson called himself "a selfish manager" who wants to improve every position, but stressed Aberdeen have already brought in a lot of new faces and any further signing has to clearly improve the squad without blocking young talent. Aberdeen are still looking, but only for the right addition. WHAT DID ROBINSON SAY ABOUT PLAYERS OUT OF THE SQUAD? He was honest: "If they're not involved, I don't deem them to be good enough to be in the squad." Robinson said he has had tough, honest conversations with the players who are not part of his plans, but insisted everyone still gets a chance to force their way back in through training. Stephen Robinson press conference transcript: "Yeah, I'd like to reinforce every position, I'm a selfish manager, so of course, but I'm not sure we'll be able to do that. We've brought in a lot of players, 10 free transfers with three signings. As I say, there's been a lot of change. Obviously we've paid a little bit of money for one. If there was anything left, of course, there's certain areas I want to strengthen. We've got two wingers in the building, we've got young Andrew Fisa coming through as well, so if we bring somebody in, we have to be careful we don't block younger players' pathways. And they have to be significantly better, of course. So if there's a chance to improve the squad, then yeah, definitely, we're still looking. Yeah, of course.

Thirty-three years on, Matt discusses the current board, death threats, an encounter with the KGB, love lost and many happy memories watching Celtic at home and abroad. Celtic fan and activist Matt McGlone looks back on the madness of 'Celts for Change', the supporters' movement that helped force out Celtic's old board in 1994. Thirty-three years on, Matt reflects on the campaign, the current Celtic board, the death threats he received, an unlikely encounter with the KGB, love lost along the way, and a lifetime of happy memories following Celtic home and abroad. WHAT WAS 'CELTS FOR CHANGE'? 'Celts for Change' was the fan pressure group that mobilised Celtic supporters in the early 1990s to remove the club's old board, at a time when Celtic were in financial crisis. Matt McGlone was at the heart of it, and here he tells the inside story of how ordinary fans took on the boardroom and won. WHY DOES MATT McGLONE MENTION THE KGB? Among the more surreal chapters of the campaign, Matt recounts an unexpected encounter with the KGB, one of the stranger episodes in a period of Celtic's history that mixed genuine danger, including death threats, with moments that now sound almost unbelievable. WHAT DOES McGLONE MAKE OF THE CURRENT CELTIC BOARD? Matt draws a line from the battles of 1994 to today, giving his view on the current Celtic board and whether the lessons of 'Celts for Change' still apply to how supporters hold their club to account.

For McLeish, that disappointment is itself a marker of progress: "It shows how far we've come as a group that we are disappointed with a point." He praises his players' character in coming back from two goals down, gives an injury update on Killian Phillips, and addresses the transfer futures of Killian Phillips and Jake Young with deadline day approaching. WHY ARE St MIRREN DISAPPOINTED WITH A DRAW? Because the standard has risen. McLeish framed dropping two points at home as a sign of how far the group has come, pointing to Motherwell celebrating a point at St Mirren Park as proof. He felt St Mirren created enough to win and were punished by top-quality Motherwell finishing, "similar to Rangers, where you get punished with real quality." WHAT IS THE KILLIAN PHILLIPS INJURY UPDATE? Phillips missed the game after a challenge in the Rangers match caught him on the shin, with the swelling failing to settle all week. McLeish expects him to miss around another week before returning to the training pitch, a blow during a congested run of fixtures. WHAT DID McLEISH SAY ABOUT TRANSFERS (JAKE YOUNG, KILLIAN PHILLIPS)? McLeish is relaxed about interest in Killian Phillips: nothing official has come in, and both player and club are calm unless an offer is too good to turn down. On Jake Young, who impacted the game off the bench, he confirmed a reported move is "not quite concrete yet" but conversations are taking place, and warned St Mirren must protect the depth of their squad as the window closes on Thursday.

Johansson praises the belief and character that ran through his team to the final whistle: "We keep believing to the last second." He talks up the strength in depth of his squad, the impact of five substitutions that turned the game late on, and the instant impact of debutant Kanga, who levelled just 48 hours after signing. WHAT DID ALFRED JOHANSSON SAY AFTER St MIRREN 3-3 MOTHERWELL? He was full of belief and praise for his squad: "We have a brilliant squad, so much talent, so much ability, so much spirit." He pointed to being able to make five genuinely impactful substitutions to finish the game strong as the difference in a late comeback, and highlighted the mentality that kept Motherwell going until the very last second. WHY ARE MOTHERWELL DOING SO WELL THIS SEASON? Johansson's message is about depth and belief: a squad deep enough to change games from the bench, and a group that refuses to give up. The late leveller in Paisley was the clearest proof yet of that never-say-die character. Are Motherwell the real deal this season? Let us know in the comments.

Again, you look at Motherwell celebrating a draw the way they do, and it shows how far we've come as a group. I mean, they're a fantastic side as well, I like what they're doing. I suppose if you're a neutral, it's a really good game to watch. We did so much good stuff within the game, I'm trying to say that to the boys in there right now, but we have to keep playing like that. We have to keep showing everything that we're trying to do.

St Mirren and Motherwell served up a 3-3 thriller in Paisley, with Kanga rescuing a point for the Steelmen deep in stoppage time - only 48 hours after signing, and on his debut. Hear from both managers straight after full time. WHAT DID THE St MIRREN MANAGER SAY? Disappointment, and he framed it as a sign of progress: "It shows how far we've come as a group that we are disappointed with a point." He pointed to Motherwell celebrating the draw as proof of how far St Mirren have come, and urged his players to keep being brave and playing the same way all season. WHAT DID ALFRED JOHANSSON SAY ABOUT MOTHERWELL? The Motherwell manager was delighted with his squad's strength in depth: "We have a brilliant squad, so much talent, so much ability, so much spirit." He was able to make five impactful substitutions to finish the game strong, and they delivered the late comeback. Who'll be happier with a point - St Mirren or Motherwell?

McInnes says a signing has taken longer "for reasons the club aren't guilty for", rules out imminent outgoings and says there have been no offers for Nico. He saw "a wee flavour" today of the attacking side he wants Rangers to become, but insists they need to "show teeth a bit more". WILL RANGERS SIGN A NEW STRIKER BEFORE THE DEADLINE? McInnes made clear it's the priority: Rangers are actively chasing the striker they want and expect the window to heat up in its final days. He framed the delay as out of the club's hands ("reasons the club aren't guilty for") rather than a change of plan. WHAT DID McINNES SAY ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE? He was encouraged: he called it "the team that I kind of hope we can be" and pointed to players getting into good attacking positions, while stressing Rangers must be more ruthless in the final third.

Aberdeen had a penalty appeal turned down when Kevin Nisbet went down and had a goal disallowed for a foul on Dujon Sterling, and Robinson questions the consistency: not enough force to award Aberdeen a penalty, yet enough to rule out an Aberdeen goal. He praises his players' second-half desire and battling, but says numerous reasons cost his side the three points. WHAT DID STEPHEN ROBINSON SAY ABOUT THE REFEREEING? He avoided direct criticism to steer clear of an SFA charge, but pointed to an inconsistency: the same level of contact was judged "not enough" for a Kevin Nisbet penalty yet "enough" to disallow an Aberdeen goal for a foul on Dujon Sterling. "Somebody's made that decision, rightly or wrongly, and it certainly affects the game." HOW DID ABERDEEN PLAY AGAINST RANGERS? Robinson was happy with the performance if not the result: Aberdeen took the game to Rangers in the second half, created chances and showed "real desire and determination", conceding only from first-half counterattacks before tightening up at half-time. Ultimately, "we play football to get three points" and Aberdeen didn't get them. Do you agree with Stephen Robinson? Let us know in the comments.

Who carries the can for dismal performances in Europe by a number of Scottish clubs? Is the pressure on Derek McInnes at Rangers so soon into his managerial reign? How many players will Martin O'Neill need and eventually get at Celtic before the window closes? Peter Martin, Alan Rough, Gordon Parks and Tam McManus pick over the wreckage of a miserable European week for Scottish football on The Football Show LIVE. The panel debate the SFA ban that orders Celtic and Rangers to play their next Scottish Cup home tie behind closed doors and pay the opposition £100,000; assess Derek McInnes blasting his Rangers players after the Jablonec exit and whether the clock is now ticking on him; dissect Martin O'Neill's flat press conference and who carries the can for Celtic's collapse against LASK; and salute Hearts, the only Scottish club to reach the group stage, while Motherwell earn a pass and Hibs throw it away again. Plus the European draws, how many players Celtic and Hearts still need, and the weekend fixtures. WHO TAKES THE BLAME FOR THE EUROPEAN HORROR SHOW? The panel spread the blame: Derek McInnes and a Rangers squad with "no identity, no character" and a "culture of fear"; Martin O'Neill for not shutting up shop at 4-0 up on aggregate; and, above all, the Celtic board for leaving O'Neill exposed with a squad short of a physical midfielder and a settled defence. IS THE SFA BAN ON CELTIC AND RANGERS FAIR? Gordon Parks backs the ban as the "brutal financial" action needed to stop crowd trouble; Celtic's statement calls it disproportionate and questions Rangers' security. Both clubs must play their next Scottish Cup home tie behind closed doors and pay the opposition around £100,000. IS DEREK McINNES UNDER PRESSURE AT RANGERS? Yes.

Describing it as "a punch in the solar plexus," Gray refuses to be critical of his players or single out any individual for the cruel own goal that decided the tie, praising their second-half desire and belief. He says the game turned on two moments in the last five minutes - an unnecessary corner conceded, then Hibs missing the clearest chance of the game at the other end - and insists he would not change anything tactically. WHAT DID DAVID GRAY SAY ABOUT HIBS' EXIT? He called it "a punch in the solar plexus," said you don't always get what you deserve in football, and backed his players for a second-half performance full of desire and energy - while refusing to blame the individual involved in the decisive own goal. HOW DID HIBS GO OUT TO GENT? Gray says the tie was decided by two moments in the final five minutes: Hibs conceded an unnecessary corner and failed to defend it (the cruel own goal), then went straight up the pitch and missed the clearest chance of the game.

On The Journos, Peter Martin and Stephen McGowan say the answer is "emphatically no." After the Champions League play-off collapse against LASK, they argue Celtic's board will not show humility, will not improve communication with supporters and will not change strategy - and that majority shareholder Dermot Desmond will simply hand the club to his son rather than sell up. Eight failures in 10 Champions League play-offs, they say, should force a fundamental rethink, but the same change was promised last summer and never came. WILL CELTIC'S BOARD CHANGE? The panel say no - there is no sign the board will acknowledge the problem, improve communication or hand over control, with Dermot Desmond in charge and set to pass the club to his son. WHY ARE CELTIC FANS FRUSTRATED? Celtic have failed eight of their last ten Champions League play-offs. The board promised to improve the transfer strategy last summer, but spending more on a limited number of players still "feels like the same old, same old."

He hails a "truly remarkable" team performance - Boruc's two penalty saves, Calvin Miller's herculean shift and goal even with 10 men - praises Wouter Vrancken's man-management (singling out Kabore in the dressing room), and lays out an ambitious plan: the Foundation has raised £20.75m, and with Tony Bloom's Jamestown Analytics on board, Hearts intend to "disrupt Scottish football." WHAT DID GRAHAM ROBERTSON SAY ABOUT THE RAPID VIENNA WIN?

WHY IS HEARTS' FUTURE BRIGHT? The Foundation of Hearts has raised £20.75m from its members, and with Tony Bloom's Jamestown Analytics involved, Robertson says the club aims to "disrupt Scottish football," with a happy board meeting and "a lot of good announcements" to come before the end of the year. WHAT DID HE SAY ABOUT CALVIN MILLER AND WOUTER VRANCKEN? He called Miller's display herculean - an intelligent, skilful, hard-working ex-Falkirk winger now knocking on the door of the Scotland squad - and backed Vrancken as the right long-term manager, praising his man-management after he singled out Kabore, who had lost his place to James Wilson before scoring the equalizer.

Written off by almost everyone, Wouter Vrancken's side were superb: Kaboré guided a clever equalizer in off his chest, Calvin Miller's acrobatic goal looked like the winner even with Hearts down to 10 men, and although Rapid Vienna equalized in the last few seconds, goalkeeper Boruc saved two penalties in the shootout to send the Jambos through. A huge lift for Scottish football when it needed it most. HOW DID HEARTS BEAT RAPID VIENNA? Hearts drew over two legs and won on penalties in Vienna. Kaboré equalized with his chest, Calvin Miller scored an acrobatic goal with Hearts down to 10 men, and after Rapid Vienna equalized late, keeper Boruc saved two spot-kicks in the shootout.

Hugh MacDonald ranks the defeat as Celtic's most calamitous result in their history. Peter Martin rules out any prospect of change in the boardroom or strategy from the majority shareholder. What are the prospects for the remaining Scottish clubs in European competition this week? The Journos - Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Stephen McGowan - dissect the fallout from Celtic's Champions League play-off collapse, a 5-1 defeat to LASK in Austria (5-4 on aggregate) that Hugh MacDonald ranks as the most calamitous result in the club's European history. Leading 4-0 on aggregate with 60 minutes to go, Celtic fell apart. The panel ask who is to blame - the board, Martin O'Neill or the players - and argue that an arrogant board and majority shareholder Dermot Desmond ignored the manager's calls for quality over quantity, leaving Celtic hopelessly under-prepared. Peter Martin rules out any change in strategy or the boardroom. WHY DID CELTIC LOSE 5-1 TO LASK? The panel point to a fragile back line (Auston Trusty and an injury-prone Cameron Carter-Vickers), individual errors from Benjamin Nygren and others, a baffling lack of substitutions, and a squad short of depth and quality - the board having failed to sign a number-six midfielder to replace Arne Engels, plus left-back and right-back cover. WHO IS TO BLAME FOR CELTIC'S CHAMPIONS LEAGUE EXIT? There is "enough blame to go around" - the board, Martin O'Neill and the players - but the panel's central charge is against the board: a 23-year strategy of running Celtic as a business, "rolling the dice" at the end of the window and failing eight of the last ten Champions League play-offs, while ignoring fans who want more ambition. WILL ANYTHING CHANGE AT CELTIC? Peter Martin says no - describing an arrogant, uncommunicative board under Dermot Desmond that "neither apologises no https://www.youtube.com/embed/1rtiPEZ7BNg 2988 2026-08-26T15:00:36+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/one-of-the-worst-nights-in-celtics-european-history-whos-to-blame-TJSnb9hToAI 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TJSnb9hToAI/maxresdefault.jpg "One of the worst nights in CELTIC's European HISTORY" - who's to blame? Lask 5-1 Celtic (5-4 on agg) - Celtic have crashed out of the Champions League in one of the most embarrassing nights in the club's history, losing 5-1 to LASK in Austria to go out 5-4 on aggregate after leading the tie 3-0 from the first leg. Callum McGregor's away goal briefly put Celtic 4-0 up on aggregate, but Martin O'Neill's side collapsed - Benjamin Nygren and Auston Trusty among those at fault - and were knocked out in extra time, dropping into the Europa League. Peter Martin lays the blame squarely at the board, who ignored O'Neill's warnings that he needed quality signings in time for this tie. HOW DID CELTIC BLOW A 4-0 LEAD? Leading 4-0 on aggregate after Callum McGregor's away goal, Celtic conceded a string of goals through individual errors and a fragile back line, gave up more than 35 shots, and were dead on their feet by extra time with Kieran Tierney and Cameron Carter-Vickers already off. LASK even missed a penalty - it could have been 6-1. WHO IS TO BLAME FOR CELTIC'S CHAMPIONS LEAGUE EXIT? Peter Martin blames the board: they didn't back Martin O'Neill's calls for quality recruits in time, "rolled the dice" again, and are described as an arrogant board that won't listen - with the majority shareholder ultimately in control. The poor defence was a known weakness left unaddressed. WHAT HAPPENS TO CELTIC NOW? Celtic drop into the Europa League league phase, missing out on the estimated £40m-plus Champions League windfall, with the fans furious and demanding answers from the board.

On The Football Show, the panel - Alan Rough, Alex Rae and Tam McManus - preview Rangers' Europa Conference League playoff second leg away to Jablonec, and they are not convinced. They argue the tie is about character and mentality as much as football, and with Rangers unconvincing under Derek McInnes, the prediction is that Rangers go out, with Jablonec progressing. WILL RANGERS BEAT JABLONEC? The panel doubt it. They question Rangers' character when things go against them and, watching them this season, are "not convinced" - tipping Jablonec to go through and Rangers to drop out of Europe. WHAT DO RANGERS NEED TO GET THROUGH? Solidity and mentality: the panel say if Jablonec score first, Rangers need players who will stay solid and work for each other - something they feel has been missing when things aren't going well.

Will Celtic park the bus against LASK? On The Football Show, Tam McManus warns that Celtic's Champions League playoff tie is not as safe as the 3-0 first-leg lead suggests. Despite winning 3-0 at Celtic Park, he thought LASK were excellent and unlucky, created chances, and believes Celtic will have to defend strongly - and probably still need to score - to see out the tie in Austria and reach the Champions League group stage. WHY ISN'T CELTIC'S 3-0 LEAD SAFE? Tam McManus felt LASK were really good in Glasgow and unfortunate to lose 3-0, creating a lot of chances. He expects them to threaten in the second leg, so Celtic must defend strongly rather than simply sit on the lead. DO CELTIC NEED TO SCORE IN AUSTRIA? He thinks so - an away goal would settle the nerves and all but confirm Celtic's place in the Champions League group stage.

Tam McManus argues that Celtic will attract a far higher level of player if they reach the Champions League - working from an A, B and C shopping list that changes depending on whether they qualify for the Champions League or drop into the Europa League. The panel say Celtic still need a goalkeeper, a centre-half, left-back and right-back cover, and a winger or striker, having started to buy finished-article players in their mid-20s with Champions League experience. WHAT SIGNINGS DO CELTIC STILL NEED? The panel list a goalkeeper, a centre-half, cover at left-back and right-back (with Alistair Johnston due back in two to three weeks and Colby Donovan already in), plus a winger or a striker - three or four more players. HOW DOES THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE CHANGE CELTIC'S TRANSFERS? Reaching the Champions League lets Celtic attract better players and spend in a different market - Tam McManus says the club has an A/B/C list that shifts depending on qualification, and is now signing quality, finished-article players such as Kasper Hogh, Camilo Duran and Hassan.

Celtic head to Austria to defend a 3-0 first-leg lead over LASK, with manager Martin O'Neill banning his players from social media before the game; Rangers take a slender lead to Jablonec under pressure; and Hearts and Hibs chase results away to Rapid Vienna and Gent. The panel also react to Dundee's 2-0 derby win over Dundee United, the new appointments of Tony Docherty and Steven Naismith to the Scotland Under-21s, and pay tribute to the late Kevin Keegan. WHICH SCOTTISH CLUBS CAN GET THROUGH IN EUROPE? Celtic are strong favourites to see out their 3-0 lead over LASK in Austria and reach the Champions League. The panel are less sure about Rangers at Jablonec, and expect Hearts (2-2 with Rapid Vienna) and Motherwell to go out, while backing Hibernian to edge past Gent at Easter Road after a 0-0 first leg. WHY HAS MARTIN O'NEILL BANNED CELTIC FROM SOCIAL MEDIA? Ahead of the trip to Austria, O'Neill told his players to stay off social media so nothing they post can be used by the opposition - the panel back the move, warning the tie is not over given how well LASK played in the 3-0 defeat at Celtic Park. WHAT HAPPENED IN THE DUNDEE DERBY? Dundee won 2-0 away to Dundee United at Tannadice through Drey Wright and an Owen Bevan own goal, with Ryan Astley man of the match. The panel praise Steven Pressley ("Big Elvis") and ask where Jim Goodwin's Dundee United goals will come from. WHAT ABOUT RANGERS? Rangers are closing in on Girona winger Kim Min-su, but the panel question Derek McInnes's blend, expect Nicolas Raskin, Connor Barron and Lyall Cameron to move on, and are not convinced Rangers will survive at Jablonec.

After a 2-0 Dundee-derby win over Dundee United at Tannadice, Steven Pressley's Dundee sit joint top of the table alongside Celtic and St Mirren. Drey Wright and an Owen Bevan own goal sealed the derby, with Ryan Astley named man of the match. Vote in the comments - top six, or too soon to say? WHY ARE DUNDEE DOING SO WELL? Steven Pressley ("Big Elvis") has transformed Dundee on a tight budget, rebuilding the squad after losing several key players and getting an instant return - a derby win that put them level at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

What do you think? Dundee won the Dundee derby 2-0 away to Dundee United at Tannadice, with Peter Martin reckoning they fully deserved it. Drey Wright lashed in the opener and a second goal was deflected into the net off a United defender from an Alan Forrest drive. The win sends Steven Pressley's Dundee joint top of the Scottish Premiership alongside Celtic and St Mirren, while it's worrying times for Jim Goodwin's Dundee United, who have scored just one league goal all season. WHAT WAS THE SCORE IN THE DUNDEE DERBY? Dundee United 0-2 Dundee at Tannadice. Drey Wright scored the first, and Dundee's second was bundled in off a United defender following an Alan Forrest drive into the box. WHY ARE DUNDEE JOINT TOP OF THE TABLE? The 2-0 derby win puts Steven Pressley's side level at the top of the Scottish Premiership with Celtic and St Mirren - a superb start, with the back line and man of the match Ryan Astley singled out for praise. WAS THERE VAR CONTROVERSY? Yes - a Dundee free-kick on the edge of the United box led to a VAR review by John Beaton that changed the decision, a call Peter Martin expects will be debated for days.

Dundee United 0-2 Dundee Reaction Transcript: Dundee United nil, Dundee 2 and the city of discovery belongs to the dark blue this evening. Steven Pressley's men provided all the evidence that they wanted it more in this derby match. And one of the highlights of that was Drey Wright's opening goal. Abdullah Yuro gave the ball away in the middle of the park. He didn't even bother to track back which would have infuriated Jim Goodwin. Drey Wright just marched on to the edge of the box and lashed the ball with his right foot into the bottom corner to give Dundee the lead and send the away fans wild with delight.

He's optimistic Hearts can finish the job in Vienna after James Wilson's wonder goal, but says the back line is his big worry with Craig Halkett injured until the end of the year. He also backs keeping James Wilson, wants a 20-goal striker signed, and targets silverware in the Premier Sports Cup. WHAT DID THE HEARTS FAN SAY ABOUT THE 2-2 WITH RAPID VIENNA? David Beveridge thought Hearts were strong in a fast, competitive second half and rode their luck early, and is confident going into the second leg in Vienna - pointing out Rapid only drew 2-2 with Dundee United there last season. WHAT IS HEARTS' BIGGEST WEAKNESS? The defence. With Craig Halkett out until the end of the year and the spine weakened by summer departures (the goalkeeper plus Cammy Devlin and Lawrence Shankland to Rangers), Beveridge says Hearts concede too many goals and need to strengthen the centre of the team. WHAT ARE HEARTS' AMBITIONS THIS SEASON? Silverware in the Premier Sports Cup - with a tie against Stenhousemuir and the Old Firm drawn against each other - plus a top-three finish, praising Wouter Vrancken's exciting, fast-paced football (a contrast to how Derek McInnes had them playing last year). He's quietly confident for the Edinburgh derby against Hibs on 3 September at Easter Road.

After the first legs, the panel ask which Scottish clubs will actually make the cut for Europe: Rangers beat Jablonec 1-0 but were booed off and are gripped by a "culture of fear" under Derek McInnes; Celtic beat LASK 3-0 through Benjamin Nygren and a Camilo Duran double for Martin O'Neill; Hibernian are all to play for against Gent; Hearts drew 2-2 with Rapid Vienna; and Motherwell went out 1-3 to Freiburg but earned a standing ovation. The panel's verdict: Celtic, Hibs and possibly Rangers to progress. Plus the Dundee derby preview and English Premier League title predictions. WHICH SCOTTISH CLUBS WILL QUALIFY FOR EUROPE? The panel back Celtic and Hibernian to reach the group stages, with Rangers a "wing and a prayer" against Jablonec and Motherwell already out after a 3-1 defeat to Freiburg. Hearts (2-2 with Rapid Vienna) are rated capable but flawed at the back. WHAT'S WRONG WITH RANGERS UNDER DEREK McINNES? The panel describe a "culture of fear" at Ibrox: players circulating the ball backwards, no creative spark and no reliable goalscorer. James Penrice is praised as the standout summer signing, while the panel debate selling Emmanuel Fernandez and question whether Lawrence Shankland suits the system. Cammy Devlin's red card is analysed. Their view: McInnes needs two or three quality additions - a striker, a wide player and a creative midfielder. HOW GOOD WERE CELTIC IN THE 3-0 WIN OVER LASK? Very good going forward - Nygren's instep finish and Duran's two goals were superb, and young right-back Colby Donovan impressed - but the panel warn Celtic's back line is still suspect, with Cameron Carter-Vickers short of pace, and say Celtic must sign a mobile centre-half and cover for striker Kasper Hogh. WHAT DID THE PANEL SAY ABOUT MOTHERWELL? Despite losing 1-3 to Bundesliga side Freiburg, Alfred Johansson's Motherwell were praised for brave f https://www.youtube.com/embed/PE1Zky5pZeM 3686 2026-08-21T15:00:02+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/post-match-reaction-hearts-2-2-sk-rapid-wien-qJrft_4t1JE 2026-10-21T21:10:26+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qJrft_4t1JE/maxresdefault.jpg POST-MATCH REACTION | Hearts 2-2 SK Rapid Wien POST-MATCH REACTION | Hearts 2-2 SK Rapid Wein - Heart of Midlothian drew 2-2 with SK Rapid Vienna at Tynecastle in the first leg of their Europa Conference League playoff. Josh McPake and James Wilson scored for the Jambos - Wilson's strike an absolute screamer - but two goals from the Austrians mean the tie is level heading into the second leg in Vienna next week. Hearts manager Wouter Vrancken said he was proud of his players' energy and intensity, and that "it's all open next week." WHAT WAS THE SCORE: HEARTS v RAPID VIENNA? Hearts 2-2 SK Rapid Wien. Hearts scored through Josh McPake and James Wilson; Rapid Vienna replied twice. The Europa Conference League playoff tie is level after the first leg. WHAT DID WOUTER VRANCKEN SAY? The Hearts head coach praised his players' energy and week-by-week intensity, said the team is "making steps," and stressed the tie is still all to play for: "it's all open next week." WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? Hearts travel to Vienna next week for the second leg. Win or draw with enough goals and they reach the Europa Conference League group stage.

Vrancken says he is proud of his players' second-half energy and intensity, admits Hearts conceded two soft goals, and praises young Scottish international James Wilson for a stunning strike. He confirms Josh McPake came off with a calf problem and insists the tie is "all to play for" - but warns Hearts must be at 100% in Vienna next Wednesday to progress. WHAT DID WOUTER VRANCKEN SAY ABOUT HEARTS 2-2 RAPID VIENNA? He was proud of the players' mentality and second-half performance, disappointed to concede from losing the ball too easily and a soft corner, and pleased with the team spirit that earned a 2-2 draw. He believes the tie is open and winnable in Vienna. WHAT DID VRANCKEN SAY ABOUT JAMES WILSON'S GOAL? He called it a great goal that gives confidence, said he is "really happy" for the young lad, and rates Wilson as coachable with a high ceiling who now needs minutes and experience. WHAT IS THE INJURY NEWS? Josh McPake was withdrawn as a precaution with a tightening calf; Vrancken hopes he needs only a day or two given Hearts are already missing several players. WHAT DOES VRANCKEN NEED IN THE SECOND LEG? He says being at 95-98% will not be enough in Vienna next Wednesday - Hearts must hit 100% and push even harder than they did at Tynecastle.

Motherwell started in dreamland when Charles Reagan Cook scored inside two minutes, but Matthias Ginter levelled with a header and added a penalty after Murman was sent off for fouling Maximilian Eggestein. Freiburg headed a third at the death to win 3-1 and reach the group stage. Despite the defeat, the Motherwell fans gave their players a standing ovation - no disgrace against quality German opposition. WHAT WAS THE SCORE: MOTHERWELL v FREIBURG? Motherwell 1-3 Freiburg. Charles Reagan Cook put Motherwell ahead early; Matthias Ginter scored twice for Freiburg (a header and a penalty) and the Germans added a third from a late corner. WHY DID MOTHERWELL GO DOWN TO 10 MEN? Murman was shown a red card after a VAR review for pulling down Freiburg's Maximilian Eggestein in the box, and Ginter converted the resulting penalty. IS MOTHERWELL OUT OF EUROPE? Yes. The 3-1 defeat ends Motherwell's Europa Conference League run; Freiburg advance to the group stage.

Peter also reacts to Celtic's superb 3-0 win over LASK the night before - goals from Benjamin Nygren and a Duran double for Martin O'Neill's side - and gives his verdict: only Rangers and Celtic look likely to progress, with tough nights ahead for Hearts, Hibs and Motherwell. WHICH SCOTTISH CLUBS ARE IN EUROPE TONIGHT? Four: Rangers (v Jablonec), Hearts (v Rapid Vienna), Hibernian (v Gent) and Motherwell (v Freiburg), across the Europa Conference League and Europa League playoff round. Celtic already won their tie 3-0 against LASK the previous night. WHAT DID PETER MARTIN SAY ABOUT CELTIC 3-0 LASK? He called it a magnificent performance - Nygren's opener and a Duran double were technically superb - while warning Celtic still looked shaky at the back and praising young right-back Kobe Donovan. He believes 3-0 is a defendable lead heading to Austria. WHAT ARE THE PREDICTIONS? Peter tips Rangers to beat Jablonec and Celtic to go through, but fears tough nights for Hearts (a draw at best against Rapid Vienna), Hibs (v Gent) and Motherwell (against Bundesliga side Freiburg, last season's Europa League runners-up).

Celtic beat LASK 3-0 at Celtic Park in the first leg of their Champions League qualifier. Benjamin Nygren opened the scoring with a superb instep finish, then Camilo Duran struck twice ("Duran Duran") to complete a 3-0 win for Martin O'Neill's side. A clean sheet and a three-goal cushion means Celtic travel to Austria for the second leg on the brink of the Champions League group stage. WHO SCORED FOR CELTIC? Nygren (1) and Camilo Duran (2). Nygren guided the opener past the goalkeeper with his instep; Duran added two technically brilliant finishes, the second lashed into the roof of the net. Young right-back Kobe Donovan and the Celtic number nine also earned praise for their work-rate. WHAT DOES THE RESULT MEAN? Celtic lead the tie 3-0 with the second leg to come in Austria next week.

With Celtic, Rangers, Hibernian, Motherwell and Hearts all playing European first legs, the panel predict that only two of the five will still be standing by the end of next week. Which two? They make their calls below. WHO IS THE NEW SCOTLAND MANAGER? Sebastien Pocognoli has been appointed Scotland manager, and the panel are optimistic about the appointment. They discuss the biggest challenge facing any international coach — how little time you get to implement your ideas — and argue Pocognoli's remit is simple: qualify and win games, while introducing a front-foot, high-press style. The panel also weigh up the emerging talent Pocognoli can call on, and which senior players (from a group including Andy Robertson, John McGinn, Scott McTominay, Kieran Tierney, Billy Gilmour, Lawrence Shankland, Lyndon Dykes, Grant Hanley, Kenny McLean, Ryan Christie, Scott McKenna and Jack Hendry) may step aside after the World Cup. Their conclusion: Scotland still have a strong core, including Champions League winners, a Scudetto winner and a Europa League winner. HOW WILL SCOTTISH CLUBS DO IN EUROPE THIS WEEK? The panel are braced for "wreckage" from the Scottish clubs in their European first legs — Celtic vs LASK, Rangers lost to Jablonec, Hibernian vs Gent, Motherwell vs Freiburg and Hearts vs Rapid Vienna. The big talking point is Celtic: with Alistair Johnston and Arne Engels moving on and a board unwilling to spend (the same board that provided no cover for Kyogo), the panel question whether a lightweight Celtic midfield can survive two legs. On Rangers, they call for calm around Derek McInnes rather than the "hysteria" that has surrounded him, and dig into why Scottish clubs keep struggling in Europe — the coefficient problem, and the gap between domestic form and European re https://www.youtube.com/embed/dTVXhggoGuE 3625 2026-08-19T15:00:07+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/scotlands-new-manager-but-can-our-clubs-survive-europe-this-week-the-football-show-live-r6oMz0ClbGo 2026-08-18T13:38:50+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/r6oMz0ClbGo/maxresdefault.jpg Scotland's new manager — but can our clubs survive Europe this week? | The Football Show LIVE Attacking, entertaining and winning is the big task facing the new Scotland manager according to Peter Martin.

Obviously it's a mouth-watering tie, and if you're going to win the trophy, you need to beat the better team. So Celtic coming here - I think that's two big weeks in a row it will be - so it'll be eagerly anticipated for everybody, something to look forward to. Hopefully by the time that game comes around, we're on the back of a few more wins and the squad is a lot more settled and a bit stronger than it is at the minute, because it'll need to be to wrestle with a team like Celtic.

The Thistle manager felt his side were excellent in the second half, created chances and had a penalty shout waved away, but rued their failure to take a clear-cut chance - "that's the difference" at Premiership level.

But I want to keep Will Ferry. We as a club want to keep Will Ferry. We're going to offer Will a new contract and try and improve his financial situation and all of these things.

Martin O'Neill post match interview transcript (Dundee United 0-4 Celtic): Yeah, it suggests at 4-0 that it was comfortable, and I thought there were moments when we played really well, other moments where we were very untidy. And Dundee United, I felt up until maybe the third goal that they were never really out of it, and I think I was told they've hit the bar about three, four, five times, so that might tell you about it, and they hit the post certainly before we scored. So delighted with the win. Some moments were terrific and other moments I thought we were just a bit untidy, but we'll have to straighten that out. That's five different goal scorers in the last two games, which must be encouraging, especially in such a big week. It is, yeah, it is a big week for us. We've got the game on Wednesday and then the second match on the Tuesday, so big games in every aspect - Champions League, qualification matches, everything to go for, prestige, finance, all that type of stuff. So we'll try and be as ready as we possibly can. Was there individual performances that pleased you, Martin? Well, I thought Jan was exceptional for us. Thought he was a really good player, he is a good player, and yeah, he was terrific. Getting those goals must build up the confidence. How many bits of that jigsaw do you think you'll need, or are you just taking it day by day to see who can come in? Well, yeah, I think that we can add to it. Whether that happens before Wednesday is a different issue. I think that we've already announced a squad. I think you can, up until Tuesday night, add another two players, but yeah, I think in time we will get them in. Whether we do before Wednesday is another issue.

The Dundee United manager took aim at Celtic's second goal, questioning the timing and the manner of it, and asked why VAR is there if it does not step in on the big moments: "I don't think there's a manager in the country that would want those types of goals going against them." Jim Goodwin Post Match Interview Transcript: "I know how reluctant referees are now to make decisions in the moment because of the VAR situation, and they're maybe hoping that the VAR guys will make a decision for them. But that second goal, for me, the timing of that goal so quickly after the first one and the manner of it, it just baffles me sometimes. I don't think there's a manager in the country that would want those types of goals going against them. And it's the whole reason why we pay for VAR, you know, to come in and assist the referees in situations like that when they don't see the big moments" Was Goodwin right, or is he clutching at straws after a 4-0 defeat?

Dundee United 0-4 Celtic! The Celtic juggernaut rolls on as Martin O'Neill's side cruise into the quarter-finals of the Premier Sports Cup. United had early chances and hit the upright twice, but from there it was one-way traffic at Tannadice, with Auston Trusty, Camilo Duran (his first for the club) and two more sealing a dominant win.

Dundee United vs Celtic Highlights Transcript: Dundee United nil, Celtic four, and Martin O'Neill's side cruise into the quarter-finals of the Premier Sports Cup. And it could have been so different for United, because they had two big opportunities early on in the first half, both of them hit the upright, and from there Celtic just went on and dominated this match. Trusty with the first goal, then the second one was added by Camilo Duran, his first for the club, before a solo effort in the second half put the icing on the cake, and then a fourth was added. Celtic cruising into the quarter-final stage. Nine goals in the last two games, and the manager must be happy with his new boys coming in, and of course the goals coming from all across the park here at Tannadice.

Owen Stirton had the visitors ahead after just 5 minutes, they started on the front foot, and then Kilmarnock got back in it through Joe Hugo. Ross Taylor fired Ayr United in front just after half-time, a lovely curling effort, and then his wonderful goal was matched by Michael, the left-back, who cuts inside from the left and hit it in on his right to make it 2-2. Late on, but in the end the hero of the day is going to be Nicky Clecenco. That young man has read himself into Kilmarnock folklore, dinks the goalkeeper Harry Stone right at the death in the 90th minute and sent this place into absolute rapture. So limbs everywhere, and there's going to be a lot of happy customers coming out of here tonight. Not so much for the honest men.

Tam McManus pulls no punches on The Football Show LIVE, warning that McInnes has to start winning games, beginning with St Mirren on Sunday, or he will be facing calls to sack him after Rangers crashed out of Europe. Peter Martin, Alan Rough and the panel debate whether the Celtic juggernaut is already out of sight at the top of the league, ask whether Motherwell can pull off a shock against Freiburg in the Conference League playoff, and run the rule over the weekend's League Cup ties.

Peter Martin previews today's Football Show, LIVE at 4pm on PLZ Soccer. On the panel: Alan Rough, Tam McManus and Gordon Parks, digging into a dramatic night of European football. Transcript: Hi, I'm Peter Martin. Join us if you can on PLZ Soccer's YouTube channel. We're on live at 4:00 today. Myself, Alan Rough, Tam McManus and Gordon Parks will be discussing last night's European results, and looking ahead to the League Cup over Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I beg your pardon, because there's a small matter of an Ayr derby. Let's not forget Kilmarnock against Ayr United taking place tonight at Rugby Park. So, lots to talk about, lots to reflect on. Of course, I was at Fir Park watching the magic of Motherwell, seeing off HJK Helsinki. It was absolutely a joy to be there to watch the football that Motherwell played and how they defeated HJK by two goals going on three, four, five. They were really good. Good passing, good finishing by Ibrahim Said, and a really impressive all-round display, not only by the team, but the fans were absolutely fantastic. Just over 8,000 there to watch that match. Magical times at Motherwell. Elsewhere, worrying times at Rangers. A lot of people with knee-jerk reactions about Derek McInnes's side. Haven't got that win in his time as manager, four games, and a bit of panic now as they drop into the Europa Conference. Not great for Rangers. Not the level they want to be playing at. Everybody needs time to try and bed their team in. So Derek McInnes, the results haven't gone the w https://www.youtube.com/embed/RkvDgr9thA0 254 2026-08-14T10:44:19+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/johansson-hails-one-of-his-best-nights-as-motherwell-dump-hjk-out-of-europe-motherwell-2-0-hjk-UL8lGQfrUEM 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UL8lGQfrUEM/maxresdefault.jpg Johansson hails one of his best nights as Motherwell dump HJK OUT of Europe - Motherwell 2-0 HJK "It has to rank quite high." Motherwell manager Alfred Johansson reflects on one of the best nights of his managerial career after his side beat HJK Helsinki 2-0 at Fir Park to go through 3-1 on aggregate and into the next round of the Europa Conference League. Johansson praises the effort and belief of a squad still learning his style with barely any time to train between games, explains why he'll never treat a match as a burden, and looks ahead to Sunday's cup tie, with a charming go at the local pronunciation to finish.

Why do young players at clubs like Hearts, Hibs and Motherwell also struggle to break into the first team? Peter Martin is joined by Michael Grant and Hugh MacDonald to dig into the SFA's call for a summit on homegrown talent - why so few young Scottish players are breaking through, whether the academy system and the loan market are fit for purpose, and how you actually build a pathway to regular first-team football at the highest level. Honest, no-spin debate on one of the biggest questions in the Scottish game. The panel doesn't dodge the hard truths. They ask whether new SFA chief football officer Craig Mulholland and chief executive Ian Maxwell can actually change anything when the SFA holds so little power over the clubs, and why the summit risks repeating a debate we have had for 15 years. They dig into the roadblocks: clubs who would rather buy a League Two player than trust a 17-year-old, managers who daren't take the risk because three defeats and the fans want them sacked, and the vested interests behind the 12-team league and the broadcast deal that is built around four Old Firm derbies. Along the way: what the SFA's transition report got right (the cooperation loan agreements, and the clever attempt to appeal to clubs' finances through lower wage bills and future transfer income), why risk-taking has been coached out of young Scottish players, and how the old working-class production line that gave us Denis Law, Kenny Dalglish and Paul McStay has dried up in an era where kids no longer just take a ball out and play. There is real credit too for the clubs getting it right: Jens Berthel Askou's brave, expansive Motherwell, David Clarkson's academy pathway and the sale of Lennon Miller, and a Falkirk side that entertained and won its fans back. They also weigh the forces pulling talent away, from English academies picking off teenagers to the irresist https://www.youtube.com/embed/24SsbUv0auU 3569 2026-08-12T15:00:10+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/no-time-to-panic-the-football-show-live-qLZA6vc9V0A 2026-08-18T13:38:50+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLZA6vc9V0A/maxresdefault.jpg No time to panic | The Football Show LIVE Alex Rae believes Derek McInnes needs time to settle in and work out his best starting eleven at Rangers.

Neil McCann doesn't hide after Kilmarnock's 5-1 hammering by Celtic at Rugby Park, taking full responsibility for asking his side to play open and expansive - an approach that left them exposed on the counter and was severely punished. The Killie boss felt his team were the better side in the opening spell, but a lack of quality in the final third and a run of costly mistakes let Celtic run riot, with Kasper Høgh's first-half hat-trick putting the game beyond them by the break. McCann admits it's a step backwards, points to a big individual error for one of the goals, and turns his attention to a massive game on Friday. Fair from McCann to take the blame - or is there more to worry about for Kilmarnock? Let us know below.

Celtic tore Kilmarnock apart to go top of the Scottish Premiership - and it was all but over inside 35 minutes. Kasper Høgh helped himself to a stunning hat-trick, striking after just 2 minutes, then again on 33 and 35 to make it 3-0 at the break. Benjamin Nygren added a fourth straight after half-time (47'), and substitute Luke McCowan rounded off the rout with a fifth on 75. Michael Schjønning-Larsen grabbed a 56th-minute consolation for Neil McCann's side, who slip to 12th, but this was a chastening day for Killie. For Celtic it was as complete a 90 minutes as you'll see - mesmerising going forward and ominous for everyone else in the title race. And it made for perfect viewing for manager Martin O'Neill, still recovering from surgery and watching his side from home. All eyes now on what assistant Shaun Maloney makes of the display - and of a rampant number nine in Kasper Høgh. Celtic Post Match Press Conference Transcript: Q: Did you have any contact with Martin [O'Neill]? Was he offering instruction? Shaun Maloney: Not during the game, no. He was at the team hotel, he did the team meeting, he spoke to the players, and then he just said to the staff, "just get on with it," and I'll give him a shout after this. But I'm glad that when I see him, we've won. Q: But how pleasing is the manner of the win - because it was five going on ten? Shaun Maloney: Really pleased. I was really pleased with the creative part. There was about a five- or ten-minute period where the game felt 50/50 - Phil made a really good save - but even during that period we were creating, so I really liked that side of us. I really enjoyed how creative we were. But I'd say the platform for that came from our work without the ball - we worked really hard today.

Kasper Høgh helped himself to a stunning hat-trick, striking after just 2 minutes, then again on 33 and 35 to make it 3-0 at the break. Benjamin Nygren added a fourth straight after half-time (47'), and substitute Luke McCowan rounded off the rout with a fifth on 75. Michael Schjønning-Larsen grabbed a 56th-minute consolation for Neil McCann's side, who slip to 12th, but this was a chastening day for Killie.

Tam McManus believes Hibs fans are waiting for an excuse to call for David Gray's head at Hibs. Gordon Parks reckons Falkirk might have a battle to stay up this season. Predictions, arguments and Tam's hair dominate the show! Was it really that embarrassing? Peter Martin is joined by Alan Rough, Gordon Parks and Tam McManus for The Football Show, and they open on Rangers' European night - and the captaincy call that has everyone talking. Lawrence Shankland was named Rangers skipper barely a week ago, yet he was left out and only came on in the 85th minute, with vice-captain Dan Neil wearing the armband and getting hooked at half-time. Does the captain's armband still mean anything in the Scottish game? The panel don't all agree it was a disaster - there's a case that we underrate the quality of European opposition and that these qualifiers come too soon in the season - but there's no getting away from the money gap between the Champions League and the Europa League that Rangers now need to bridge on Celtic. They also send their best wishes to Celtic manager Martin O'Neill, who is recovering after surgery. With O'Neill, 74, out of hospital and in good spirits but a doubt for the dugout, the show asks the difficult questions about his health, his age and the added pressure of a Celtic board that fans are already turning on - with the club still chasing signings before the Champions League qualifier. Tam McManus doesn't hold back on Hibs: he reckons the fans are just waiting for an excuse to turn on David Gray. Gordon Parks makes the case that Falkirk could have a genuine relegation battle on their hands, there's a look at Kilmarnock v Celtic and Motherwell's European style of play, plus the panel's predictions for this weekend - and, inevitably, Tam's hair.

Dominating possession but right a little bit of ingenuity on his Dy managed to set up the Irishman who turned it in from close range. Marco Jorgenski got in behind, took advantage of some pretty weak defending and equalised, tucking the ball past Rafael Sal. But in the end, Hibs had too much for their North. Macedonian opponents O'Hora turning one in from the goal line after a scramble from a corner and he gets that win in the first leg.

Do I think we can play better? Yes. But winning games of football is difficult, especially in Europe - and it's only halftime in the tie."

Misery for some Scottish clubs in Europe. The misery continues for Scottish clubs in Europe. On a grim night across the Europa League and Conference League qualifiers, three of the four Scottish sides came away battered - and Derek McInnes was, in his own words, left raging at his defence. Rangers lost 2-1 away to Jagiellonia Bialystok. After a fortuitous early own goal handed them the lead, they fell apart at the back - two soft goals conceded, Fernandez caught out, and McInnes admitting it looked "like Rangers from last season." He still has to bolt the back door, but Rangers should have the quality to overturn the tie at Ibrox. Hearts were humiliated 6-1 by Benfica in Lisbon - a laughable first-half penalty and one calamitous goal after another. Robbie Vrancken's side have now shipped 12 goals in three European games and simply cannot defend; they drop into a Conference League play-off, with more misery likely at Tynecastle next Thursday. Motherwell drew with HJK Helsinki - full marks to Alfred Johansson's side, who stayed calm and took their penalty through the roof of the net, though ex-Celtic striker Teemu Pukki pulled one back. They have a fighting chance at Fir Park. Hibs were the one bright spot, beating Shkendija 2-1 - a brilliant flick from Owen Elding and a late Warren O'Hora winner - but David Gray's side looked nervy and travel to North Macedonia with plenty still to do. The bigger worry: Scottish football feels like it's on a downward trend, and the league structure and youth development both need addressing.

That is Stephen McGowan's verdict as The Journos return for a new season, and it frames a fractious few weeks at Celtic Park. Host Peter Martin is joined by Stephen McGowan and Hugh MacDonald to unpack the growing anger among Celtic supporters: a transfer window they see as too slow, a lack of trust between the board and the fans, and questions over Dermot Desmond, chief executive Michael Nicholson and a recruitment strategy that has left Martin O'Neill's side chasing signings before the Champions League play-off against LASK. With Brendan Rodgers gone and big earners like Arne Engels and Alistair Johnston the subject of interest, is the club spending enough - and is the board, not the manager, the real problem? Across the Old Firm divide, Hugh MacDonald argues it is already win-or-bust for Rangers boss Derek McInnes: nine new signings, no transition, and Graeme Souness warning he will be judged on the title alone. The panel debate whether McInnes has the width and service for Lawrence Shankland, whether Nicolas Raskin should be sold, and Thursday's European tie against Jagiellonia Bialystok. Also in this episode: a tribute to the late Franco Baresi and the greatest AC Milan side ever; Motherwell's promising start; Scotland's alarming European decline after Hearts' 6-0 loss to Sturm Graz and Hibs' exit to Kosovan minnows; whether Scottish football is still producing young players like Aaron Hickey and Ben Doak; and Gianni Infantino's 50/50 fight for FIFA survival amid the UEFA-FIFA fault line and a 64-team World Cup.

Celtic are up and running in the defence of their title: Benjamin Nygren's second-half header sealed a 1-0 win over Dundee on flag night at Celtic Park. In the market, Celtic and Rangers are both linked with the same winger, while Celtic could lose Alistair Johnston and Arne Engels to English clubs before their Champions League qualifier against LASK of Austria. Rangers have confirmed Nedim Bajrami's loan exit to Saudi Pro League side Al-Taawoun and agreed a deal for Hannover's Japanese winger Daisuke Yokota — as they head to Poland to face Jagiellonia Białystok after that opening-day draw at Dundee United. And on Monday's Football Show, Alex Rae argued that winning the league has to be Derek McInnes's number-one target. European week (Thursday): Hearts in Lisbon v Benfica, Motherwell in Finland v HJK Helsinki, and Hibs at home to Shkëndija.

The United boss was encouraged by plenty: a high-tempo, committed performance he felt edged the first 45, some strong individual displays and "some great passages of play." Lachlan Rose had the hosts ahead before Thelo Aasgaard levelled for Rangers just before the hour, and Goodwin admitted his side didn't manage the visitors' second-half reaction well enough. His one regret? A gilt-edged one-on-one that could have won it, Jesse Randall's late chance held by Ivor Pandur — "we need to make a better choice in that moment" — though Goodwin backed his forward to take it next time. "Neither of us were happy with the point," said Goodwin — the kind of performance he wants United producing consistently. Fair result, or two points dropped for Dundee United?

More than 20 years on from the 2003 UEFA Cup final run, Martin O'Neill finds himself back in the Celtic dugout and, once again, at the centre of the club's biggest off-field row in years: a widening split between large sections of the support and the majority shareholder and board. At the recent Association of Irish Celtic Supporters Clubs AGM, chief executive Michael Nicholson faced direct questions on why the champions have been so slow in the market — pointing to the difficulty of dealing with agents and competing financially with the Premier League and even the Championship. O'Neill, for his part, made clear he is in major need of signings, with the squad short of the quality required to compete at home and in Europe. With close to 60 days gone since the league was secured, only one new face had been added. Peter lays out both sides of the argument. THE SUPPORTERS' CASE — calls for greater transparency, better communication, a change in recruitment strategy and real ambition in Europe. Fans point to a run of chastening European exits (including Artmedia Bratislava, Maribor, Malmö, AEK Athens, Cluj, Midtjylland, Bodø/Glimt and Kairat Almaty), a poor away record on the continent, and the same late-window pattern of key men leaving without replacements arriving. THE BOARD'S CASE — nearly a quarter of a century of domestic dominance (20 league titles, 13 Scottish Cups, 11 League Cups), a financially robust club with substantial cash reserves, built on season-ticket loyalty, European income and shrewd player trading (Victor Wanyama, Virgil van Dijk, Matt O'Riley).

The Belgian, on a two-year deal at Tynecastle, sits down with Peter Martin to lay out his attacking philosophy and his ambition to go one step further than Derek McInnes, who took Hearts agonisingly close to the title: "We smelled the title last year — that's the nicest thing to play for." Vrancken on his style — "I like to have the ball, positive and constructive, with a lot of joy" — on working with Hearts' Jamestown Analytics recruitment model ("I've always worked like this — it's a communication, and that's essential"), and on the seven players already through the door at Tynecastle. ▶ Derek McInnes's first Rangers press conference: https://youtu.be/fy0cTg2FNZE ▶ Subscribe to PLZ Soccer: https://youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 ▶ Vote for the Top 50 Scottish Premiership players since 1975 (First Class Credit Union) — link in the comments ▶ Win a Land Rover Defender (or £35,000 cash) with Lucky Tiger — tickets half price, live draw 19 July ▶ Follow PLZ Soccer: X @PLZSoccer | Instagram @plzsoccer | TikTok @plzsoccer 💡 Add PLZ Soccer as a Preferred Source in your Google Search settings — get our Scottish football coverage surfaced in AI Overviews and AI Mode. #hearts #heartsfc #scottishfootball https://www.youtube.com/embed/DVZCKNJvQQs 258 2026-06-25T16:11:58+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/win-the-league-as-quickly-as-possible-fy0cTg2FNZE 2026-10-13T21:06:04+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fy0cTg2FNZE/maxresdefault.jpg Win the League as quickly as possible "We've got to make teams suffer."

Because not only are we talking about people from Boston, but the American people have been so welcoming, so friendly, so kind, as we know as a nation the American people are. Yeah, they do. And it's not just the football — or the soccer, they call it over there. They're going to the baseball. The atmosphere at that baseball game — you've seen the baseball players getting interviewed after it thinking, I've never seen anything like it in my life. There's been big playoff games. Boston's a huge sports city: the Bruins, the Patriots, the Red Sox, the Boston Celtics. It's a big town for sport. And they've had some big parades — St Patrick's is huge over there — and they've never seen anything like the Tartan Army. So I think that says a lot. #USA #WorldCup2026 #Scotland #TartanArmy #shorts https://www.youtube.com/embed/OcoqIVG9mRk 78 2026-06-22T18:52:49+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/danny-rohl-was-a-failure-verdict-as-rohl-leaves-rangers-rangers-rangersfc-rangersfcnewstoday-G5nTxDDsOPM 2026-10-13T21:06:03+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/G5nTxDDsOPM/maxresdefault.jpg 'Danny Röhl was a failure' — Verdict as Röhl leaves Rangers #rangers #rangersfc #rangersfcnewstoday "Danny Röhl was a failure" at Rangers - Peter Martin's verdict as Rangers confirm Röhl has left for RB Salzburg after eight months at Ibrox — 40 games, 22 wins, two cup defeats to Celtic, and a fourth-place finish. Now Derek McInnes is expected to take charge as the next Rangers FC manager. ▶ Colin Hendry called it — McInnes for Rangers: https://youtu.be/VkSKgO41PDg ▶ Subscribe to PLZ Soccer: https://youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 Transcript: Rangers have confirmed that Danny Röhl has parted company with the club and has moved to RB Salzburg as their new coach. So, eight months in charge, it all comes to an end. And the overall assessment for me is that Danny Röhl was a failure. The stats back that up. 40 games, only 22 wins, 11 defeats over that eight months in charge. Two cup defeats to Celtic, which hit hard among the Rangers support. Yes, he did steady the ship after Russell Martin's debacle, but coming in he raised that expectation, made them more solid — but they were looking for the end product. The Rangers fans were looking for something to hang on to, and they didn't get it with him. In his pre-match press conferences he was talking about, well, there's five cup finals in the post-split run, and he only delivered one win at the end when it was meaningless — because four defeats out of five is simply not good enough. Second is nowhere in Glasgow. Second is not good enough for Rangers fans. Third is completely unacceptable. Many were looking at him and thinking, well, what is he going to do in that summer transfer window? Can he actually close the gap? Can he go past Hearts? Can he take the title off Celtic? The answer is we'll never know — because quite simply a lot of people thought he was working his ticket out. There were suggestions that this club and that club were interested in him, and eventually he's confirmed what everybody thought and taken up that job in Austria. So overall, I don't think too many Rangers fans will be crying any https://www.youtube.com/embed/G5nTxDDsOPM 133 2026-06-17T14:14:33+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/it-makes-you-proud-to-be-scottish-tartan-army-takes-over-boston-scotland-tartanarmy-worldcup-KUTUgpkOb64 2026-10-13T21:06:03+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KUTUgpkOb64/maxresdefault.jpg 'It makes you proud to be Scottish' — Tartan Army takes over Boston #scotland #tartanarmy #worldcup "It makes you proud to be Scottish."

Hugh MacDonald, Stephen McGowan and the Journos panel break down the most consequential Celtic appointment of the post-Rodgers era. Keane (45) met Dermot Desmond on Monday after resigning from Ferencváros and is reported as the board's preferred candidate, willing to commit to a three-year contract. The Celtic fanbase is split — fan media (ReadCeltic, Football Insider) running hard against the appointment; Hugh's position on the Journos is that the irrational opposition is doing the club no favours. The panel also turns to Scotland's World Cup build-up — why Steve Clarke's side cannot take victory over Haiti for granted in the warm-up window. Celtic's next-manager decision is the biggest call of the off-season; the panel returns to the topic every week until it lands. Subscribe for the full Journos episode + clips.

"Lawrence is somebody I've worked with closely. He's at the best he's ever been at now. In the last two or three years his progression has been better than probably most in the squad. He's had challenges and moments where it's not been good, but he's rebound. Fantastic season.

I think the one with Clement, well, they, I think they went to Ross County and Dundee, I think they drew an ill-known, get beat after Ross County 3-2. That season, they needed a goal scorer, and I think this season, I think on all the Rangers, I've probably scored the most goals in the league, but I think just adding him into that, I think he gets you another 20-25 goals and that could be the difference as well, so I think he's a difference maker and I think he's a fantastic sign in for Rangers. https://www.youtube.com/embed/t3ao6gAN3Ck 37 2026-05-25T21:12:56+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/st-mirren-vs-partick-thistle-atmosphere-is-electric-spfl-partickthistle-stmirren-G09z21M0lcs 2026-08-09T12:19:47+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/G09z21M0lcs/maxresdefault.jpg St Mirren vs Partick Thistle Atmosphere is ELECTRIC #spfl #partickthistle #stmirren St Mirren vs Partick Thistle LIVE - SPFL playoff final 2nd leg.

Neil Lennon delivers a defiant reflection on the Scottish Cup Final defeat to Celtic, hitting out at "pundits who have amnesia" and drawing on his own glittering managerial career of "incredible highs and incredible lows." "Listen, it's a brilliant experience. You get a lot of pundits who have amnesia, right? You know, they always talk about the wins. Everybody loses, finals, leagues. I've lost league titles on the last day, I've lost cup finals... All the great managers have had upsides and incredible highs and incredible lows." Lennon also speaks about being "proud of everyone associated with the club" and how the Cup Final experience drives him to "keep coming back for more." A masterclass in defiant post-match reaction from one of Scottish football's most experienced and divisive managers. "I think it's his decision. I think it should be his decision whether he wants to stay on or not. And only he can answer that. So I think the club should let him say what he wants to do. I think he's put himself in the best position. I don't see many other candidates out there that could do what he's done this season. And it doesn't surprise me. So if he stays on, great. If he doesn't, then again the club should do something for him in terms of the recognition that he's brought to the club in two spells." The most pointed line: "I don't see many other candidates out there that could do what he's done this season." That's Lennon — the man whose Dunfermline side just lost to O'Neill's Celtic — publicly saying nobody else is a better fit.

O'Neill reveals talks with Celtic owner Dermot Desmond next week, and drops the biggest hint yet that he won't take the job long-term, hours after lifting the Scottish Cup at Hampden. Speaking after the Cup Final, O'Neill confirmed he'll meet Dermot Desmond next week to discuss his future — but the line that matters is what came after: "I would be thinking that the football club, to go forward properly, would probably be looking at somebody younger." The full Martin O'Neill verdict: "I'll have to have a think. I think in the next week I'll meet up with the owner, see what he's saying. He hasn't said anything to me, so I don't know whether that's good news or bad news. But I will genuinely have a wee look at it to see." "But I would be thinking that the football club, to go forward properly, would probably be looking at somebody younger." Reading between the lines: O'Neill knows the trophy he just lifted is his swan song. The interim becomes the legacy. And the search for the NEXT Celtic manager — Robbie Keane, Roberto Martinez, or somebody else entirely — accelerates from here. What's your call?

Scottish Cup Final predictions from Dunfermline fans at Hampden — and the Pars faithful are NOT bothered by Celtic's 13-time-winners pedigree. We asked 5 Dunfermline supporters for their Cup Final scoreline. Every single one had the Pars winning. 🟡⚫ THE PARS PREDICTIONS: "2-1 to the Pars. Carl Morrison and Andy Todd." "1-0 to us, final minute. Carl Morrison." "2-1 Pars. Gilmore, brace." "10-0 Dunfermline Athletic victory… and then we do it all again next year." "1-0 or we go to penalties and win." Not a single Dunfermline fan picked Celtic to lift the trophy on Saturday. The mood at Hampden is pure underdog conviction — Carl Morrison gets multiple shouts as the matchwinner, Andy Todd backed for a goal, and Gilmore tipped for a brace. The 10-0 prediction was a joke. The 2-1 to the Pars? That one had multiple fans behind it. The bookmakers may have Celtic at heavy favourite, but on the streets outside Hampden, this Cup Final has already been won.

We asked Celtic fans at the Scottish Cup Final at Hampden — and the verdict was split. PLZ Soccer's vox-pop with Celtic supporters outside Hampden on Cup Final day captures the moment when "what next for Celtic" stopped being a TV studio question and started being a supporter conversation. Four fans, four different verdicts — but a common thread. 🟢 The case for KEEPING Martin O'Neill as Celtic manager: "What Martin O'Neill has done for Celtic Football Club this season is unbelievable… he deserves a seat at a table. This is his final swan song today perhaps. Let's get behind the team, let's get behind Martin — if he's there next year, he gets my vote." 🔴 The case for THANKING HIM and moving on: "Martin's an absolute legend and we'll probably put a statue up of him. I think he deserves a position within the club. But for all the great he's done this season, I think we just cap that off, thank him for what he's done, and take the next steps forward." 🟢 The "let him enjoy life" angle: "I'd always want Martin O'Neill — I think he's a legend and always will be. There should be a statue. But I'd rather he just took time out and enjoyed life now. He needs to relax a bit, and I'm sure his family thinks the same." ⚖️ The conditional yes: "It wouldn't be my first choice, but you can't argue against it, can you? If he wins a double, he's come in twice and absolutely changed the club. But it'd need to be a year, maybe two max — can't be anything more than that." So — what's YOUR verdict?

With Martin O'Neill leading Celtic into the Scottish Cup Final at Hampden on Saturday, the next Celtic manager question is no longer about Cup Final coaching — it's about what happens AFTER the trophy is decided.

Five minutes on Neil Lennon, the pitch-invasion debate, what comes next, and whether Saturday could be his last as Celtic manager. The full press conference covers seven beats: 00:00 The INCENSED Neil Lennon photo moment "He was incensed. He wasn't happy with me for not being here in time. I don't think he was happy with 'master and pupil' because we're about the same age. (No, we're not.) But he's calmed down now a little bit." 01:07 "Neil Lennon has been fantastic for me as a player" "Absolutely fantastic. Pulled it round at Leicester City when I needed help big time. I chased him for about six months. Finally got him. His record at this football club — as a player and as a manager — is unsurpassed." 01:50 Neil Lennon as a manager "What he's done did not surprise me. He had it within him. It's there in his character." 02:36 Martin O'Neill Mind games? "I was not playing mind games with him. Not at all. But he was really angry." 03:08 How does Martin O'Neill feel ahead of the Scottish Cup Final? "Despite the fact you've questioned me about pitch invasions, I'm great. I'm really looking forward to the game. Winning the league is like a weight off your shoulders — you've been carrying it around for some time." 03:55 Martin O'Neill's last game as Celtic manager? "You young man will be the last person to find out. Don't you ever, ever question me again." On retirement: "You're young enough to be my son... or grandson, more to the point." 04:30 Dermot Desmond meeting + the trophy "Anything we want to discuss would be after Saturday. I would love to win. I'd really love to win." 05:01 "I'm up against a very, very angry young man." Celtic chase the treble. Dunfermline chase their first Scottish Cup in 58 years.

Neil Lennon pays tribute to his old boss Martin O'Neill 24 hours before they face each other at Hampden in the Scottish Cup Final. "He teaches you how to win. I was very, very lucky that I had ten years of Martin in his pomp. Everyone talks about what he did here [Celtic] — what he did at Leicester was incredible. Getting promotion, then four top-ten finishes in the Premier League, three League Cup Finals — on a fraction of a budget compared to the rest. If that was a modern-day manager now, you'd be going to Bayern Munich, or somewhere like that." Two managers. One Hampden final. A privilege walking out — and a determination to take down his old boss. Saturday's Cup Final is the longest 90 minutes Lennon will ever spend in the technical area at Hampden.

Hearts owner Tony Bloom made the "two of their players were assaulted" claim on talkSPORT — O'Neill says the press never followed up. "Obviously the statement was dealing with me, and so I'm surprised that no one has further investigated these assault charges. I thought that Mr Bloom might have been questioned a wee bit further by Jim in that — but seemingly not."

The full press conference covers seven beats: 00:00 Tony Bloom TalkSPORT — "It's obviously aimed at me" "...because of what I said in talkSPORT to Jim. Tony Bloom said two of their players were assaulted. If that's the case, that would be a deep apology from all of us at Celtic Park. That has not been proved.

Leverkusen two seasons ago. Kilmarnock when they got promotion. "Pitch invasions are not new at the end of the day." 02:55 Martin O'Neill on Hearts' club statements "If Hearts had beaten us at Tynecastle and their fans spilled onto the pitch in euphoric glee, I think I would have some understanding of that. I think I would." 04:08 Does Martin O'Neill condemn Celtic supporters? "Condemn? In any circumstance? No, I don't think I would. I don't think I would condemn supporters in any way." "It won't be taken out of the game. I'll tell you something now. I bet you there'll be another pitch invasion in the next 10 years if a team wins a league or a cup." 05:10 O'Neill's message to Celtic fans at Hampden "If you're coming on in great numbers and people are in fear, that's a different issue.

I couldn't ask for anyone better to learn from. And it doesn't surprise me what he's done this season, even at the grand age of 73. He's an amazing guy. He's also an amazing manager.

"These people should be hammered." Andrew Dallas and John Beaton as officials who can't go about their daily life because they're scared of what's going to happen to their family. The verdict: the SPFL, the SFA, politicians and the courts should be sending a clear message to anyone who posts a referee's address, who attacks players, or who goads them at a point where it could become threatening. Pitch invasion with sectarian abuse. Pitch invasion with attacking players. Intimidating officials at their place of work. The panel argues the answer isn't more analysis — it's accountability. Where do you stand? Comment below — should the courts come down hard, or is football's own discipline structure enough? Transcript: "I also think one thing that I would say, Hugh — if there's going to be this forensic approach to analysing where there's been wrongdoing, I also think that the Scottish authorities — the SPFL, the SFA and a number of people, including politicians — should be looking and saying to the courts, let's send a message out to people who think it's OK to post a referee's address, to look back and make people's lives very, very uneasy — because they're at their place of work, trying to do a job to the best of their ability. I think you've got to send a message out in the courts to hammer the people who have been found guilty of pitch invasion with sectarian abuse, pitch invasion with attacking players, or intimidating them, or goading them at a point where it could become threatening for a player. Referees, VAR assistants who can't go about their daily life — and I'm speaking here about the Andrew Dallas and John Beaton of the world — who can't go about their daily life because they're scared of what's going to happen to their family.

Rough joined Hibs in the early 1980s after his Scotland 1978 and 1982 World Cup heroics with Partick Thistle.

"He sent me a brilliant message yesterday morning… took a lot from that, and no doubt I'll speak to him before tomorrow." Derek McInnes confirms Sir Alex Ferguson has been in touch with messages of support ahead of Saturday's SPFL Premiership title decider against Celtic at Celtic Park, 12:30 KO. 🟦 DEREK McINNES — VERBATIM: "I know you sometimes chat to Sir Alex. Have you had a chat this week?" "Yeah, at the end of the week — before the Falkirk game. And he sent me a brilliant message yesterday morning. A brilliant message actually. Took a lot from that, and no doubt I'll speak to him before tomorrow." 🟦 WHY THE FERGUSON CONNECTION MATTERS: - Sir Alex Ferguson is the most decorated British football manager in history - He won the Premier League 13 times with Manchester United + the Champions League twice - Before that, he won the SPFL title with Aberdeen in 1979-80, 1983-84, 1984-85 — the last team OUTSIDE the Old Firm to win the Scottish top flight - Hearts would be the second team to break the Old Firm duopoly since Aberdeen in 1985 - McInnes is a former Aberdeen player + manager — direct Ferguson lineage 🟦 THE SATURDAY DECIDER: - Celtic vs Hearts at Celtic Park, 12:30 KO - Hearts: win OR draw = first SPFL title since 1959-60 - Celtic: must win - 60,000 Celtic Park crowd, 750 Hearts tickets 🟦 RELATED — THE TITLE-DECIDER CLUSTER: ▶️ McInnes pre-decider FULL press conf: https://youtu.be/TRd39CDjetc ▶️ Can Hearts become champions tomorrow? https://youtube.com/shorts/42zGOK1MUhM ▶️ CELTIC VS HEARTS Preview Special | The Football Show LIVE: https://youtu.be/8yGijHFLAcs ▶️ "It's DISGUSTING" — Derek McInnes on the Celtic penalty: https://youtu.be/jHIQSJ1QVlQ ▶️ Peter Martin opinion 'The Showdown' — Celtic vs Hearts: https://youtu.be/t7N6U200VRM 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for Saturday's title-decider coverage live from Celtic Park: https://www.youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_con https://www.youtube.com/embed/0fu6-rKEVR8 21 2026-05-16T10:24:32+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/we-write-our-own-scripts-derek-mcinnes-press-conference-celtic-vs-hearts-TRd39CDjetc 2026-10-21T21:10:26+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TRd39CDjetc/maxresdefault.jpg ‘We write OUR OWN scripts’ | Derek McInnes Press Conference | Celtic vs Hearts ‘We write OUR OWN scripts’ | Derek McInnes Press Conference | Celtic vs Hearts - "We write our own scripts."

The Hearts manager talks belief, courage, the Sir Alex Ferguson messages, and the "pure box office" final-day showdown. 🟦 DEREK McINNES — VERBATIM: "Tomorrow with everything it entails — that just gets amplified. It's pure box office. It's been a long time, I think, since both teams who could win the title go head-to-head." "The confidence I feel in the players is so strong. We have to go there with courage. We have to go there with belief and be bullish with our work." "There might be a feeling that people think everything's back on script now — Celtic won their home game, won the league, and that's what Celtic have done for the last wee while, they've been the team that win more titles. But we've ripped the script up so often this season and we've got one more in us, I think. It's up to us to try and make that happen." 🟦 ON SIR ALEX FERGUSON: "Earlier in the week, yeah, ahead of the Falkirk game. And he sent me a brilliant message yesterday morning.

Every domestic trophy. And it ended with him walking out of the stadium in a suit, having to be talked back in. "It was also my wish that he gets a proper goodbye." Danny Rohl pushes back on the James Tavernier walkout narrative — Rangers' manager explains his priorities for the 13 May game against Hibernian at Ibrox, what he told the captain about start vs bench, and what the perfect Tavernier send-off would have looked like. 🟦 DANNY ROHL — VERBATIM: "I think general, when you come to a point where we are now, then of course we can reflect and can say 'okay maybe at this point and this point we could speak more in detail.' But I think I was from the first part very clear and open to him. And I think it was the reason why it was also my wish and suggest that he gets a proper goodbye on Wednesday." "But also this time I always said him 'it could be you start, it could be you come from the bench — this is not the point.'" "If you ask me what was in my head for this day, it was — at first, take three points, win a game.

"That's back-to-back wins now at two very difficult places — and it sets up nicely for next weekend." David Gray on Hibs' 1-2 win at Ibrox keeping them alive in the SPFL European-spot race against Motherwell. Saturday's Hibs v Motherwell decides who finishes in the European place. 🟢 DAVID GRAY ON THE WIN: "We spoke about it being all about us, and making sure the only scenario for us to take it to the last day was to win. We knew that. And I'm delighted for the players because of what they put in, how they've stuck together over a difficult period — the start of the split especially. That's back-to-back wins now at two very difficult places. And it sets up nicely for next weekend." 🟢 GRAY ON THE FINAL 10-15 MINUTES: "The players found a way to stay in the game through difficult moments. We were clinical when we needed to be. When you look at how the game sort of panned out the last sort of 10-15 minutes, we knew we had to win. So you throw caution to the wind, you get open a bit more expansive. Players knew that — they drove forward and went and got what they needed in the end. That goal got us the three points." 🟢 ON MONITORING THE MOTHERWELL-CELTIC SCORE: "If Motherwell scored, the home fans would let me know. And if Celtic had scored, I'm pretty sure my fans would let us know — so that proved to be the case." 🟢 THE CONTEXT: - Hibs win 2-1 at Ibrox — Rangers' final home game ended in defeat - Motherwell were 2-2 with Celtic at Fir Park until Iheanacho's last-second penalty winner for Celtic - Hibs catch Motherwell in the European-place race going into Saturday's final fixtures - Saturday: Hibs v Motherwell head-to-head decides who finishes in Europe - (Same Saturday slot: Hearts v Celtic at Celtic Park, 12:30 KO — SPFL title decider) 🟢 RELATED — HIBS POST-MATCH SHORT FROM SAME PRESS CONFERENCE: ▶️ David Gray: 'My fans let me know when Celtic scored' | Hibs v Motherwell — all to play for https://www.youtube.com/embed/ksdi_veNSrE 174 2026-05-14T13:29:59+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/its-all-to-play-for-between-hibs-and-motherwell-on-saturday-hibs-spfl-1JhF_MDf9Is 2026-10-13T21:06:04+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1JhF_MDf9Is/maxresdefault.jpg 🥬 It’s all to play for between Hibs and Motherwell on Saturday #hibs #spfl David Gray: 'My fans let me know when Celtic scored' | Hibs v Motherwell — all to play for Saturday.🥬 #hibs #spfl "If Motherwell scored, the home fans would let me know.

David Gray reveals how he kept track of the Motherwell v Celtic title-race drama during Hibs' own SPFL match on Tuesday — and what Saturday's Hibs v Motherwell European-spot decider means. 🟢 DAVID GRAY ON MONITORING MOTHERWELL-CELTIC LIVE: "That proved to be the case. I knew within the game that it went — Motherwell had equalized. Or Celtic went, Motherwell equalizing — and you felt that. And then right at the very end, once we go 2-1 up, there's obviously another roar after our final whistle, which was only going to be for one thing." 🟢 ON HIBS' EUROPEAN-SPOT RACE: "I'm thankful tonight the results have went our way, which we needed because of our slower start post-split.

"He didn't accept that he will not start today, and then he stayed away from the team — and that is the story." Danny Rohl confirms James Tavernier walked out of Rangers' final home game of the season after being told he wouldn't start the farewell match at Ibrox. Rangers lost 1-2 to Hibernian. Rohl signals a "strong cut" coming this summer. 🔴 ROHL ON THE TAVERNIER WALKOUT: "The full picture today is a mural from some things on and off the pitch. I was very transparent with [Tav]. I thought and I wished him that he get some minutes. You can think about, yeah, start or not start — I think this is exactly my decision because this is the reason why I'm the manager. And finally, he didn't accept that he will not start today — and then he stayed away from the team. And that is the story." 🔴 THE BUILD-UP: "James was going to get an injection on Tuesday. Then my thought because I thought, po, this is maybe his last chance to play at home. I gave him a call — yeah, the call was then okay. And convinced him that he can move this injection maybe later. He said, 'Yeah, okay.' He will be available for today." 🔴 ROHL ON A SUMMER OVERHAUL: "Today it showed me that we need a strong cut, strong changes to move forward. We cannot accept what we saw in the last four games — and this is what is our job, and especially yeah with me in lead to have for all these things. I will not accept this in the future and I'm very clear what we should do." 🔴 THE CONTEXT: - Rangers 1-2 Hibernian at Ibrox, 13 May 2026 — final home game of Rangers' season - James Tavernier was leaving Rangers — this was supposed to be his Ibrox farewell - He was on the bench, walked out of the squad after being told he wouldn't start - Rangers finish 3rd, miss the Champions League windfall — see The Journos "catastrophic" verdict - One final SPFL fixture remains — Rangers off to a flat end 🔴 RELATED — TONIGHT'S TITLE-RACE DRAMA: ▶️ "One of the MOST https://www.youtube.com/embed/WxPFHPb5ypk 224 2026-05-14T12:11:40+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/peter-martin-opinion-the-showdown-celtic-vs-hearts-t7N6U200VRM 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/t7N6U200VRM/maxresdefault.jpg Peter Martin opinion ‘The Showdown’ - Celtic vs Hearts Celtic vs Hearts: Was it a penalty? Will Celtic or Hearts win the Scottish Premiership? Peter Martin gives it to you straight. "The most dramatic of days witnessed in the Scottish Premiership for many a year — you might have to go back to Helicopter Sunday to witness what we witnessed." Peter Martin's opinion on Tuesday's title-race drama at Tynecastle and Fir Park — and what happens at Celtic Park on Saturday in the SPFL title decider. 🔵 PETER MARTIN ON THE NIGHT THAT WAS: "Two incredible games. One at Tynecastle and the other one at Fir Park. There were two moments at Tynecastle where Hearts had both hands on the trophy and Derek McInnes was going to be celebrating a title win — but the drama that unfolded at Fir Park was absolutely incredible. I've never seen it in many a long year." 🔵 ON THE HANDBALL THAT KEPT CELTIC ALIVE: "2-2 in a dramatic game full of incident — and then right at the death, a throw-in in which Sam Nicholson's arm goes up against Austin Trusty, and nobody on the ground I think thought there was a penalty..." 🔵 THE SHOWDOWN — SATURDAY AT CELTIC PARK: Hearts v Celtic, 12:30 KO. Winner takes all. Hearts need a win to be Premiership champions. Celtic need a win to clinch back-to-back titles after the comeback that began with the Iheanacho last-second penalty at Fir Park. 🔵 RELATED — TUESDAY 13 MAY 2026 DRAMA: ▶️ Could Hearts WIN the league tonight? | Derek McInnes https://youtu.be/T8x8fXQPeNg ▶️ Hearts could WIN the SPFL title TONIGHT! 🔴 LIVE | The Football Show https://youtu.be/TBhL0gugvq0 ▶️ "One of the MOST DRAMATIC GAMES EVER!" — Motherwell 2-3 Celtic https://youtube.com/shorts/RX_KnpBTKqg ▶️ Martin O'Neill: 'The lads thought it was a penalty.

A handball. And also looks as if an elbow as well." Martin O'Neill reflects on Celtic's dramatic last-second penalty winner against Motherwell — the decision that keeps Celtic alive in the SPFL title race and sends the championship to the final weekend at Celtic Park. 🟢 MARTIN O'NEILL ON THE LATE-PENALTY DECISION: "Well, the lads have a little monitor beside me. It's very very small. I can't really see it too — need another pair of glasses. And the lads thought it looked as if it was a pen-handball. And also looks as if an elbow as well too. But listen — I thought we had a penalty in the first half. VAR cleared that one. So I wasn't sure." 🟢 ON CELTIC'S CHARACTER + THE COMEBACK: "I thought the team — I know you'd know what I'm going to say — but we have shown a lot of character. We make mistakes during the course of the game, it's natural. Took a long, long way off after Tannadice. We've taken it to the final game, which is brilliant." 🟢 ON THE TITLE RACE — WINNER TAKES ALL AT CELTIC PARK: "We have to win the game. Hearts don't have to win it. But at least we've taken it there. And it'll be a big day. It's nice to take it into the final game — which looked a long, long, long way off with what, five or six weeks ago." 🟢 THE CONTEXT: - Motherwell 2-3 Celtic at Fir Park, 13 May 2026 - Last-second penalty for Celtic - Hearts could NOT clinch the SPFL title tonight at Tynecastle - Title now goes to Saturday's Hearts v Celtic at Celtic Park, 12:30 KO — winner takes all 🟢 THE COMPANION SHORT — JOE MILLER'S REACTION: ▶️ "One of the MOST DRAMATIC GAMES EVER!" — Motherwell 2-3 Celtic https://youtube.com/shorts/RX_KnpBTKqg 🟢 RELATED — TONIGHT'S TITLE STORY: ▶️ Could Hearts WIN the league tonight? | Derek McInnes https://youtu.be/T8x8fXQPeNg ▶️ Hearts could WIN the SPFL title TONIGHT! 🔴 LIVE | The Football Show https://youtu.be/TBhL0gugvq0 ▶️ Rohl Needs A Clear Out | The Journos https://youtu.be/zDgj7YaScN8 🟢 PR https://www.youtube.com/embed/Jl1piObJ95g 99 2026-05-13T23:47:36+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/one-of-the-most-dramatic-games-ever-motherwell-2-3-celtic-celtic-celticfc-RX_KnpBTKqg 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RX_KnpBTKqg/maxresdefault.jpg "One of the MOST DRAMATIC GAMES EVER!" - Motherwell 2 3 Celtic #celtic #celticfc Motherwell 2-3 Celtic - One of the most dramatic football matches you're likely to ever see.

Peter Martin and Joe Miller at Fir Park as Celtic snatch a last-second penalty winner against Motherwell — keeping themselves alive in the SPFL title race and sending the championship to the final weekend at Celtic Park. 🟢 THE LATE-PENALTY DRAMA: "A penalty in the last second. Celtic forward steps up — cool as ice, puts it in the back of the net." Joe Miller's verdict: "Unbelievable. Unbelievable. There's people shouting for a statue — but my god does he carry some luck. Credit to all the players. They worked their socks off. Every single one of them, even the subs that came on. The last kick of the ball to stick it in the back of the net.

The Journos assess how many can stay and who goes. "Rohl needs to rebuild Rangers." Hugh McDonald, Gordon Parks and Peter Martin examine Danny Rohl's summer rebuild after a season Hugh calls "a catastrophic end" — and the Champions League windfall of £40-50 million Rangers have just blown. Which 3-4 players survive the cull? What does Rohl actually need to do this summer to turn it around? ⚫ HUGH McDONALD ON RANGERS' CATASTROPHIC SEASON: "This is a catastrophic failure from Rangers. If Rangers had won the league, they would be right into the Champions League — so it's 40, 50 million pounds. The 16 million pound share issue, which nobody's talking about at the moment, would have been subscribed. It's a catastrophic end of season for Rangers." ⚫ GORDON PARKS ON ROHL'S SYSTEM PROBLEM: "They don't know how to go forward. They don't know how to be absolutely ruthless. There's no system that he's using. I can't work it out. All he's really done is made them more difficult to get beat. He's solidified them a wee bit." ⚫ THE RANGERS SQUAD REBUILD — WHO STAYS, WHO GOES: The panel debate who Rohl needs to keep and who needs to go. The keeper stays. The Romans (intelligent on the ball) stays. Connor Barron stays. Possibly Mikey Moore back on loan. Maybe Fernandes "if he improves." Otherwise — "I want most of them gone. I want maybe four, maximum of five." ⚫ ON ROHL'S BIGGEST PROBLEM — GETTING THEM OUT THE DOOR: "Danny Rohl's biggest problem, if he is going to have to stay, how's he getting out the door and how's he getting them out? Because I don't see a stampede for any of them." ⚫ ON ROHL'S BODY LANGUAGE + DRESSING-ROOM CULTURE: "He's got to deliver a message to the fans that's not Jimmy Tilleen. I want my manager to come in and say: we need to fight, and by the way, if you don't fight, you're out the door." The panel call Rangers' current dressing room "self-serving" and warn that the 49ers will struggle t https://www.youtube.com/embed/zDgj7YaScN8 3697 2026-05-13T15:00:06+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/could-hearts-win-the-league-tonight-derek-mcinnes-T8x8fXQPeNg 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/T8x8fXQPeNg/maxresdefault.jpg Could Hearts WIN the league tonight? | Derek McInnes Could Hearts WIN the Scottish Premiership tonight? | Derek McInnes | "I've got an unshakable belief that we can do this." Hearts vs Falkirk: Hearts manager Derek McInnes confirms his squad's mindset before Tynecastle could be the venue for one of the most historic SPFL title clinches of a generation — and gives an emotional update on the double Achilles injury blow to Marco and Craig Halkett. 🟦 McINNES ON THE TITLE BELIEF: "Any lads who have come in as replacements have never let us down. We've got players who come in and do the job for us. And I've got an unshakable belief that we can do this. The squad feel that as well. It's an extra wee bit of motivation for us if we needed any more, that two players have played a big part [in the season]." 🟦 McINNES ON THE TITLE SCENARIO: "I just assumed that Celtic are going to win the game. I've had in my head that we are going to the last game and I'm prepared for that. Listen, there's no easy games for anybody. Nothing's straightforward. Motherwell are a more than capable team — as we saw the other night, they were fully committed against us. I'm sure that'll be the same again against Celtic tomorrow." 🟦 McINNES ON A HISTORIC NIGHT AT TYNECASTLE: "It's actually nice to even hear that Hearts could win the league at Tynecastle. I don't know how many people have been able to say that in a lifetime, you know. But listen, the likelihood is if we're going to win the league, we're going to have to win two games — or certainly pick up four points from the next two games." 🟦 McINNES ON THE DOUBLE ACHILLES INJURY: "Both Marco and Craig got operated in London yesterday morning. Both Achilles ruptures and significant injuries — both about 7-9 months probably. We managed to set up a scan and an appointment with the expert down in London, and both lads flew down Sunday afternoon for their operation. Marco travels to Birmingham today and Craig will come back to Glasgow with a physio. Terrible news.

Stephen Robinson rips into his Aberdeen squad's mentality after a flat 0-2 home defeat to St Mirren — and warns of a major summer rebuild at Pittodrie. 🔴 ROBINSON RIPS THE FIRST-HALF: "It lacked intensity. We passed the ball too slowly. We moved the ball backwards, sideways, without hurting them — and that's not what we've done for the last six games." 🔴 THE MENTALITY VERDICT: "Subconsciously, some of the players turned up tonight to come and play an end-of-season game. St Mirren turned up with an intensity fighting for their lives. There was no intensity in the game. That's not how my teams play." 🔴 THE SUMMER WARNING: "What it's shown me is there is a big job in terms of the summer recruitment — and a big job to make sure we're going in the right direction." 🔴 THE CONTEXT: - Aberdeen beaten 2-0 at home by St Mirren — Tuesday 12 May 2026 - Reds finish the season without European qualification certainty - St Mirren's Craig McLeish takes another huge result in his fight to stay up - Robinson signals an aggressive summer rebuild at Pittodrie 🔴 FULL POST-MATCH REACTION: For more from the Pittodrie reaction — Robinson on individual performances, the squad rebuild list, and the European race — watch the full Football Show coverage on the PLZ Soccer channel. 🔴 NEXT FIXTURE: 🆚 Aberdeen's final SPFL fixtures — full schedule on plzsoccer.com 🎙️ MORE FROM PLZ SOCCER THIS WEEK: ▶️ Craig McLeish: "We're gonna fight until the very end" | Aberdeen 0-2 St Mirren reaction https://youtu.be/HomkueS81gw ▶️ The Football Show LIVE — daily Scottish football debate ▶️ The Journos — every weekend on PLZ Soccer 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for daily Scottish football coverage from PLZ Soccer: https://www.youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 📲 FOLLOW PLZ Soccer: 🐦 X / Twitter: https://twitter.com/PLZSoccer 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/plzso https://www.youtube.com/embed/g6s9e5xRo7E 90 2026-05-12T22:19:10+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/craig-mcleish-were-gonna-fight-until-the-very-end-aberdeen-0-2-st-mirren-reaction-HomkueS81gw 2026-10-13T21:06:04+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HomkueS81gw/maxresdefault.jpg Craig McLeish: “We’re gonna fight until the very end” | Aberdeen 0-2 St Mirren reaction Craig McLeish St Mirren post match interview: “We’re gonna fight until the very end” | Aberdeen 0-2 St Mirren reaction. Craig McLeish's St Mirren beat Aberdeen 2-0 at Pittodrie — and the interim boss tells PLZ Soccer his rebuild is working, three wins from three games as he fights to keep Saints in the Premiership. 🔴 MCLEISH ON THE WIN: "I can't ask any more from the boys. They were fantastic. The biggest thing — they fought for each other. They stuck together. There were some tough moments within the game but I thought we thoroughly deserved our win." 🔴 THE TURNAROUND UNDER MCLEISH: "When I took over the group, we had won one league game in 13. We've only won four games since Christmas — and I've been in charge of three of them. So I know I've had a positive impact on the group.

And both lads flew down Sunday afternoon for their operation yesterday morning, early doors." 🏥 LONDON SURGERY: Both players flew to London on Sunday afternoon for the operations, performed Monday morning. McInnes: "Both are travelling back up — [one] will travel to Birmingham today and Craig will come back to Glasgow for his rehab." 📅 TIMING: - Operations: Monday 11 May 2026, early morning, London - Recovery: 7-9 months (out until December 2026 / February 2027) - Misses: ALL remaining 2025-26 fixtures including the title decider at Celtic Park 🏆 IMPACT — TITLE DECIDER FOUR DAYS AWAY: Hearts face Celtic at Celtic Park this Sunday in a fixture that could decide the Scottish Premiership.

Goodwin contrasts the display with United's standout performance against Dundee in the first game after the split, acknowledging that the squad has struggled to replicate that level of intensity with seventh place already the prize on offer. He is honest about the challenge of motivating players at this stage of the season, but is equally clear that professionalism demands more — particularly with a loyal travelling support who made the journey north. The Dundee United manager also covers: Why the Dundee derby performance set the benchmark and how the squad has failed to match it since His disappointment for the travelling United fans who deserved far more A frank assessment of the first half, describing it as having completely passed his side by The difficult conversations and big decisions ahead this summer Player-by-player talks planned for next week as Goodwin begins shaping his squad for next season "We are professionals.

The Football Show panel makes the case — McInnes named PFA Scotland Manager of the Year for the second time in his career after taking Hearts from a finishing-bottom-six side last season to running away with the Premiership in 2025-26 with the same core squad. Tam McManus's argument from this week's Football Show: "A Hearts title would surpass what Fergie achieved at Aberdeen due to today's financial disparity." The McInnes-vs-Fergie historical comparison drove the channel's biggest week of the season. With Steve Clarke's Scotland NT future in question after another underwhelming international cycle, the conversation around who could replace him is heating up.

Gray takes ownership: he can't defend the decision, calls it "a definite dangerous tackle" without malice, and admits the timing pattern is brutal — Edinburgh derby down to 10 men at 16 minutes, down to 9 men 14 minutes later, today down to 10 inside 20 minutes. "We're beating ourselves." The 1-2 defeat closes the door on Hibs' chase for European football. Yesterday's Motherwell result had cracked the door open; Hibs failed to walk through it.

Aberdeen have taken just one point from a possible 18 this season and have not scored a goal in 615 minutes of league football. 📲 Subscribe to PLZ Soccer YouTube NOW bit.ly/3Ui7v6X ⚽ Improved Performance but Tough Result Thelin felt Aberdeen’s effort and energy were back compared to previous games. The team pressed well, defended together, and created chances — but despite the improved performance, they still lost 2–0. He admitted it was a “big hit” given how much the players put in. 💪 Belief in the Team Unlike earlier matches, Thelin said he saw a real collective spirit: players wearing the shirt with pride and fighting for each other. That gives him strong belief Aberdeen can turn things around, even if the results don’t yet show it. 🧠 Focus on What He Can Control Thelin avoided speculation about his job security, stressing that he can’t control the board’s decisions. His responsibility is to stay strong, keep belief, and work daily to improve performances and results. 🤝 Players Gave Everything He refused to blame individuals, insisting Aberdeen win and lose as a collective. The players created plenty of chances but just couldn’t finish. He praised their attitude, saying they never hid or gave up. 📈 Positives and Progress Despite another defeat, Thelin highlighted progress: a more compact system, better central play, and stronger teamwork. The formation change worked well, and he believes it’s something they can build on for future matches. 🔮 Looking Ahead Thelin admitted emotions were raw after the late collapse but urged the team to focus on the positives tomorrow and push forward. He remains convinced Aberdeen will turn things around with continued belief, effort, and small improvements. Join PLZ Premium TODAY!

Bruce Anderson’s opener and a poor defensive lapse for the second goal were decisive moments. Goodwin stressed his side must take responsibility, particularly at set plays. 🔑 Possession & Sloppiness United had more of the ball and similar shot numbers to Kilmarnock but were let down by sloppy play, especially in the first half. Cheap giveaways and slow transitions allowed Kilmarnock to regroup and stay defensively solid. Goodwin highlighted that if you don’t do the basics in this league, you get punished. 📉 Momentum Lost The defeat ended a small unbeaten run. Goodwin said the expectation was on United to break Kilmarnock down but credited Stuart Kettlewell’s side for defending superbly. Over the full game, he admitted they deserved the three points. 💪 No Excuses Goodwin rejected fatigue as an explanation, insisting his squad is young, fit, and had enough recovery time since Tuesday. He said the team must accept the criticism after recent praise and learn from the defeat. Join PLZ Premium TODAY!

Dundee United denied Aberdeen clear chances, with only Armstrong’s strike against the crossbar causing concern. He was especially pleased with the clean sheet, given recent defensive mistakes. ⚡ Counterattacking Threat United looked dangerous on the break, with Belchek, Fata, and Sapsford stretching Aberdeen’s defence. Seel and Kamara provided balance, knowing when to keep possession and when to play forward. Goodwin said this was the closest they’ve come to achieving the balance between defensive solidity and attacking threat. ✅ Most Complete Performance With 14 new signings, Goodwin admitted it takes time to gel. But he described this as the most comfortable and complete performance so far. The team remained calm even under late pressure, showing resilience against a strong Aberdeen push. 📈 Positive Start to the Season Ten points from five games is a return the manager would have accepted at the start. He highlighted strong performances against Hearts, Hibs, and Aberdeen — teams United expect to compete with for top-six places — and said United have more than matched them. 🎯 Striker’s Sharpness Goodwin praised his striker’s instinct for being in the right place at the right time, scoring five goals already. While he wants more involvement in general play, he admitted it’s hard to criticise given the impact. 🧤 Kucherenko’s Redemption Goodwin was delighted for goalkeeper Kucherenko, who bounced back after criticism for errors against Hibs. He praised his character, excellent distribution, and ability to do the basics while also helping build attacks. 🤝 Key Partnerships He high https://www.youtube.com/embed/5VauQ9MFyiY 462 2025-09-23T21:51:59+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/we-are-already-there-rock-bottom-jimmy-thelin-press-conference-XkEuKOLgbe0 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XkEuKOLgbe0/maxresdefault.jpg 🗣️"We are already there, rock bottom" | Jimmy Thelin Press Conference Aberdeen boss Jimmy Thelin says his players cannot hide now that they are bottom of the league table with one point and having scored no goals in the campaign. 📲 Subscribe to PLZ Soccer YouTube NOW bit.ly/3Ui7v6X 😡 Frustration and Pressure Jimmy Thelin admitted that frustration and anger are running high among Aberdeen fans, and he shares those feelings himself. With just one point and no goals scored so far this season, expectations have not been met. He acknowledged that the team has been playing stiffly, with players clearly feeling the weight of pressure, particularly in the opening stages of matches. 🔑 Costly Mistakes Thelin pointed to key errors that have hurt the team at crucial times. Conceding a throw-in goal just before half-time and then a corner early in the second half were examples of lapses in concentration that Aberdeen simply cannot afford. When goals are hard to come by, he stressed the importance of keeping clean sheets and avoiding cheap mistakes. 🧩 Lack of Fluency Dundee United looked confident and structured, while Aberdeen lacked rhythm and fluency. Thelin admitted that the team is struggling to find its flow and that the relationships on the pitch are not yet clicking. He noted that the pressure of poor results is creating a vicious cycle, and breaking that chain is now essential. 🌟 Leadership Example One bright spot was Stuart Armstrong, who stood out for his composure and experience. He constantly demanded the ball and set an example for others to follow. Thelin highlighted Armstrong as the type of player Aberdeen needs right now — someone willing to take responsibility and play with calmness under pressure. 🆙 Nothing to Lose on Saturday Looking ahead, Thelin believes Saturday’s match is an opportunity to reset. With the team bottom of the table, he argued that Aberdeen now have “nothing to lose and everything to win.” He hopes that this mindset will allow the players to shed some of the tension in their performances and step o https://www.youtube.com/embed/XkEuKOLgbe0 449 2025-09-23T21:38:26+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/jimmy-thelin-reveals-talks-with-aberdeen-board-dundee-united-vs-aberdeen-press-conference-R4GBUMooojA 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/R4GBUMooojA/maxresdefault.jpg Jimmy Thelin Reveals Talks With Aberdeen Board | Dundee United vs Aberdeen Press Conference Jimmy Thelin Reveals Talks With Aberdeen Board | Dundee United vs Aberdeen Press Conference 📲 Subscribe to PLZ Soccer YouTube NOW bit.ly/3Ui7v6X 🛡️ Defensive Focus Thelin emphasised the need for more help when defending and better control of central areas. The team has been too exposed, and compactness on the pitch is crucial. ⚡ Critical Moments He noted that Motherwell’s goal highlighted Aberdeen’s defensive lapses and poor recovery. Small technical mistakes and lack of support contributed to being too open in critical moments. 💪 Teamwork and Responsibility Thelin stressed connecting all 11 players, supporting each other, and taking responsibility for results. Players must act together both in attack and defense to maximize strengths and hide weaknesses. 📈 Learning and Growth He highlighted the investment in young players who are learning to handle pressure. Maintaining calm, following instructions, and staying focused are key for development and results. 🔄 Squad Management Rotation will depend on the next games. Some players may be rested to maintain energy, with performance and intensity prioritized over formation changes. 🧠 Composure and Focus Thelin advised players to focus on what they can control, stay stable under pressure, and ignore outside noise. Football is full of emotions, but clarity and discipline are essential to secure results. ⚽ Clear Tactical Priorities Compactness, controlling the center of the pitch, and supporting teammates are the top priorities. Success comes from fundamentals and teamwork rather than formation changes. Join PLZ Premium TODAY!

He stressed that Motherwell are losing games in the wrong way — by failing to show passion, win duels, and sacrifice themselves in key moments. 🧱 Back to Basics For Thelin, football starts with the “ABC” — responsibility, intensity, and effort. He insisted these fundamentals must change immediately, regardless of tactics or formation. Without them, results will not improve. 😔 Fans’ Frustration He acknowledged and understood the boos from supporters after the game. Thelin said the players also knew they hadn’t done enough and must show more respect for the badge, the fans, and themselves. ⚽ Goals & Margins With just four goals in eight games, he admitted the lack of scoring is an issue. However, he believes once the team starts doing the extra work in all areas, goals and clean sheets will follow. Right now, performances haven’t been good enough, and that’s why results are poor. 🏟️ Responsibility at a Big Club Thelin reminded everyone that being at a big club brings extra responsibility. He said some players had been leaving responsibility to others, but that can’t happen. He promised to take the first hit as manager but expects players to protect each other and give everything on the pitch. ⏳ Flat Periods & Pressure He pointed out a flat 10–15 minutes early in the second half, when nobody stepped up to take risks or lift the team. Pressure is natural, he said, but effort is non-negotiable: “Better to give everything and fail than hesitate and give nothing.” 🤝 Open Discussion Thelin confirmed there was a frank post-match conversation in the dressing room. Players openly admitted they hadn’t supported each other or done the basics right. He felt it cleared the air and was an important step to move fo https://www.youtube.com/embed/LQB009Rm8DY 519 2025-09-20T17:11:08+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/i-do-definitely-think-we-can-take-it-an-extra-step-on-from-what-we-did-last-year-t76AmS0odH0 2026-06-26T14:42:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/t76AmS0odH0/maxresdefault.jpg 🗣️ 'I do definitely think we can take it an extra step on from what we did last year.’ Luca Stepehenson explains why Dundee United pose an even greater threat this season. 📲 Subscribe to PLZ Soccer YouTube NOW bit.ly/3Ui7v6X ⚽ Personal highs: Stephenson was delighted to get back on the scoresheet with two goals, his first in a while, but admitted it was frustrating to be 2-0 up and not take all three points. 🔥 Team performance: Despite the draw, he praised the squad’s creativity, attacking threat, and willingness to get forward. He highlighted the energy and confidence from recent games, including the Dundee and Vienna matches. 💪 Playing style: Loving the adventurous, offensive setup, he enjoyed the freedom to play from wing-back and midfield, showing what he can do going forward. 🎯 Targets & ambitions: He aims to improve on last season’s goals and assists, feeling confident that the team can take a step above last year. 🎉 Fans & pride: The away supporters’ reaction showcased pride and appreciation for the team’s effort, despite the disappointing result. 🟥 Setbacks: He acknowledged the red card and penalty were tough breaks, but remains positive, noting suspensions are short and key players will be back.

He stressed that it’s his and the players’ job to give supporters energy and belief, and right now the team isn’t doing that. He called for hard work and step-by-step progress to improve rhythm and results. 🎯 Missed Chances Aberdeen created good opportunities in both halves but lacked the composure and timing to finish them. Thelin said when the team is out of rhythm, small details go missing. He urged his players to keep working and to connect better so performances can match results. 🏆 Short-Term vs Long-Term Goals He acknowledged the big expectations at Aberdeen – qualifying for Europe and challenging for trophies – and said nothing has changed in that regard. While building a squad for the long term, the short-term focus must be on winning games now to lift the atmosphere and confidence. 👥 New Signings & Squad Rotation Thelin praised new arrivals like Stuart Armstrong, saying he showed quality and will be an asset for the future. He explained that squad turnover is part of a long-term plan, but the current inconsistency in midfield selections and rhythm is affecting performances. 👶 Young Players Development He highlighted the importance of building robustness in young players so they can perform consistently every week. Some will be eased in through certain competitions, while others are expected to deliver immediately. He remains confident that Aberdeen’s investments in youth will pay off in the future. 🏟️ Focus on Home Form Thelin underlined the importance of showing identity, intensity, and tempo at Pittodrie, particularly in front of the home fans. He believes stronger home performances will help rebuild rhythm and momentum as they prepare for the upcoming cup game. 📲 Subscribe to PLZ Soccer YouTube NOW bit.ly/3Ui7v6X Join PLZ Premium TODAY! https://www.youtube.com/embed/YWLGat5DtD0 510 2025-09-13T17:23:23+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/nico-raskin-branded-toxic-but-resolution-vital-for-rangers-the-journos-dMbxAsY_P2I 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dMbxAsY_P2I/maxresdefault.jpg Nico Raskin branded 'TOXIC' but resolution VITAL for Rangers | The Journos This week on the Journos we discuss Celtic and the mis-alignment between the Celtic Board, Brendan Rodgers and the Celtic support.

Is it a nostalgic, populist move, or a calculated decision in line with the incoming investor group’s ambitions? The panel debates Gerrard’s coaching credentials, his underwhelming post-Ibrox record, and whether he fits into the “data-driven” vision some believe will shape the club’s future. Hugh MacDonald raises a red flag, arguing Gerrard’s profile clashes with a supposed 49ers-style structure built on analytics, sporting directors, and modern football governance.

Ferguson reacts passionately to a disallowed goal-line incident involving Nico Raskin, where the ball clearly crossed the line—but was not given. Calling the decision "baffling" and "mind-blowing," he stops short of directly criticising officials but makes clear his dismay at yet another VAR-related failure. 📌 Key Talking Points: Ferguson slams decision not to award a goal despite clear evidence the ball crossed the line. Refers to the referee’s refusal to engage: “The referee—not interested.” Praises the fourth official for their conduct, but is mystified by the overall lack of accountability. Labels it part of a pattern of poor officiating across Scottish football: “I’ve seen it all season.” Insists goal-line technology wasn’t even needed for this call—“It’s clear to see.” ⚠️ Ferguson holds back—but only just—as he reflects on another controversial afternoon in Scottish football. A must-watch post-match reaction for fans of Rangers, Hibs, and those following the VAR debate in the SPFL.

Rangers’ first home game of the season they had Philippe Clement in the dugout, they played their football at Hampden, and they’d run away with a 2–1 victory over Motherwell in their final league game of the season. Barry Ferguson's in the dugout, they're back home at Ibrox, and they've finished it with a 3–1 victory. They were behind after 20 minutes when Samuel Cleall–Harding’s – header flew into the back of the net. Just five minutes later though, they were back level through Cyriel Dessers after a lovely delivery by Yilmaz. Into the second half we went, and after a slow start to it, it was brought back to life in the 70th minute – Mohamed Diomande taken down in the box by Will Ferry. Referee said no initially, but he went over to the monitor, gave the penalty, and up stepped Cyriel Dessers, who coolly slotted the ball home. And just four minutes later, the icing was put on the cake – Václav Černý playing in Nico Raskin, who smashed the ball into the roof of the net. A cheerio from Václav Černý as he walked off the park, and well, Barry Ferguson being serenaded by his Rangers support – it looks like it will be his last game in the Rangers dugout. But for Jim Goodwin’s side, the pressure is still on for them to make it into that fifth place and get European football. That one's going right down to the wire. And I’ll be speaking to both the managers about that st https://www.youtube.com/embed/0Iu5w-0AAQQ 87 2025-05-14T21:03:47+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/rangers-vs-dundee-united-preview-pUSjNfwyo3w 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/pUSjNfwyo3w/maxresdefault.jpg Rangers vs Dundee United Preview #SPFL LIVE | Rangers vs Dundee United Patrick Mullen is at Ibrox for the final home game of the season.

With European football on the line, this fixture could prove pivotal in deciding who finishes third and secures a coveted European spot. Stephen Robinson’s St Mirren come into the match in red-hot form, with 10 points from their last 12, and fresh off a 2–0 win over Dundee United.

Here’s everything Jimmy Thelin said after another big three points: 🔴⚪ Patience & Maturity: Thelin praised his side for staying patient throughout a tense match, remaining calm even as some nervousness grew in the stands. He highlighted the team's growing maturity – learning from previous tight matches to manage games better. 🔴⚪ Moment of Magic: Thelin lauded the "super goal" that secured the win, praising the quality and timing of the finish, and emphasising the importance of having players who can deliver in key moments when games are tight. 🔴⚪ Consistency & Calmness: Thelin credited recent experiences — such as the Scottish Cup semi-final against Hearts — for helping his players stay composed under pressure, particularly against a strong, fast Hibs side. 🔴⚪ Learning from Past Games: The manager underlined that recent late wins have built trust within the squad, helping them stay stable under pressure rather than panicking, and always believing a chance would come. 🔴⚪ Squad Depth Boost: With more players back fit, Thelin spoke about how substitutions are now strengthening Aberdeen during games, rather than weakening them — a key difference compared to earlier in the season. 🔴⚪ No Let Up: Despite the victory, Thelin insisted the pressure remains. Aberdeen still need to win their remaining games to achieve European qualification — there’s no room for complacency. 🔴⚪ Fan P https://www.youtube.com/embed/tCVlja_p2u0 351 2025-04-26T18:01:16+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/david-gray-full-post-match-press-conference-aberdeen-1-0-hibs-HzLkj3N727Y 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HzLkj3N727Y/maxresdefault.jpg David Gray FULL Post Match Press Conference | Aberdeen 1-0 Hibs David Gray FULL Post Match Press Conference | Aberdeen 1-0 Hibs 📲Download the Arnold Clark App NOW bit.ly/4gpXGgr Get EXCLUSIVE members only content: https://www.youtube.com/@PLZSoccer/join SUBSCRIBE NOW: https://youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 David Gray Full Post-Match Reaction | Aberdeen 1-0 Hibernian | "Still Everything to Play For!" | Scottish Premiership Hibernian interim manager David Gray shared his full thoughts after a narrow 1-0 defeat to Aberdeen at Pittodrie in the Scottish Premiership – a result that has made the battle for third place even tighter. 🟢⚪ Here’s everything David Gray said after a tough afternoon: 🟢⚪ Performance Effort: Gray praised the Hibs players for giving "absolutely everything" despite the disappointment of defeat, emphasising that he would never be critical of their commitment or work rate. 🟢⚪ Tight Game: He admitted Hibs probably didn’t do quite enough to win the match, though he felt the team was largely comfortable and competed well throughout – highlighting how fine the margins were. 🟢⚪ Wonder Strike: Gray acknowledged the winning goal was a "special" one – a stunning strike worthy of winning any match – but added that while you can always find ways to avoid conceding, sometimes individual brilliance is hard to stop. 🟢⚪ Seventeen-Game Unbeaten Run Ends: He reflected on Hibs’ incredible 17-game unbeaten run coming to an end, stressing it showed both the form they had been on and just how difficult the league is. 🟢⚪ Perspective and Progress: Gray pointed out that sitting third with four games to go would have been considered a great achievement if offered a few months ago – and Hibs are still very much in control of their European hopes. 🟢⚪ Importance of Reaction: The key now is bouncing back quickly. Gray was clear that the squad must stay positive, return to the training pitch with focus, and be ready for the crucial home game against Dundee United. 🟢⚪ Tight Top Six Battle: With results tighten https://www.youtube.com/embed/HzLkj3N727Y 209 2025-04-26T17:45:52+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/i-apologise-to-the-fans-jim-goodwin-post-match-interview-dundee-united-0-5-celtic-2hKT26NyLrc 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/2hKT26NyLrc/maxresdefault.jpg ‘I apologise to the fans’ Jim Goodwin Post Match Interview | Dundee United 0-5 Celtic Jim Goodwin still believes Dundee United can claim third spot this season in the Scottish Premiership despite their heavy loss to Celtic. 📲Download the Arnold Clark App NOW bit.ly/4gpXGgr Get EXCLUSIVE members only content: https://www.youtube.com/@PLZSoccer/join SUBSCRIBE NOW: https://youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 Jim Goodwin Post-Match Reaction | Dundee United 0-5 Celtic | Celtic Crowned Scottish Premiership Champions Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin gives his honest assessment after a tough afternoon at Tannadice, where Celtic ran out 5-0 winners to officially secure the Scottish Premiership title. 🏆🍀 In this in-depth interview, Goodwin reflects on: ⚽ Dundee United’s strong opening 30 minutes – and how early promise quickly faded after Celtic’s devastating counterattacking. ⚽ The frustration of an own goal and rapid counter that turned the game completely in Celtic’s favour. ⚽ How Brendan Rodgers’ tactical adjustments and Celtic’s speed and quality overwhelmed his side. ⚽ Why he takes responsibility for the result and protected key players like Sam Dalby and Liam Doherty for the final matches. ⚽ His pride in United’s overall season – fighting into the top six and still pushing hard for a potential European place. ⚽ Acknowledging Celtic’s dominance – praising their quality, hunger, and rightful claim as the best team in Scotland by a country mile. ⚽ Addressing the unusual protest that interrupted the match briefly – and its frustrating timing when United were competitive early on. ⚽ His rallying message to the Dundee United fans and players: they must pick themselves up quickly ahead of four crucial games left. 👏 A classy and honest interview from Jim Goodwin — acknowledging the gulf in quality on the day but refusing to let one defeat define Dundee United’s season. 👉 Make sure you subscribe to PLZ Soccer for more post-match reactions, fan interviews, and exclusive Scottish football coverage!

In this in-depth post-match interview, Docherty doesn’t hold back as he breaks down what went wrong on the day and stresses the need for a stronger, more consistent mentality from his players in the final stretch of the season. After four solid league performances — including wins over St Mirren and Dundee United, a draw with St Johnstone, and a close match against Rangers — Docherty admits the first-half showing against Hibs came as a complete surprise and was well below the standards he expects. 📌 Key Talking Points from Tony Docherty's Post Match Interview: ⚽ First-Half No-Show: Docherty admits his side "didn't turn up" in the first half, lacking the aggression, bravery, and confidence that had been a feature of their recent form. He questions whether Hibs’ reputation played a role in the team’s timid approach and passive mindset. 🧠 Mentality and Mindset: The Dundee boss repeatedly stresses that consistency of performance is essential, and that playing on the back foot due to external factors is not acceptable. He urges his team to believe in their own identity, regardless of the opposition. 🔥 Improved Second Half – But Too Late: Docherty was encouraged by the start of the second half, where Dundee looked the more dominant team. He highlighted the impact of Murray Samuels at left-back and praised the attacking intent shown before the game spiralled out of reach. ⚠️ Costly Defensive Errors: While chasing the game at 1-0, Dundee conceded https://www.youtube.com/embed/yBRHlJKr-0Y 283 2025-04-13T16:48:33+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/if-we-keep-winning-no-one-will-catch-us-david-gray-reacts-to-hibs-17-game-unbeaten-in-the-league-1EUk6ZBdCAU 2026-10-13T21:06:06+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1EUk6ZBdCAU/maxresdefault.jpg 'If we keep winning no one will catch us!'

Over the moon, obviously. I think, as you say, great performance, fantastic result. To score four goals in the Premiership is very difficult, but delighted with the clean sheet as well. And like you've touched on there—the level of consistency, the level of performance and the effort I'm getting from the players every single day in training and in the games now is incredible. And that's a reflection on, you know, 17 games undefeated, which is an incredible achievement. The record is something everyone seems to be talking about. Are you thinking about it? Is it kind of in the dressing room? We talk about it, but at the same time we've been very much about short-term goals a lot this season because of the nature of the season, and where we found ourselves to where we are now. You know, little incentives to try and change history in positive ways—it's probably a quote I've used a lot this season—but we've managed to do that several times, and today was another opportunity to do that. The one thing I would say now is the challenge for us is if we keep winning, nobody can catch us. That's the one thing I keep saying to the players all the time, and if that keeps happening, the run will keep going. So, no—the players are desperate to keep that going. There’s a real feel-good factor around the club at the minute. It's a real togetherness—from the staff to the players to the fans, the powers-that-be above—everyone’s in a real good place. But we’re all determined now to make sure we finish as strong as we can.

They took the lead in the first half through Rocky Bushiri. He volleyed home his fourth of the season, and really it could have been much more going into the halftime break. But that was just a precursor for what was to come in the second half. Kanayo Megwa came off the bench as a substitute and, four minutes after being introduced, he swept home an excellent finish from a Lewis Miller cross to make it 2–0. It was then three just moments later—Dwight Gayle coming onto the park and sliding a finish underneath Trevor Carson for an excellent, composed effort to make it 3–0. Kanayo Megwa added another to proceedings when he headed home the fourth—and his fifth of the season—to seal an excellent win for Hibs. It’s a result that moves them three points clear into third place with five to play. For Dundee meanwhile, that leaves them deep in a relegation mire—still only ahead of St Johnstone and looking to catch the teams above them. But it finishes here at Easter Road: Hibs 4, Dundee 0.

Today they’re looking to make it 17 unbeaten in the league—that’s their best run since the 1947–48 season, where that season they went on to win the league championship. They know three points today will certainly boost their push for third place, and they may also be buoyed by the fact that yesterday Hearts missed out on the top six with that disappointing result to Motherwell. One team the Jambos will be facing in the second half of the season is today’s visitors Dundee, where it’s all about survival for Tony Docherty’s men this campaign. A win today will move them eight points above basement side St Johnstone, so that certainly is motivation to come and put on a performance here this afternoon. One of the shining lights of this Dundee side has been Simon Murray, and you’d have to think that his goals will certainly make a difference in that push for survival—21 so far in all competitions this season. That could be absolutely massive at the bottom end of the table. It’s a 2:30 kickoff today here in Edinburgh as Hibs take on Dundee.

Goodwin did not hold back in his post-match analysis, slamming his team’s lack of fight, defensive errors, and individual mistakes. 📊 FINAL SCORE: 🏆 Dundee United 2-4 Dundee 🏟️ MATCH RECAP: A NIGHTMARE START COSTS UNITED THE GAME Dundee United imploded in the first half, making defensive errors, failing to win duels, and lacking any intensity in what was a hugely important fixture in the race for the top six. 📝 FIRST-HALF: Defensive Disaster for United ❌ 1-0 (8’) – A free header inside the box saw Dundee take the lead with ease. United’s marking was nonexistent. ❌ 2-0 (19’ Robinson) – A horror moment for United goalkeeper Jack Walton, whose costly error gifted Dundee a second goal. ❌ 3-0 (34’ McGhee) – Will Ferry gave the ball away cheaply, and Dundee punished them ruthlessly with a stunning finish. ❌ United in Disarray – Defensively shambolic, losing all key battles and allowing Dundee to dictate the game. 📝 SECOND-HALF: Improved, but Too Late ✅ United Rally After Half-Time: Harsh words were spoken in the dressing room, and Goodwin’s side came out stronger in the second half. ✅ 3-1 (51’ Moult) – A quick goal from Trapp provided hope, and United applied pressure. ✅ 3-2 (70’ Watt) – The home side dominated possession and looked like they could equalize. ❌ 4-2 (84’ Penalty, Dundee) – Another d https://www.youtube.com/embed/FYfLpp9mJy4 402 2025-03-16T19:12:42+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/dundee-fans-celebrate-derby-win-over-rivals-dundee-united-at-tannadice-dtrpJoY2FLs 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dtrpJoY2FLs/maxresdefault.jpg 🙌 🎶 Dundee fans celebrate derby win over rivals Dundee United at Tannadice 🙌 🎶 Dundee fans celebrate derby win over rivals Dundee United at Tannadice after a 4-2 victory! at Tannadice Park!! Full-time score: Dundee United 2-4 Dundee Browse 1,000's of new and used cars with the Arnold Clark app: http://bit.ly/4gpXGgr Subscribe here: http://youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 It’s all over here at Tannadice, and it’s finished Dundee United 2, Dundee 4. What an incredible Dundee Derby we have been treated to here, and what a first half it was by the visitors! They took the lead after just 17 minutes on the clock when Jordan McGhee's header flew into the back of the net. They had their second just 5 minutes later when Scott Tiffoney’s outrageous effort from about 25 yards out was bundled and made a mistake of by Jack Walton in the Dundee United net. Five minutes later, however, Dundee United had one back of their own, that one coming through Glenn Middleton—a fantastic strike from him, just curling it into the top right-hand corner. But Dundee regained their two-goal lead heading into the break right on the stroke of halftime, thanks to Jordan McGhee once again. A fantastic effort—the goals on show here today were quite scintillating! Heading into the second half, we were hoping for the same again—that intensity. And, well, it came. Dundee United got a goal back in the 48th minute, and it was Sadat Anaku just sending the ball off to Tony Watt, and his deflected effort managed to find its way into the back of the net. Dundee United were giving it everything in this game to go on and get that equalizer, but the Dundee defense and Trevor Carson in the net held strong. And then they managed to go on and get their fourth right at the end of this one.

What an incredible Dundee Derby we have been treated to here, and what a first half it was by the visitors! They took the lead after just 17 minutes on the clock when Jordan McGhee's header flew into the back of the net. They had their second just 5 minutes later when Scott Tiffoney’s outrageous effort from about 25 yards out was bundled and made a mistake of by Jack Walton in the Dundee United net. Five minutes later, however, Dundee United had one back of their own, that one coming through Glenn Middleton—a fantastic strike from him, just curling it into the top right-hand corner. But Dundee regained their two-goal lead heading into the break right on the stroke of halftime, thanks to Jordan McGhee once again. A fantastic effort—the goals on show here today were quite scintillating! Heading into the second half, we were hoping for the same again—that intensity. And, well, it came. Dundee United got a goal back in the 48th minute, and it was Sadat Anaku just sending the ball off to Tony Watt, and his deflected effort managed to find its way into the back of the net. Dundee United were giving it everything in this game to go on and get that equalizer, but the Dundee defense and Trevor Carson in the net held strong. And then they managed to go on and get their fourth right at the end of this one. Simon Murray just breaking through the line, and Dundee—he looked set to go and shoot on goal, but Adam Legzdins with just a push in his back—he was sent off for that.

While acknowledging Aberdeen’s strong second half, Goodwin praised his players' defensive resilience but admitted that the team ultimately ran out of energy in the closing stages. 🔥 MATCH RECAP: Dundee United looked set for a massive victory, leading 2-0 at halftime after two well-worked set-piece goals. However, Aberdeen mounted a late comeback, with a 91st-minute equalizer crushing what would have been an important three points. Goodwin highlighted the impact of Aberdeen’s substitutions and Dundee United’s squad depth issues, with key injuries affecting their ability to see the game out. 🎙 KEY TALKING POINTS FROM JIM GOODWIN'S PRESS CONFERENCE: 👉 "We Defended So Well Until the 91st Minute" – The manager praises the centre-backs’ performance but acknowledges one lapse at the back post cost them. 👉 "Squad Depth a Concern" – With players like Will Ferry, Ross Docherty, and Louis Moult missing, United struggled in the final 20 minutes, running out of energy and options. 👉 "Aberdeen’s Quality off the Bench Made a Difference" – Goodwin credits Jimmy Thelin’s halftime substitutions, which added pace, creativity, and attacking intent. 👉 "First-Half Game Plan Worked Perfectly" – Dundee United’s high pressing and quick counterattacks put them in a strong position, leading to two set-piece goals from Glenn Middleton’s deliveries. 👉 "We Identified Aberdeen’s Weakness at the Back Post" – Goodwin reveals they targeted Aberdeen’s defensiv https://www.youtube.com/embed/nmoTkOzh9dg 484 2025-03-02T20:26:51+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/jimmy-thelin-post-match-press-conference-aberdeen-2-2-dundee-united-tZiDAuDbF3U 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tZiDAuDbF3U/maxresdefault.jpg Jimmy Thelin Post Match Press Conference | Aberdeen 2-2 Dundee United Jimmy Thelin Post Match Press Conference | Aberdeen 2-2 Dundee United - Aberdeen manage to salvage a point against Dundee United thanks to Kevin Nisbet.

A strong second-half performance, backed by an electric home crowd, saw them fight back to salvage a crucial point, with Kevin stepping up again with another important goal. The manager was disappointed with the result, but proud of the team’s mentality and response in the second half. 🎙 KEY TALKING POINTS FROM JIMMY THELIN'S PRESS CONFERENCE: 👉 "We Never Gave Up" – Thelin praises his team for never losing belief, using the home atmosphere to push forward and come back from two goals down. 👉 "Soft Goals Must Stop" – The manager acknowledges that conceding easy goals is becoming a recurring issue, referencing the recent Celtic game as another example. He insists the team must improve defensively in key moments. 👉 "We Must Be More Clinical" – Despite dominating possession (88%), Aberdeen managed just two shots on target, something Thelin believes needs to improve. He emphasizes the importance of making better decisions in the final third. 👉 "Kevin’s Hard Work is Paying Off" – The manager highlights the striker’s dedication on and off the pitch, crediting his extra training and gym work for his recent run of goals (4 in 6 games). https://www.youtube.com/embed/tZiDAuDbF3U 340 2025-03-02T19:38:09+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/ft-report-aberdeen-2-2-dundee-united-hj3ec5zWCBY 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hj3ec5zWCBY/maxresdefault.jpg FT REPORT | ABERDEEN 2-2 DUNDEE UNITED FT Report and Reaction | Aberdeen 2-2 Dundee United - Aberdeen manage to salvage a point against Dundee United thanks to Kevin Nisbet.

Aberdeen managed to salvage a late point here in the second half. Two first-half goals for Dundee United from Vojvoda Savic and Sam Dalby gave them a two-goal cushion going in at the break. And for a lot of the second half, Dundee United tried to frustrate Aberdeen, as you would expect with that two-goal cushion. Kevin Nisbet pulled one back for Aberdeen in the 75th minute. He got half a yard just on the edge of the box before firing a shot into the bottom left corner, and it was game on. You did wonder if there was enough time for Aberdeen to salvage something, and in the 90th minute, Kevin Nisbet popped up again to draw the scoring level. There wasn’t quite enough time to find a winner here. However, that could be a big point going into these last couple of games of the season, with it being so tight in terms of the league table. It means Hibs remain in third after their derby win earlier today, and Aberdeen are now just a point behind them. Full-time here at Pittodrie: Aberdeen 2, Dundee United 2.

The subs came on and impacted the game in a really positive way, which is exactly what you want." Gray acknowledged the quality moment that led to the winning goal, a brilliant move and finish that helped Hibs secure three massive points. 🗣 "We weren’t as sharp as we have been in recent weeks, but that was one moment of real quality.

David Gray’s side will be determined to keep that 13-game unbeaten streak going. A victory here tonight could see them leapfrog Dundee United into fourth place on goal difference and put them just one point behind third-place Aberdeen. With the Edinburgh Derby just around the corner at the weekend, Hibs will be determined to go into that one off the back of a midweek victory. Although their last visit here at Tannadice, they lost 3-2, with two very late stoppage-time goals being their undoing. Josh Campbell will be a man full of confidence after his brace against the Hoops at the weekend. Elie Youan and Adam Le Fondre come back into contention after missing out against Celtic. Dundee United ended a four-game losing streak with a 1-0 win over Motherwell at the weekend, and a victory here tonight would see them knock Aberdeen off their third-place perch after their defeat to Celtic last night. On-loan Wrexham striker Sam Dalby has been a thorn in the side of many a Scottish Premiership team this season. He’s actually the league’s top scorer with 12 goals in 24 games, so he’s one for Hibs to watch tonight. One man Dundee United will have to do without, of course, is Kevin Holt. He made the switch to Dens Park over the weekend after the move was confirmed. Dundee United released a statement saying that the player and his agent made it clear that he would be unavailable for selection until the end of the season if the deal didn’t go through. The 32-year-old has since refuted those claims.

It was a frustrating afternoon for new Motherwell boss Michael Wimmer as his first game in charge ended in a narrow 1-0 defeat to Dundee United at Tannadice. The Steelmen struggled to make an impact, while a clinical header from Sam Dalby proved enough to seal the victory for United. 🎬 First Half – Dalby Delivers Again The anticipated “new manager bounce” for Motherwell simply didn’t materialize in a flat first-half display. The visitors looked disjointed and lacked energy, failing to test the Dundee United defense in any meaningful way. The breakthrough came just after the half-hour mark. Ryan Strain whipped in an inch-perfect cross from the right-hand side, finding Sam Dalby, who timed his run brilliantly and rose highest to power a pinpoint header beyond Ellery Balcombe. It was Dalby’s 12th goal of the season, underlining his reputation as one of the Premiership’s most dangerous aerial threats. 💬 “That’s classic Dalby—great movement, great header. He’s been massive for United this season.” ⚔️ Second Half – Motherwell Improve but Lack Cutting Edge Motherwell did improve after the break. A tactical tweak saw them push higher up the pitch and adopt a more aggressive pressing game. While they managed to create a few half-chances, they failed to carve out any clear-cut opportunities that could trouble the United backline. United, on the other hand, looked dangerous on the counter and could have doubled their lead.

The German, in his first press conference, stated that the goal this season is to secure a top-six finish, and that certainly seems achievable given the tightly packed middle of the Scottish Premiership — with just seven points separating fourth and ninth place. However, he inherits one of the most out-of-form teams in Scottish football, with the Steelmen having lost five of their last six games in all competitions. And what a welcome it is to Scottish football today, as he brings his side to Tannadice to take on a very canny Jim Goodwin and his Dundee United side. The times I've seen them this season, they haven't perhaps played the prettiest football, but they’ve certainly been functional — and it’s worked wonders since coming up from the Championship last season. That said, they too are currently out of form, having lost four of their last five matches in all competitions. As for this season's head-to-head, Motherwell have already won two of their games against Dundee United in the 2024/25 campaign. If they were to complete the hat-trick today, it would mark the first time they've beaten United in all three fixtures since the 2004/2005 season — making it 20 years since they last achieved that feat.

I The Journos Celtic produced one of their finest European performances against Bayern Munich but ultimately bowed out of the Champions League. Would Celtic have progressed if they hadn’t sold Kyogo Furuhashi in January? Love Scottish Football? Subscribe Here: http://youtube.com/@PLZSoccer?sub_confirmation=1 🌟 Celtic's Performance: Pride, Progress, and Pain Brendan Rodgers hailed his players’ effort, describing it as a night filled with pride despite the heartbreaking exit. Celtic played a disciplined, controlled game, matching Bayern for large spells and even taking the lead before a late equalizer from the German giants dashed their hopes. 🟢 Key Talking Points: Tactical Maturity: Celtic showed defensive resilience and played with tactical awareness, pressing at the right moments and staying compact. Missed Chances: Celtic had golden opportunities in the first half but lacked the killer instinct up front—Kyogo’s absence was glaring. Bayern's Equalizer: A late Bayern goal—after a controversial build-up—cruelly knocked Celtic out. 🗣️ Peter Martin (PLZ Soccer): “Celtic played mature, controlled football. They didn’t look out of place on the European stage. But... the big ‘what if?’ is Kyogo.” 💰 The Kyogo Conundrum: Did Selling Him Derail Celtic’s Campaign? The sale of Kyogo Furuhashi in the January transfer window remains a hot topic among fans and pundits. The Japanese striker had been instrumental for Celtic, and his departure—without a replacement—left the team short-handed in key moments. ⚔️ Arguments for Keeping Kyogo: His instinctive finishing could have converted the chances Celtic missed in Munich. The striker’s presence in the box offers a different dynamic that was lacking against Bayern. “That was a Kyogo-style pass into the six-yard box last night—he’d have eaten that up,” said Hugh MacDonald. ⚖️ Why Celtic Sold Kyogo: Reports suggest Kyogo was keen to move, with lucrative offers doubling his salary. The club believed a replacement was lined up, but the dea https://www.youtube.com/embed/76TWs5CHe84 3582 2025-02-20T16:00:06+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/daizen-maeda-premier-league-class-i-the-journos-rUVuAlnDspM 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rUVuAlnDspM/maxresdefault.jpg Daizen Maeda Premier League class?

His remarkable talent on the field, evidenced by scoring twenty-two league goals, soon paved the way for a move to Newcastle United in October 1986 after an impressive start in Meadowbank's 1986–87 league campaign. Jackson's debut for Newcastle was memorable, coming off the bench to replace Ian Stewart in a match against Arsenal, where his efforts won a penalty for his team, despite the game ending in a 2–1 defeat. Over two seasons with the Magpies, he netted seven goals, leaving his mark before returning to Scotland to join Dundee United in late 1988. His first season was marred by a broken ankle, undiagnosed initially, sidelining him for six months. Despite this setback, Jackson's tenure at Tannadice was fruitful, yielding a Scottish Cup runners-up medal in 1990–91 and finishing as the club's top scorer with 18 goals that season. In 1992, Jackson moved to Hibernian, where he again experienced the sting of being a runner-up in the 1993–94 Scottish League Cup.

McDonald inked a deal with RCA Records, setting the stage for the release of his debut album, "In the Arms of an Angel," in March 2014. The album achieved notable success, clinching the number-one spot in Scotland, number-six in the United Kingdom, and twenty-one in the Republic of Ireland. The album's lead single, "Answerphone," also enjoyed chart success. In 2018, McDonald released "Limelight," a track anticipated to be the precursor to his second studio album, which has been eagerly awaited by fans. Despite the suspense surrounding the release date, McDonald's influence in the music scene continues to grow, with an impressive touring schedule that sees him performing at approximately 100 to 120 shows annually, including festivals and private functions. Born into a close-knit family, Nicky's early life was marked by both joy and adversity. Alongside the warmth of his parents, Eileen and Derrick, and the companionship of his two brothers and sister, Nicky faced a formidable challenge: living with Long QT syndrome, a rare heart condition that nearly claimed his life at eight years old. This condition underscored the resilience that would later define his career. Educationally, McDonald attended St Aidan's High School in Wishaw, but his academic journey was interrupted by his participation in "The X Factor." The decision to leave school in January 2014 underscored his commitment to pursuing a career in music, a choice that has since been validated by his accomplishments. McDonald's journey through "The X Factor" was nothing short of cinematic, showcasing his evolution as an artist under the mentorship of Louis Walsh. His performances, characterized by emotional depth and vocal clarity, resonated with both the audience and the judges, propelling him to the final and securing his status as a fan favourite.

McAvennie also talks about his partying lifestyle, shooting to fame on Wogan and meeting Hollywood icons. Frank McAvennie Straight Talk Highlights: 00:00 Intro - Frank McAvennie 03:30 Playing for St Mirren 11:01 Signing for West Ham United 18:05 Playing for West Ham United 21:53 Frank McAvennie Wogan 29:50 Second season at West Ham United 32:12 Frank McAvennie Celtic 36:36 Paul McStay Celtic 37:52 Rangers FC 2-2 Celtic FC (1987) 44:48 Celtic 2-1 Dundee United Scottish Cup Final 1988 49:34 Celtic contract dispute Frank McAvennie's football career is a tale of resilience, talent, and an indomitable spirit. His journey began humbly in the Scottish Junior League, playing for the 200 Club in Kirkintilloch. His performance caught the eye of scouts, leading him to Johnstone Burgh for a modest £500. However, his early career wasn't smooth sailing. A trial with Partick Thistle ended in disappointment, as manager Bertie Auld doubted his potential. His trials with the British Army and a stint as a road sweeper were further detours on his path to professional football. McAvennie's turning point came in 1980 when he joined St Mirren at the age of 20. His league debut in the 1981-82 season was memorable, scoring two goals in a 4-3 victory over Airdrieonians. His prowess as a midfielder was recognized when he was named the Scottish PFA Young Player of the Year in 1982. Over five years, he made 135 league appearances for St Mirren, netting 48 goals. His performance in Scotland didn't go unnoticed in England. In the summer of 1985, after declining an offer from Luton Town, McAvennie signed with West Ham United for £340,000. His debut for West Ham was a 1-0 defeat to Birmingham City, but he quickly made his mark by scoring two goals in his second game. Initially an attacking midfielder, an injury to teammate Paul Goddard saw him repositioned as a striker, a role he ex https://www.youtube.com/embed/V5c3xOahdpU 3246 2023-12-13T10:00:09+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/scottish-clubs-should-axe-rookie-manager-hires-i-the-journos--jJRVtcM994 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/-jJRVtcM994/maxresdefault.jpg Scottish clubs should axe rookie manager hires I The Journos Peter Martin, Tam Cowan and Hugh MacDonald discuss the Scottish Premiership managers who could be set for the axe, Scotland's chances at EURO 2024, the standard of Scottish football, Sky's English Premier League deal and the worst football transfers in history.

Early Steps and Current Stake Having entered the Premier League broadcasting arena in the 2019-20 season, Amazon Prime secured a package of 60 live matches over three seasons, primarily focused on the festive period. The deal, valued at around £90million, was retained under the same terms when the Premier League extended its domestic TV deal for an additional three years due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Industry sources suggest that the Premier League initially offered Amazon a discounted entry to entice the streaming service into the competitive broadcasting market. This strategic move aimed to diversify the range of broadcasters and tap into the streaming market's vast potential. Despite scepticism about Amazon's participation in the last auction, the prospect of securing rights at a more accessible price point remains. Broadcasters anticipate that the least expensive of the five available packages could command a yearly fee of around £300m. Amazon's interest appears to be piqued by the prospect of a longer-term deal, offering greater stability and justifying production investments.

Active initially from 1981 to 1986, they witnessed various reformations over the years, most recently in 2023. Their musical journey intertwines with the evolution of the Scottish music scene and beyond. The Initial Years and Musical Style Formed in the early 1980s, The Bluebells' sound resonated with the jangly pop of their Scottish contemporaries like Aztec Camera and Orange Juice. Led by guitarist and founder Bobby Bluebell (Robert Hodgens), the band created a distinct style that combined catchy melodies with a new-wave sensibility. They achieved considerable success with three top 40 hits in the UK Singles Chart - "I'm Falling", "Cath", and their most acclaimed song "Young at Heart". The latter, co-written with Siobhan Fahey of Bananarama and violinist Bobby Valentino, originally appeared on the Bananarama album "Deep Sea Skiving" and reached number 8 on the UK Singles Chart in 1984. Their discography includes an EP, "The Bluebells," and a full-length album, "Sisters."

Yet, every so often, a tale emerges that captures the heart of football aficionados worldwide. Paul Lambert's journey from the Scottish league to becoming a Champions League winner with Borussia Dortmund is one such narrative that continues to inspire. The Leap from Scotland to Germany After making a name for himself at Motherwell, Lambert's footballing journey took an unexpected turn. A trial arranged with PSV Eindhoven didn't materialize into a contract as the Dutch side was in pursuit of a winger. However, fate had other plans as a subsequent trial with Borussia Dortmund culminated in a contract following an impressive preseason tournament performance. The same summer, Portuguese international Paulo Sousa also joined the Bundesliga side, initially perceived as a direct competitor to Lambert’s position. Yet, the Scottish midfielder's tenacious performances in the early Bundesliga fixtures earned him a spot in the starting lineup. The Underdog Triumph The 1996-97 season was a testing period for Dortmund. After basking in the glory of back-to-back Bundesliga titles, the team found itself trailing the indomitable Bayern Munich. However, the real narrative unfolded in the UEFA Champions League.

The Glasgow-based club hosted the Italian giants in a heated encounter which ended in favour of Lazio, courtesy of a 96th-minute header from Pedro. This marked Celtic's second game in the prestigious competition, but the atmosphere was marred by some unacceptable behaviours from the stands. Previously, Celtic had faced UEFA's wrath for a similar misdemeanour during their away fixture against Feyenoord in Rotterdam on September 19, which attracted a fine of £23,000. The recent incident against Lazio could see the club handed a heftier fine, reflecting UEFA’s intent to clamp down on such unruly behaviours to maintain the sport's decorum. The case has now been handed over to the UEFA Control, Ethics, and Disciplinary Body for thorough examination and subsequent action. A statement released by UEFA on Thursday confirmed the opening of disciplinary proceedings due to the throwing of fireworks and the illicit banner https://www.youtube.com/embed/Nh66uimZ3kk 3543 2023-10-12T09:00:09+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/asking-tough-questions-about-rangers-i-the-journos-kgHc0e-fxBg 2026-10-13T21:06:07+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kgHc0e-fxBg/maxresdefault.jpg Asking Tough Questions About Rangers I The Journos Were Rangers duped by Michael Beale?

The latest guidelines, released for consultation in late August, target buses ferrying supporters to football fixtures. If implemented, these regulations would align Scottish practices with those existing in England and Wales. Many fans took to social media, expressing a combination of anger and confusion about these potential rules. Specifically: Buses would need police approval before stopping within a 10-mile radius of a stadium. Stops at licensed establishments would necessitate clearance from authorities. Additionally, if alcohol is served, it must be paired with a 'substantial meal'. Buses can't halt at unauthorized spots for picking up fans without notifying the police. Buses must arrive at a stadium 'no earlier than two hours before and no later than one hour before the scheduled game kick-off'.

In a recent development following Spain's triumphant win at the Women's World Cup, Luis Rubiales, the president of the Spanish football federation, has issued an apology. The apology comes after he unexpectedly kissed Jenni Hermoso on the lips during the awards presentation after Spain's narrow 1-0 victory against England. The spontaneous act quickly became a hot topic of discussion, especially on social media. The conversation sparked debate on the boundaries of celebratory gestures, raising the question: How much is too much?

However, a subsequent statement on her behalf highlighted a more understanding perspective, defending Rubiales's impulsive act. The incident has sparked a wider discussion on the appropriateness of such gestures, especially in professional settings. Many online commentators expressed their opinions, suggesting that Rubiales may have overshadowed the team's monumental achievement with his unforeseen action. While some see it as a mere celebratory gesture, others opine that certain boundaries should never be crossed, irrespective of the occasion. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding and respecting personal boundaries, even in moments of jubilation. In the wake of the discussions, it's essential to remember the primary achievement: Spain's monumental victory in the Women's World Cup. Celebrations aside, the team's performance and dedication to the sport remain commendable and should not be overshadowed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ALSy0HnVbRI 3812 2023-08-31T09:00:08+00:00 yes https://plzsoccer.com/videos/straight-talk-aiden-mcgeady-episode-2-6Ht9HUIHjdc 2026-10-13T21:06:05+00:00 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6Ht9HUIHjdc/maxresdefault.jpg Straight Talk: Aiden McGeady | Episode 2 Aiden McGeady talks about breaking into the first Celtic FC team; the influence of his father John McGeady; playing for Martin O'Neill and Gordon Strachan at Celtic; his transfer to Spartak Moscow; playing for Everton and Sunderland; Lee Johnson's managerial style at Sunderland and how it was different at Hibs; playing for the Republic of Ireland and much more!

The Early Years McGeady's love for football began at Busby Boys Club, a local youth team. His potential was evident early on, and he was courted by several English clubs. Still, his heart lay closer to home. Committing to Celtic in his early teens, McGeady quickly rose through the academy ranks alongside Charlie Mulgrew, a promising start that culminated in a Scottish Youth Cup win in 2003. 2004 was a turning point for McGeady.

Neil Lennon: "Robson must be given Aberdeen job" 🚨 EXCLUSIVE! Neil Lennon hails Barry Robson's 'fantastic audition' for the Aberdeen job 'I don't know if anyone could come in and do better than Barry has done' Neil Lennon talks about Barry Robson as Aberdeen FC interim manager and how he feels that Robson has done enough to secure the role as the next Aberdeen manager. Lennon states: "If Rangers had gone one up then they would have probably won the game comfortably. But kudos to Barry. You know, I think that's four or five games in a row now. He's done a brilliant job in turning things around for Aberdeen. You know, he's making a fantastic audition for the job. Peter Martin asks the former Celtic manager: "Yeah. Is there any way that they do not give him the job? Do you think they should give him it now?" Lennon responds: "Yeah I think they should yeah. I don't know if anyone could come in and do better than Barry has done and he's got good staff there with Steve Agnew and Liam Fox. I think. You know an interim job can be difficult or it can be easy." However, Neil Lennon is quick to highlight the difference between being an interim football manager and a full-time football manager: "There's no pressure on you Pete and you become friends with all the players. When you get the job things change a little. But I think Barry is mature enough and has been at Aberdeen long enough to know the culture of the club, the environment of the club and what's required of the club and we're seeing that now."

The former Dundee F.C. manager and Scotland Assistant Manager Mark McGhee's began his professional career in 1975 at Morton. In 1977 he moved to England, signing for Newcastle United. Despite an encouraging start at St James' Park, managerial changes at the club saw McGhee being played less often. He returned to Scotland in March 1979 as Alex Ferguson's first major signing for Aberdeen. Aberdeen won the Scottish Premier Division, the first time in 15 years that a club outwith the Old Firm had finished Scottish Champions. At Aberdeen McGhee went on to win a further league title in 1984 as well as three successive Scottish Cup wins from 1982 to 1984. He was also part of the Aberdeen side that defeated Real Madrid 2-1 in the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1983. Mark McGhee then won the European Super Cup the following season, with him scoring against Hamburg in the second leg at Pittodrie. During his time at Aberdeen, he also won the Scottish PFA Players' Player of the Year in 1982. McGhee moved to Germany in the summer of 1984, with Hamburg paying Aberdeen a transfer fee of £330,000. Due to injuries, McGhee moved back to Scotland to join Celtic 16 months later after scoring only 12 goals for Hamburg. McGhee won a further Scottish Premier Division title in 1986 as Celtic. The following year saw McGhee struggle at Parkhead through injury and the inability to displace Mo Johnston and Brian McClair from the starting line-up. However, the departure of several Celtic players in the summer of 1987 gave McGhee a new lease of life at Celtic Park and he won a League and Scottish Cup double in the club's Centenary Season. He won a further Scottish Cup in 1989 and was Celtic's top scorer that season, also finishing joint top scorer in the Scottish Premier Division alongside Aberdeen's Charlie Nicholas. McGhee joined Reading as player-manager in May 1991.
