The Scottish Football Show

Scotland are out, Steve Clarke is gone and it's the last episode of the season. Andrew Slaven, Laura Brannan and Findlay Marks are in need of a therapy session. Join them for the World Cup debrief, looking ahead to who should be the new manager and whether the reaction from the fans was justified.  It's time for some closure.

The Tartan Army have left Boston and are heading to Miami for the third group game of the 2026 World Cup.  And the squad will follow on as they prepare to take on Brazil in the do-or-die clash on Wednesday. Andrew Slaven and Laura Brannan look back on the defeat to Morocco, Scotland's chances against the former world champions and whether a defeat could still see them progress.  Should John M...

One game down, three points in the bag and Scotland lead Group C at the World Cup. It's been a glorious start to the 2026 tournament, so join us as we look back on the Tartan Army's Boston invasion and ahead to the second game against Morocco.  Will Steve Clarke go with one up top? Will Boston get more booze on tap in time? Andrew Slaven, Findlay Marks and Laura Brannan are loving every...

We're in full-on World Cup mode now - Laura's even arranged her whole honeymoon to take place in the US in the lead up to the tournament starting! And while national team warmed up for America in the best fashion possible with a big win over fellow tournament-goers Curacao, has it come at a huge price? Regardless of what happens this summer, Steve Clarke will be going nowhere as Scotland...

Andrew's back! Just in time to discuss possibly the most disappointing end to season ever? Well, unless you're a Celtic fan, of course... Yes, Hearts fell at the final hurdle with an all-too-familiar name on the Premiership trophy once again. But we discuss what actually makes a deserving champion... And with the Scotland World Cup squad announcement imminent, we try to determine who had...

Andrew's still M.I.A. but Findlay Marks and Laura Brannan are back once again to pour over the never-ending drama of the best Premiership race in decades. With the possibility of Hearts winning a historic title as early as Wednesday night, we spoke to journalist and author Anthony Brown about what it would mean for the Jambos - and Scottish football - if they can finish of the season on top....

Anthony Brown, journalist, author and Jambo, joins Findlay and Laura for an in depth chat about the possibility of the Scottish Premiership crown heading to Gorgie Road. With two games to go, and two teams left in it, it all comes down to this week. Hearts take on Falkirk on Wednesday while Celtic travel to Motherwell, before the season-ending finale to end all finales... Celtic v Hearts on Saturd...

And then there were two... Andrew mirrors Rangers' deletion from the title race at the weekend by going MIA for this week's record, but fear not as Laura Brannan and Findlay Marks are still here to act as your sherpas through the chaotic landscape that is Scottish football. Livi's relegation was confirmed from the Premiership, as was Ross County's from the Championship, but the...

More twists and turns than Oliver Twister doing a handbrake turn whilst playing Twister and eating a Twister - the best title race we've seen in Scotland shows now sign of slowing down after another massive weekend in the top flight. Who's going to end it on top? And will they "deserve" to win it? And if you think the title race and all its permutations is complicated, wait til...

Gavin Noon from Scotland's Coefficient - the mathematical genius of Scottish football - joins us for a special episode.  Who is qualifying for Europe next season and how many rounds do they have to play before reaching the tournament? Could Celtic really be six games away from UEFA's lowest competition? And what is this anomaly that could see Rangers fans backing Shakhtar Donetsk when th...

The Scottish Cup semi-finals are done and dusted, and there will be some familiar faces meeting each other in the showpiece in May. One face that (probably) won't be at Hampden for the final, however, is pundit Michael Stewart who was barred from entering the national stadium at the weekend by the SFA. Does his exclusion set a dangerous precedent for freedom of speech in our game?  There&apos...

Yes, your feed HAS refreshed and this IS a new episode!  We couldn't let the most explosive season in Scottish football finish without us could we? Join us - Andrew Slaven, Laura Brannan and Findlay Marks every week between now and the end of the season. We start off with a look back at some of THE most insanely cinch moments that should not be allowed to be forgotten, we look forward to the...

We're back! For one night only... to mark the greatest night of our lives. Scotland have qualified for the World Cup for the first time in 28 years. We've topped our qualification group for the first time since 1982. Steve Clarke is now officially our most successful manager of all time. And the three greatest Scotland goals in our history came on the one night, in the most incredible 4-...

It’s the end of the season and the end of an era. Scotland bow out of the June friendlies with one win and one defeat, but should the SFA be calling time on Steve Clarke's reign ahead of the World Cup qualifiers And would someone like Big Ange be a perfect replacement... or even David Martindale?! Ross County are down as the 24/25 season concludes fully, with everyone now fully pushing on wit...

Aberdeen snatched Scottish Cup glory in the most dramatic fashion, ending Celtic's treble dreams on penalties. Scott McTominay sealed his outstanding season in Italy by winning Napoli the title, scoring a potential goal of the season in the process and winning the Serie A Player of the Year. The boy can do no wrong. And he's not the only one lifting silverware... Billy Gilmour, Lewis Fer...

Scott McTominay is ripping it up in Serie A and the Napoli fans are signing That’s Amore.  The leagues are being wrapped up as Celtic seal the Premiership, Peterhead clinch League Two and East Kilbride edge another step closer to the SPFL.  But it’s all about the Championship this weekend as Falkirk and Livingston battle it out for the final league title, on the last day of their season.  Neil Cri...

Aberdeen and Celtic will meet in the Scottish Cup Final in the season finale showdown, but if Dave Cormack is to be believed, that's a hell of a journey for the Dons support...  It's all happening in the lower leagues with Livingston closing the gap on Falkirk - are the Bairns bottling it? And Peterhead host East Fife this weekend in the top of the table showdown in League Two. Hamilton...

Not one but two Scottish sides were crowned Champions this weekend, but Rangers denied Celtic the chance to be the third in what is becoming typical Bazza Comeback fashion. While Arbroath and Brora Rangers sealed their respective titles, St Mirren snatched the final top six spot on Split Day, denying Motherwell and Hearts. League reconstruction is still hot on everyone's lips, would you have...

Have the wheels come off Scotland after they slip to a 3-0 home defeat to Greece. How does Steve Clarke recover from a horror show in Hampden? Join Andrew Slaven, commentator Andy Bargh and author John Bleasedale as they dissect another disaster. But thats not all - Dumbarton became the first club to be relegated in Scotland. How bad is it for the Sons? Falkirk on the brink of a return to the Prem...

Talk about Super Sunday?! 11 goals in two derbies left us with loads to talk about this week. Dumbarton also avoided relegation in the dying seconds... but that's only denying the inevitable for a little longer. Scotland take on Greece in the Nations League play off, for a place in League A. But while there are some exciting young additions to the squad, we question the worth in handing call...

If it wasn't for two midge's bawhairs Rangers could have been going into the Europa League second leg 5-1 up on Fenerbahce. But they're still taking a healthy 3-1 advantage in over Jose Mourinho's side this week. Join the industry-experienced; Andrew Slaven, Laura Brannan and Findlay Marks for the latest ridiculous stories across Scottish football. Meanwhile, the Scottish Cup i...

Half time flash interviews, scrapping 0-0 draws and pubs that don't play the commentary... what do you hate about modern football? Barry Ferguson has taken interim charge of Rangers and it has led to one of the most entertaining week's on Scottish football Twitter. The Staunch Avengers are in place and we're all here for it, get the popcorn out. Hibs have moved third in the Premiers...

Philippe Clement's time at Rangers comes to an end... far later than we all expected. And so has Kris Doolan's at Partick Thistle too. But also in the world of managerial movements, Motherwell welcome Michael Wimmer. And David Gray is essentially a new man at Hibs too these days?! Jose Mourinho is coming to Ibrox too... but unlikely in that context. Probably just with Fenerbahce in the E...

Philippe Clement is clinging onto his job as Rangers manager, despite suffering one of the worst defeats in Scottish Cup history at the weekend.  We talk about how this would be comparable to the world’s worst relationship, just in time for some joyful Valentine’s Day celebrations.  But the cup shock wasn’t all doom and gloom, Queen’s Park fan Enzo, from Spiders Talk Podcast, is peeled off the cei...

As the transfer window slams shut for another 6 months, we delve behind the scenes with Sky Sports' Anthony Joseph to see what makes one of the most dramatic nights of the football calendar tick. Stuart Kettlewell has left his post at Motherwell, citing the abuse he was receiving from supporters as his main reason for walking away. And it was an absolute coupon-buster last week in Scottish fo...
