00:01:23Ah, Scottish people playing in Italy.
00:01:26It just seems to be all the rage at the moment because, Alison, it looks as if Lennon Miller's
00:01:32on his way to Udinese.
00:01:33What a great move that will be.
00:01:35I think it'll be a fantastic move for him and I think he'll maybe be encouraged by the
00:01:39success that a few players have had across recent seasons.
00:01:43I think we had his dad in the studio maybe this time last year and he was speaking about
00:01:48how a move abroad would be fitting for him.
00:01:51Somehow he wasn't going to just take a move for the sake of it whenever someone came in
00:01:56that the next move had to be the right move, that they had to speak to the coach, they had
00:02:00to know that he was going to go somewhere that was actually going to develop him as a player,
00:02:04stretch him as a player.
00:02:05He's not going just because a club have come in and tabled and offered it.
00:02:09They will see this as the next step in his development.
00:02:13Yeah, and in a shy sort of way, I'm kind of glad hopefully he'll get regular football
00:02:18rather than people often associating him here with the likes of Celtic going to sign him.
00:02:24Yeah, I think that'll suit him over there, Peter.
00:02:26I think foreign football, playing abroad will suit him.
00:02:28I think he's technically a really, really good player physically, athletically.
00:02:32I don't think he's probably Premier League or Championship level just yet,
00:02:36but I think over there, probably a similar player to Lewis Ferguson,
00:02:40who's over there and done really, really well.
00:02:41So if he can come over and have the same impact as Lewis Ferguson had
00:02:44and get into the Scotland team, and he's been linked to big clubs as well,
00:02:47then he'll be buzzing.
00:02:48But I think it's great for all parties.
00:02:51I think Mother will get a few quid for him.
00:02:52I think they had to sell him this window.
00:02:54I think he's only a year left in Udinese.
00:02:56He's got a great young player for £3-4 million.
00:03:00So I think everyone will be happy with this.
00:03:02Yeah, absolutely.
00:03:02Okay, lots to talk about on the programme.
00:03:05As ever, Scottish football is the gift that just keeps on giving
00:03:10from one week of elation, excitement,
00:03:14and then all of a sudden it can go flat as a pancake over the weekend domestically.
00:03:18Here are the results for you to look at and digest
00:03:21and give us your thoughts on.
00:03:23Livingston 3, Falkirk 1, St Mirren 0, Motherwell 0,
00:03:27Rangers 1, Dundee 1, Aberdeen 0, Celtic 2,
00:03:30Dundee United 2, Hearts 3,
00:03:33and Hibernian 2, Kilmarnock 2.
00:03:36That was the results.
00:03:38Tam and I had our predictor heads on on Friday,
00:03:41but I don't think we had too many of them correct,
00:03:44the way it was all unfolding over Saturday and Sunday.
00:03:48This is how the table looks at the end of the weekend.
00:03:51Hearts at the top of the table with Celtic,
00:03:53also a joint top on six points.
00:03:56And then Livingston, Hibbs, and then Kilmarnock and Rangers.
00:03:59Rangers at this point, four points behind Celtic
00:04:02after only two games played, Ruffy.
00:04:05It is quite incredible.
00:04:06And Aberdeen, the Cup winners, bottom of the table.
00:04:09Yeah, I think as far as Aberdeen's concerned,
00:04:11I think the Cup win at the end of the season
00:04:14kept everybody on board.
00:04:16But I think if you look at the stats for the whole season,
00:04:19I think they'd only won about four games out of 27.
00:04:22So that's something they'll have to rectify.
00:04:24I think the Aberdeen supporters will demand
00:04:27a lot more success this year with that Cup win.
00:04:30As far as Rangers are concerned, yeah, it's up and down.
00:04:32You could see the stadium again emptying near the end.
00:04:36You know, they're not happy.
00:04:38There are a lot of empty seats at the end.
00:04:40They're not hanging on in there.
00:04:41And a lot of unhappy Rangers supporters.
00:04:43Yeah, we're going to talk about that in detail as well.
00:04:47So many good performances, and it's only right and proper.
00:04:49We'll do this every week, Ali.
00:04:51I know that, you know, certainly in the newspaper end of things,
00:04:55when players used to look and see,
00:04:56have I managed to get in the team of the week?
00:04:58I think it's only right and proper that we get the argument started early.
00:05:02I've picked the team of the week.
00:05:05I actually picked the two best games of the weekend,
00:05:07to be honest with you, Tam.
00:05:09And here's that team of the week.
00:05:11In goal, Schmeichel, Lawal, the right back for Livingston,
00:05:15in there alongside Stuart Finlay, Clark Robertson,
00:05:18and Ciarán Tierney.
00:05:20And then from there, I think from the left-hand side,
00:05:25Lewis Smith, who scored an absolute worldie in his match.
00:05:30And then over and above that, in that midfield area,
00:05:33Rio Hattati with his great goal.
00:05:35Kamara of Dundee United, a beggar partner,
00:05:39who looks as if he's going to be a real force this season.
00:05:43Brannan, his goal is something we're going to talk about.
00:05:46And then Dolcic and Negrin is the team of the week.
00:05:50So plenty to discuss there, Ali, in the choices we've made.
00:05:55Some you agree with, some you won't.
00:05:57Indeed.
00:05:57I think that's the beauty of the team of the week,
00:06:00that there's no one that sees it through very partisan lenses,
00:06:04that people just think, yes,
00:06:06I think that's who deserves to be in the team of the week,
00:06:08so that's who'll go on it.
00:06:09Have we missed anybody?
00:06:10I don't think he's likely to get in the team of the week just yet.
00:06:21But can I just say this to you, Tam?
00:06:24Again, it's very rare not a single Rangers player in it.
00:06:28And that tells you the story of the first game we're going to talk about,
00:06:31because yet again, we are in a situation where Rangers looking as if they've turned things around
00:06:38with a European performance to be positive about,
00:06:41and then back domestically, they were lucky to get a point.
00:06:45Yeah, they were.
00:06:46I mean, you get into the game after a fantastic result during the week in Europe.
00:06:49You know, the fans are buzzing again.
00:06:51You know, Dundee at home, who started the season poorly,
00:06:54and everything pointed towards a comfortable home win.
00:06:57But even from the first five, ten minutes, Rangers just didn't start well.
00:07:00And I thought Dundee looked really comfortable.
00:07:02You've got to give Stephen Presley's coaching staff a lot of credit.
00:07:05They were very tight, organised, and they were dangerous on the break.
00:07:08You know, they hit the post in the first half as well.
00:07:10And Rangers looked devoid of any ideas.
00:07:12Obviously, the sending off affects the game as well.
00:07:14Dundee go ahead, and you think that Dundee are going to see the game out.
00:07:18Dubious penalty at the end that we're going to speak about,
00:07:20and Rangers get a point, but just not good enough, Peter.
00:07:22And for Rangers to drop two points to Motherwell and Dundee
00:07:25is a horrendous start when you look at the way Celtic have started.
00:07:29You know, four points behind, I think.
00:07:31And obviously, if Rangers go through, they'll postpone that St Mern game.
00:07:34You know, Celtic pick up three points against Livingston.
00:07:37And all of a sudden, you're going to that first old Firm game,
00:07:39a possibility for Celtic to go ten points ahead of Rangers will win.
00:07:41It's incredible, the start.
00:07:43And Russell Martin under extreme pressure already.
00:07:46Well, the Rangers manager has emphasised yet again
00:07:49that this is going to take time.
00:07:51The three clubs I've been at, there's a bit of pain,
00:07:53and then when you get through that pain, it's so worth it.
00:07:56So, I don't think I expected anything less coming here
00:08:00that it's not going to be a quick fix.
00:08:02This club's not had success for a long, long time.
00:08:04So, I've just got asked about the supporters' reaction in there at all.
00:08:07I just don't have a problem with it, because I understand it.
00:08:09Like, they're at a point now that this club and the supporters
00:08:11where something needed change, and the ownership's changed.
00:08:15There's a new coaching staff, there's new players.
00:08:18There's hopefully a new way of behaving at the training ground properly every single day
00:08:23regarding standards and what's expected at this football club.
00:08:27So, it's not a quick fix.
00:08:29OK, it's not a quick fix.
00:08:33Let me offer you my tuppence worth on clearly a message
00:08:37that has been forgotten by many a Rangers fan.
00:08:40You know, you can go back to John Bennett,
00:08:42you can listen to what John Gilligan had to say.
00:08:45You're now in a situation where, quite simply,
00:08:49Patrick Stewart has mentioned it as well,
00:08:51there's a process here of a rebuilding.
00:08:53It's not a takeover that is the equivalent of a Lawrence Marlborough,
00:08:59you know, with David Holmes at the helm,
00:09:01or eventually a David Murray.
00:09:03This is a gradual process in a business
00:09:05that has been, you know, structurally wrong for a number of years.
00:09:11So, it is going to take time.
00:09:13I mean, I was listening to someone, a Rangers fan,
00:09:16on one of these podcasts,
00:09:18talking about it's time to sack the manager.
00:09:20And I'm thinking, can this country get any more stupid
00:09:23when it comes to hiring a manager to do a job?
00:09:27And after two games, you're suddenly saying it's time to bid him.
00:09:30It's also the reality of life in Glasgow.
00:09:33There is no time.
00:09:35And I think I 100% agree with you.
00:09:39It's ludicrous to be thinking about managers being sacked
00:09:43and all the rest of it after three seconds of the season being underway.
00:09:48It's nonsense.
00:09:50However, the reality of managing a club like Celtic or Rangers
00:09:53invites a microscopic intensity
00:09:56that is not like anywhere else in the world.
00:10:00And the fact that Rangers have dropped points to Motherwell and to Dundee,
00:10:06teams that they should be beating,
00:10:08that they comfortably have the resources to go out and beat,
00:10:11even if you consider this is a long-term project
00:10:15and there is a restructure
00:10:16and there are all sorts of things,
00:10:18over the course of the campaign,
00:10:20I think people would forgive not winning a title
00:10:23if you can see that things are going in the right direction.
00:10:26When you're struggling to break down teams like Motherwell and Dundee,
00:10:29the frustration is that what you're seeing
00:10:31is many of the problems of old.
00:10:33Now, what happens then at Rangers when Celtic are winning,
00:10:38so you have this four-point gap that opens up as a panic
00:10:41because right away you're on the back foot
00:10:43and right away you're thinking,
00:10:45oh, Celtic win that next game
00:10:47when you've got a free weekend at seven points,
00:10:49there's an old firm game.
00:10:50What happens then?
00:10:51The gap could be,
00:10:52it could be this,
00:10:53could happen,
00:10:54that could happen.
00:10:55Every scenario is worked out
00:10:57and if you were to get to a point
00:10:58where you're going in on the 1st of September
00:11:01and Celtic are 10 points ahead of Rangers
00:11:04with the Rangers' head with a game in hand,
00:11:06the pressure becomes intolerable
00:11:08because it goes from game to game.
00:11:10You can't afford to slip at all.
00:11:12No, I accept that
00:11:13and I think we all understand the very nature of it, Ruffy,
00:11:16but in a situation where there is a narrative
00:11:18that they're trying to push out there,
00:11:20quite simply,
00:11:21it's erratic even over a seven-day period.
00:11:24You know, from the Motherwell game,
00:11:27to suddenly the performance
00:11:28which was shoots of positivity
00:11:31around Victoria Pilsen,
00:11:33regardless of what standard you think
00:11:34Victoria Pilsen was,
00:11:36it was still a good performance,
00:11:37it was still a 3-0 victory,
00:11:39it still puts them a stage closer
00:11:40to group stages of the Champions League,
00:11:43whether you think they're going to get there or not.
00:11:45You look at it and you see
00:11:47he's tweaking everything around.
00:11:49Every one of us,
00:11:50unless somebody's going to contest it,
00:11:52could actually tell Russell Martin,
00:11:54and he knows it himself,
00:11:55the problem is,
00:11:57Rangers can't defend.
00:11:59They don't defend.
00:12:00They don't defend from front,
00:12:02middle to back.
00:12:03They can't handle set pieces
00:12:04and they get caught out.
00:12:06And they do not know how to defend
00:12:08even when they're trying to
00:12:09take a game to someone
00:12:10because they get caught out.
00:12:12The back line is the problem.
00:12:14It doesn't matter how many times
00:12:15you look at it,
00:12:16when you're conceding goals
00:12:17and losing games,
00:12:18the defenders are the problem.
00:12:19Yeah, but that's up to the manager
00:12:21to sort that.
00:12:22And he has sorted it.
00:12:23He's brought in a cent and a half
00:12:25who cost a few bob
00:12:26and he is spending more money
00:12:28than Motherwell and Dundee.
00:12:31So this is a short fix
00:12:37or something like that.
00:12:38It's not a quick fix.
00:12:39Yeah, I think it has to be.
00:12:41It has to be for him
00:12:42because he never had 50%
00:12:44of the Rangers fans
00:12:45shouting to the rooftops,
00:12:48he's the manager we want.
00:12:49So he's on a sticky hook
00:12:50right at the very beginning
00:12:51because half of them
00:12:52didn't want him there.
00:12:54They wanted a bigger world
00:12:55or bigger name or whatever.
00:12:57So when you're spending
00:12:57the kind of money he's spending,
00:12:59I don't know what,
00:12:59run about 10 million so far,
00:13:01these fans expect you to go out
00:13:04and beat Motherwell
00:13:04and beat Dundee
00:13:05and beat them quite comfortably.
00:13:06I also think part of the problem,
00:13:08I agree with you
00:13:09about the backline,
00:13:10but I also think
00:13:11they struggle to break teams down.
00:13:14They struggle for any creativity.
00:13:16A lot of the ball
00:13:17without really being able
00:13:19to offer any significant menace
00:13:21in the final third.
00:13:22They're turgid
00:13:24in the middle of the park at times.
00:13:26I think the new system,
00:13:27new players,
00:13:28you're not really seeing
00:13:29the rasking that you saw
00:13:31towards the end of last term
00:13:33who offered that bit of creativity
00:13:35of being able to unlock a defence,
00:13:38being able to open things up a bit
00:13:39and I think that's a huge problem
00:13:40for the Rangers.
00:13:41I think you look at the two games,
00:13:42Peter,
00:13:43Motherwell away and Dundee at home.
00:13:45The Rangers have scored two goals,
00:13:46one's from a corner
00:13:47and one's for a penalty.
00:13:48They can't,
00:13:49you know,
00:13:49that's a damning indictment
00:13:51of how poor they are offensively.
00:13:53They can't break teams down,
00:13:54particularly at Ibrox as well,
00:13:55you know,
00:13:55so you're scoring two set pieces.
00:13:57And yet the midweek game though,
00:13:59on Tuesday night,
00:13:59that front three.
00:14:01Because Victoria Poulsen
00:14:02looked formidable.
00:14:03Victoria Poulsen came
00:14:04and there was space.
00:14:06Again,
00:14:06we mentioned it in midweek,
00:14:07Tam,
00:14:08you cannot get to this erratic
00:14:10knee-jerk reaction constantly,
00:14:12you know,
00:14:12from one game to the next,
00:14:14turning around and saying,
00:14:15they're back.
00:14:16Because that was the one thing
00:14:18we were talking about is,
00:14:19you can't get from a Motherwell
00:14:20to a Victoria Poulsen
00:14:21and go,
00:14:22you know,
00:14:23Rangers are back
00:14:24when you see those little
00:14:25passages of play
00:14:26and it's because domestically,
00:14:28Ruffy,
00:14:29suddenly it can all fall flat again.
00:14:31And by the way,
00:14:32this is a Dundee team
00:14:33the week before I watched up
00:14:34at Den's
00:14:35who were woeful.
00:14:37Yeah,
00:14:37and we all sat here on Friday
00:14:39and said,
00:14:39this is going to be three or four,
00:14:41the way they were last week
00:14:43and the way Rangers were
00:14:44in midweek.
00:14:45But you have to say,
00:14:46as Tam said,
00:14:46the Dundee manager
00:14:47got his tactics spot on.
00:14:49The two people that created
00:14:51all the problems
00:14:51against Poulsen
00:14:52were the two wide men.
00:14:54And all he did was play
00:14:55two guys out wide
00:14:56to stop them going forward.
00:14:57And they just nullified
00:14:59all the good things
00:15:01that happened in midweek
00:15:02and it never happened
00:15:02at the weekend.
00:15:03Yeah,
00:15:04and this is,
00:15:05again,
00:15:05on the flip side of this,
00:15:06you have to give great credit
00:15:08to Dundee
00:15:09and Stephen Presley
00:15:10thought they deserved
00:15:11more than just a one point.
00:15:12That would have been
00:15:13the perfect performance,
00:15:15but it wasn't to be.
00:15:17You know,
00:15:17I think
00:15:17I've talked a lot about
00:15:19time progression,
00:15:22seeing improvements.
00:15:24You know,
00:15:24I saw some green shoots
00:15:25last week
00:15:26against Hibernian
00:15:27and again,
00:15:28further improvements today.
00:15:30I thought we deserved more,
00:15:31yeah.
00:15:31I thought we had
00:15:32some really good moments.
00:15:33We obviously hit the post
00:15:34with some really good
00:15:36counter-attack moments.
00:15:38And as I've said,
00:15:40you know,
00:15:40I was exceptionally proud
00:15:41of their performance.
00:15:43Yeah,
00:15:44fair play to Stephen Presley.
00:15:45He did say in the after-match
00:15:46press conference
00:15:46against Thames
00:15:47that he could see
00:15:48that the shape was there,
00:15:50that the organisation
00:15:51was there.
00:15:51He just needs to
00:15:52obviously try
00:15:53and get goals
00:15:55at key moments
00:15:56and then work on
00:15:58what he's trying
00:15:59to build there.
00:16:00And he did say last week
00:16:01he needs six players.
00:16:02He's brought one in,
00:16:03so he only needs another
00:16:03five.
00:16:05But I still say
00:16:07in your wildest predictions,
00:16:09Tam,
00:16:09you never thought Dundee
00:16:10you were capable
00:16:10of going there.
00:16:11Did they?
00:16:12I mean,
00:16:13let's not forget,
00:16:13they scored before
00:16:14Giga gets sent off.
00:16:16Was it a red card?
00:16:18Yeah,
00:16:18it probably was,
00:16:19but I don't think
00:16:19there was a lot of contact.
00:16:20But I think
00:16:21as a striker,
00:16:21as soon as you get
00:16:22wrong side of the defender
00:16:23in that situation,
00:16:24you go down,
00:16:25it's a red card.
00:16:26I don't think
00:16:26there was a lot of contact
00:16:27there,
00:16:27but once the referee
00:16:28gives it,
00:16:29he's not going to change it.
00:16:31The penalty kick,
00:16:31again,
00:16:32I don't think
00:16:32there was a lot in it,
00:16:33Peter.
00:16:33I thought he played for it.
00:16:35But if you're a striker
00:16:36or a forward player,
00:16:36you get by the defender,
00:16:37you get wrong side,
00:16:39you go down,
00:16:40you ask a question
00:16:40to the referee,
00:16:41and people will say
00:16:41that's cheating.
00:16:42But for me,
00:16:43that's being a forward-thinking
00:16:45player and trying to do
00:16:46something for your team,
00:16:47trying to win your team
00:16:48a penalty kick,
00:16:49trying to get another
00:16:50player sent off,
00:16:50that's part of the game.
00:16:52I thought both of them
00:16:53were soft,
00:16:53to be honest,
00:16:54but I can understand
00:16:55why the referee gave them.
00:16:56Yeah,
00:16:56I thought it was a soft penalty,
00:16:58to be honest with you.
00:16:59Yeah,
00:16:59I think there was
00:17:00a small contact,
00:17:02but I think the boy
00:17:03made a melee at going down.
00:17:04I think if you really
00:17:05look at it closely,
00:17:06he actually stubbed
00:17:07his own foot onto the ground
00:17:08to make it even more convincing.
00:17:10But as Tam said,
00:17:12in modern day now,
00:17:13you just have to touch somebody
00:17:14and then you've got to
00:17:16come up with a decision.
00:17:17I thought it was
00:17:18the wrong decision.
00:17:18I thought it was
00:17:19very harsh on the day.
00:17:20Should they have got
00:17:21a winner,
00:17:22was it?
00:17:22I mean,
00:17:22at the end of it,
00:17:23Cyril Dessers gave
00:17:24Don Robertson
00:17:25absolute pelters.
00:17:27He wasn't happy
00:17:28with the offside,
00:17:28but it's almost like
00:17:30night and day,
00:17:31it's offside or it's not.
00:17:33I thought it was very clear.
00:17:34I thought he was
00:17:35well offside.
00:17:37I think even
00:17:38like on first viewing,
00:17:39just that I thought
00:17:40it was offside.
00:17:41When you watch it back,
00:17:42I think you can see
00:17:43he's offside.
00:17:43I saw his frustration
00:17:44at full time,
00:17:46but I think his frustration
00:17:47probably owed more
00:17:48to the afternoon
00:17:49and the level of performance
00:17:51across 90 minutes
00:17:52and it did
00:17:52in that moment itself.
00:17:54The penalty for me,
00:17:56I struggled with it.
00:17:57I watched it back
00:17:58a few times.
00:17:58I think it was very clumsy,
00:17:59but I thought it was very soft.
00:18:06Once he gives it,
00:18:06he's not going to change it.
00:18:07If he didn't give it,
00:18:08he wouldn't have changed it either.
00:18:09The initial decision
00:18:10was always going to stand
00:18:11in that situation,
00:18:12Peter.
00:18:12Where do they go from here?
00:18:15It's that $64,000 question
00:18:18with regards to Rangers.
00:18:19Does Russell Martin
00:18:20just have to dig in
00:18:21because there's an early
00:18:23doomsday scenario
00:18:24which you just painted there,
00:18:26which, again,
00:18:28there's nothing like
00:18:28an old firm game
00:18:29to absolutely annoy
00:18:30the life out of you
00:18:31or a manager trying to build,
00:18:33but if he gets to a situation
00:18:34where he would lose
00:18:35that first game
00:18:36and be facing
00:18:37such a huge gap,
00:18:39it becomes,
00:18:40it just becomes mental
00:18:42because you know
00:18:42the way the fans
00:18:43go with these things.
00:18:44I think they've got to
00:18:45stick to the manager,
00:18:45Peter.
00:18:46They've invested heavily
00:18:47in him.
00:18:47They've invested heavily
00:18:48in the squad.
00:18:49I think they're going
00:18:49to have to stick with him.
00:18:50It wouldn't surprise me
00:18:51if Rangers beat Celtic
00:18:52to Ibrox.
00:18:52Rangers raise their games
00:18:54against the bigger teams.
00:18:55Celtic will come
00:18:56and attack Rangers
00:18:57at Ibrox.
00:18:58It suits them.
00:18:58They've had a good,
00:18:59decent record last season
00:19:00against Celtic.
00:19:00So I wouldn't put it
00:19:02past them
00:19:02if they can win that game
00:19:03and get back down
00:19:04to four points
00:19:05and everything
00:19:05in the Gardens Rosier
00:19:06gave me a game in hand.
00:19:07So it's just that
00:19:08these results
00:19:09that the Rangers supporters
00:19:10it's just like
00:19:12rinse and repeat
00:19:12from the last couple
00:19:13of seasons
00:19:13have a great result
00:19:14in Europe.
00:19:15Beat Celtic,
00:19:16draw it to St Myrne,
00:19:17draw it to Indie,
00:19:18beat off him with him.
00:19:19It's just these same results,
00:19:20Peter.
00:19:20They've no consistency.
00:19:22They can't handle that
00:19:23intensity and that pressure
00:19:24every week to win.
00:19:25And Celtic have got
00:19:25winners in their dressing room,
00:19:26winners in their team
00:19:27that know how to win
00:19:28these games.
00:19:29We were going to speak
00:19:30about the game yesterday,
00:19:31Cruz the game at Aberdeen.
00:19:33Rangers would go up there
00:19:34and probably drop points
00:19:35and I think that's the
00:19:35difference between the two teams.
00:19:37The last thing you want,
00:19:38and I can't believe
00:19:39I'm saying this, Ruffey,
00:19:40but I think there's a bookmaker
00:19:41paid out in Celtic
00:19:42already winning the league.
00:19:43I mean,
00:19:43that's how ridiculous
00:19:45this whole thing's become.
00:19:46It is.
00:19:47We've had this every year,
00:19:51you know,
00:19:51we say,
00:19:51oh,
00:19:51look at how far ahead
00:19:53they are
00:19:53and then all of a sudden
00:19:54Rangers come up against Celtic,
00:19:56particularly last year,
00:19:57and held their own
00:19:58and numerous occasions
00:19:59actually beat Celtic.
00:20:01So,
00:20:02he has to get,
00:20:02as Tam said,
00:20:03the other games.
00:20:04He has to start winning
00:20:05the A games,
00:20:06but certainly,
00:20:06I don't think he can afford
00:20:08to lose that first game.
00:20:09I don't see them
00:20:10potentially getting past Bruges.
00:20:13I just don't consider,
00:20:15I mean,
00:20:16I look at the Victoria Pools
00:20:17and I think that's fine,
00:20:19but based on the Bruges,
00:20:21even if they're,
00:20:22I mean,
00:20:23that Bruges side last year
00:20:24passed Celtic off the park
00:20:26at times.
00:20:26It was wonderful to watch
00:20:28the way they were playing
00:20:29in Europe.
00:20:30I don't see Rangers getting...
00:20:31Champions League team.
00:20:32Yes,
00:20:33absolutely.
00:20:33I don't see them getting past them.
00:20:35Yeah,
00:20:35I think it's raised the bar.
00:20:37I think it will raise the bar
00:20:38significantly,
00:20:39I think it would be
00:20:40a very tough test
00:20:43for Rangers to come through.
00:20:45I think just now,
00:20:45if you're looking at the way
00:20:46they're playing,
00:20:47yeah,
00:20:48I don't think you would
00:20:49fancy their chances too much.
00:20:51But you see the way
00:20:51this goes, Tam?
00:20:52I mean,
00:20:52as we're looking at it,
00:20:53you're trying to keep a balance
00:20:54and say to yourself,
00:20:55okay,
00:20:56fans can be extreme
00:20:57in their opinion,
00:20:58but the Rangers fans
00:20:59have put their money
00:21:00where their mouth is
00:21:02and they've backed them
00:21:02continually.
00:21:04Everybody knows
00:21:04it's rinse and repeat,
00:21:06but right now,
00:21:07as Russell Martin tries
00:21:08to just steady
00:21:09it and say,
00:21:09right,
00:21:10can I get this player in?
00:21:11Can I get that player in?
00:21:12Can I keep this going?
00:21:14Suddenly,
00:21:14he looks at that
00:21:15horizon
00:21:16and he thinks,
00:21:17well,
00:21:18realistically,
00:21:19Patrick Stewart
00:21:20and the rest of the board
00:21:21are saying,
00:21:21can you,
00:21:22can you just get
00:21:24group stage
00:21:25Champions League?
00:21:26That gives us
00:21:27a huge shot in the arm
00:21:28and if they can't get that,
00:21:30can you keep
00:21:31this title race
00:21:32without people
00:21:34clamouring over seats
00:21:35and going
00:21:36absolutely mental?
00:21:37Yeah,
00:21:37they've got to keep it close,
00:21:38Peter,
00:21:38with Celtic domestically.
00:21:39They can't afford
00:21:40to go 10,
00:21:4112 points
00:21:41behind the early doors
00:21:42because then the pressure,
00:21:43as Alisson said,
00:21:44will be intolerable on them,
00:21:45but I think
00:21:47Brood will be favourites
00:21:47but I just would never
00:21:49bet against Rangers
00:21:49in Europe.
00:21:50I just think
00:21:50they're a totally
00:21:50different team.
00:21:52They've guaranteed
00:21:53Europa League group stages
00:21:54so the pressure's
00:21:55off a little bit
00:21:55and when Rangers
00:21:56play like that,
00:21:57I think they're
00:21:58a different side
00:21:58so yeah,
00:21:59Brood will be favourites
00:22:00and I think a lot of people
00:22:01would be surprised
00:22:02if Rangers beat them
00:22:03but I don't think
00:22:04it's impossible.
00:22:06I just think
00:22:06they've got to try
00:22:07and stay close to Celtic
00:22:08Peter as it stands
00:22:09and they've got to
00:22:10give Russell Martin time.
00:22:11I don't think
00:22:11Russell Martin's a problem,
00:22:12I don't think
00:22:13Clement was a problem,
00:22:14it's the mentality
00:22:14of the Rangers players
00:22:15and until he gets
00:22:17a lot of those guys out
00:22:18who are still there,
00:22:20he's going to have
00:22:20the same problems
00:22:21every week,
00:22:21going to Dundee,
00:22:22playing Dundee,
00:22:23Motherwell, St. Murn.
00:22:24They've not got the mentality
00:22:25of going to win
00:22:26these games every week
00:22:26Peter and they haven't
00:22:27for two or three years.
00:22:28Okay,
00:22:29give us your thoughts
00:22:30on that.
00:22:30Rangers dropping points
00:22:32again this time
00:22:33at home to Dundee.
00:22:35What do you make
00:22:35of it all?
00:22:36Is Russell Martin
00:22:37going to get that time?
00:22:38Do you get that time
00:22:39especially this early
00:22:40in the season
00:22:41to try and build
00:22:42that team
00:22:43if you do fall
00:22:44so many points
00:22:45behind a Celtic side
00:22:46that Kauai simply
00:22:48went up to Potaudry
00:22:49and put that whole
00:22:50Scottish Cup episode
00:22:51behind them roughly
00:22:52and comfortably won
00:22:542-0 against Aberdeen.
00:22:55Yeah,
00:22:56I think the first
00:22:5610-15 minutes
00:22:57was a wee bit
00:22:58hairy for Celtic.
00:23:00I think Aberdeen
00:23:01as you would expect
00:23:02the home team
00:23:03coming out
00:23:03right at the start
00:23:04and giving it a go
00:23:05but after the game
00:23:06settled a wee bit
00:23:07Celtic again
00:23:08got control of the ball
00:23:09possession of the ball
00:23:11the big players
00:23:12you know
00:23:13started coming into
00:23:14the game
00:23:14and the two goals
00:23:15were just a joy
00:23:16to watch.
00:23:17Yeah,
00:23:18I mean you look at
00:23:19Negrin and he
00:23:20I mean if you're
00:23:21looking for somebody
00:23:21to come in
00:23:22and settle quickly
00:23:25you know
00:23:25his contribution
00:23:26you were at the game
00:23:27Ali
00:23:27does he look at
00:23:29one of those
00:23:30bargain buys?
00:23:31Yeah,
00:23:31I thought he looked
00:23:32very at ease
00:23:33I thought
00:23:33I think he's
00:23:35walked into
00:23:36a very settled
00:23:37Celtic start in 11
00:23:38very notable
00:23:39I think that
00:23:40you know
00:23:41he dispatched
00:23:41Arnie Engels
00:23:42onto the bench
00:23:43but I thought
00:23:44he looked very
00:23:44comfortable
00:23:45and obviously
00:23:46made a significant
00:23:47contribution
00:23:48scored
00:23:48the first goal
00:23:49set up the second goal
00:23:51but I thought
00:23:52he was good
00:23:53I thought
00:23:53he looked fairly
00:23:54impressive
00:23:55across the course
00:23:56of the 90 minutes
00:23:57and you know
00:23:58I think Celtic
00:23:59are still crying out
00:24:00for areas
00:24:01to be strengthened
00:24:02before the closure
00:24:04of the window
00:24:05but certainly
00:24:06the impression
00:24:07that you've got
00:24:07just now
00:24:08is that domestically
00:24:09they have enough.
00:24:11What a goal it was
00:24:12Tam from
00:24:14Rio Hattati
00:24:15as well
00:24:15I mean
00:24:16it just looked
00:24:16as if
00:24:16he's just
00:24:17motoring along
00:24:19nicely
00:24:19I wonder about
00:24:20Dyson Maeda
00:24:21on the left hand side
00:24:22I still think
00:24:23he'd be better
00:24:23in the centre
00:24:24Yeah,
00:24:25it's a bit of a
00:24:26conundrum
00:24:26for Brendan Rodgers
00:24:27at the minute
00:24:27you know
00:24:28he obviously
00:24:28wants to play
00:24:29he's number 9
00:24:30he's Adam Eder
00:24:31he's paid a lot
00:24:31of money for him
00:24:32I felt a little bit
00:24:34sorry for Adam Eder
00:24:34yesterday
00:24:35I thought there was
00:24:35times where Celtic
00:24:36could have put
00:24:36the ball in the box
00:24:37particularly Alistair Johnson
00:24:38on the right hand side
00:24:38checked back out
00:24:40and cut across the box
00:24:41and tracked him
00:24:41out the other side
00:24:42and I can set
00:24:43an X strike on myself
00:24:44you're wanting those
00:24:45balls in the box
00:24:45especially a big guy
00:24:46like that
00:24:46that's his bread and butter
00:24:476 foot 4
00:24:496 foot 5
00:24:50get crosses in the box
00:24:51for him
00:24:51they didn't do that
00:24:51they didn't really
00:24:52have any opportunities
00:24:53to score
00:24:54Dyson Maeda
00:24:55you're right
00:24:55I thought he had
00:24:56a poor game
00:24:56he could have went
00:24:57through and scored
00:24:58he fell over the ball
00:24:59I think that
00:24:59summed up his day
00:25:00he doesn't look
00:25:02the same player
00:25:03I don't know if it's
00:25:04because he's playing
00:25:05back in the wide area
00:25:05and he's probably
00:25:06really enjoyed
00:25:07scoring goals
00:25:08and playing through the middle
00:25:09so
00:25:09it's one of the ones
00:25:11that he dropped
00:25:11Ida and play Maeda
00:25:12through the middle
00:25:13who do you play wide
00:25:14so until Celtic
00:25:16get more options
00:25:16up there
00:25:17I think he's going
00:25:17to stick with this
00:25:18front three
00:25:19and I thought
00:25:20Negrin was excellent
00:25:21I thought he looks
00:25:22a really clever player
00:25:23I think Celtic
00:25:241.5 million
00:25:25I think he's Matt O'Reilly
00:25:27type of bargain
00:25:28but just
00:25:29clever player
00:25:29he actually set up
00:25:31the first goal
00:25:32on the right hand side
00:25:34of the park
00:25:34he was linking up
00:25:35and as the ball
00:25:37got transferred
00:25:37to the other side
00:25:38of the park
00:25:39he just gradually
00:25:40moved into the box
00:25:41and took up that position
00:25:42we get a chance
00:25:44to see it again
00:25:44Yeah
00:25:45OK
00:25:45they get a comfortable
00:25:462-0 win
00:25:47it's a strange situation
00:25:48which Ali
00:25:48I'm going to get to you on
00:25:49this is what
00:25:50Brendan Rodgers
00:25:51had to say
00:25:52after the game
00:25:52and he threw it
00:25:53in at a point
00:25:53where I don't think
00:25:54anybody really
00:25:55had pushed him
00:25:57on this point
00:25:58he says
00:25:58I think there are
00:25:59a number of people
00:26:00that really don't
00:26:01like me being at Celtic
00:26:02but with me
00:26:03and looking at the team
00:26:05I'm really happy
00:26:05to see how the players
00:26:06are
00:26:07the current players
00:26:08that we have
00:26:08two clean sheets
00:26:10control
00:26:11a difficult game
00:26:12showed resilience
00:26:13last week
00:26:14to break through
00:26:14and we're ticking along
00:26:16what will make
00:26:18the football
00:26:18a bit more creative
00:26:19is the level of player
00:26:20we hope we can do that
00:26:22and then
00:26:22we'll be hopefully
00:26:23by the end of the month
00:26:25in a really good place
00:26:26I mean I'm absolutely
00:26:28I'm gobsmacked at that
00:26:30because quite simply
00:26:31I don't think
00:26:33the Celtic managers
00:26:34give two hoots
00:26:36who likes him
00:26:37and who doesn't like him
00:26:38and who likes him
00:26:39being at Celtic or not
00:26:40you know
00:26:41the biggest problem
00:26:42I have sometimes
00:26:43with Celtic managers
00:26:45when they come out
00:26:45and try and have a dig at people
00:26:47is that the PR people
00:26:49only put negative things
00:26:50in front of their desk
00:26:52they only highlight
00:26:53the negatives
00:26:53they very rarely
00:26:54will say
00:26:55you know
00:26:55here's a good piece
00:26:56here's a positive piece
00:26:58the reason I know that
00:26:59is because Martin
00:26:59Neil told me
00:27:00that's exactly what he got
00:27:01you got
00:27:02here's this
00:27:03they've said this about you
00:27:04they've said that
00:27:04does a Celtic manager
00:27:06really bother
00:27:06because you have to
00:27:08stay so focused
00:27:08because there's so much
00:27:09noise coming at you
00:27:10you'd be off your head
00:27:11to listen to it
00:27:12Brendan doesn't get fed
00:27:14the people
00:27:15across the whole of the media
00:27:17written broadcast
00:27:18podcasts
00:27:19who
00:27:20have been raving about
00:27:21the way his team played
00:27:23against Bayern Munich
00:27:25and when he achieved
00:27:26the remit of last year
00:27:28they may well have faded
00:27:29towards the end
00:27:30at the Scottish Cup
00:27:31which might have been
00:27:32a disappointment
00:27:32to Celtic fans
00:27:33but people are looking at him
00:27:36and saying
00:27:36he is a good coach
00:27:37you know
00:27:38he has faults
00:27:40like everybody
00:27:40but he is a good coach
00:27:41and people have said that
00:27:43about him
00:27:43I don't know what he's
00:27:44ranting on about
00:27:44he should just
00:27:45forget about it
00:27:47to be fair
00:27:48I didn't think
00:27:49it was a rant
00:27:49it was just
00:27:51it was a throwaway
00:27:52remark
00:27:53which stood out
00:27:54just because
00:27:55it seemed a bit
00:27:56odd
00:27:56with what he was
00:27:57talking about
00:27:58I think
00:28:00on a personal level
00:28:01I think
00:28:02what he was referencing
00:28:03was his first season
00:28:05when he had returned
00:28:06to Celtic
00:28:07and at points
00:28:09there were maybe
00:28:09accusations
00:28:10that the football
00:28:11was a bit flat
00:28:12that it wasn't
00:28:13as exciting
00:28:14as what people
00:28:15wanted to see
00:28:15I think that is
00:28:17what he was getting at
00:28:18it didn't feel
00:28:19particularly clear
00:28:20just what exactly
00:28:22the criticism was
00:28:24or which direction
00:28:25it was coming from
00:28:26just that at points
00:28:28there had been
00:28:29people who didn't like
00:28:30the way that the team
00:28:32were playing
00:28:32but as I say
00:28:33it was a very
00:28:33throwaway remark
00:28:34and a conversation
00:28:35largely about
00:28:37what might happen
00:28:38before the closure
00:28:39of the window
00:28:40it just seemed to come
00:28:41out of nothing
00:28:42and come from
00:28:44Brendan Rodgers himself
00:28:45who had offered it
00:28:46I think the point
00:28:47the greater point
00:28:49was simply that
00:28:50I'm quite pleased
00:28:51with the direction
00:28:52that this team
00:28:53is going in
00:28:53I'm quite satisfied
00:28:55with the players
00:28:55I've got here
00:28:56however
00:28:57I need players
00:28:58to come in
00:28:59and enhance the quality
00:29:00that you've already seen
00:29:02the line about
00:29:03there's maybe people
00:29:03that still don't like me
00:29:05people that don't like me
00:29:06being at Celtic
00:29:07I think
00:29:08goes back
00:29:09historically
00:29:09to that first season
00:29:10and
00:29:11and a perceived
00:29:12level of criticism
00:29:13because even then
00:29:14I think it would be
00:29:16fairly low level
00:29:17at times
00:29:18I mean they've
00:29:19cantered the league
00:29:20and they've played
00:29:20good football
00:29:21and they've been better
00:29:22than everybody else
00:29:23nobody can lay a glove
00:29:24on them
00:29:24Tam
00:29:25albeit in a one-off game
00:29:27Aberdeen got it right
00:29:29in the Scottish Cup final
00:29:30and deserved tremendous
00:29:31credit for getting it right
00:29:32but he's just been
00:29:35so dominant
00:29:35and I think
00:29:36when we all looked
00:29:38and we've discussed
00:29:38ad nauseum
00:29:39what the remit is
00:29:41for Celtic
00:29:41for Brendan Rodgers
00:29:42second time around
00:29:43it was quite simply
00:29:45see if you can do
00:29:47something in Europe
00:29:47see if you can enhance
00:29:48this team in Europe
00:29:49and I think he has
00:29:51the only thing
00:29:52that's hanging over him
00:29:53right now
00:29:54is everybody's waiting
00:29:55and saying
00:29:56those three players
00:29:57that you get
00:29:58before you get them
00:29:59let's see
00:30:00how much Celtic
00:30:01spend on it
00:30:02and are they the calibre
00:30:04that tells you
00:30:05that you're going to
00:30:05commit to Celtic
00:30:06on a new deal
00:30:07Yeah I think
00:30:08all we reveal
00:30:09Peter on the 1st of September
00:30:10I think if Celtic
00:30:11go out and spend
00:30:1210-15 million
00:30:13on three players
00:30:14then you might see
00:30:15a different
00:30:15Brendan Rodgers
00:30:16in interviews
00:30:16you might see
00:30:17him his tie
00:30:17and his belt back on
00:30:19which is a strange one
00:30:21as well
00:30:21the weekend
00:30:22and then somebody's comments
00:30:24somebody said
00:30:25he's not wearing a tie
00:30:26it's a sign
00:30:27and I thought
00:30:28what sign
00:30:29it's just roasting
00:30:30it's wee things like that
00:30:31and then obviously
00:30:32his comments
00:30:32about people not liking him
00:30:33so there's something
00:30:34bugging him anyway
00:30:35and I think you'll find out
00:30:36when the 1st of September
00:30:38if he gets the three players in
00:30:39or two or three players
00:30:40that he's needing
00:30:40and wants
00:30:41and Celtic spend money
00:30:42then I think you'll see
00:30:42a much more chirpy
00:30:43I would have to say
00:30:45I would have to say
00:30:45yesterday I found him
00:30:46very relaxed
00:30:47like the context
00:30:49of that
00:30:49that line
00:30:51was just so
00:30:52odd
00:30:53because
00:30:54he didn't seem
00:30:55to come in
00:30:56irked at anything
00:30:58I thought
00:30:58he was
00:30:59fairly
00:30:59comfortable
00:31:01coming in
00:31:02to chat
00:31:02about the game
00:31:03where his team are
00:31:04is fairly comfortable
00:31:06you know
00:31:06they've come through
00:31:07two games
00:31:08they've got a
00:31:09perfect start
00:31:10in the league
00:31:11they've managed
00:31:13to capitalise
00:31:14where Rangers
00:31:15have slipped up
00:31:15they've banked
00:31:16the maximum points
00:31:17I thought he came across
00:31:18as very relaxed
00:31:19I just
00:31:19found it
00:31:20I just found
00:31:21it jarred
00:31:23immediately
00:31:23because it just
00:31:24felt
00:31:25out of kilter
00:31:26with the rest
00:31:27of the kind of
00:31:27conversations
00:31:27what he's done
00:31:28is he's thrown
00:31:29out a line
00:31:29that's obviously
00:31:30we're all now
00:31:31guessing
00:31:32who is it
00:31:33you know
00:31:34is it some of the
00:31:35supporters
00:31:35is it somebody
00:31:36on the board
00:31:36is it the media
00:31:38is it
00:31:38he's thrown
00:31:39something out there
00:31:40that he
00:31:41himself knows
00:31:42who's he's talking
00:31:43about
00:31:43we're all just
00:31:46I don't think
00:31:47I think it goes
00:31:47back to that
00:31:48first season
00:31:49back
00:31:50first season back
00:31:51yeah first season
00:31:52back
00:31:52when there was maybe
00:31:53obviously somebody's
00:31:54brought it up then
00:31:55he's not going to
00:31:56bring it up after
00:31:57a year
00:31:57it felt reminiscent
00:31:58to me like
00:31:59last year
00:32:00I think it was
00:32:01last season
00:32:01when Celtic
00:32:02beat
00:32:02St Johnson
00:32:03very comfortably
00:32:04at McDermott Park
00:32:05and he was asked
00:32:06about it
00:32:06and he said
00:32:07well not bad
00:32:07for a team
00:32:08that are boring
00:32:09not bad
00:32:10for a team
00:32:10that don't play
00:32:11particularly fluent
00:32:12kind of football
00:32:13and that was
00:32:14a different
00:32:14atmosphere
00:32:15at that
00:32:16press conference
00:32:18it was much
00:32:18spikier
00:32:18who was he directing
00:32:19that at
00:32:19it was just a
00:32:20simple question
00:32:21who was he directing
00:32:22that
00:32:23people were saying
00:32:24they're boring
00:32:24people had been
00:32:25criticised
00:32:26again
00:32:27I think
00:32:28you know
00:32:30there was a
00:32:30column you wrote
00:32:31Alison
00:32:31by the way
00:32:32they're coasting
00:32:33they're coasting
00:32:34he's two games in
00:32:35and he's got the
00:32:36potential to be
00:32:37to be ten points
00:32:38maybe even more
00:32:39by the time you get
00:32:40to the 31st of August
00:32:42I mean it's ridiculous
00:32:42the other thing
00:32:43about it as well
00:32:44and I like reading
00:32:45out some of the
00:32:45messages
00:32:45because we
00:32:46we like
00:32:47Tam as you well
00:32:48know
00:32:48just you and I
00:32:49not obviously
00:32:50Ruffy and Alison
00:32:50but we like people
00:32:52absolutely leathering
00:32:54us
00:32:54from time to time
00:32:56well we like to
00:32:56read them out
00:32:57because it just
00:32:57shows that we
00:32:58don't mind
00:32:59Gary Simpson
00:33:01says shut up
00:33:02Peter
00:33:02it's not him
00:33:03it's our board
00:33:04and I think
00:33:06a lot of people
00:33:07are mentioning that
00:33:08and that I think
00:33:09is the only
00:33:10thing
00:33:10it's the only
00:33:12overriding story
00:33:13that's
00:33:13you know
00:33:14obviously we can't
00:33:16go to the press
00:33:16conference and ask
00:33:17this but I'm
00:33:18trying to put it
00:33:19out as regular
00:33:19as possible
00:33:20so a decent
00:33:21journalist will
00:33:22go in there
00:33:22and say
00:33:23well Brendan
00:33:24it's the 1st
00:33:25of September
00:33:25are the three
00:33:27players that
00:33:28you've signed
00:33:28the calibre
00:33:30that you want
00:33:31and the calibre
00:33:32that convinces you
00:33:33that you have
00:33:34got a chance
00:33:34to stay here
00:33:35longer and
00:33:36commit yourself
00:33:36that's the
00:33:38question
00:33:38that's the
00:33:39question that
00:33:39will be asked
00:33:40without a doubt
00:33:40it's the question
00:33:41that's going to
00:33:41be asked
00:33:42and he's just
00:33:43got to get
00:33:43those players
00:33:44Ruffy
00:33:44to see
00:33:45and obviously
00:33:46I think a lot
00:33:47of players
00:33:47are looking
00:33:48and saying
00:33:48to themselves
00:33:49I think they
00:33:49will turn on
00:33:50I think they'll
00:33:51just turn their
00:33:51attention from
00:33:52Brendan and start
00:33:53looking at the
00:33:53board and saying
00:33:54wait a minute
00:33:55you've got about
00:33:55100 million in the
00:33:56bank and if
00:33:57Brendan
00:33:58you know
00:33:59suddenly is facing
00:34:00a Champions League
00:34:01playoff match
00:34:03where they should
00:34:04slip up
00:34:05and they don't
00:34:06get Champions League
00:34:07all hell would
00:34:08let loose
00:34:08I think they will
00:34:09get into the
00:34:10group stages
00:34:11but I think
00:34:12the only
00:34:13interesting part
00:34:14of it is
00:34:14have you got
00:34:15the calibre of
00:34:16player you wanted
00:34:17because
00:34:17right now
00:34:18did anybody
00:34:20expect
00:34:20did you suggest
00:34:21Rangers would win
00:34:22the league this year
00:34:22no
00:34:23did you think
00:34:24they were going
00:34:24to be
00:34:25I didn't
00:34:26no but we all
00:34:28hoped they'd
00:34:28make a fist
00:34:29of it
00:34:30it wouldn't be
00:34:31a 12 or a
00:34:3215 point gap
00:34:33they would
00:34:34not just
00:34:35beat
00:34:35I've said that
00:34:37at the beginning
00:34:37of the season
00:34:38as well
00:34:38Hibs and
00:34:39Hearts looks
00:34:40as if
00:34:40they're going
00:34:41to be better
00:34:41I have my
00:34:42doubts of
00:34:43Aberdeen
00:34:43but I think
00:34:45they too
00:34:45will make it
00:34:46a bit of
00:34:47a fist
00:34:47of it
00:34:47Do you think
00:34:48the board
00:34:48are reluctant
00:34:49to give
00:34:49Brendan
00:34:50Rodgers
00:34:50big money
00:34:52after his
00:34:52last three
00:34:52big money
00:34:53signings?
00:34:53Well here's
00:34:54a point I
00:34:54was going
00:34:54to make
00:34:55to you
00:34:55I'm glad
00:34:55you mentioned
00:34:56that because
00:34:56there was
00:34:56a great
00:34:57line today
00:34:58from a stat
00:34:59in one of
00:34:59the tabloid
00:35:00papers
00:35:01and he said
00:35:02Celtic have
00:35:03brought in
00:35:0327 players
00:35:05since Brendan
00:35:07Rodgers returned
00:35:07to the club
00:35:08in 2023
00:35:09but after
00:35:10five transfer
00:35:12windows
00:35:12only four
00:35:13of those
00:35:14recruits
00:35:14started at
00:35:15Petaudry
00:35:16That's a
00:35:18really interesting
00:35:18stat
00:35:20Isn't it?
00:35:21And he said
00:35:22he's got last
00:35:23say on every
00:35:23one of the
00:35:24players
00:35:24Quote
00:35:25Brendan
00:35:26They have
00:35:27moved on
00:35:28a few
00:35:28Peter
00:35:28They have
00:35:29moved on
00:35:30a few
00:35:30that he's
00:35:31signed
00:35:31I know
00:35:31but you
00:35:32need to
00:35:32look and
00:35:32say to
00:35:33yourself
00:35:33he's got
00:35:34Ida
00:35:35that he
00:35:35bought for
00:35:36nine million
00:35:36These two
00:35:38are hanging
00:35:38on his
00:35:38They're
00:35:41hanging on
00:35:41the back
00:35:42That's
00:35:42Ida
00:35:43trusty
00:35:43and I'm
00:35:43going to
00:35:44throw in
00:35:44Engels
00:35:44That's three
00:35:45He'll
00:35:47He'll hit you
00:35:47with
00:35:48look what I
00:35:48brought in
00:35:49Look at
00:35:50the players
00:35:50that I
00:35:50bought in
00:35:51and sold
00:35:51on
00:35:52But they
00:35:53are hanging
00:35:53on him
00:35:54He's not
00:35:54going to
00:35:55get away
00:35:55from it
00:35:55It's there
00:35:56in black
00:35:57and white
00:35:57unless he
00:35:59sorts that
00:36:00out
00:36:00I think we
00:36:01all agree
00:36:02that they
00:36:02are decent
00:36:02players
00:36:03and they'll
00:36:05get money
00:36:05back for
00:36:05them
00:36:06I just
00:36:06wonder if
00:36:07it's more
00:36:07a reluctance
00:36:09because of
00:36:10the contract
00:36:11issue
00:36:11Just where
00:36:12they are
00:36:13The uncertainty
00:36:14that hangs
00:36:15now
00:36:16over what
00:36:17the next
00:36:1760 million
00:36:18pound roll
00:36:18of the dice
00:36:19on whether
00:36:19the manager
00:36:20is here
00:36:20next year
00:36:20Ali
00:36:21Wow
00:36:21I just
00:36:23wonder
00:36:23I don't
00:36:23think there's
00:36:24any doubts
00:36:25that it'll
00:36:25beat
00:36:26either of
00:36:27those teams
00:36:27with the squad
00:36:28they've got
00:36:28them now
00:36:29Okay
00:36:29Interesting
00:36:30By the way
00:36:31you mentioned
00:36:32something and
00:36:32you thought
00:36:32you were just
00:36:32going to
00:36:33throw it away
00:36:33and Kenny
00:36:34and LA
00:36:34wouldn't pick
00:36:35up on that
00:36:36by the way
00:36:36Ali
00:36:37I'm too
00:36:39long in the
00:36:40tooth in this
00:36:40game to
00:36:41miss a
00:36:41throwaway
00:36:42like that
00:36:42Aberdeen
00:36:44Jimmy
00:36:45Tallinn
00:36:45obviously is
00:36:46looking at
00:36:47some of his
00:36:47signings and
00:36:48he reckons
00:36:48here's that
00:36:49classic
00:36:49catchphrase
00:36:50from managers
00:36:51needs a
00:36:52little bit
00:36:52of time
00:36:53Everybody wants
00:36:53everything
00:36:54tomorrow
00:36:54that's what
00:36:55it is
00:36:55and they're
00:36:56coming from
00:36:56a different
00:36:57league
00:36:57and they're
00:36:57arriving here
00:36:58and we
00:36:59also have to
00:37:00give players
00:37:01some time
00:37:01sometimes
00:37:02we know
00:37:02what we assign
00:37:03some players
00:37:04we know
00:37:04what they can
00:37:04do
00:37:05and they
00:37:07need to keep
00:37:07pushing and
00:37:08get used to
00:37:09the league
00:37:09and adapt to
00:37:10new teammates
00:37:10and I think
00:37:11we can see
00:37:12some skills
00:37:14they have
00:37:14but it's not
00:37:15the full game
00:37:16OK
00:37:18Yenge
00:37:19you're not
00:37:19having him
00:37:19are you?
00:37:20Nah he's been
00:37:21poor Peter
00:37:21the first two
00:37:22games
00:37:22I don't see
00:37:24it at all
00:37:25I don't see
00:37:26who scouted
00:37:27him
00:37:27he looks clumsy
00:37:28in the ball
00:37:28I think
00:37:30he summed
00:37:30them up
00:37:30I think
00:37:30Kesskin
00:37:31hit a shot
00:37:32and he blocked
00:37:32it
00:37:32one of Aberdeen's
00:37:34chances in the
00:37:34second half
00:37:35I just think
00:37:36the Aberdeen fans
00:37:37have just made
00:37:37their mind up
00:37:38already
00:37:38it's going to
00:37:38be a long
00:37:38way back
00:37:39for him
00:37:39after two
00:37:41games
00:37:41after two
00:37:41games
00:37:42a lot of
00:37:42Aberdeen fans
00:37:43have made
00:37:43their mind up
00:37:43on him
00:37:44I liked
00:37:44Milanovic
00:37:45I don't know
00:37:46about you
00:37:46I think he's
00:37:46got a good
00:37:46left peg
00:37:47on him
00:37:47I think
00:37:47he will
00:37:48come on
00:37:48was it
00:37:49Ayush
00:37:50the boy
00:37:50fed
00:37:50he was good
00:37:51the only
00:37:53thing I would
00:37:53agree with him
00:37:54is obviously
00:37:54these players
00:37:55are coming
00:37:55from all
00:37:56different leagues
00:37:56it might
00:37:57take a while
00:37:58the language
00:37:59might be a
00:38:00problem
00:38:00I don't know
00:38:01but he needs
00:38:01to get it
00:38:02sorted out
00:38:02it just baffles
00:38:04me
00:38:04that modern
00:38:07foreign day
00:38:07players get a
00:38:08chance to settle
00:38:09in whether it's
00:38:09a year
00:38:10if it were
00:38:10being a
00:38:11played in
00:38:12our league
00:38:13and is a
00:38:13good player

00:38:14somebody who's
00:38:15top of the
00:38:16notch at
00:38:16hearts and
00:38:17he comes to
00:38:17the Rangers
00:38:18or Celtic
00:38:18we would
00:38:18expect him
00:38:19to just
00:38:19hit the
00:38:20goal and
00:38:20run
00:38:20just keep

00:38:24foreign players

00:38:25get away with
00:38:26murder

00:38:26time to

00:38:29know about

00:39:33time in the
00:39:33City of

00:39:35absolutely
00:39:36fantastic

00:39:38rave about it
00:39:39enough and I'll

00:40:12more signings
00:40:12look the
00:40:13business
00:40:13yeah I thought
00:40:14you would say
00:40:15that
00:40:15yeah I thought
00:40:17they
00:40:18obviously I've seen
00:40:19the highlights
00:40:19of the game
00:40:19Peter I thought
00:40:20Dundee United
00:40:20was a better
00:40:21team in the
00:40:21first half
00:40:21but
00:40:22we're going
00:40:23to go into
00:40:24the Hibs
00:40:24game as well
00:40:24I think
00:40:25when teams
00:40:25are travelling
00:40:26back from
00:40:26Europe
00:40:26they die
00:40:27a death
00:40:28in the second
00:40:28half
00:40:28I watched
00:40:29the Hibs
00:40:29game
00:40:292-0 up
00:40:30cruising
00:40:31died a death
00:40:31Dundee United
00:40:312-1 up
00:40:32at half time
00:40:32died a death
00:40:33in the second
00:40:34half
00:40:34so yeah
00:40:35I think
00:40:36the hearts
00:40:36obviously nicked
00:40:38it at the end
00:40:38Dundee United
00:40:39look much
00:40:40improved this
00:40:40season as well
00:40:41so I think
00:40:42if you're a
00:40:43supporter of
00:40:43either club
00:40:44you're looking
00:40:44forward to a
00:40:45really good
00:40:45season
00:40:45because I
00:40:46thought Dundee
00:40:46played a lot
00:40:47of good
00:40:47stuff
00:40:47in the first
00:40:49half
00:40:49great goal
00:40:49two goals
00:40:50for Jalczyk
00:40:50second one
00:40:51goalkeeper
00:40:52probably should
00:40:53have saved it
00:40:54but hearts
00:40:55you're right
00:40:55I think hearts
00:40:56have got a
00:40:57steal about them
00:40:57they've got a
00:40:58signed guys like
00:40:59Finlay
00:41:00and he's signed
00:41:00Shanklin
00:41:01they've got a
00:41:02real good core
00:41:02about them
00:41:03and they
00:41:03always go to the
00:41:04death
00:41:04and to nick it
00:41:05at the end
00:41:06it's a perfect
00:41:07start to the
00:41:07season for hearts
00:41:08yeah Jim Goodwin
00:41:09highlighted your
00:41:09injuries and
00:41:10obviously Derek
00:41:11McInnes said
00:41:12the club is
00:41:14just a good
00:41:14place to be
00:41:15at the moment
00:41:15we've come
00:41:16through the
00:41:17league cup
00:41:17games fine
00:41:18we've won
00:41:18these last
00:41:20couple of
00:41:20league games
00:41:21and it's
00:41:21great
00:41:21but I think
00:41:23for all the
00:41:23lads
00:41:23the Scottish
00:41:24lads
00:41:24my staff
00:41:25and the
00:41:25foreign lads
00:41:26who've come
00:41:26in
00:41:26when they see
00:41:27what they're
00:41:27actually playing
00:41:28for here
00:41:28this club's
00:41:31ready to
00:41:31take off
00:41:32they see the
00:41:33situation that
00:41:33we've got at
00:41:35the moment
00:41:35with the lack
00:41:36of players
00:41:36the lack of
00:41:37options
00:41:38to be able
00:41:38to freshen
00:41:39things up
00:41:39today we've
00:41:40got two
00:41:41natural wingers
00:41:42playing in
00:41:43the wing back
00:41:44areas
00:41:44Miller Thompson
00:41:45I thought he'd
00:41:45done great
00:41:46young lad
00:41:46just getting
00:41:47chucked into
00:41:47a game like
00:41:48that
00:41:48Owen Sturton
00:41:5019 year old
00:41:51striker
00:41:51it's his first
00:41:5290 minutes
00:41:53in the Scottish
00:41:53Premiership
00:41:54so lots of
00:41:55positives that
00:41:57we can take
00:41:58from it
00:41:58obviously
00:41:58but it's
00:42:00very hard
00:42:00to talk
00:42:01about positives
00:42:02when you've
00:42:02just lost
00:42:03the game
00:42:03in the manner
00:42:03that we have
00:42:04I thought
00:42:06two of them
00:42:07you need
00:42:07two teams
00:42:08to have
00:42:08that attitude
00:42:09to make
00:42:09it a great
00:42:10game
00:42:10I thought
00:42:10it was
00:42:11magnificent
00:42:11I mean
00:42:12if you're
00:42:12talking about
00:42:13foreign players
00:42:13who take
00:42:14a bit of time
00:42:15the boy
00:42:15Kamara in the
00:42:16middle of the
00:42:16park
00:42:17and Dolchek
00:42:17they looked
00:42:19great
00:42:19they were a joy
00:42:20to watch
00:42:20that's what I'm
00:42:20saying
00:42:21it seems to be
00:42:22it only takes
00:42:22time if they're
00:42:23not playing
00:42:23well
00:42:24but if they're
00:42:24playing well
00:42:25you never see
00:42:26that acquisition
00:42:26getting thrown
00:42:27at them
00:42:27so I thought
00:42:29the whole
00:42:29thing
00:42:30the atmosphere
00:42:31I think the
00:42:31fans made it
00:42:33exciting as well
00:42:33I have to commend
00:42:34all the clubs
00:42:35as well
00:42:36I think the
00:42:36pitches all look
00:42:37absolutely magnificent
00:42:38they all look like
00:42:39bowling greens
00:42:39to play on
00:42:41I would know
00:42:42because obviously
00:42:42I'm a bowler
00:42:43I thought the
00:42:49atmosphere was
00:42:50great
00:42:50and I keep
00:42:51going on about
00:42:51the flags and
00:42:52all that
00:42:52I think that
00:42:53just adds a wee
00:42:54bit
00:42:54well done to
00:42:55the other teams
00:42:55Claudio Braga
00:42:57looks a player as
00:42:58well
00:42:59they've got a
00:43:00song about him
00:43:00and I don't even
00:43:01think he's scored
00:43:01a goal yet
00:43:02I mean that's
00:43:03great Ali
00:43:03if you've got a
00:43:04song about you
00:43:05after like two
00:43:06minutes in the
00:43:07door
00:43:07I thought he
00:43:08looked good on
00:43:08Monday night too
00:43:09I think Hearts
00:43:10will be fun to
00:43:11watch this season
00:43:12I think
00:43:13fundamentally for
00:43:16any team
00:43:16getting off to
00:43:17a good start
00:43:17can be so
00:43:18important
00:43:18because it
00:43:19just sets an
00:43:20immediate tone
00:43:20for the campaign
00:43:21and I think
00:43:23Hearts look as
00:43:24though they're
00:43:24flying
00:43:25they look very
00:43:26much like a
00:43:26Derek McInnes
00:43:27team
00:43:27I think
00:43:28you can see
00:43:29a robustness
00:43:30about them
00:43:30physicality
00:43:31about them
00:43:32but they can
00:43:32play
00:43:32there's an
00:43:33energy about
00:43:34them
00:43:34an aggression
00:43:35about them
00:43:36and I think
00:43:37he's getting
00:43:37a return out
00:43:39of guys
00:43:39like Shankland
00:43:40I thought
00:43:40Shankland looked
00:43:41leaner
00:43:42fitter
00:43:42stronger
00:43:43settled
00:43:44after all
00:43:44the hullabaloo
00:43:46over the contract
00:43:47and what not
00:43:48I think he looked
00:43:48completely focused
00:43:50I think Hearts
00:43:51will be
00:43:51yeah I think
00:43:53they'll be up
00:43:53there this season
00:43:54Milne
00:43:54Kingsley comes on
00:43:55as a substitute
00:43:56as well
00:43:57strength and depth
00:43:57they've got
00:43:58Stuart Finlay
00:43:59I think he's a
00:43:59really good
00:44:00opinion
00:44:00James Olsen
00:44:00coming on
00:44:01absolutely
00:44:01and by the
00:44:03way
00:44:03they can
00:44:03they play
00:44:04lovely
00:44:04do you know
00:44:05who the
00:44:05linchpin is
00:44:05and he's
00:44:06given him a
00:44:06different role
00:44:07this season
00:44:07Devlin
00:44:08Devlin
00:44:09he is that
00:44:11number six
00:44:12number eight
00:44:12do you know
00:44:13what's great
00:44:13about him as
00:44:14well Tam
00:44:14he's nasty
00:44:16he works his
00:44:17socks off
00:44:18very complimentary
00:44:20about him
00:44:20you always see
00:44:22him as a bit
00:44:22of a dog
00:44:23a bit of a rat
00:44:23in there
00:44:24getting about
00:44:24people
00:44:25but I think
00:44:25he can play
00:44:25as well
00:44:26he's shown
00:44:27that so far
00:44:27this season
00:44:28he's got
00:44:28a different
00:44:30role
00:44:31with Eric
00:44:32McInnes
00:44:32but I think
00:44:33when you look
00:44:33at Hearts
00:44:34starting line
00:44:34up
00:44:34the guys
00:44:35coming on
00:44:36they've got
00:44:36a really
00:44:36strong squad
00:44:37maybe a
00:44:39goalkeeper
00:44:40he came in
00:44:40I think
00:44:41as well
00:44:41maybe the
00:44:41only one
00:44:42Craig Gordon
00:44:43has injured
00:44:44problems
00:44:44Xander Clark
00:44:45wasn't great
00:44:46at the weekend
00:44:46I think
00:44:47maybe a
00:44:47goalkeeper
00:44:48maybe to
00:44:48bring in
00:44:48but bar
00:44:49that
00:44:50I think
00:44:50they've
00:44:51looked very
00:44:51very strong
00:44:51I think
00:44:52you sense
00:44:52the optimism
00:44:53that's just
00:44:54radiating out
00:44:55of the squad
00:44:55there just
00:44:56seems to be
00:44:57the league
00:44:57Cup campaign
00:44:58as well
00:44:58and Tony
00:44:58Bloom
00:44:59everything is
00:45:00really positive
00:45:00there's a belief
00:45:01about them
00:45:01yeah Chris
00:45:02says we all
00:45:03need to take
00:45:03notice of
00:45:04Hearts
00:45:04they'll end
00:45:04up second
00:45:05I think
00:45:07that's Chris
00:45:07just throwing
00:45:08in a wee
00:45:08radio just
00:45:09for a noise
00:45:09up
00:45:10and also
00:45:11the jam
00:45:14tarts are
00:45:14rotten
00:45:14says Gary
00:45:15no chance
00:45:16I'd like to
00:45:17read out
00:45:17the
00:45:18kind of
00:45:18a balanced
00:45:19ones
00:45:19and then
00:45:19the ones
00:45:20that just
00:45:20don't like
00:45:21the jam
00:45:21tarts
00:45:22McLaughlin
00:45:22says
00:45:23Hearts
00:45:23will do
00:45:24what they've
00:45:24done
00:45:24three
00:45:25four times
00:45:26they pretended
00:45:27to challenge
00:45:27fall apart
00:45:28when it gets
00:45:29tough
00:45:29I'm not
00:45:30so sure
00:45:31this season
00:45:32anyway
00:45:33that's
00:45:34the jambos
00:45:35what about
00:45:36Hibbs
00:45:36and
00:45:37Camarnock
00:45:372-0 up
00:45:38Rocky
00:45:40Bashiri
00:45:40with the
00:45:41cigars out
00:45:42and he's
00:45:42changed
00:45:43I don't know
00:45:43if you've
00:45:43noticed by the
00:45:44way
00:45:44he's changed
00:45:45the name
00:45:46on the back
00:45:47of his shirt
00:45:47he's now
00:45:48just got
00:45:49Rocky
00:45:49so clearly
00:45:51he thinks
00:45:51there's going
00:45:52to be a
00:45:52huge
00:45:52there must
00:45:53be a deal
00:45:53done for the
00:45:54shirts
00:45:54and he thinks
00:45:54I'm going to
00:45:55tap into
00:45:56Rocky
00:45:561-2-3-4
00:45:57can't tap
00:45:59into Rocky
00:45:595 because
00:46:00it was
00:46:00terrible
00:46:00but he
00:46:02scores the
00:46:03first one
00:46:03Johan pops
00:46:04in with the
00:46:05second
00:46:05and then
00:46:06you reckon
00:46:06it was
00:46:06Europe
00:46:06that was
00:46:07because
00:46:07they ran
00:46:07out of
00:46:08gas
00:46:08I just
00:46:08think
00:46:08it was a
00:46:09bad
00:46:09slopping
00:46:09script
00:46:09right before
00:46:10half time
00:46:11poor pass
00:46:11for Rocky
00:46:12Bashiri in
00:46:12the middle
00:46:12of the park
00:46:13and then
00:46:14it's just
00:46:14dreadful
00:46:15defending
00:46:15out wide
00:46:15I think
00:46:15it's him
00:46:16and I
00:46:17don't know
00:46:18who it was
00:46:18it might
00:46:18be an
00:46:18Eli
00:46:18Johan
00:46:19I can't
00:46:20remember
00:46:20who it
00:46:20was
00:46:20but he
00:46:21came in
00:46:21between
00:46:21the two
00:46:21of them
00:46:22and then
00:46:22they get
00:46:22a wee
00:46:22lucky
00:46:23nick
00:46:23and it
00:46:23falls
00:46:23into the
00:46:24boys'
00:46:24path
00:46:24and then
00:46:25Pogler
00:46:26scores
00:46:26a totally
00:46:27different
00:46:27game
00:46:272-0
00:46:27Peter
00:46:28it's
00:46:29your happy
00:46:30days
00:46:302-1
00:46:31just gives
00:46:31him a lift
00:46:31and then
00:46:32second half
00:46:32I thought
00:46:32Kamalik were
00:46:33brilliant
00:46:33really good
00:46:35second half
00:46:35you boy
00:46:37Brandon
00:46:37scores a
00:46:37screamer
00:46:38probably
00:46:38goal of
00:46:38the season
00:46:38and
00:46:39towards the
00:46:41last 10-15
00:46:42minutes
00:46:42I was
00:46:43taking a
00:46:44point for
00:46:44Hibs
00:46:44I thought
00:46:44they looked
00:46:45knackered
00:46:45I thought
00:46:46they looked
00:46:46sloppy
00:46:46the goalkeeper
00:46:47ball at
00:46:48his feet
00:46:48bag of
00:46:49nerves
00:46:49you haven't
00:46:50seen that
00:46:50all season
00:46:51he had a
00:46:51real off
00:46:51day as
00:46:52well
00:46:52I thought
00:46:53second half
00:46:53Hibs looked
00:46:54leggy and
00:46:54Kamalik were
00:46:55the stronger
00:46:55team
00:46:55so I think
00:46:56overall when you
00:46:56look at it
00:46:57points probably
00:46:57a good result
00:46:58for Hibs
00:46:58but it's
00:46:59going to be
00:46:59difficult
00:47:00as I've
00:47:00said all
00:47:01season
00:47:01and I
00:47:01said it
00:47:01last
00:47:02season
00:47:02teams
00:47:03playing in
00:47:03Europe
00:47:03on a
00:47:04Thursday
00:47:04coming back
00:47:04and playing
00:47:05on a
00:47:05Sunday
00:47:05Hibs
00:47:06Aberdeen
00:47:07Dundee
00:47:08United
00:47:08were hoping
00:47:09as well
00:47:09it's going
00:47:10to be a
00:47:11real struggle
00:47:11for those
00:47:12clubs
00:47:12I have to
00:47:13say Ruffy
00:47:13if you are
00:47:14a boy
00:47:14talking to
00:47:15your mates
00:47:16afterwards
00:47:16what you do
00:47:18is you do
00:47:18our old pal
00:47:20Gordon Smith
00:47:21used to do
00:47:21you just
00:47:22download your
00:47:23goal onto
00:47:24video so you
00:47:24can show
00:47:25people immediately
00:47:26and Brannan's
00:47:27strike was
00:47:28absolutely out
00:47:30of the top
00:47:30drawer wasn't
00:47:31it?
00:47:31Yeah I mean
00:47:32you could see
00:47:33him watching
00:47:33it coming
00:47:33from height
00:47:34which is
00:47:34always a
00:47:35difficult
00:47:35thing to
00:47:35do and
00:47:36then to
00:47:36have the
00:47:36connection
00:47:37that he
00:47:37had
00:47:37yeah okay
00:47:39I mean
00:47:39it hit the
00:47:40back of the
00:47:40net but
00:47:41sometimes they
00:47:41could go
00:47:42anywhere
00:47:42these shots
00:47:42but I
00:47:44thought the
00:47:45goalkeeper
00:47:45could have
00:47:46done a
00:47:46wee bit
00:47:46better as
00:47:47well
00:47:47I really
00:47:48did
00:47:48Do you
00:47:50think you
00:47:50should have
00:47:50done maybe
00:47:51more of
00:47:53what you
00:47:53did
00:47:53do you
00:47:54think you
00:47:54should have
00:47:54got closer
00:47:55to
00:47:55admire
00:47:56Zico's
00:47:56curler into
00:47:57the roof
00:47:57of the net
00:47:57No it
00:47:59was not
00:48:00what about
00:48:01you told me
00:48:02there are
00:48:02some shots
00:48:03that you
00:48:03just don't
00:48:04bother
00:48:04going for
00:48:04you admire
00:48:05them
00:48:05You're
00:48:05going to
00:48:05go for
00:48:06that one
00:48:06Yeah it's
00:48:08up in the
00:48:08air forever
00:48:08you can adjust
00:48:09your feet
00:48:10and move
00:48:11back it's
00:48:11not coming
00:48:12at you like
00:48:12that
00:48:12but I'm
00:48:14not taking
00:48:14anything away
00:48:15for the
00:48:15young boy
00:48:15No I'm
00:48:16not
00:48:16I'm saying
00:48:17it was a
00:48:18very very
00:48:19good strike
00:48:19but I
00:48:20thought the
00:48:20goalkeeper
00:48:20could have
00:48:21done better
00:48:21Allie he's
00:48:22a hard man
00:48:23isn't he
00:48:23he's a
00:48:23hard man
00:48:24I thought
00:48:24it was
00:48:25fantastic
00:48:25I think
00:48:26the goalkeeper
00:48:26was off
00:48:27his line
00:48:27I think
00:48:27well that's
00:48:28another
00:48:29point
00:48:29All credit
00:48:31to
00:48:31Kettle
00:48:32for playing
00:48:32these
00:48:32young
00:48:33boys
00:48:33I thought
00:48:33it was
00:48:34encouraging
00:48:34I think
00:48:34they had
00:48:35two or
00:48:35three young
00:48:35boys
00:48:3518-20 in
00:48:36there
00:48:37Can I tell you
00:48:37something I'm
00:48:38going to change
00:48:38again I'm going to
00:48:39do it every week
00:48:40because I think
00:48:40we're in a
00:48:41generation now where
00:48:43you do get
00:48:43you know we can
00:48:45switch our opinion
00:48:46from one week to
00:48:46another
00:48:46I am trying
00:48:48desperately
00:48:48Allie to
00:48:49look at the
00:48:50teams that I'm
00:48:51going to see
00:48:51to think
00:48:52when we get to
00:48:53September 1st
00:48:54we've all agreed
00:48:54after all the
00:48:55signings that we're
00:48:55going to pick
00:48:56who we think is
00:48:56going to win the
00:48:57league and who
00:48:58we think is in
00:48:58the playoff and
00:48:59who we think is
00:48:59getting relegated
00:49:00and I have to
00:49:01say and my
00:49:02old pal Jamie
00:49:02Swinney and
00:49:03that crew at
00:49:04Falkert will not
00:49:04like me saying
00:49:05this but I am
00:49:07now looking and
00:49:08I'm saying to
00:49:08myself okay I
00:49:09can see Falkert
00:49:10going straight back
00:49:11down unless they
00:49:12get some signings
00:49:13in big time
00:49:13because Livingston
00:49:15Livingston played
00:49:17some really good
00:49:18football and
00:49:20scored a wonderful
00:49:21goal from Lewis
00:49:22Smith I mean it
00:49:22was an absolute
00:49:23worldie but the
00:49:24reason why it was
00:49:25such a good goal
00:49:26is because Adam
00:49:27Montgomery bombs
00:49:28down the left but
00:49:29when he plays the
00:49:30ball in
00:49:31Macaulay Tate has
00:49:33already as any
00:49:34good midfielder
00:49:35will tell you
00:49:35he's already looked
00:49:37and he can see
00:49:38Lewis Smith free on
00:49:39the right hand side
00:49:40so he doesn't even
00:49:41take one touch
00:49:42he just first touch
00:49:43out to him and
00:49:44he comes in and
00:49:45curls it in the
00:49:45event it was
00:49:46brilliant I mean
00:49:47Livingston played
00:49:47some really good
00:49:48football I don't
00:49:49think Livingston
00:49:50will go down
00:49:50I don't think
00:49:52they'll go down
00:49:52I think he's
00:49:54recruited well I
00:49:55think he's brought
00:49:56in players who
00:49:57know the league
00:49:59who have got
00:49:59experience of
00:50:00playing in the
00:50:01top flight I
00:50:02think he's going
00:50:02to play a
00:50:03different kind of
00:50:03style than what
00:50:05Livingston played
00:50:05when they were
00:50:06last up and I
00:50:08think he does have
00:50:09players who can
00:50:09play Lewis Smith
00:50:11I think was a
00:50:13hugely exciting
00:50:14prospect and then
00:50:15of course got a
00:50:15really bad injury
00:50:17I think he's still
00:50:18young he's still a
00:50:18very young player
00:50:20really talented
00:50:21boy some fantastic
00:50:23goals I think
00:50:24I think Livingston
00:50:26have enough to stay
00:50:28up in the fight
00:50:28the team that I
00:50:30would be concerned
00:50:30about I think is
00:50:31Falkirk too
00:50:32yeah this is what
00:50:33John McGlynn and
00:50:36David Martindale had
00:50:37to see after
00:50:37Livingston yet
00:50:38again they seem
00:50:39to have the
00:50:40Indians sign over
00:50:41Falkirk yet again
00:50:42got a convincing
00:50:43three points
00:50:43I feel from maybe
00:50:45the previous years
00:50:46in the Premiership
00:50:47the last season
00:50:49especially we've
00:50:50probably now got
00:50:51game changers on
00:50:52the part there's
00:50:53boys with real
00:50:54moments and real
00:50:55moments of
00:50:55equality and that's
00:50:57kind of what wins
00:50:58your games of
00:50:58football
00:50:58if you guys have
00:50:59looked at the
00:51:00stats you'll
00:51:00probably realise
00:51:00that the game
00:51:01is very even
00:51:02you know but
00:51:03as I said at the
00:51:04very start of
00:51:04answering your
00:51:05question goals
00:51:06you know it's
00:51:06all about getting
00:51:07goals and they've
00:51:08managed to get
00:51:08goals but if you
00:51:09look at the
00:51:09stats everything
00:51:10is dead even
00:51:11now last week
00:51:12the stats are
00:51:12dead even and
00:51:13you get a two
00:51:13weeks draw
00:51:14away to the
00:51:14United you know
00:51:15this week more
00:51:17clinical with the
00:51:19opportunities so
00:51:20there's not a
00:51:21lot wrong
00:51:21okay he says
00:51:23there's not a
00:51:23lot wrong
00:51:24the one thing
00:51:25you'll need to
00:51:25do quickly Tam
00:51:26is get players
00:51:27in
00:51:27yeah I think so
00:51:29I think the way
00:51:29Falkirk play
00:51:30they're always
00:51:31easy in the eye
00:51:31going forward
00:51:32I think you've
00:51:32seen that last
00:51:33season as well
00:51:33they play a lot
00:51:34of great football
00:51:35and I don't
00:51:35think he'll
00:51:35change for that
00:51:36but maybe just
00:51:37a wee bit more
00:51:38solidity in the
00:51:38middle of the
00:51:39park and maybe
00:51:39in the back
00:51:40you've got an
00:51:41experienced
00:51:41goalkeeper and
00:51:42Ben but I
00:51:43just think the
00:51:43way they play
00:51:44they need to have
00:51:44someone in there
00:51:45who's going to
00:51:45sit and anchor it
00:51:46and I like Brad
00:51:48Spencer I think he's
00:51:49a really good player
00:51:49in the middle of the
00:51:49park maybe someone
00:51:51in there beside him
00:51:51might be a ball
00:51:52winner
00:51:52I wonder how
00:51:54many games
00:51:55Brian Graham
00:51:56and Scott
00:51:57Arfield will be
00:51:58able to contribute
00:51:58I think he might
00:51:59be looking and
00:52:00saying okay I'm
00:52:01going to have to
00:52:01try and use them
00:52:02for 60 minutes
00:52:02in every game
00:52:03yeah it's either
00:52:04that or bring them
00:52:05on Peter for 20-25
00:52:06minutes towards the
00:52:06end but I think
00:52:08they have got a
00:52:08decent squad
00:52:09Falkirk but as I
00:52:10said I do worry
00:52:11about them defensively
00:52:11the way they play
00:52:12they're going to
00:52:13give up a lot of
00:52:14chances that's five
00:52:15goals in three
00:52:16games I've lost
00:52:16sorry two games
00:52:18I've lost and
00:52:18could have been six
00:52:19with Muirhead
00:52:20missing a penalty
00:52:20but yeah I think
00:52:22they'll be fun to
00:52:23watch but I think
00:52:24if they've got any
00:52:25aspirations of staying
00:52:25up and really
00:52:26causing teams
00:52:27problems they need
00:52:27to I'll be a bit
00:52:28more tighter at the
00:52:28back
00:52:29The biggest problem
00:52:30for them is they've
00:52:31never had to have
00:52:32a plan B because
00:52:33they've always been
00:52:34entertaining and winning
00:52:35games quite comfortably
00:52:36but now they're in a
00:52:37league now where I
00:52:38think he has to
00:52:39reassess it and say
00:52:40we have to as
00:52:42Dundee showed at the
00:52:43weekend we have to
00:52:43be organised that
00:52:44we're not going to
00:52:45lose goals and I
00:52:46think that's where
00:52:46you need to fill in
00:52:47Yeah okay give us
00:52:48your thoughts on that
00:52:49listen it's early
00:52:50days things can
00:52:50change players can
00:52:51come in you can
00:52:53adapt that's what
00:52:54managers are paid to
00:52:55do is to try and
00:52:56look at the situation
00:52:57you're in and then
00:52:58quickly try and get
00:52:59players in before the
00:53:00window closes and
00:53:01then change your
00:53:02fortunes Falkirk
00:53:03certainly one of them
00:53:05we've already
00:53:05discussed Rangers
00:53:06what about your team
00:53:08give us your thoughts
00:53:09on it and we'll read
00:53:10out your messages
00:53:11thank you to so many
00:53:12people who join us
00:53:14and give us their
00:53:15opinion some of it
00:53:16quite bold some of it
00:53:17very hard hitting
00:53:20but again we try and
00:53:21read out as many of
00:53:22the decent comments as
00:53:23we possibly can it's the
00:53:25joy of Scottish
00:53:25football who picked
00:53:27St Mirren Motherwell
00:53:27at the weekend Ali
00:53:28Cheryl
00:53:29really was a blow for
00:53:32her nil-nil in this
00:53:34one but yet again I
00:53:35suppose two managers
00:53:35come in and say
00:53:37clean sheet well let's
00:53:38just find out if that's
00:53:39what Jens Berthel
00:53:41Eskow and Stephen
00:53:42Robinson mentioned
00:53:43maybe I give too much
00:53:44respect in terms of when
00:53:46they were playing out
00:53:47in their own half
00:53:47second half we released
00:53:49a little bit more and
00:53:49took the ball off of
00:53:51numerous occasions
00:53:51made them kick it out
00:53:52of play a lot of times
00:53:53made them look average
00:53:55where in the first half
00:53:56we set off and made
00:53:56them perhaps look better
00:53:57in a certain area that
00:53:59wasn't hurting us of
00:53:59course but yeah everyone
00:54:01has to take responsibility
00:54:02myself included
00:54:03I don't know if I have
00:54:04a frustration we played
00:54:05Rangers who we know
00:54:06is a very top very big
00:54:08team and then we played
00:54:10a team that was in top
00:54:11six the last two years
00:54:12and who are very
00:54:13very difficult to beat
00:54:14we kept the clean sheet
00:54:15we're happy with that
00:54:16so I won't say I'm
00:54:17frustrated that's a big
00:54:19word to use
00:54:20Fair play to Mother
00:54:22what off you they kept
00:54:23one of the best midfields
00:54:24in the country at bay
00:54:25sorry Ali I had to do
00:54:27I had to go over it
00:54:28did you put your head
00:54:29above the parapet with
00:54:30that line you get shot
00:54:31down yeah I think two
00:54:33of them went into the
00:54:34game hoping to win
00:54:36St Mern reasonable
00:54:37performance against
00:54:38Celtic and obviously
00:54:39Mother getting the draw
00:54:40against Rangers so the
00:54:42probably went into the
00:54:42game thinking right
00:54:43we're going to win this
00:54:44but it was just a damn
00:54:46squid wasn't it I mean
00:54:47there was nothing
00:54:47happening I think both
00:54:48of them cancelled each
00:54:49other it wasn't a lot
00:54:50of goal mouth incidents
00:54:52not a lot of saves
00:54:53either so basically I
00:54:55think the two managers
00:54:56will just go away and
00:54:57say right point each
00:54:58this is the toughest I
00:54:59don't know about you
00:55:00Tom this is the
00:55:01toughest season and
00:55:02I'm heartened at the
00:55:04moment and I'm trying
00:55:05to be you know I
00:55:06don't know whether it's
00:55:07a kind of a reassessment
00:55:09of my life Ali but I'm
00:55:10trying to be as
00:55:11positive as I
00:55:12possibly can going to
00:55:13midlife crisis well
00:55:14could be thanks
00:55:15hearing next yeah
00:55:18blonde hair you've
00:55:19been there but I'm
00:55:21trying to be as
00:55:21positive as possible
00:55:22and I've and I've
00:55:23watched games over the
00:55:24last couple of weeks
00:55:25and I've thoroughly
00:55:26enjoyed watching
00:55:28players trying to play
00:55:29football on the deck
00:55:29thankfully Livingston's
00:55:31pitch albeit still
00:55:32artificial is better
00:55:35than it was last
00:55:35season although I
00:55:36would suggest to you
00:55:37that two out of the
00:55:38three injuries in the
00:55:39first half were down
00:55:40to the pitch yeah I
00:55:41think it's always the
00:55:42start of the season
00:55:43decent weather nice
00:55:44pitches I think it's
00:55:45always easier to play
00:55:46better football there's
00:55:47not as much pressure on
00:55:48it at the start of the
00:55:48season you get to
00:55:50December January
00:55:51February pitches are
00:55:52crap you're bottom
00:55:53six you're struggling
00:55:54against relegation
00:55:55temptation then is to
00:55:57go launch launch it
00:55:58or be safer than your
00:55:59outlook to football but
00:56:01so far so good you know
00:56:03a lot of good goals a lot
00:56:03of good play at the
00:56:04weekend I definitely think
00:56:06there's teams I think
00:56:07Livingston will add to
00:56:08the league I think they
00:56:09look better this season
00:56:10I think Hibs will be
00:56:10better Hearts are better
00:56:12Dunn United are
00:56:13certainly better
00:56:13Motherwell could be the
00:56:16surprise package as well
00:56:17they've started okay as
00:56:18well so I think it's got
00:56:19to be a really competitive
00:56:20league and it would be
00:56:21great if at the top it
00:56:23was competitive and at
00:56:23the bottom it was
00:56:24competitive but it would
00:56:24be great if a Hearts or
00:56:25a Hibs could go and
00:56:26really put pressure on
00:56:27probably Rangers for that
00:56:29second spot yeah I
00:56:29think it was just over
00:56:3010,000 at Tanadice
00:56:31Robbie I mean we always
00:56:33say if you can get out
00:56:34to a game go and see
00:56:36football go and see
00:56:37some good players I've
00:56:38seen some really good
00:56:39players in the last
00:56:39couple of weeks I'm
00:56:40really enthused by what
00:56:42I'm watching yeah I
00:56:43think most of the
00:56:44players that have come
00:56:44in players that we
00:56:46wouldn't know have any
00:56:47knowledge of where the
00:56:49teams that they've come
00:56:50from and they're
00:56:51encouraging to see a
00:56:53player that you've
00:56:54never seen before doing
00:56:55particularly well done
00:56:56to United you highlighted
00:56:57the couple that they've
00:56:58got but I think every
00:56:59club you know has got
00:57:00somebody who's going to
00:57:01offer this year yeah
00:57:03and of course next
00:57:04week the English
00:57:05Premier League will
00:57:06start sometimes it's a
00:57:07nice curtain raiser to
00:57:09the whole thing with the
00:57:10charity shield you know
00:57:11some managers count it
00:57:12as a trophy one but
00:57:14it's one of those games
00:57:16that's played out in
00:57:17good spirits
00:57:17Crystal Palace 2
00:57:18Liverpool 2 and Palace
00:57:20win it on penalties
00:57:21but I still can't I
00:57:23just think Liverpool
00:57:23look fantastic I think
00:57:25there's a wee tweak here
00:57:25and there yeah I think
00:57:27so too I think yeah I
00:57:29think they're always a
00:57:30couple of weeks just
00:57:31behind the season
00:57:32getting underway but I
00:57:33think there'll be a lot
00:57:34of intrigue down there
00:57:35as well I'm sure yeah I
00:57:37think Liverpool look good
00:57:38I think obviously maybe
00:57:40just interesting to see
00:57:43how they cope with all
00:57:44the off-field stuff and
00:57:45just the Jota thing the
00:57:47effect that that has in
00:57:48our dressing room I
00:57:49think that could have
00:57:50been really tough to
00:57:51manage for players over
00:57:53the last couple of
00:57:53weeks particularly when
00:57:54you're just coming back
00:57:55in to our dressing room
00:57:56just the shock of it
00:57:58and managing the emotions
00:57:59that go with that
00:58:00but certainly on the
00:58:02pitch and the initial
00:58:04impression is that yeah
00:58:05you look like the team
00:58:06to beat yeah I never
00:58:07like to look down south
00:58:08and the players that
00:58:09they are they're now
00:58:10signing players for
00:58:1173 million and nobody's
00:58:12cracking a light
00:58:13Ruffy so I was
00:58:14wondering what price
00:58:15Isaacs is going to be
00:58:17what the what are they
00:58:18going to how that
00:58:19bargaining going on
00:58:20between the two clubs
00:58:21and then I think he's
00:58:22going to go for about
00:58:23120 million to Liverpool
00:58:24I don't think so the
00:58:25one thing I was going
00:58:26to say to you Ruffy
00:58:26it's a big week for
00:58:27football and the good

00:59:44there there isn't
00:59:45anybody out there
00:59:46who's doing what we're
00:59:46doing yeah and with
00:59:48that in mind this week
00:59:49Tom I'm looking forward
00:59:50to Europe because I'd
00:59:51love to see Dundee
00:59:52United and Hibs come
00:59:54up with great results
00:59:55I'm going to go back
00:59:56up to Tannadise I
00:59:57think I might actually
00:59:57buy a flat up there
00:59:58I've been up there
00:59:59in the last three
01:00:00weeks on the trot
01:00:00steady I'm looking at
01:00:01Alison because she's
01:00:02dictating things I
01:00:03don't know why I gave
01:00:04her the head job in
01:00:05here because I'm just
01:00:06going to Dundee every
01:00:07time don't I think
01:00:08she's trying to tell
01:00:09me something but I'll
01:00:10be back in Dundee to
01:00:11see if they can put
01:00:12paid to rapid Vienna
01:00:13yeah you would think
01:00:13Rangers are through
01:00:14Peter you'd like to
01:00:15think Hibs are through
01:00:16obviously they're in
01:00:1791 is in the
01:00:18melting pot 50-50 game
01:00:20but with that support
01:00:21behind them full
01:00:22Tannadise you know
01:00:23like the old European
01:00:23Knights they can pull
01:00:25off a bit of an upset
01:00:25I think it would be an
01:00:26upset if they beat
01:00:27Rapid Vienna so
01:00:27fingers crossed that
01:00:29they can go through
01:00:30as well
01:00:30yeah could you see me
01:00:31staying in Dundee for
01:00:32any given period of
01:00:33time
01:00:33no no no I think
01:00:36he'd come back down
01:00:36the road Dundee's
01:00:37okay but no long term
