A little bit of extra time for season 14 as Krys puts together a short bonus podcast from some of the audio that couldn't make it into the previous episode.Continuing the theme of Euro 2024, we have the thoughts of Robert and Vinny, two voices from the Championship, whilst there's also the thoughts of Russell from the 3 Lions podcast to give the English perspective. And of course Krys gives his own thoughts at the end.Thanks as always for listening!Bluesky - @sffpodcast.bsky.socialTwitter/X - @sffpodcastInstagram - sffpodcastTikTok - @sffpodcastFacebook - Scottish Football ForumsMastodon - @sffpodcast@mastodon.scotEmail - scottishfootballforumspodcast@gmail.com

S14E60 L is For...
John, Krys and guest Alan are on the latest episode as we try to gee ourselves up ahead of the upcoming friendlies.After an intro that could have been gold we start with the goalkeeper situation. Safe to say as always this seems a real area of concern with so few options.Things maybe get slightly more optimistic as we progress further up the pitch.There have been plenty of guys in the squad who have been really successful. Can we find the right combination? Will one or more of the uncapped players take their chance?We finish off by discussing what we'd like to take in terms of positives from these games.Next week we will return with a chat about our experiences at Euro 2024 as it approaches a year since the tournament started.Thanks as always for listening!Bluesky - @sffpodcast.bsky.socialTwitter/X - @sffpodcastInstagram - sffpodcastTikTok - @sffpodcastFacebook - Scottish Football ForumsMastodon - @sffpodcast@mastodon.scotEmail - scottishfootballforumspodcast@gmail.com
It's a podcast of two halves in this month's focus on all things women's football.We start off with Dave being joined by Charlie and Casey, before switching to Dave's chat with Eva Murray (which you may notice was recorded first!)Obviously the main focus is on the league success for Hibernian. There were of course other runners in the race, some more than others, and particularly the disappointment of outgoing champions Celtic finishing in fourth.Although Rangers missed out on the title on the final day, they did finish the season with a cup double, culminating in their Scottish Cup final victory on Sunday. That meant Glasgow City are once again trophyless, albeit they will have Champions League qualifying next season for finishing runners up in the league.At the other end of the table, it was Spartans who joined Queen's Park and Dundee United in being relegated to SWPL2 with Montrose confirming their top flight status on the final day as results went their way.Finally there's everyone's pick for team of the season, as well as a look ahead to the final two Nations League matches and a fond farewell to our retiring captain, Rachel Corsie.Thanks as always for listening!Bluesky - @sffpodcast.bsky.socialTwitter/X - @sffpodcastInstagram - sffpodcastTikTok - @sffpodcastFacebook - Scottish Football ForumsMastodon - @sffpodcast@mastodon.scotEmail - scottishfootballforumspodcast@gmail.com

It's six days until Celtic and Aberdeen meet in the Scottish Cup Final, and John B speaks to a former player from each side to take a trip down memory lane by recalling their respective past glories as well as looking ahead to this years showpiece.First up is Aberdeen's Brian Irvine looking back at The Dons last Scottish Cup success in 1990. Brian talks about the run to Hampden and how Alex Smith told him in advance of the Final that he'd retain his place ahead of the returning Willie Miller. Brian would then fulfil a boyhood dream by winning the Cup after a marathon penalty shootout victory, with his spot kick sealing a 9-8 success.Next up is Celtic cult hero Peter Grant. Having missed wins in '85 and '88 through injury, it would be third time lucky for Peter by picking up a winner's medal in 1989 thanks to a 1-0 win over Rangers. However, he talks more in depth about the 1995 Final against Airdrie where he overcame a late injury scare to put in a man of the match performance as the Hoops secured their first trophy in six years (yes young Celtic fans, that really did happen). Having been through those dark times, Peter is quick to remind Celtic fans to enjoy the current success whilst it's here.Copyright - audio from the 1990 and 1995 Scottish Cup Finals are courtesy of the Scottish FA, STV and BBC Scotland.Thanks as always for listening!Tweet us @sffpodcastInstagram - sffpodcastFacebook - Scottish Football ForumsMastodon - @sffpodcast@mastodon.scotBluesky - @sffpodcast.bsky.socialEmail - scottishfootballforumspodcast@gmail.com
