Six Games, Zero Margin: The Title Race Begins Now

·1 hr 38 min·5 clips

Barry Ferguson says winning the title means finding a way to win at Celtic Park and Tynecastle, dismissing split conspiracies.

Host Paul Cooney is joined by ex-Rangers captain Barry Ferguson and former Celtic defender Darren O'Dea to preview the final six games of the Scottish Premiership season. The episode opens with a discussion of the post-split fixtures, with Ferguson dismissing conspiracy theories and emphasizing the need to win tough away games. Predictions for the weekend see all three title contenders—Rangers, Celtic, and Hearts—tipped to win. Injury updates form a major segment, covering Rangers striker Nadiri's serious muscle injury, Celtic defender Araujo's likely season-ending issue, and fitness doubts over players like Mikey Moore and Colby Donovan. The panel debates the impact of these absences on squad depth. A Celtic fan caller, Stevie, criticizes the team's predictable 'tippy-tappy' style and poor chance conversion, sparking a tactical discussion on whether Celtic should play two strikers. Goal difference is identified as a potential decider, with Rangers holding a ten-goal advantage. The conversation broadens to include the Championship, where St Johnstone are now favourites, and relegation worries for Aberdeen and Ross County. Later segments cover Andy Robertson's Liverpool departure, Willie Haughey's Celtic season ticket alliance, and the importance of fan support. Rangers' upcoming training camp in Spain is discussed, along with analysis of individual players like Rangers' new signings and Celtic's young goalkeeper Vijay Sinisalo. The episode concludes with team selections for the weekend and reflections on the physicality Rangers hold over Celtic.
