Things thingsings good in Miami Well, I'm not actually in Miami at the moment. I'm still in Orlando, but I'm driving to Miami later on today. So what time was it? It twenty one minutes past six. I'm glad you clarified that because I'm looking behind me and I thought you were drump chap, m That looks like a shutole you're in. muchuch is that tonight? Are they paying you is Keny selling stuff in the corner shops to get money to pay for that. Penny Stoney's bed. What is up behiding you Be I could say everything No,' if you've ever been to Florida Or Orlando, I'm in a villa And that' there's a pool behind me and it's one of these sort of like things to keep a pool No, it's a decent sizeed pool right I lish. but you can see over my shoulders. S h good Yeah, yeah. Yeah fuck I don't know I need travel with you. D, it's not even light Sleeing in the sn' sleevingopet So that's how early it is here. So So when you head to Miami In about four hours time, so we're driving down in Miami a bit later on the day. So yeah, looking forward to that. How does that take Is three and a half hours or something? and a half hours or something like that. so I'm driving. So you've actually caught me on a rare day. So yesterday was a huge day because it was the first day since I've been away where I've not had a beer So um ye, you're looking fresh I wouldn't go that far. By the wayay, I'm going to confish something, right? And all the times I've been abroad I've never driven abroad because I don't think I would be able to do it Really? No, like That's interesting. I like driving abroad so like I've driven in Spain and France and Italy and B and America, like I've driven a little. What sh there ro to drive over there The opposite from where we drive's just no it's just me No, but it's fine because you get used to it because you just go on the right side of the road because if you don't, you just hit oncoming traffic. So like ye Yeah that would be my biggest fear. I but you just don't do that because then you have oncoming traffic does because if you if you didn't do that, you would You would had oncon traffic, so that would be terrible. So I bet there are a few people out there in this samebat as me that they go abroad and they've never driven because it's another side of the road You're an interesting man because obviously you said before that you're actually quite a nervous person. like you said, they used to like, you know, spew before football matches and stuff like that. And even on the even in the podcast in Super Sboard, you say you never really watch it back. You say you do now, you're getting better at it, but you're nervous driver as well. No in Scotland No, I'm very, very capable driver in Scotland, I've got to say. I'll back myselfell against anybody U I've even been in Okal. I've even been in Okkeal and forul are three Let me tell you, do this You do this at least at one point every week when we're talking about something else. you do analyze something like open. L That's exactly what you've just done there. I back my driving against anyone, you know, I was setting a stall out early. Yeah. And getting any any top gear is as quick as I can get there, let me say I was driving into today and I'm thinking to myself, I thought you were actually going to be with us live from Miami And you would just be surrounded by Brazilians And I'm thinking today I'm thinking today driving in, he's going to be surrounded with Brazilians everywhere And I've just come out a pool We do an Aqua training with ladies from the ages to seventy to ninety Right, okay. So how did joke How did your eo training go? and what explain equo training to people that don't? Well I don't even know if there's a thing called Aquit training, right It's a group of old women are getting and by the way lovely ladies, let me tell you, they get in the pool They get in the pool and do their exercises Right you decided to join the I was only man I was the only guy in the pool beside them doing the exercises, Yeahah ish packings, you could say. No, and the reason by the way, well, I'll tell you a big pleasure in a lot of yous. I've got to say that the ladies were brilliant and the instruct her G eat music Great music, love the music. And the reason I'm doing it is not because of what's he doing You know, the reason I'm doing it is quite simple. you know, I've got a massive problem with my hip So I'm doing all my swreting exercises and most of it is getting done in the water And I decided today. Amen, Amen Speedoes on and I go And let me tell you I kept up with the best of them kept up with Wilma and Norma and all the rest Yeah and ye these people. Yeah, they wereantast. And by the way, they get right here and take these ladies as well They get right into they they they they take it very serious indeed. You don't want to cut one of them off Are you in real real trouble just a good bang. Well, I No well maybe I maybe phrased that wrong. I don't care Exactly. So there' a difference. I'm in the pool with old ladies working away and you're heading down to Miami to see all the magnificent Brazilians But that's the thing. You know the reality of the situation that I'm facing because as we saw in the podcast last week, Kenny can pop up at any point. it's Kenny. Pop plus. K Kenny's still on his bed at this moment in time. It's just a weeb bit early for Kenny and I do think He has been struggling with his newfound fame over the last week or so because A lot of people have contacted them to wind them up And and it has been, I mean, obviously on TikTok and it's gone mental as well. I'm not sure if you're on TikTok does and Say clipped off All right and posted it somewhere and yeah, it was it was very, very funny. I guess you missed us last week., One of the guys's dad's one of our best mates Kirk, his dad this here Kenny. And when I was recording the podcast last week up in Boston, he just decided to come and sit behind me eat me c the o hapf half in one of these sorty classic sorty moments and you were like, who the fucks? That was tets it. so yeah, Kenny's still in his bed. I think you're about lo in Kenny's door He might make an appearance that I've wedged the door open closed so he can of get out. So yeah, absolutely brilliant. I don't think so Dave has been in touch. How can the dazzler behind you on the couch and in the studio? A lot of people thought was you.. But he's not as tanned as you. You've got a better tan. Exactly, exactly U getting alsoort Lot to chat about barbecues last week. Steven Jackson RFC. I live in Kansas and barbecue is the bomb I've spent so much on grills for it and if needed, I could cook on three at a time. I'd barbecue every week if it was affordable. We had a barbecue last night. I. I can see the barbecue just over my shoulder and were you the Barbacu A I am the barbecue chef. A you? Always There's no they getting a chance at that Someeday el started a last. You know, you're one of these selfish people and, they're a perfect example. You're doing the podcast. You're now even linking Kenny back on a Li fucking out showown you last week, right? You're driving, you want to be the driver You want it The barbecue And what else are he doing over here U I'm doing various other things over here actually but I just think if you want something done right then you do it yourself does. That's probably my attitude to something. Okay so I'd be quite happy two things You doing the barbecuing and driving, I would shoot me. I'd be happy with you Absolutely. You'd be fine with that. There was also a lot of chat about what position I played last week because you said I looked like a terrible footballer Oh, right. come on. I said you were a wee staly Midfield just sitting there throwing your body in front of Eone because that was probably Yeah, Yange What I would say is my physique now is wildly different from what I was when I played football. I've probably Sammed in Oh You does. If I were to show you a photo of in my football team, you probably even wouldn't recognize me. You genuinely wouldn't recognize me and because I'm probably about Four stone heavier, I would say. Shing like that. Oh sure youre I whip it Do that change information? Yes. Yes. Okay, right. So so what you what you think? I'm going Winger I'm going winger with your pace. And because you're not got a midfield per. I don't think you get much ability. You you don't look a goal scorer Right? K goal scoreters look like me. U So if you're f stone lighter mate You're high everything. You're a winger There you go. I'm no wrong in this. One of my former teammates G in touch His name is Martin Shepherd. And he has left a comment on the YouTube page like You can do every single week if you fancy And he said Fin us right back in the league for the mighty Iber King United So that was me. They were right back I was l. She I told you wade. Pers You know, weirdly, I actually ended up playing left back for quite a lot of my time playing football. and I don't know. I'm not light footed, but I was just they played me in the way. because the h bike was good Do you have to love me So they had to cl yen somewhere because they knew that In future years you'd probably be radio and stuff like that and they needed to. sort of a palm to yellow bit Yeah, possibly And probably it would be your Bowl You probably turned over the m. When I set up the goal on my flag. Yeah. But I did everything Yeah. That's only eas you get a game Yeah, probably. Right. Okaykay. lots of stuff happening over the last week or so in Scottish football domestically, is there anything that's jumped out? I know the European sort of qualifiers have been announced in all the restates. So hearts are playing Stom gratz or so in their Champions League qualifier. wouldould you what's your got any opinion on Austrian football? Not really, not really. listen You look at football nowadays and everybody used to go by the size of the club, the name, everything. Look at the World Cup. and look at Belgium Right? Yeah. You look at back They've been honking, haven't they? Terrible. abbsolutely terrible. Did you see the Caate Verd? youuqu game was know it was late for you guys, but how good were Cape Verdict? Verd? That's what I'm saying to you. So it doesn't matter who you get nowadays and you look at their names There's there's not a lot. there are easy games out there. I do agree with that. But it's not like the old days when you hear a name coming out and you think, o they'll pump us or or we're got to beat them in three four now. Look at Scotland, Haiti, right? If you'd have said that years ago You're thinking, this is a sex M. But We're delighted we won. Yes. You know what I mean? So football has changed in so many ways now. I'll be interesting to see how the qualifiers go for the air teams Alfred Johansson has been named the Motherwell manager. He's most recently in charge of Rosenberg. He's a thirty five year old Swed. You got any opinions on thirty five year old Swedes? No I'm not against us. I see where they're coming from He coach Copenhagen sevent s and ninet s So that ticked the box for Mother will because Mother will like to produce youth as well Right? He obviously was in Norway with Rosenberg, he got a three year contract when he was thirty two years age. so it shows you But they thought of them at that age And I think you got her three year contract after that and then they get stacked or something. the way it worked out Yeah. but I think they're very excited because they seem to fit A lot of the bell of the Ys And I think that's the way they want it to go down. and they work very hard of up. Hard toit Sorry and I know that for a fact U, because I'm very close to Motherw. Um You're in Motherwill. was this did you pick up this information in Mid? Well in the flat window and I fucking heard them talking in the boardroom. I'm not close. Well, I was going to say maybe in Sertain Nland Astda or something like that. No, no, no, no, no, I'm very close to Motherwill where I live Link Every appointment a matter who is You can do your homework, you can do your research, you can tick every box going You just need to hope for the base. lookook, It's got to be a hard act to follow, off course it is. We spoke about it quite a lot last week because it wasn't officially confirmed, but now it is confirmed Derek McGinnness officially Rangers boss, I'm sure, super scoreboard over the last week or so. What's the general consensus Obviously out the loop here? Are Rangers fans happy with that? I think biggest percentage of are, yeah I I think that that was the number one choice him or obviously Stehen Jarard's name keeps popping up every time Rangers's job comes up But I think the fact too Derek knows the league everything about it. We had one or two callers on talking about o we have to be a bit more ambitious. We have to get someone that's going to take us into Europe and, you know, try and be a success in Europe. but points quite simple. I think Rangers have got to by success with her bread and bar and their own league because the Fannish thought last year as well didn't win a trophy. So they need to get back to domestic football and win in trophies in domestic football and then hopefully that leads into good European campaigns. So yeah, I think the percentage a big percentage of Rangers fans are quite happy with appointments Death taxis and people moaning about the fixtures everyvery single So like even like Iv I was looking at them firming fixures and people were like, o it's a tough start. I'm like, who you got? who you got? Inverness away on the first day and then at homeir United on the second week. And then I think we're away to Livingston. But I was like, well, we need to play all these teams anyway. So like like it doesn't matter. L, you know, like And also we have no idea what these teams are going to be like because we've got it it's still preseason. Anyway, Celtic are they happy because they'll ha to wait until the Monday night to take on Dundee. in their first match of the season and lifting the flag and all the rest of it. So I get h I get that A do important we I get it because of I get it Because seeltk are complaining about the fixt in Monday, I think it's through the fact of I think I think it the fans because we know itsel to a big traveling support from Ireland, which might make it diff difficult for people to go over and enjoy the celebrations because that's a massive day for them U they're the champions Monday night opening game I get it. Listen, I know that football is d teams have to play in a Monday night though does. I know but so look there are champions that are at home unfing the flag I Do you not think they deserve And the fact that the supporters and as I touched on, there'll be a lot of supporters that probably at the weekend if it was a Saturday or Sunday would have made the journey no problem. Monday night, I don't know, half sevenenty o'clock, whatever it may be I' Sos difficult Yeah, but they travel for Champions League games during the week. So what's the difference? Okay, you got me in that one. . Okay. so No I do I understand it I really do it. See sees a sortly wider point. actuallyct I know like the SBFL' made a big thing that all the games are going to go in sky and that as the first time's happened and all the rest, which is a move in the right direction. I think we could probably do a wee bit more with open weekend to be perfullly honest with you just make it Ive it very exciting. I'm not sure. I'm not sure f. Yeah but you know, I got I can, I don't know if the fixureures up in front of me, but we've got producer Jay this week, which actually is really good because you'll notice everything will move a lot slicker and you won't use No mistakesround there's no mistakes and stuff like that. Jay, can you get up whoos Johnson are playing on open weekend? I'm pretty sure they'll be at home Obviously they won the championship. by them I think she would just enjor a player because They play Konica home, Yeah.. That's a class Yeah because we're going out. But's something to tell you. You wouldn't need to go there. tell I think there's only two matches. There's only two matches that are on Saturday afternoon, I think I'm. D Rangers go to Tanadise on the Friday, an't it? But You know, I think as much as We can't have it both ways. We're getting money, Obviously the clubs are getting money from TV revenue, off course they are I feel sorry for suppors Yeah, I mean, I have absolute sympathy with supporters and in terms of the Monday night stuff with Celtic Yeah, that's a bit annoying, but other teams have to play on Monday night as well and I can't remember a lot. I can't remember last time I S played on Monday night. When did S play last play on Mondayight? So like you know But that's not that's not I don't think have I arguing that I think after opening gambit against Uundee, I think they'd be quite happy to playing on a Monday night if they have to. I just think that I say we but unfortunate. I think it'd have been more exciting You know, part the Champions unfunneling the flag May mayaybe they should make it a rule that the champions open the entire season You know what I mean? Like I would I'd be big good, you know, I've selt like had the first game or, you know, whoever wins the leag has the first game every single season Sun like that to open the new season And that's the big game. I think that would make sense. And then that would be then that would be in the Friday night, is that better? I know I must you, well, I used to love Friday Night football give you the weekend off You know what I mean? that's because you had other activities plann for the weekend We know he does, I mean, I don't know if you saw this, Stehen we spoke about this on Super Skoreboard, but that interview resurfaced of Gordon Der when he was a player And he was ask about one. Yeah, yeah, but it's one relevant to this. the stupidest rule in the game that games are played on Saturdays if we played on Friday nights we could go on the batatter for two nights every weekend and save Saturdays for golf and snooker so you'd like playing on a Frid night or something the weekend one you does? Yeah, that's an EI. Don't believe that interview. That's an AI interview Is that what you're sticking to? Yeah Is you'. Yeah, ye. AI was out long, long before let me tell you, there's a perfect example there. That is tot nonsense. I didn't do that interview. Well, okay, that interview hass been made up. You mentioned old ladies at the bass. Well, this AI interview was asked A interview was asked. What do you hate most in the game? and you said AI Gordon Dle said When I go to the bastic r of an injury, I can't swim. So from we kids to OAPs laugh at me one more snigger and I swear I'll drown one of them. That's toall lies Honestly, see people are just make up lies about you I like the APs. I'm in the club now Monday Monday, Wednesday Thursday is now. So if you're looking for me Monday, Wednesday, Thursday morning You know what I'll be? I'll be in the person with my newly foreign friends. newly formed placeace, like That's when you get your plastic surgery done d. they're newly formed. Right, One final bit of news, Folkk have sold Barney Stewart to Westbrom for a club record fee. They rec' one point three million pounds. firstirst of all, well done at the boy. I think that's a great move for him and hopefully can kick on for there. He's great. listen, he's a bit rougher in the edges as Barnney Stewart, but he had a great season last year. He was great when he was on oneed them Firmland went backad to falker scoreds. he goes and know was injured towards the end of the season, but Seems like a nice b guy Yen a good move from Westbrom. Oh Well, personally it's a good move and for Falker getting that money. haveave a look what he was blain University football. Do you guys get a little bit of a cut of that? I think you deserve that, Stephen. Well, I think so too. I think we can take a lot of credit for Falks. hundredundred percent Bght him on. Yeah exactly. You on. No, I think I think I think for a boy personally, it's a big move. It's another challenge in his career going forward. difficult league down there, B club as well. expectations are very, very high. little bit more pressure on them. B bothoth parties. You've got to be happy if you're both parties, aren't you? I'm going down there, the money's gone the boy's g to make, everything about it a high standard of football probably for me That and then Fork good raaking an over a million quit we cant argue give Well done to the boy, right. Let's get moved on to the World Cup then and Scotland and it was defeat in Boston or just south of Boston against Morocco and it was Gordon yell, a horror start. seventy seconds on the clock and Morocco rifle themselves in front Jnt Hanley Please everyone on side. whichich can happen and at that point Obviously you were doing the show live, wereere you fearing the worst Yeah, I think everybody was. if you're totally honest about it, we had to dig deep I thought the first half were very, very poor indeed U, but look We knew it was quite a bit difficult What are the sixth or seventh rankings? Yeah. Six. Is it six? So you knew it was going to be difficult. You knew the way they started against Brazil. That L we will make mistakes. Of course Hanley' got to check out of responsibility, a big bit of responsibility U but you knew that after watching Brazil, they're going to come out the tramps. That's what they did against Brazil. They were on the front foot right at them. Uset, Brazil, I've never seen Brazil for about twenty minutes giving the ball away in all my life the way they did Um, So we should have been ready for that, but It was a mistake that defensiveullly was very, very poor indeed And we assumed in the stadium, sorry dad, we assumed in the stadium we were sortly up the other end. we were like, oh, it must be miles off side because it looked like everyone kind have stopped And then obviously like you know, soon in the back of the guyss all side. and by the way, it's an amazing finish rilliant finish with a guy We were just like, o no, this is going to be a long night And so as the the first half went on. Like they could have been two or three up at halfime and it wouldn't have been flattering for them. They're a really, really, really good side. I think they're going to go quite far in this tour. one hundred percent. And then, you know, we've been saying, you've been looking at some of the other groups And you look at the way that you mentioned them earlier like Belgium have been some of the bigger teams. Like there's been a lot of shk in this tournament You were great You know, Haiti wouldn't up too much But Morocco, obviously pretty decent. Brazil and Brazil.ve got we've got an incredibly difficult group Like I think it's a really difficult group. So we need a point against Brazil to guarantee that we're going to go through And we'll get to that game in a second, but in terms of the What posositives can you take for that game on Friday night U The biggest one is it was only one nil because Gld Dins might come into it Stephen We know that. Yeah, well, it definitely will. Secondly, we could easily you're quite rightly saying there about it could have been easily two or three in the first half We doggg in deep Right? I didn't think it was the greatest. I wasn't everyverybody talks about the encouragement of the second half. Yeah, the second half was more encouraging. We went forward Look, there' two sides to it. We didn't really test the goalkeeper, right But to be fair, they didn't really test us You know what I mean? I sa thought second times they sort of took the fill off the gas I mean you. I thought they were pretty comfortable And and then yeah, we did play b in the second half and obviously When we saw the team and we were like Where's Ganon Do Why is doke notock playing. And I know what Clark was obviously trying to do and Temsy play Robertson and Tiere down the left hand side to try and stifle Diaz and Hikimi. Yeah. I mean, it kind of works I all. Like it kind of works for a wee while and then it TMA obviously like like it ace Yeah and he'd run his race and bring on dok. Dke' so important because he's the only player that we've got that scares opppposition defenders with peace. Yeah. I think he'ss he's not always got the end product because he's still young and he's still learning But he's the only player that offers something a little bit different and I h you have to play him. S that to play The thing I' say about Ganon Dak is quite simple for me. Senior up against the big teams and the good teams are going probably have the mostost of the possession You need the bowl cut in. You need someed that's going to get you up the park Right And he's a guy. you give him the ball. he'll take you thirty forty yards up the pitch because he'll go up players, he'll get by players. he'll knock it by them. He's a traditional old fashioned winger type thing for me, right? He's get everything. you're right, maybe his weakness a little bit, that final ball bit that'll come. But he's a kindy guy now that He'll do his defensive work F you The most important thing is he'll go and he'll take you out the park and he might win you throwing. It might win you an opportunity. He might win you a chance to put the ball in the box and then go and attack it It' I totally understand what Steve Clarark was trying to do. He was trying to make sure down that right hand side that They didn't absolutely kill us because you're looking at if McGinn had played and Dke had Gan and Dke had played in the right Mcain would have had to play any out. I think that would have been hardshhip for him She basically down the right hand side. So he doubled up He doubled up and he looked at obviously Morocco and thought, that's our biggest strength. We'll double up. We'll put two very Good experienced players on that left hand side, natural players that know how to play that U Obviously The goal was in the script. You can't do about that. Steve Clark can't do anything about that. There's nothing to do. Steve Clark gotot to take responsibility players sometimes. But to get out where a w n. Yeah, you know what? It was weird after the game Garden me and my mate were walking at the stadium and we were kind of like That's not a bad result. You know, we're kind of like what one no isn't terrible. because it is going to come down to a goal difference, I think because I think it's going to be really difficult to get out off in Brazil. And see you're saying there about players taking responsibility as well I actually thought I thought Jack Hndry had an excellent game. I thought he was probably one of our better players. I thought Lewis Ferguson played really well again And then you're looking at McTominy and Mcgan and Roberts and they were quiet Like they they like they didn't didn't do anything massively wrong. I don't think they were terrible or anything like that. but These are the fls that You look to take responsibility and try and make things happen. Tell me something. She's a Scotland fan over here, you get the feel of it, right? Do we put too much pressure on Thec M Tomins and I was just going to say, I was just going to say Similar to that, maybe we're putting a weeb bit too much pressure on them because we look at them and what John Mcginns done with Asonvilla, which has been amazing Scott McTominy and Napolally, obviously Andy Robertson in the Liverpool, He's going at the spurs now. A we putting a weeb bit too much pressure on them to carry the rest of the team And And maybe that's maybe that's weighing them down, no you but I don't know, does? Yeah, that's why I asked the question because you don't see these guys and we know they're qualities look, they're brilliant and brilliant football players. They' playing big leagues, they're playing big games U so it's not the fact that occasion's getting to them, right I don't sure what willll cut, but They still can handle that no problem. but donon't seem to be living up to their The reputation are plenty to the best of their ability. Is that to do is that an individual thing or is that the way that the team set up? couldould be a bit of both Stephven. couldould be a bit of both. but Listen If you're ever going to need them to do that and live up to their reputation and their ability no better time than Wednesday night, let me say. Yeah. or totally. And by the way, I think if there's lots of things you can level at Steve Clark and this Scotland team. One thing you can't is their endeavour. and how hard they work for each other for themselves, I think they absolutely work their bllocks off onn Fridayight and dug in really well on the in the second half out and even in the first half to be honest with you after that really, really dodgy start to say the least And so I don't think there's there's nobody can say they're not You know, given absolutely one hundred percent and given everything, it's just not quite clicking at this moment in time and but to be honest, if you look back at the qualifiers a lot of the time You know, our performances weren't fantastic, but we were getting results. Yeah. And that was the most important thing because you would take our result over aperformance every single day. But sometimes it catches up you but what changes if any? would you make Well or Wednesday night? because like there's a lot of people saying, Oh we need to be more on the front foot If we know one thing for sure We're not going to be on the front frot on Wednesday night against Brazil. No, play exactly the same way. No, was I was going to ask you because I'm not going see to probably next Monday U if you making see me next Monday because I'll be I'll be flying next Monday Are you flying home next M, arery Yes, so you'll need to you'll need to work that on it. So I don't have Ive D have a wi nippling To be fair, I do get back next Monday morning. Yeah you could just come I'll pick you up at the airport. You and Kenny He'll come off. He'll come off. he's top off when He thinks he's a Scotland superstar now. He thinks he's famous. Kenny's coming through the departure Sorry, the rivals we st of. no doubt We clely runan and tattoo We have we've built Kenny into this sorty mythical figure now. he's actually travelling first class. So he's got his own drive. No. sight. So That's the thing. I might be gamed po Yeah,'d listen Everybody wants to beenie's fucking know she meant she I'm pleased say that I am Kerny' Pow. Is she buying the sausages and the steakakes Kenny's contributing very, very well to this holiday, I would say. Tell Kenny Ill com I I'm doing nothing I could bo on a flight tonight tomorrow Yeah, I made Kenny famous K lookingking Kenny looking after me. I'm sure there'll be a gift on the way but I No I was going to say ye, obbviously I'll not speak to you then You know, I was just going to ask you the same question As a person who knows football and you're very intelligent I What what are we thinking here? becausecause I listened to Stephven Nesmouth's interterview there this morning E and Sky. and the way that Stehven's talking is I think we are going to set up very defensive, and I think we're just got to try and hit the counter attack against Brazil No, a lot I think Clarark came in with a bit of criticism when they were like, Oh, what are you bringing on like Anty Rlson for and u, you know, you didn't bring on Shankland and I was like becausecause I think Steve Clark at the end was like, right Let's this one no. Yeah. let's keep this one no. and if we can mix on for S he's brilliant um I think Clark towards the last ten minutes was l right. onene know wass no bad result Let's keep let's let's keep it like this And I think if Brazil win one nil, if you were to offer Steve Clark One day to Brazil on Wednesday night he would snap your arm off for and take your chance. the first one. Th now. And take your chance on getting through on minus one with three points because you're looking at the rest of the tournament. I think our odds for getting through at this moment in time. are sitting at something like seventy, eighty percent if we I mean, that's obviously where we're sitting just now I'm But even at minus one, It should be enough because like there's there's eight out of the twelve teams who finish in third place go through. So we only need to be her than four other teams and there's going to be teams that finish on One in two points in third place So telling you right now for all those people who are who are shouting at this and been shouting at their radios and their teies to go like, you know, getting Steve Clark to go for it. Steve Clarark is not going to go for it on Wednesday night. That is just not going to happen at all. It's going to be a very, very similar setup to Friday andight I don't know if Tiernail play in might I don't know. it might put Christy out out on the left and put Min in the middle. I'm not entirely sure what hell that might. Do you think do Do you think do you think that there's a chance Be we debated it on Friday, would they go a back three and go a five close everything up there. and keep the don't keep the wing backs quite deep. I don't know because see see this Brazil team, obviously they've got like Vinicius Jior who is What are the best players in the world and cappable of doing something absolutely wild When you look at them, they're not they're not a vintage Brazil team. Yeah, they've obviously got good players. They're Brazil But theyve they haven't looked fantastic even against Haiti, I know they won three now They weren't really they didn't really kick on to be honest with you and So yeah, like I don't know. I don't know. I think he's he's going to have special sort of plans for a couple of other players, you know, they're better ones And Part for that I don't know. I don't think he goes through the back. I think he'll probably stick with the flor. And do you think he'll stick with the two center halves? or do you think Mcenna? I think McKena is now one hundred percent fit again I think you I don't know because I actually think Henry played really well on Friday night, but He likes Hanley. and to be fair, Hanley, I know he made the mistake on Friday night apart for that I thought you had I thought you had a good game and I thought he played well, guys Heyate to be on this with as well. So I don't know. Like if I was picking the team, I'd probably go McKenna and Henry And because I think they're better on the ball than Hanley Obviously Hecky comes back in it right back Well, if he's fit, I know he trained himself on well yesterday Sunday as did Louis Ferguson and I think there was one other player but I mean they don't there doesn't seem to be any major concern. You have to play hockey, I think Again, I didn't think Parson really put a foot wrong on Fridayight I thought he did all right But heck he's obviously a better player and My thinking is He probably played Hickey against Haiti on the basis that he was never going to play against Morocco and saves them for Brazil because I don't think Hicke's might be capable of playing three big matches over the course of what eleven days or whatever it was. It's Hanley, but that's a big question as well. as's Hanley because Well maybe that's it, Mbe that's it. And the thought of Venetus Jr going up against Hanley gives me cold sweats. so So maybe they do change it a bit and it's Henry and McKenna Name Yeah. honestly, I don't know. I really don't. And we're back to we're back to that old argument, Steven and we get it all the time. Who starts up front Because you'll play a alone striker O of course you will. We know that. You play you'll play Adams up frront, I think. You think playam Yeah.' be Oie Adams Dykes percent Yeah ye, Id sort of agree with that. I'm certain to I'm starting to look at maybe I feel I feel going a play against Brazil and we're got to give up a lot of the possession which people are saying and I think even Scotland's assistant manager Steen Nismouith is saying that, right? We'll probably give up most of the possession against Brazil. We need an outball, We need somebody to hold the ball up. And that's why there's two things for me The center forward has got to be able to play his back to goal and hold the ball up Right and Ganon Dke is a bulg carrier. So me personally That's the two positions I'd be looking at. How can we when we get the ball What we got to do with the ball? How we got to get up the pitch, right? And I totally agree with you, right. I'm not frightened to Brazil here becausecause Brazil have not impressed me. I think if you look at Brazil on paper of've got lot of very very good individual footballers But as a team I'm not impressed with them as a top quality team Right? So I think by the way, just just I'm just hearing somebody clip off what I said about Brazil and what you said about Brazil there and then fast forward to Scotland no Brazil six, you know. Listen, it may be. but I'll tell you what, I looked at the fixtures I thought we'd win the first one. I thought it might be it may be another goal, right? Okay D't fancy is against Maracle, right? D't fancy is And I thought if we were going to get the point fancy that against Blateo Now people can shoot you down flames only get opinion. Brazil, that Brazil You know, you look at their players the havealf get world class players As a team I've not been I've never seen a Brazilian team give the ball away as much in all my life as against Morocco in the first twenty odd Manes. I said that earlier. they were dreadful. They were giving balls away, cheap balls away. they were all over the place. They don't have a lot of for me, they don't have a lot of legs in the middle of a park So yeah. that's a big thing as well. And I think that's probably where we can get some change out them to be perfectly honest with you. I think the middle of the parks don't think it really works and what they're doing at this moment in time. Who am I to tell Carl Anchloto what works and doesn't work? I totally agree with I think we can get them with legs in the middle and that's I think I would maybe play I know I said maybe you'll play Christy out wide, but I think you need to play Christy in there and you obviously need Ferguson in there who just covers every single blady grass, to be perfectly honest with you. So you're saying that you would bring Dke back in and you would play probably Dykes up front? I think so. I think so, right? And people will maybe be shouting about You know, when they need a goal or whatever R Shanklin. and Shankl's been brilliant. I like Shanklin. I think Shanklin's a very, very clever player. I just think that maybe Looking against Brazil, set plays might be so important. dates A strong and big and good near as well gives you another threat gives you another added threat I think he can put hisself about. He's a willing runner. he'll go in chairs, he'll go and work hard I definitely think we need Ganindke I really do I think we need something to take us up the pitch and our boy can take us up the pitch. and he will not be like as much as he would respect Brazil. He will not be frightened Brazil. He'll be happy take the ball. listen he's just a natural footballer that wants to go there, show what his ability is. He's full of confidence in his own ability. I love that about the kid. So for me, he would be a must And then you look in midleaypart there and you just Who do you play off? Who's the support one All same stakes for me or items because I do agree. I don't think it'll start shinling I think he'll go with items or dkes And it's who he plays off in that what would you say finally? on the game and on Steve Clark and Scotland What would you say to people who are saying we're not being ambitious enough you know, you're saying there but like Dykes as a willing runner and stuff like that and you know, we should be playing Shanklin because he's clearly a better player. What would you say to people who claim Steve Clark is holding this Team back U No, I think I think Steve, no matter what Steve, I think Steve Clark come home with the World Cup I think some people would still find criticiser man. Yes, it frustrates you sometimes because we have this situation where everybody says the same in Scotland, right? Look at the players we've got. look at the league they're playing in and I totally get that. I really do get that U He took us to three tournaments And I know we stunanked the place out in Germany who were terrible apart for the Tartan Army, who was the only thing that saved us. And the Tartan Army's doing their job in America as usual U we're in a nice position, the fact that we're getting into the game. And even if it is a windill, we can still get there U but I would like to I don't think we've played well, right I really don't. I know what you're saying, I think we've had a lot of heart and desire, but I don't think we've played particularly well I think we've get better performances iners And I'm talking about the big players, the big players that get all the packs in the backag and everything about them. I think we've get perform better performances in us I think the Mc Tomys, McGinn's, Robertsons and people like that will need to reallyally Puff our chest out on Wednesday if we're got to get something I' H. Steve Clark. Sometimes it frustrates a life for me because I'm like every other Scotland fan. let's go on the front foot a little bit. let's get more you know, chances possession. let's get the ball up the pitch a little bit quicker That's just the way manages and he and he's got two tournaments. so it's very hard I he's not going to change. No no he's not going to change in the middle of our tournament. so that's why I expect it to be another defensive performance. hundredundred hundred percent go aad defensive And by the way It's roasting Absolutely like even just now as what. Just after seven in the morning, like I am sweating So God knows what the players are going to be like because in Miami is going to be Like a like a sauna I can tell it's roasting. Kenny just took a belly flapper off the top as it stands, as it stands. Scotland are playing Germany in the last thirty two on Monday night. which will be a half past nine kickoff UK time. So that's as it stands, we're playing gym. Now that will change obviously if we get a point if we win, obviously and even if we get beat by the odd goal, that'll change. So And and obviously there's so many other different ways of working it out. So yeah, there's actually there's a thing on the BBC website where you can like click on the knockout stage and it shows you who who you're going to I think we should I think we should just take put everything on hold as it stands. Forget that. Let's look at Wednesday night Let concentrate It greatest cliche in football. onene game at a time and this is our cup final on Wednesday nightm As right. Okay, let's get to some refereing decisions then, shall we? Lanta Estamiloc hot Okay, I did finish one nill to Morocco on Friday night and there were two big, big penalty claims for Scotland Are you thinking a first one, John McGinn John McGin's are one for me, Stephven I looked at the both of them Yes, of course, you're claiming for them all day long. If it's against you, one are you thinking you got away with? And I think that Morocco got away with the John McGinn one. Yeah because there was obviously the Scotty Tominy one as well. I do think the Scott My Tominy one would have been soft. I think I think like Tomminy was, you know, he could see He was looking looking for looking for. I think McGun I think McGun's apparently k I really do This is the thing Gordon And I'm torn between thinking, is this a good thing or is this a bad thing If you look at VAR the whole tournament It's almost like FIF have decided right? We're not really going to use FAR to be perfectly honest with you. And we're going to go with what the referees are going with in the pitch, which again, I think is fine. I've got no problem with that. However, it needs to be consistent and to be fair across the tournament Kenny has been consistent. Like even in the Kate Verde Uruguay game last night, I thought Kaate Verdy should had a penalty in the like the last minute and I was like, oh my god, that's a Stoneall penalty. And then even when I looked it back, I was like How was you not giving a penalty for that? but they stuck with a referee's decision on the patch So I can't really complain about the consistency. They just haven't really the stuff that we see on a day to day or a week to week basis in the Scotish Premiership or the Pmier Lague downside. I think both of those are getting given as penalties in the Scotish Premiionship. It goes goes back to the biggest saying now especially here in our country in domestic football They are a referee in the games And I think I think they've tried a Stop that in the Ble Cup B. I've got to look at some of the decisions, right? I think I think do you know what I've liked Steven, I've liked theule changes, right?. I think it's making the World Cup exciting. I really do. I think think it makes the it brings up the pace of the game. cororrect. there's less time wasting. Yeah. I've liked it. I really have liked it. I've liked to changes. I think there's good I think that percentage wise, I think the refereing has been not bad There are decisions that I think VR have got to. If you've got it over there and you're using it and it's the highest take of that you can get then I think that in some decisions, As much as you're going we're not letting VR referee the games that's there for a special reason. We're letting the referee on field make most of the decisions we're standing by it. I think you've got to sort of pipe up a little bit. I think the John McGinn one was surely worth that after he getting a call and he easier to say We be think clear and obvious. Why don't you go over? Svig is over right Sivig is over there And he looks at that and says, no I'misticking by my decision I'm not going to argue that fact, right? Be that's his opinion as a referee against My opinion or maybe your opinion or whatever and that's what football's about Just to not even give them the opportunity to go and see that again That was my biggest gripe. Stehven McGinn, I think he was talking to the BBC the weekend after the game and he said that John McGinn had been told by the referee that the reason they turned down the claim for the penalty because the ball was going out of play. when he was challenged U If that's the reasoning, then that's mental because that doesn't mean it's not a foul. Correct. so Yeah. there was also She Adams was brought down when he was You could argue he was denied an obvious goal scoreing opportunity. It was only yellow card that he said the up. Then we saw in the Belgium game yesterday. obviously they went down to ten men And the guy was much further back than for the Moroccan guy was on Friday night, should we have been playing against ten men Bam. It's just on the opinion of the officials into it. Listen, we're going to claim we're going to claim for every single thing. Of course you are in another country there's no doubt in that. and you're going to have a look at the refereE and then you're going to put that against Like you just did there. Oh what about Belgium You know I mean that was further but we do that in domestic football as well, don't we? The minute something happens and then you you analyze a game that happened a couple of days ago. Oh what about what happened in the Hartson Folker game? Why was that apparently and this one's not apparently and whatever. rightight? I don't I don't like getting caught up in all that. You've just got to accept decisions But I think you can accept decisions that for I keep goinging back to. the John McGinn wand is the one that sticks out for me I think we are really unlucky Not to have apparently kicked there and I think the referee should have had another look at that U but I'm not going to sit and analyze every one and say, o shouldould have been a card it should have been freak out should have been pen k. Well, unfortunately does this section is called VRWTF. so you kind of have to sit and analyze it. Well Yeah, but fortunate enough for me, I've clarified my statement by saying I think we should get a penntly kick in thest was fine m me Actually, I don't think I was as sending off either and I I for the Belgian You mind your mich c you got a par in morning I pretty much that's what's happening. Soor I just thought See the sun's gone up now. It's stars tails Sn's nearly up. By the way, you've got neighbourors looking at you What kind of Th Kenry had a few could, you'd probably got better gffin up, would you not What do you mean? Have you not been in Orlando before?
