Old Firm Facts

Concrete Jungle Old Firm Disclaimer


Listen Later

The New York Times has won 132 Pulitzer Prizes in its illustrious 170-year history, but it's only ever published one disclaimer involving the words 'Old', 'Firm' and 'liquidation'.

New York Times Chief Soccer Correspondent Rory Smith tells Adam about explaining Celtic and Rangers to the world, working with Rafa Benitez, Steven Gerrard's managerial future, English football's view of the SPFL, Scotland's place in the football landscape, 'the cult of the transfer', how Jordan Henderson is tackling online abuse, who benefits from Messi's PSG move and the time an England player's dad threatened to shoot him.

Dundee United fan Laura Costello helps to facilitate a Mental Health Awareness course which has been attended by hundreds within Scottish football, and also runs women's recreational sessions with Dundee West FC. She discusses Tam Courts' impact at Tannadice, United's draw against Celtic, the club's academy setup, why football needs more empathy, the impact of Scotland's World Cup 2019 appearance on women's football in the country and the advice she would give footballers regarding social media.

Adam puts questions from Twitter to his guests, shares some classic unconvincing excuses and writes a heartfelt apology on behalf of Bruno Fernandes.
