Keeping this description short and concise, just like tonight's pod. The gorgeous Greek bags a hattrick and 69 points for Scobie whilst he's at it. A round-up of Scotland's endeavours, which FFS app features should come and go in 22/23, and John looks forward to his first Aberdeen victory of the season; well, the lagers anyway 🍺

"Alexa, play Happy Birthday by Stevie Wonder" 🎊 Welcome fans and friends to our 50th episode - a rip roaring birthday celebration featuring pod hat-trick hero Mr Gregor Smith. Thanks for joining us week in, week out, for our distinctly average patter. We appreciate the support immensely. We get stuck in to Scottish Cup Semi-Final action, throw caution to the wind and rethink Part 2 (when it had all been going so well), get quizzed by resident quiz master John, and generally just say the word fifty or the number 50 as many times as possible in 60 minutes.

It's been a while, folks. We've had a manager merry go round in the Cinch, with the return of some familiar old faces in McGhee and Robinson, and Goodwin crossing the Dee to take the reigns at Pittodrie. So, naturally, we had to name this episode after new Alloa manager BRIAN RICE folks! We round up February, look ahead another DGW and a possible bench boost opportunity, and discuss the ever nearing split.

We start 2022 with YET ANOTHER live pod, this time down in the Big Smoke at John's gaff. We bounce back from the winter break and discuss cup upsets, an avalanche of transfers, and - dare we say - the rise of the lower half of the league. Beers, banter, and Bumble. Do we have an exciting 2022 to look forward to in the Cinch? You better believe it.

It's the FFP Christmas Special and where else would be recording from? Gerry's shed, of course. We chew the fat with the Gaffer and take the opportunity to review the season...so far! With the Winter break now upon us, we look back on the past 6 months of action and give each of the teams a grade 💯

Well, we recorded this one far too late in the evening for a witty description but I can confirm that despite rumours to the contrary, no rules have been broken with regards to Covid restrictions and - I repeat - there was NOT a party. It was simply a business meeting and perhaps there was cans and cheese. Was there social distancing? You decide for yourself. We unpick the first two weeks of December's footballing feast.

Scotland beating Denmark + Hibs beating Rangers + County beating Hibs + Hearts beating United + United being Aberdeen + Saints losing a cup game + Motherwell looking good again + St Mirren...well, drawing. It's all a bit much to keep up with 🤯 Well, we try our very best an unpick the month that was November.

We've only gone and bloody cinch'ed it! After a 3 week hiatus we return with a bottom to top review of the league as the quarter way point in the season sails past us. Stragglers being cut loose at the bottom of the league, I hear you ask? Think again. Champion contenders pulling away from their rivals? Aye, that'll be right. We've more storylines than an episode of River City and more cinch'ing than you can shake a stick at. Sit back and enjoy the drama.

New show, new rapid intro. We're going to guess that you know exactly what we're all about by now so let's get right in to it! And by it, we mean a quick recap of (another) famous international footballing weekend for Scotland, a recap of all the action in the Cinch - who may or may not be our new sponsors - two weeks ago, whilst looking forward to a mouth watering month of fixtures to come. Oh, and John pulls the trigger on his wildcard. And gets engaged. So much to cover, so little time...

We're back with a bumper episode featuring none other than Gregor "The Statistician" Smith - back by very popular demand. Ever wondered how many of those nifty new bonus points have been dished out to the top players in the league? Mulling over the vast range of full back options at our disposal this season? And are you wondering if Gregor's ever come off the bench and popped one in from range? We'll answer all that and more this week. Promise.
