It’s Brendan Rodgers out, Martin O’Neill at Celtic - not exactly a surprise, but an eyebrow-raiser all the same. Jim Burke gives his view of the latest developments.

Seb Stafford-Bloor is back on the pod to tell us everything we need to know about the new Bayern Munich hero who’s named after not but two Simpsons characters.

We speak to Michael Graham about whether the story of the season so far Sunderland can stay the course and avoid any sort of drop-off.

Elsewhere, we have news of Aberdeen making an appointment that will be noted by football trivia fans everywhere, an update about the Boxing Day fixtures that is either good or bad depending on how much you like spending time with your family, and we’ll run you through a stacked set of Tuesday fixtures.
