John, Robbie and Scott are joined by Michael for a busy show with plenty of quality football chat.

We kick off by discussing how the Scottish teams got on in Europe with their being mixed fortunes. Rangers were the only ones who won but there was an encouraging performance by Aberdeen in Germany.

Something that we've bemoaned for a while is the lack of youngsters getting regular minutes in the Scottish Premiership. In particular we focus on the lack of Scottish youngsters playing regularly in the top flight and discuss why this might be. There is chat about identity, Director of Football role in Scotland and much more.

Robbie guides us through a quick review of Scotland's defeat against England in the Nations League. We discuss the contract given to Pedro Martinez Losa and hopefully a bright future under him.

To round off the show we take a look at the weekend action as St Mirren continue to impress, referees don't and Aberdeen get their first league win of the campaign.

Regulars John, Erin and Scott are joined by new regular Robbie for the latest episode. Returning guest Graeme joins us as well as debutant Jenna.

There is plenty to discuss but we start off by calling out the abuse that Erin has got recently for appearances elsewhere. Remember if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all.

European adventures are the focal point at start of the football chat with us discussing how the teams will do and whether they will progress. We reflect on results last week which put them all in with a decent chance.

This integrates with some of the weekend action as we discuss goal of the week and impressive performances from the likes of Ross County, Motherwell and St Mirren.

Graeme brings up the rumour about Shankland moving to Saudi Arabia which leads us to an interesting game of higher or lower.

Our new weekly headline feature sees some good ones provided. Feel free to get involved on Twitter if you have one of your own.

To conclude the podcast we discuss the article on fanzine SIWY and their anti Youtube sentiment which leads to some interesting talking points.
