Paul Cooney, Charlie Mulgrew and Barry Ferguson break down one of the most unpredictable title races in years. 

Scottish football delivered pure chaos this weekend, and the panel dive straight into it. Celtic somehow claw back from 2–0 down at Rugby Park to win it in the 97th minute — “there’s some spirit in this team” as Martin O’Neill puts it. Rangers then answer the call at Ibrox, coming from behind twice to beat league‑leaders Hearts 4–2, with Chermiti silencing critics with a hat‑trick.

Motherwell’s remarkable run continues, tightening the title race even further. With just three points separating Hearts, Rangers and Celtic, the lads debate who’s really got the mentality to go the distance.

Celtic’s Late‑Late Show

Down 2–0 at half‑time, O’Neill calls the first‑half “sloppy” and makes bold changes.

Panel debate whether Celtic can keep relying on late goals.

Rangers Bring the Thunder Back

Ibrox atmosphere described as “bouncing from first minute to last.”

Chermiti’s hat‑trick changes the narrative around him.

Danny Rohl praised for tactical tweaks and squad management.

Motherwell: The Great Disruptors

“Best footballing team in the league,” says Charlie.

Their form means they’ll shape the title race even if they don’t win it.

Hearts: Contenders or Pretenders?

Questions over sustainability: low shots on target, reliance on moments.

Injuries to key players loom large.

Caller Fireworks

Debate over Rangers’ mentality at Motherwell.

John Souttar’s defending under the microscope.

Celtic fans worried about fatigue, midfield depth, and Hattate’s form.

Manager Soundbites

O’Neill: “We can’t keep doing this every week.”

Rohl: “We are in the middle of the race — and we are ready.”

McInnes: “We put a lot into the game.”
