Andy DixonHOST
There we go.
Andy DixonHOST
English fifth tier, right? There's a massive difference between English fifth tier and the Scottish Premiership, right? It's a better, it's a more intense and a higher standard of football in Scotland, right? Regardless of what Sky will tell you, regardless of what these people that support these English clubs that think, oh, my gran could win the SPL and all this nonsense, right? It's a standard.
Andy DixonHOST
And Mendy, at times, he's not been up to this standard.
Andy DixonHOST
He's...

Gavin FlemingHOST
I would be surprised if it's maybe a cheap punt that we've taken, mate, and it's maybe one that is going to go wrong.
Andy DixonHOST
All right, we're talking about this, is that how has... how different is the second tier in America compared to Europe? Even the game in America compared to the game in Europe as well.
Andy DixonHOST
So we're talking about what level is the second tier in America and where does it realistically fit in, right? And we talked about, we did mention it with Mendele earlier on, is that Where does this genuinely, where does he fit in regards to the SPL or SPFL? And where does, where would this, what is it called now? What is the second tier? It's not Nassau, is it? Because that's the old one.
Andy DixonHOST
I
John McInallyHOST
I don't really, I just work in radio and talk nonsense.
John McInallyHOST
we're going to talk about the Aberdeen game on the review show what a three points for the Bairns three wins in a row first time we've done that since 2007 in the Premier League top 16 couldn't even manage that John McGuinn talked about that yesterday we didn't manage that last season, we've now done, Aberdeen, Kilmarnock, and the High Bees as well, so, brilliant win for the Bairns, up at Petaudry, and that's unbeaten in five against Aberdeen, four, or five now against Aberdeen, and a great start, John McGlynn, has never been beaten by Aberdeen, love that, love that, so brilliant result, for the Bairns, up at Petaudry, and, We're obviously going to talk about on Sunday.
John McInallyHOST
I'll wait till Ross is back.
John McInallyHOST
We'll talk about the Cobb versus Foundation stuff.
TerenceGUEST
But like Senter could have given up 10 and 15 shots to...
TerenceGUEST
most of the teams in the SPL, and I'm not disrespectful to any of the teams in the SPL, but that's absolutely ridiculous that Celtic are allowing teams to have shots at goal 15, 16, 17 times in a game.
TerenceGUEST
This is a game that Celtic are meant to be dominating apparently, but oppositions are having so many pots at goal.
TerenceGUEST
Even in the 7-1 against Hearts, where yes, that was an excellent performance, Hearts had the same amount of shots and goals as Celtic apparently in the game which is again hard to believe but you know I just
Neil ForsythGUEST
I think he covers so much ground, but I can understand him not getting into that midfield three.
Neil ForsythGUEST
But to have him coming off the bench in the SPL as a centre mid is brilliant.
Neil ForsythGUEST
And I thought...
Neil ForsythGUEST
Yoro was great as well, although we do need to discuss why exactly he stopped running when he got three on goal in the second half.
Tam McManusGUEST
There was 43,000 Hibs fans there.
Tam McManusGUEST
and there was about 3,000 Livingston fans and we'd beat Celtic and Rangers to get there but we'd a very very young team and I think on the day we just froze a wee bit because of the pressure Did you get there and think we've won it? Maybe subconsciously I think you beat Celtic and Rangers but Livingston were a good side they were in the Premier League David Hayes was the
Simon HoustonHOST
manager I'm sure Bobby Wilson told the story about in the days before the Cup finally said to the players don't do anything daft as far as no daft haircuts and anything and then did Bruno turn up with a mic Mike in the eye because we had
Tam McManusGUEST
it was funny because we had a deal with Tony and Guy in Edinburgh that we'd all get free haircuts and so we'd all get in and get the highlights and all that and Bruni, aye because Bobby says stay out of hairdressers do not turn up with a stupid haircut and the Saturday Bruni comes in with a mohawk that's what that Bobby's on mental but eh Aye, I really, really liked Bobby.
DavidPANELIST
Can you imagine how embarrassing it is to think, oh, Falkirk away is a tough game? What? Absolute nonsense.
DavidPANELIST
So, yeah, I mean, the reality is that the Scottish Premier League is full of garbage.
DavidPANELIST
So, yeah, I don't buy that particular argument.
DavidPANELIST
And if we were properly coached, we would have won all of our games this season.
Stephen McGowanPANELIST
So there's always massive money going towards them.
Stephen McGowanPANELIST
And if the broadcasters, the truly big broadcasters, get those products on board, they're looking to say, do we need the Scottish Premier League? Do we need the Belgian League? Do we need what's happening in Portugal? I'm not sure.
Stephen McGowanPANELIST
And that's the biggest challenge for domestic leagues, being different and being relevant.
Stephen McGowanPANELIST
And that's why I think in the case of the SPFL, they probably do need to embrace the mayhem to just say, we're a little league of a big attitude and a big personality bias.
Paul John DykesHOST
You need to be ready for the moment where something, an opportunity presents itself.
Paul John DykesHOST
He said there was a broad agreement between the SPL and SFA saying, Dermot sitting in David Murray's house.
Paul John DykesHOST
I mean, back in those days.
Paul John DykesHOST
Imagine capturing that on your page.
Daniel CawHOST
Thomas says, full-time foreign refs can prove everything immediately.
Daniel CawHOST
The Machine says too many refs are fast-tracked into the SPL and their egos have shot through the roof, especially that big lad at Easter Road.
Daniel CawHOST
Andrew says referees really are quite bonkers.
Daniel CawHOST
The sooner robots come in, the better.
AndrewHOST
I don't have the exact figure there, but with there being more of a highlights package and radio live stuff, it will be a different deal entirely.
AndrewHOST
um but the key words in there is flexibility now graham i'm gonna start with yourself on this um we've always felt that scottish football hasn't been has been undersold um especially going right back to the the late 90s when we had the kind of fiasco the voting fiasco for the spl channel um which kind of never came to be we had to go crawling back to sky and had to accept a lesser deal I was in London, the London branch for the Aberdeen game.
AndrewHOST
Obviously, it must have been about five, six weeks ago now.
AndrewHOST
And when we went to one of the bars near London Bridge, and then a couple of other bars as well, they were showing the Dundee Derby on Sky Sports, which you think to yourself, wow, it's actually amazing to see that most pubs in London are showing the Dundee Derby.
