Superscoreboard · SCOTLAND'S WORLD CUP DREAMS HANGING BY A THREAD | THURSDAY 25TH JUNE · 25 Jun 2026 podcast

Then I won't give up the cause.

I think me and Gordon and Andrew are here hoping and praying that that team qualifies for the next round.

So, listen...

I expected us to be in this position.

When you're facing Brazil and you're facing Morocco, six and seven or whatever it is, five and six in the world rankings, I was expecting us to qualify third.

So the job ain't over yet and hopefully we get another bite of the cherry and we can get ourselves into this next round.

I would imagine so I think he's spoken about it in the presser about bringing in a Scottish core but I think that's

It's possible they'll be looking in a bigger, wider market with Rangers and their budgets and their spend than Hearts have been doing.

Obviously, Hearts have a model under Tony Bloom where they buy low and sell high.

I think Rangers would love to do that, but I think when Rangers come chapping it...

clubs as doors for players then the price is going to go up so it's like what you want and what you get are two different things but it certainly seems that Derek's going to go off the kind of a platform that he had at heart to go for that Scottish goal I think it's safe to say that he's got to have a big say in who comes in the building am I right in saying that they're giving him the title of manager not head coach yeah he's manager which

Knowing the club inside out.

obviously gives you a little bit of grace period with the fans but we all know what the old firm are all about and it's putting silverware in the trophy cabinet I think Derek actually said that in his presser that yeah it's all fine and dandy me being here and being an ex-Rangers player etc but what's going to keep me in the building

is winning trophies and he mentioned domestically first and then obviously trying to conquer Europe being a second plan B type of thing further down the line but I totally understand where he's coming from you know he's got to get Rangers back challenging for trophies I'm not a big believer in that he's a Rangers man he knows the club he knows this he knows the tea ladies etc it's all about winning and at top level football it's all about putting trophies in the cabinets and Martin O'Neill did that for Celtic last year Derek needs to this year coming up needs to get silverware

What do you make of that?

Yeah, he's mentioned it a few times, three or four times.

The word does win.

That's what he wants to do.

He's not saying it's a... You get a lot of managers who say, you know what, trust the process.

It's going to be a one-year, two-year, three-year, four-year plan.
