What is the current state of the Scottish Premiership title race?
The flame-grilled Whopper from Burger King. The most food-filling burger. Is it, though? Is that... Yes, a slightly better version of you. I don't understand. Just like the new Whopper, that's juicier and tastier than ever before. Same, same, but it's different. That's my line now. Oh, sorry. Whopper never tasted so good.
What led to the chaotic managerial situation at Celtic?
Order now on the Burger King app. The Go Radio football show with Burger King. Call 0808 17 17 700. Let's go.
Good evening, this is Paul Cooney with the Go Radio football show, live on Go Radio. And also on YouTube, as you can see, just go to the button, this is Go Radio, and you'll find us. Barry Ferguson is here, and Andy Walker as well. Andy, happy New Year to you. Happy New Year to everyone, yeah. We haven't seen you since 2025.
How is Rangers reviving under Danny Röhl's management?
Not much has happened in the last week or so. Oh my goodness. I can't believe Celtic haven't got any signings in. I watched the game last night, Rangers-Aberdeen. I can't believe Rangers are above Celtic after the last couple of months and how we've spoken. But it makes for an astonishing title race. Barry, you said you would go live and vision on YouTube if Rangers were back challenging. Andy didn't think it was going to happen. You're here, second top of the table after last night.
Yeah another good victory, I thought the first half performance was really good, they tailed off a wee bit in the second half but the main objective for Rangers at this moment in time is to continue to win games and they've certainly done that, look Aberdeen weren't any great shakes but look Rangers sitting top of the league sorry second top of the league I wish they were top of the league and things are looking pretty in 2026 On Monday night I pressed you Barry and you said look Martin O'Neill should be Celtic's choice moments later it was and you said Rangers are going to win the league
Yeah, well, you put me on the spot.
That's my job, yeah. But listen, it's going to go right down to the wire. I did say that as well. I think Rangers sell taking hearts. There's a lot of football to be played. But as I said, I think it will go down to the final couple of weeks of the season. But if you'd asked me a couple of months ago, Paul, if Rangers were going to be in this position, I would have looked at you in a...
a strange way so fair play to Danny Rowe fair play to the players but as I said there's still a lot of football to be played the new set piece specialist for Rangers seems to be working going to ask Barry about it if you want to speak to Barry and Andy you know the number 0808 17 17 700 in our brand new studio Andy we went live during the show last night it was going so well we maybe should wait till later in the week the way it started there you look so fresh you've got a new wardrobe and everything you look fantastic thank you
Are Hearts the real title favorites in the Premiership?
Slater's still there yeah it's the best I've seen you look in a long time thank you very much a wee quick eight minutes in the sunbed as well so you're looking the part mate what about Martin O'Neill then Andy at your old club at Celtic it's been well 33 days an absolute shambles but Wilfred Nancey clearly that was the right decision Martin O'Neill is he is this the right thing to bring him in until the end of the season Yeah, I think when they were going to bring him in for the second time I actually thought he might get the rest of this season and one more. He seems to have an appetite for getting back into management. Obviously when he was in for a short time a couple of months ago he did really well.
And remember, this isn't a vintage Celtic team by any means. I've got to say, I'm still shocked that they've not got players in at this moment in time. They need a striker. They need a wide player. They need a defender, a central defender. So I'm really surprised they haven't done business already. Because no matter who the manager is, Celtic need players. They need improvements. how could they have got it so badly wrong though most people were saying look 7 out of 8 with Martin O'Neill the new guy coming in it's not as if he'd come from a top club he could have waited he could have found out more about Celtic about Scotland and if it's going well with Martin O'Neill why make that change it was a catastrophe well that might be too strong
