  • Peter Grant | Better Than Seville? 🍀 Hearts Need to Stop Moaning - The Best Team Won The League

    Peter Grant | Better Than Seville? 🍀 Hearts Need to Stop Moaning - The Best Team Won The League
    May 21 2026
    Peter Grant joins Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston after Celtic’s incredible title triumph following one of the wildest races in years. With Martin O’Neill returning under huge pressure and somehow dragging Celtic over the line, the big question is raised: Was this actually a greater achievement than reaching Seville? The lads discuss how Celtic looked out of the race at one stage, how Hearts became favourites, and why the relentless pressure of the title run may have been even tougher than a cup journey. There’s also debate over whether Celtic won the title through mentality and experience… or whether Hearts let it slip when it mattered most. Peter reflects on Martin O’Neill’s influence, Neil Lennon’s connection to his former manager ahead of Hampden, and what Celtic still need to improve despite winning the league. Another emotional, funny and passionate Frankly Speaking packed with big opinions and brilliant football insight. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Vote here 👇 https://scottishpodcastawards.scot/spotify-listeners-choice-shortlist/ Andy Ritchie joins Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston for a fascinating and emotional look back on one of Scottish football’s great “what if?” stories. Once considered one of the brightest talents in the country, Andy reflects on becoming Scottish Player of the Year while playing part-time for Morton, even fixing roads the very day he collected the award. He tells the incredible story of finishing second only to Paolo Rossi in Europe’s Golden Boot standings, yet feeling overlooked because he played outside the spotlight. There are brilliant stories throughout, from his complicated relationship with Jock Stein, who released him before later trying to bring him back, to addressing claims he was lazy and nicknamed “The Idle Idol”. Andy also opens up about missing out on the World Cup through Scotland’s old committee selection system, leaving football before the age of 28, his mental health struggles, and later returning to Celtic as chief scout, where he played a key role in bringing Paul Lambert to the club from European champions Borussia Dortmund. Funny, honest and packed with incredible football stories, this is a remarkable episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
