RGC - A Celtic Podcast

The host returned from his holiday, meaning we could finally record the end-of-season pod.
Paul and Chris talk us through their day at the cup final sponsored by Baby Guinness, it would appear. We then review the current squad and play a very sh*t version of Shag Marry Avoid. "Staying, Going, and Should Be Going" doesn't quite have the same ring to it. The outcome is that a major overhaul is on the cards, which leads us nicely into a discussion about who will carry it out.
Media reports at the time of recording suggest the two main candidates for the job are Martin O'Neill and Robbie Keane. It's fair to say that there's more enthusiasm for one candidate than the other. 
Don't get carried away, "enthusiasm" is very much a relative term.
We end the podcast with the announcement from the calm and collected Paul about who gets the honour of being our RGC of the Year.

We should be back when there's news about the "new" manager, but in the meantime, we thank each and every one of you who have downloaded and enjoyed the pod this season.
As mentioned, we now have a Substack site and we're hoping to put some content on there that hopefully you'll enjoy. There's an article from Davie Farrell that's well worth a read.

As the pod heid bummer, Paul was up that Italy over the weekend he takes the host's chair for this week's episode.
Obviously, there's a huge amount of joy about Saturday, and it appears that the utter headloss from everyone about the Motherwell game increased the desire to win on Saturday.
We discuss the game and the post-match scenes like the grumpy old men we are. 
Of course, we talk about the final on Saturday and the prospect of a domestic double.
There won't be a pod next week, so we'll be back in a couple of weeks for a season review and preview of next season.
The RGC of the week takes one on behalf of all the bed-wetters in the media

What should be another incredibly giddy recording is somewhat derailed as we react to people absolutely losing their sh*t over what was a handball. The level of outrage has taken us all by surprise.
As Paul is currently honing his spaghetti wrangling skills in Italy, Davie Farrell steps in for this recording
Davie does an excellent ex-pro explanation of what happened, and Chris calls all of Davie's pals in the media a shower of c*nts. Classic case of playing to your strengths.
We look forward to Saturday's game and have another laugh at the lads from Govan, and again, we get a former coach's explanation of the "disappointment" at Ibrox.
The collective head loss as a result of the penalty gives us a couple of  RGC contenders

What a fantastic day, actually, that was a good weekend, wasn't it? 
As you can imagine, there's a lot of giddiness to go around. Our review of events at Celtic Park takes up the first bit of the pod and we have a right good laugh at 'thaym', their manager, their captain and their fans
Then we move on to the carnage that followed in the pub afterwards, and there's a gig review from Chris and Paul and a frankly incredible choice of post-pub/pre-gig scran by our man in the West
A preview of Wednesday's game follows before the host tells of another shocking confession following hard on the heels of "Tennis Clubgate"
Finally, there was a two-horse race for RGC this week, but ultimately a man who has given Celtic fans so much joy over the years who nicks it.

Incidentally, if you want to enjoy some flute music in Ayrshire here's the link to the festival we discussed

That was the weekend that was...
Our men in the East and West were both at Easter Road on Sunday and we get their views on a game that wasn't short of incidents. A game that we should have won, easing up, ended up in a nervy last ten. It's as if Celtic have forgotten they are based in the heart disease capital of Europe.
We look forward to the Derby on Sunday and have a right good laugh at events at Tynecastle on Monday evening.
There are a few tennis puns and some chat about the POTY awards too.
In the week that ST renewals came out, we had a chat about the Collective's suggestion that fans wait until the last day before renewing. That leads into a discussion about the potential relocation of The Bhoys. Spoiler alert- We think the club have made a rip-roaring c**t of it.
As always, we are so grateful to each and every one of you who listen to the pod.
Hopefully next week's episode will be a real gidfest after positive results at Fir Park on Saturday and Celtic Park on Sunday
