    Episode 19 - Jamie Borthwick

    On this week's episode, Lee McLennan and Jamie Durent are joined by STV sports reporter Jamie Borthwick for his pod debut.
    We start this week with Scotland (where else?) and the build-up to the opening game of Euro 2024 against Germany. There's injury scares, selection quandaries and low or lofty expectations for the tournament itself.
    Given his patch primarily being in Edinburgh Jamie B walks us through what the future looks like for Hearts and how impressive their summer recruitment has been, as well as an intriguing few months ahead for Hibernian under David Gray and the Black Knight group.
     
    Finally we touch on Jamie B's route into journalism - as if one journalist on the pod wasn't enough - and what his role entails in the modern industry.

    Special Episode 17 - Highland football breakdown

    Special Episode 17 - Highland football breakdown

    In this special episode, Jamie Durent and Lee McLennan assess the differing fortunes of the two teams either side of the Kessock Bridge, Ross County and Caley Thistle.
    The Staggies survived in comfortable fashion, beating Raith Rovers in a two-legged Premiership play-off, and gave the manager's job to club favourite Don Cowie. We discuss how key Simon Murray and Yan Dhanda have been to their fortunes, the logic behind giving Cowie the job permanently and what areas they need to address in the sumer.
    In the Highland capital, things have been much less rosy for Caley Thistle. Relegated to the third tier for the first time in 25 years, the club created headlines for all the wrong reasons in the aftermath by announcing they were shifting their training base 136 miles away to Kelty in Fife.
    Jamie and Lee break down this ever-evolving situation, the fan uproar it has understandably created and what the future of the club could look like.As always, subscribe wherever you get your podcasts from and follow us on X for latest updates.
