  1. 3D AGO

    Steve Clarke announces Scotland squad for the 2026 World Cup

    We didn't think there would be many surprises, but that doesn't mean there aren't any talking points. Ross Stewart and Findlay Curtis' inclusions, Lennon Miller's exclusion, three right-backs, five centre-backs and centre-forwards, and three keepers who aren't playing. What does it all mean? Also on the agenda, Clarke's contract, as he says it will be clear before the tournament starts. Commentator, creator and host Andy Bargh is joined by fellow commentator Calum Brown and Gavin Noon from the Scotland's Coefficient website. Thanks for listening! Learn more about your ad choices.

    Qualities, context and clamour: The strikers available to Steve Clarke and their differences

    Creator and host Andy Bargh welcomes UEFA B licensed analyst and coach Dougie Anderson along with commentator Calum Brown to chat about the striking options for Steve Clarke this summer. If we assume Adams, Dykes and Shankland will go, who else has staked a claim for a place and what do each of them offer, as well as the ones cemented in Clarke's thoughts? In correlation with Dougie's insightful Twitter thread, we delve into what each of them are good, and not so good, at. Thanks for listening.
