Summary

Hugh Woozencroft is joined by Gregor Robertson, Tom Clarke and Matt Dickinson. The Times’ Scottish Football Correspondent joins us from the off to discuss Rangers’ title win after a long journey back from the fourth tier of Scottish football. Steven Gerrard has impressed massively north of the border, but could he soon make his way to the north west? Fulham became the latest team to topple Liverpool at Anfield as the defending champions’ home form stretches to six losses in a row. How far is Scott Parker’s stock rising with this return to form? It seems like every episode this season has included a conversation on VAR and this is no different with the latest handball change. Manchester United won the derby, but was Luke Shaw the real winner after his MOTM performance? Is he now England’s best choice in that position for the Euros? We look at what your team’s best or worst run of form, given Manchester City’s 21 games unbeaten and Liverpool’s current plight at Anfield.

0:00.0	Hello, this is the game football podcast from the Times, I'm Hugh Wasn't Croft, and well
0:05.7	football continues to throw up plenty for us to discuss. Today, Rangers win their first
0:10.7	Scottish title in a decade in style, while he's going to soul showers dominance over
0:15.3	Pep Guardiola keeps astounding, full of giving themselves a huge lifeline at the bottom
0:21.4	of the Premier League as well. We will ask, do you really need to change the offside
0:26.1	rule, and what is your club's ultimate run? Help me through all of that today, Matt Dickinson,
0:31.6	Tom Clark and Gregor Robertson. Good morning, gentlemen. How are you?
0:34.9	Very well, Hugh. Thank you. Well, little bit jaded. I've worked across the weekend and ended
0:39.3	up watching nine matches in total from Friday night through to Sunday. So, yeah, whether
0:45.0	that will translate into good analysis on this podcast, we'll wait and see, but I definitely
0:49.7	covered all the bases. I started with Huddersfield against Cardiff on Friday night, which was not
0:54.1	the most entertaining of the games. Neil, Neil. Did anyone know Yaya Sonogo, formerly
0:58.7	of Arsenal, is now at Huddersfield? I did, yeah, I did, yeah. The winner, man himself.
1:03.1	You missed a penalty. Poor, poor bugger. You missed a penalty. And did, did, did Lincoln
1:07.8	get back to winning weight? They did, they did, they did. They beat crew three, Neil, very
1:12.9	good performance. So yeah, back on track, back on track. Good to hear, good to hear. Maybe
1:18.0	not a title win just yet for Lincoln. You never know by the end of the season. One thing
1:21.4	that is already certain, though, up in Scotland, it's an incredible title win for Rangers.
1:26.2	They lifted the Scottish Premiership for the first time in 10 years. Celtic failed to
1:30.8	be Dundee United, which sealed the inevitable. Frankly, it is a first title as a manager
