Scottish Football Is Missing A Huge Opportunity | Charlie Knox

Who's Footballs Next Great Manager?

Football is entering a new era. Following PSG's Champions League triumph, I started thinking about where the game is heading. From Arsenal and Mikel Arteta's approach to the uncertainty surrounding Liverpool's future, football feels like it's at a turning point. For years we've known who the elite managers were. Guardiola, Klopp, Mourinho, Ancelotti and Conte shaped an entire generation of football. But who comes next? Because the truth is, nobody really knows who the next great manager will be. 🔔 Subscribe to Youtube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@onthespot_podcast?sub_confirmation=1📺 Follow On The Spot:https://www.tiktok.com/@onthespot_podcasthttps://www.instagram.com/onthe_spotpodcast/https://open.spotify.com/show/2TCSEiYpvPoAoeNmTCbaXw?si=95929dfbeba54256https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/on-the-spot/id1792410324

Scottish Football Is Missing A Huge Opportunity | Charlie Knox

Scottish football feels like it’s at a crossroads. In this episode I sit down with Charlie Knox to talk about the opportunity sitting in front of the Scottish game — from supporter culture and media, to streaming, club identity, fan ownership, coaching influences and where the game could go next. We get into whether Scottish football needs to rethink how it tells its story, why fan culture still gives the game its soul, and why this moment feels bigger than people realise. Also in this conversation: * Is Scottish football undersold? * Does the game need its own version of The Overlap? * What makes supporter culture worth protecting? * Why data and systems can never explain everything in football. Football’s not just a game — it’s spiritual Follow On the Spot: 🔔 Subscribe to Youtube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@onthespot_podcast?sub_confirmation=1📺 Follow On The Spot:https://www.tiktok.com/@onthespot_podcasthttps://www.instagram.com/onthe_spotpodcast/https://open.spotify.com/show/2TCSEiYpvPoAoeNmTCbaXw?si=95929dfbeba54256https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/on-the-spot/id1792410324

Ruben Amorim Sacked — Who Should Really Be in Control at a Football Club?

The sacking of Ruben Amorim raises a bigger question than just one decision. How much control should a football manager actually have? In this episode, I talk about why managers need real influence — especially over recruitment and squad direction — but also why that control has to be earned through trust, alignment, and results. It’s a conversation about modern football, accountability, and why so many managers are set up to fail before they’re ever truly backed. This isn’t about outrage. It’s about understanding how football is run now — and whether it really works.

Why the Narrative Feels Different for Arsenal & Man City

What's good team. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and Boxing Day. I still have no idea what day it is. I had a really interesting way of viewing the footy over the last couple days that I haven't had in years. Working in the pub on the 27th, Hibs v Hearts, Livi v Celtic and Chelsea v Aston Villa were all on but I didn't get to properly sit down and watch them. Which left me going old school and only really seeing the scores at full time. After checking out social media yesterday and today, I was quite amazed about the different narratives online compared to how I felt just seeing the scores with no other context. So this is video is about that and mainly focusing in on it between Arsenal and City. There's a deep dive into Peps post match press conference against Forest as I thought it was fascinating. He has evolved.
