It seems crazy to say it but John McGinn could be LEFT OUT vs Haiti

Scotland's World Cup bow after 28 years in the wilderness is now just days away - and Robert Grieve and Bill Leckie are thinking the unthinkable on The Set Piece sponsored by ScotMid. That's because four-goal showings in pre-tournament friendlies against Curacao and Bolivia have convinced Robert that even the starting spot of Tartan Army talisman John McGinn isn't safe for the showdown vs Haiti in early hours of Sunday morning. He reckons the dilemma is a stark one for Scotland's most successful manager - between McGinn and ONE other Tartan Army hero when it comes to starting against the Haitians. That apart, the boys examine the simmering row between Norway and Scotland over a cancelled closed-door friendly and give a fascinating behind-the-scenes insight into Clarke's preparation for the main event Learn more about your ad choices.

Scotland players are already RAVING about Findlay Curtis - is World Cup his time?

The Set Piece sponsored by ScotMid is at the World Cup to follow Scotland on their journey in North America. Robert Grieve and Bill Leckie discuss the main talking points ahead of the final warm-up game against Bolivia, including how Rangers starlet Findlay Curtis could become the new Tartan Army hero. Haiti beat New Zealand 4-0 to send Steve Clarke's men a warning and Robert was there in person to watch the game and he breaks down how our first Group C opponents looked in action. Billy Gilmour's injury has hit the camp hard and his absence could lead to a crucial role change for one star in the team. The dup also predict the line-up to face Bolivia this weekend.

Celtic boss Martin O'Neill deserves a statue but he ISN'T right for permanent Hoops job

A chaotic Scottish domestic season has come to an end - but there's still so much for Bill Leckie and Robert Grieve to get their teeth into on The Set Piece sponsored by ScotMid. Robert was first with the big news on Saturday evening that Lawrence Shankland was swapping Hearts for Rangers - so it's only right that the guys start by running the rule over every facet of that transfer, not least where exactly the Jambos go from here. But there's weighty matters to consider on the other side of the city too, where Robert and Bill reckon Martin O'Neill deserves a statue but the Hoops would be making a mistake if they decided the 74-year-old should become the next permanent manager of Celtic. That apart, they rake over St Mirren's Premiership survival - and ask if Oli McBurnie has a point after Steve Clarke snubbed Hull City's £200m goal hero from his Scotland World Cup squad.

Celtic boss Martin O'Neill has let himself down badly on pitch invasion and it's a terrible look for Hoops

Bill Leckie and Robert Grieve are back on The Set Piece sponsored by ScotMid to look back at the final weekend of the Premiership season. Celtic saw-off Hearts in a thrilling title decider but much of the conversation since the game has centred around the chaotic pitch invasion at Celtic Park. Hoops boss Martin O'Neill had his say on the matter on Monday and the guys reckon he has let himself down BADLY. Plus, how should Hearts react to a difficult day and should they let the situation go? There's a look ahead to Saturday's Scottish Cup Final between Celtic and Dunfermline and the big Premiership play-off between St Mirren and Partick Thistle. The Scotland squad is out for the World Cup too but should 43-year old Craig Gordon be Steve Clarke's No1 when things kick-off in the USA? Learn more about your ad choices.
