Was Steve Clarke Really the Problem? The Future of Scottish Football w/ Declan Fergus

Second time sitting down with Declan Fergus. Really good guy and talks so well about the game of football. We've been waiting for the time to get another sit down and the timing was right after Scotlands World Cup Campaign ended in going home from the group stages with a whimper and Steve Clarke stepping down. Clarke has been getting a lot of heat and in a way it is justified, but Declan's point of view is that we also need perspective on the players he has at his disposal. How good are they? Where do Scotland as a football nation go from here and what is our identity? 🔔 Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@onthespot_joshcannon?sub_confirmation=1📺 Follow On The Spot: https://www.tiktok.com/@onthespot_podcast https://www.instagram.com/onthe_spotpodcast/ https://open.spotify.com/show/2TCSEiYpvPoAoeNmTCbaXw?si=95929dfbeba54256 https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/on-the-spot/id1792410324 Follow Declan: https://www.instagram.com/declan_fergus_coaching/ https://www.tiktok.com/@declan.fergus?_r=1&_t=ZN-97bzidaZ3g3

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.
