The most petty and ill informed podcast in the world! Writer Tony Haggerty's new book has prompted us to take a wistful gaze back into the past - what do you miss from the bygone days of Scottish football? Bone-crunching tackles, Macaroon bars, players coming out the tunnel and jumping up pretending to header the ball? Who from Scottish football would make a great James Bond and just how wild did things get when The Pogues played in the Mucky Duck pub in Shotts? All this plus the Soft-drinks XI and the Terracing Teaser.
