In this episode of The Go Radio Football Show, Paul Cooney is joined by Award Winning Journalist Mark Guidi and Rangers Legend Barry Ferguson.

This episode drops listeners right into one of the most chaotic, entertaining, and drama‑packed weeks in Scottish football. The trio break down a whirlwind of transfer twists, injury blows, managerial shake‑ups, and the ever‑tightening title race.

From Kyogo’s will‑he/won’t‑he Celtic saga to Rangers’ early transfer strikes, plus Hearts’ unexpected grip on the top spot, this episode is a rapid‑fire blend of insight, debate, and classic Go Radio Football Show energy.

Kyogo Says No (For Now)

Celtic’s pursuit of Kyogo hits a wall as the striker appears set to stay at Birmingham.

The panel debate whether he’d have transformed Celtic’s attack—and whether the door is really closed.

Rangers Move Early in the Window

Two under‑21 internationals are on the brink of signing.

Barry Ferguson breaks down their profiles and where they fit into Danny Rohl’s system.

Expectation of more arrivals, especially in midfield and attack.

Injury Hammer Blow at Ibrox

Barron ruled out for up to 12 weeks with a knee ligament injury.

Sterling also sidelined until late January.

What this means for Rangers’ midfield balance and title push.

Martin O’Neill Returns (Again)

O’Neill’s second comeback in two months sparks debate about tactics, squad fit, and whether he’ll revert to a back four.

Who leads the line for Celtic this weekend?

Title Race: Three‑Way Chaos

Hearts remain top and are earning respect.

Mark Guidi argues 83–85 points wins the league—and doubts Celtic or Rangers can hit that consistency.

Predictions fly, callers weigh in, and the tension builds.
