Former Category One referees Steve Conroy and Des Roache join Frank and Simon for a candid look at the state of Scottish refereeing.

They discuss why VAR is causing growing frustration, why Scotland continues to be overlooked for major international appointments, and whether officials are falling behind at the top level.

There’s also their verdict on the weekend’s big decisions, questions around whether the current system is working, and honest insight into leadership, coaching and confidence within the game.

Steve reflects on the pressures of refereeing in Scotland, addresses being a Celtic fan and why it never impacted his performances, and explains why he was trusted with only one Old Firm match. Des adds his own perspective on the scrutiny, personalities and demands that come with officiating at the highest level.

A proper behind-the-scenes look at refereeing in Scotland.

Frank and Simon react to the latest talking points around Celtic.

Frank makes a bold claim about a Rangers player he believes would improve the current Celtic team.

There’s also discussion around criticism of Martin O’Neill, and whether Andy Robertson could ever return to Celtic.

Another lively Frankly Speaking with strong opinions and plenty of debate.

Anas Sarwar joins Frank and Simon for a lively and funny conversation during the Scottish election campaign, with plenty of light relief along the way.

He tackles the football question everyone wants answered, reveals his long-running obsession with Championship Manager, and shares the brilliant story of being advised not to waste money signing a young Lionel Messi.

There’s also his take on Donald Trump, why he thinks America could adopt Scotland as their World Cup team, and how he plans to persuade voters to move away from the SNP and Reform UK.

Plus, a great story involving Frank Bruno in the dentist’s chair.

Potholes, politics, campaign pressure and plenty of laughs, showing a very different side to one of Scotland’s best-known political figures.
