Old Firm Reaction, Next Celtic Manager & Hearts to Win the League? | The Warm-Up03 Nov 202500:54:34

It’s the morning after the big game at Hampden and Steven Naismith and Kris Boyd are joined by a special guest as Charlie Mulgrew steps in for Chris Sutton for The Warm-Up. 

The team pick over the remains of the Scottish League Cup Final, covering the key flashpoints and moments. 

Should Trusty have seen red for his intrusive thoughts? Did Aasgaard deserve to walk? Was it a penalty for Rangers? And who were the stand-out performers in Celtic’s 3-1 win at Hampden?

Looking beyond Sunday’s game, the Warm-Up team discuss changing dynamics at both clubs and how long Martin O’Neill will remain at the helm. 

And, turning their eye to rampant Hearts, the team ask: what would be the bigger shock a Jambos triumph in 2026 or Leicester’s legendary English Premier League win in 2016.

Boyd & Sutton CLASH on Top 5 SPFL strikers of all time | The Warm-Up Debate12 Aug 202500:19:10

Who are the SPFL’s GOATed strikers? 
 

Kris Boyd and Chris Sutton are joined by Charlie Adam for The Warm-Up's first big debate of the season. 

 

A few special caveats are in place for this one with Boyd and Sutton OUT of the running along with Celtic legend Henrik Larsson, who is widely accepted as Scottish football’s greatest forward of all time. 

 

Several key names are in contention, with Chris Sutton identifying the man he succeeded at Celtic Park as one of his favourites.  

 

Boyd looks to his strike partners at club and international level - and in England - to make his case for one striker who ‘won’ titles for two clubs in Scotland. 

 

Adam, meanwhile, puts forward two names from the team he supported as a boy who he sees as worthy contenders. 

 

00:00 Start 

02:17 The other Sutton 

03:09 Chris on Mark Viduka 

03:59 Michael Mols - what might have been 

04:55 Kris on getting Kenny Miller match fit 

05:40 Big Bad John 

06:40 Scott McDonald 

07:07 Kyogo v Edouard 

08:18 Shankland v Morelos 

12:29 Playing for the Old Firm 

13:30 McDonald v Griffiths 

15:15 The top fives  

18:13 Behind the scenes 

18:35 And the lights go out...

Three decades on, Paul Elliott is still considered one of the best centre backs to grace Scottish football.

Now working as an equality campaigner within the game and as Charlton Athletic’s vice chairman, he also talks extensively about his two years at Celtic under Billy McNeill, where he was named Scotland’s Player of the Year and took on a Rangers side which was asserting its dominance over the Scottish game. 

Also, up for discussion is:

Kris Boyd and Chris Sutton bring you a special edition of The Warm-Up recorded hours after Russell Martin’s departure from Ibrox.

Russell Martin faces a different issue at Rangers. Will £8 million man Youssef Chermiti start to make an impact or could Russell Martin even opt to pair him in attack with former Aberdeen frontman, Bojan Miovski.

Terry Butcher: Old Firm ARRESTS, Maradona BEEF & Rangers GLORY | The Warm-Up20 Nov 202501:13:01

Kris Boyd and Steven Naismith are joined by Rangers and England legend Terry Butcher for The Warm-Up's latest big interview. 

Captain for club and country, Butcher goes back to his early days with Bobby Robson at Ipswich and charts the path that led him to Ibrox, where he became a key figure in the club’s nine-in-a-row run. 

He reveals how his career could have taken him to Old Trafford and talks about the culture shock that awaited him in Glasgow. He also explains how an early encounter with the late Davie Cooper convinced him to move north. 

Butcher’s time in Scotland was certainly eventful as he became a trusted leader under Graeme Souness, won three league titles and two league cups and established Rangers as a dominant force in Scotland and Europe. 

In the interview, he also reflects on his experiences with England, which included World Cups, bloodstained bandages and a now notorious encounter with Diego Maradona. 
And, on the subject of lingering resentment, he talks about Old Firm arrests, criminal records and why he still has beef with Frank McAvennie. 

Looking to the most recent chapters of his career the interview also covers his time as a manager, which saw him enjoy success with Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Motherwell, spells with Partick Thistle and Hibernian and as Scotland assistant. 

00:00 STARTS 
02:15 “I didn’t think I was good enough”

Playing Agony Uncle and Mrs Sutton, Special Agent | The Warm-Up 23 Jan 202600:24:37

It’s been over a month since St Mirren celebrated League Cup glory. And Chris Sutton is still waiting on his cheque and case of champers from his old Buddies. 

Answering questions from Warm-Up viewers in the latest Mailbag, Chris reflects on the role he played as St Mirren’s Mr Motivator and is asked if he would still refuse to open his curtains if they were playing in his back garden. 

In the latest show, Chris, Kris Boyd and Steven Naismith also talk about football influences, team-mates who have tried to persuade them to switch clubs and the captains who drove them to victory. 

Heart of Midlothian’s ‘new Scott Brown’ is under the microscope, as is VAR and the officials running it. 

Did Naisy nearly move to Celtic? Should we stop the clocks on time-wasting? Who is going down and who is coming up the William Hill Premiership? 

And what would have happened if Chris Sutton’s wife had told him to move to Rangers? 

All this and more in the latest Warm-Up Mailbag.

Title can be lost not won this weekend | The Warm-Up 19 Jan 202600:23:05

As Celtic and Hearts prepare for their top of the table clash at Tynecastle, The Warm-Up assembles for a special edition examining one of the tightest title races in recent memory. 

For this special show, Paul Hartley and Barrie McKay make their Warm-Up debuts alongside Charlie Adam, looking ahead to this weekend’s game and reflecting on their own experience of title run-ins. 

Paul can speak from both painful and happy memory, having come tantalisingly close to title glory with Hearts before going on to win it with Celtic under Gordon Strachan. 

Having made over a century of appearances for both Hearts and Rangers, Barrie offers insight into how this current Jambos’ side is handling the pressure, identifying one significant test which has already been passed with flying colours. 

Charlie Adam also looks to Ibrox, where a player he worked with at Everton is showing signs of growing into the role of Rangers number 9. Charlie and the team also look at the transfer window, which they believe could decide the title race, at business done and deals still to be made. 

Who do you think will lift the William Hill Premiership trophy this season? And who do you think is best positioned for the title run in? Have your say in the comments below.

Celtic, Liverpool and Scotland LEGEND Sir Kenny Dalglish on his GOAT career - The Warm-Up 02 Feb 202601:40:56

The King has arrived on The Warm-Up, as Kenny Dalglish joins Kris Boyd, Steven Naismith and the man he signed for a British transfer record as this month’s big guest. 

In a comprehensive interview, which starts with early days playing in youth teams in Glasgow and launching his career in Junior football, King Kenny talks about what drove him to become arguably the greatest player Scotland has produced. 

He talks candidly about growing up in the Lions’ Den, alongside the players who won the European Cup for Celtic, and about his relationship with legendary manager Jock Stein. 

His move south to Liverpool and how it unfolded is discussed before he talks about his time at Anfield and playing in a great Liverpool side. 

His surprise promotion to player-manager is covered as is his time in charge at Liverpool, Newcastle United and Blackburn Rovers where he sealed another historic title triumph. 

Not surprisingly he has a few stories about Warm-Up host Chris Sutton, including how his record signing fancied himself as centre half and squared up to Ian Wright! 

He talks honestly about his return to Paradise and what went wrong and his ‘move’ to Rangers as ‘Director of Football’.  

Watch the full episode as Kenny Dalglish meets Chris Sutton, Kris Boyd and Steven Naismith on The Warm-Up.

Hosts RAGE as they rank Faddy v Fergie and McGinn v Robbo | The Warm-Up09 Feb 202600:27:03

If you ever needed evidence of the quality of the SPFL, today’s Winner Stays On delivers. 

This month, the team debate the top Scottish players to have played in the SPFL - who have never played for one of the Old Firm clubs.

Who do you think are the best Scottish players to have starred in the Scottish Premiership, outside of Celtic or Rangers? Is there a glaring omission from the list? And, if you do support Celtic or Rangers, who is ‘the one that got away’?

Hearts and Motherwell capitalise on Old Firm stalemate and Sutton’s naked ambition | The Warm-Up 02 Mar 202600:45:31

Where does the William Hill Premiership stand after another extraordinary weekend and the latest Old Firm derby? 

Joined by James McFadden for the latest Warm-Up, Kris Boyd and Chris Sutton discuss the weekend’s games, why “the strangest player in Scottish football” is currently playing in the Celtic midfield and the enigmatic Ranger who turns it on for the big matches. 

The Warm-Up team also look at the managers and how they are coping with the pressure of the title race, asking if Danny Rohl really needed to get in Celtic’s business ahead of the match. 

And, with league leading Hearts in focus, Chris asks if their manager could be the weak link in the title run-in? 

Also on the agenda is “the best football side in the league” and how far the Steelmen can go before their manager inevitably moves on.

Schmeichel SNUB for Old Firm rematch, Falkirk for the cup and Faddy foils a pile-on | The Warm-Up 05 Mar 202600:22:52

The Old Firm prepare to dance again this weekend – this time in the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup. 

On a Warm-Up cup special, regular hosts Chris Sutton and Kris Boyd are joined by James McFadden to look ahead to the weekend’s ties. 

For the second week running, Ibrox again provides the venue for the Glasgow derby and, as the team explain, this is turning out to be a bigger game for Rangers manager Danny Rohl than it is for opposite number Martin O’Neill. 

The team also discuss Celtic’s selection issues, who starts in goal and exactly how they will line up as their manager tries to figure out the reason behind their slow starts and late rallies. 

Looking at the other ties, Faddy foils a pile-on as Chris and Kris take aim at an under-performing St Mirren team. They ask if the Buddies have taken their foot off the gas following their League Cup win, threatening a remarkable double. 

The team also smell an upset at East End Park, where Dunfermline face Aberdeen, discuss Falkirk v Dundee United, and give their match predictions.

Raised by Sir Bobby Robson and playing as one of the stars in a Trinidad and Tobago team which included a young Dwight Yorke, Russell Latapy was largely unknown when he first arrived in Scottish football in 1998. 

Over the next decade with Hibernian, Rangers, Dundee United and Falkirk, the little playmaker would prove to be one of the Scottish game’s great entertainers and an inspirational talisman for his clubs. 

Joining Chris Sutton, Kris Boyd and James McFadden for the latest Big Interview on The Warm-Up, Russell tells the comprehensive story of his life, from his formative years in the Caribbean, to joining Porto under the great Sir Bobby. 

He talks of his encounters with a young Jose Mourinho and Andres Villas-Boas in Portugal, of his move to Scotland and time playing under some of the game’s great characters, including Yogi Hughes and Dick Advocaat. 

The interview also covers his friendship, nights out and managerial partnership with Yorke, a possible return to Scotland and includes a carnival invite for Boydy, Sutty and Faddy.

Derek McInnes to Rangers, Scotland in Boston, and Celtic politics | The Warm-Up 15 Jun 202600:32:27

Saddle up as Chris Sutton dons his Stetson and joins us from Dallas, Texas for the latest Warm-Up special. 

The big man has developed a penchant for headwear since travelling to North America and, after proudly wearing a sombrero at the Azteca, is fittingly dressed for a visit to the Lone Star state. 

Kris Boyd joins him from Boston, where he is still coming back to earth after Scotland’s win over Haiti - and a night at the baseball with James McFadden. 

Together they look ahead to Scotland v Morocco and how Steve Clarke changes a winning team. 

They also return to the domestic front and Rangers and Hearts, with the former preparing to say farewell to Danny Röhl and pinch the latter’s manager. 

Where will the changes leave Hearts? And will Derek McInnes be able to make Rangers credible title contenders? 

And the boys also discuss the latest news at Celtic Park and the latest politics, unrest and the odd case of Martin O’Neill’s assistants.
