The Fantasy Fitba Pod

It's 2024, it's our 4th year, and it's time for our 1st pod of the New Year. We look ahead at the Scottish Cup this weekend and a few possible upsets on the horizon, celebrate Curtis Main's triumphant return to Scottish football (closely followed by Greg Stewart LIVE ON AIR), and give you our team of the season...so far. Lots and lots to cover, including the ever inflating price of Freddos.

After a month's hiatus for one half of this Pod to get marred 🎩 we're back post-International break to discuss Scotland's heroics, practice our German, and break down what's been a typically turbulent first couple of months in (soon to no longer be named) the Cinch. Enjoy this proverbial feast for your ears ahead of GW9.

Well, here we go again. The summer break has been and gone. A Premiership team has already embarrassed itself in the League Cup. Another has shamed itself in Europe. It's the start of August and the new season is mere DAYS away. It's time to pick those Fantasy Football Scotland squads folks ⏰ join us as we jump from ground to ground, from position to position, and give our now esteemed, four-seasons-and-counting analysis of what's to come in 2023/24. Buckle up because the Fantasy Fitba Pod is back!

I couldn't be bothered writing this description so I got ChatGPT to do it instead:The Fantasy Fitba Pod is back for another episode, and this time we're talking all about the upcoming split!With the split just around the corner, it's time to start thinking about how you're going to use your wildcard. Do you go for a big gamble and bring in some of the top players from the top half of the table? Or do you play it safe and stick with the players who have served you well so far?Don't miss out!Here are some funny things we might say on the show (we said none of these things):"The split is like the fantasy football equivalent of the Hunger Games.""If you don't use your wildcard wisely, you'll be left behind in the dust.""Don't be afraid to make some big changes to your team. This is your chance to make a statement.""The split is a time for bold moves and big risks. So go out there and have some fun!"

It's our first pod of 2023 (we know, we know) but we're back with a bang, and we may or may not be wearing trousers. We climb aboard the manager merry-go-round, breakdown the numbers behind the seamless introduction of VAR in Scotland (ahem), and whet our appetites for the split by surveying the league landscape and looking at some of the teams in the most tantalising spots. We're back baby, and we're Cinch'ing.

Well, it's been a while...so we've got PLENTY to cover. With that in mind, we will keep this short and sweet and encourage you to dive right in for a Cinch quarter-season review starring Big Myk, Shank, and The Duk 😎

The man with more appearances on the pod than any other - our very own Billy McNeill - joins us for Episode 55 of the Fantasy Fitba Pod. That's right ladies and gentleman...Mr Craig Geoghegan is back for another season. We get the Specs View™️ on all the latest happenings in the Cinch and what it means from a Fantasy Football Scotland perspective. We talk Jack Dross, the bouncing Buddies, striker conundrums, and of course the upcoming Old Firm.

The summer break has been and gone, and it's now time for...THE NEW SEASON! There's already been more drama than your average episode of Love Island, so that can only mean that the Cinch is once again upon us. We discuss some slightly controversial changes to Fantasy Football Scotland, review all the teams handled their business over the past months, and run through the all important first drafts of our 22/23 FFS squads. Buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride!
