John, Jeff and Josh are joined by football author Shareef Abdullah.

There is chat about his recent book 'Five in a Row' about Scotland at Italia 90.

The inspiration behind Shareef's decision to write the book and favourite memories of the tournament are explored.

We reflect on the strength of our squad back then with there being some top players who never even made it to the tournament.

Scotland start their upcoming campaign with a double header away to Denmark and Belarus. There is discussion around the squad and whether there were any glaring omissions.

This leads to a slightly heated debate about certain players.

The podcast was recorded on the night of deadline day which was typically finished before some of the biggest deals were finalised.

We finish off by discussing some of the weekend action, European draws and some quick fire questions for Shareef.
