S12E57 Taxi Sunday & Cup Final Preview

Scottish Football Forums Podcast

It's another Women's Football Special as John B and Dave are joined by two Clare's, ex-Rangers player Clare Gemmell and Celtic podcaster Clare Wilde of 90 minute Cynic.

We review what was a dramatic ending to the SWPL1 title race that were played out at Ibrox and Celtic Park, an incredible statement in itself for the Women's game. In a three-way battle for the title, it looked as though Celtic were about to become Champions for the first time, but Lauren Davidson snatched an injury time winner to wrestle the title from their grasp, and also take the crown back from Rangers who were also in the hunt. It meant that the taxi taking Fiona McIntyre and the trophy to Celtic Park was rerouted to Ibrox, but to hand it to Glasgow City who claimed a 16th title, which is considered their sweetest success. Dave spoke to Leanne Ross and Hayley Lauder at full time to gauge their reaction.

The rest of the league season is then rounded off where Hearts made some great strides by finishing fourth, Aberdeen ended a troubled season with the announcement of looking for a full time manager, and there was a battle to avoid the relegation playoff between Dundee United and Hamilton that went to a final day shootout between the two sides. We also speak about the importance of all sides in the league investing to try and close the gap on the big Glasgow three.

All thoughts then turn to Hampden for Sunday's Scottish Cup Final between Celtic and Rangers. Can Celtic make up for the disappointment of last weekend by retaining the Cup they beat Glasgow City to win this time last year? Can Rangers compensate missing out on Champions League football by adding a first ever Scottish Cup to the Sky Sports League Cup they collected in December? What is certain is that there will be a good crowd heading to the National Stadium for the big game.
