Libero 066 | Celtic And Rangers On The Brink... Is The Old Firm Dying?

<p>The rule of thumb in Scottish football is that if one Old Firm club is doing badly, then the other is doing well. So what happens when both Celtic and Rangers are both in troubled times concurrently? With Brendan Rogers axed as Celtic boss shortly after the departure of Russell Martin from Ibrox, a Hearts team powered by the analytics of Tony Bloom are top of the Scottish Premiership. It seems there has never been a more likely time for an outsider to end Glasgow's hegemony north of Hadrian's Wall, but how have the Old Firm clubs found themselves in such a perilous position? When did buying 'Championship jobbers' stop being good enough? Has the obsession with beating each other hindered their ability to succeed in Europe? Much to discuss for Jack Pitt-Brooke, John Brewin and Rory Smith.</p><br><p>P1: (03:56)</p><p>P2: (32:36)</p><br><p>Produced by: Tom Bassam</p><br><p>Email in via <a href="mailto:[email protected]" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">[email protected]</a></p><p>Subscribe to our YouTube channel <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@liberopod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@liberopod</a></p><p>Follow us on X <a href="https://x.com/podcast_libero" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@podcast_libero</a></p><p>Follow us on Bluesky <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/liberopodcast.bsky.social" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@liberopodcast.bsky.social</a></p><p>Follow us on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/liberopod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@liberopod</a></p><p>Follow us on TikTok <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@liberopod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@liberopod</a></p><p>Follow us on Facebook <a href="https://www.facebook.com/liberopod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@liberopod</a></p><br><p>Music: Kid Kodi - Blue Dot Sessions</p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The rule of thumb in Scottish football is that if one Old Firm club is doing badly, then the other is doing well. So what happens when both Celtic and Rangers are both in troubled times concurrently? With Brendan Rogers axed as Celtic boss shortly after the departure of Russell Martin from Ibrox, a Hearts team powered by the analytics of Tony Bloom are top of the Scottish Premiership. It seems there has never been a more likely time for an outsider to end Glasgow's hegemony north of Hadrian's Wall, but how have the Old Firm clubs found themselves in such a perilous position? When did buying 'Championship jobbers' stop being good enough? Has the obsession with beating each other hindered their ability to succeed in Europe? Much to discuss for Jack Pitt-Brooke, John Brewin and Rory Smith.
