Do the Hearts fans deserve an explanation?

Political journalist Bernard Ponsonby talks football, politics and television with his old STV teammate, Peter Martin. It's a trip down memory lane on chasing stories, political leaders they admired and what Bernard's favourite team Celtic must do to get the fans back onside!

Hugh MacDonald reckons some Celtic fans are irrational in their dislike of Robbie Keane as a candidate for the manager's job. Scotland is not a certainty for victory over Haiti.

A new deal and worthy of the hall of fame, but is qualifying for a major tournament the best we can hope for from Steve Clarke? Roughie can see the improvement and benefits of VAR. When will Celtic announce their new manager? 

Gordon Parks and Hugh MacDonald can fully understand why Hearts fans are angry at Lawrence Shankland moving to Rangers on a free transfer. Many Hearts fans want to know why that deal was agreed. Which player do you think should be in the top 50 in the Premier League since 1975?

Tam McManus thinks Lawrence Shankland is a great addition to the Rangers squad. Peter Martin believes next season is where Derek McInnes will see the real value of Jamestown analytics at Hearts. Can anyone provide a challenge in the Scottish Premiership outwith the big three?

Tam McManus refuses to write off Dunfermline's chances of causing an upset in the Cup final. Alan Rough believes Neil Lennon can take inspiration from Aberdeen's efforts last season at Hampden. Peter Martin reckons Celtic are ready for the easier option of offering Martin O'Neill the Manager's job on a full-time basis.

Gordon Parks believes Celtic need to look for a new, younger manager and celebrate the legacy of Martin O'Neill's achievements this season. Hugh MacDonald dismisses any sort of strict liability or legislation for pitch invasions. Gordon Parks explains why Steve Clarke omitted Oli McBurnie from his final Scotland squad.

Alex Rae calls for strict liability for clubs with misbehaving fans. Peter Martin believes the majority of decent Celtic fans are disgusted with the supporters who threatened Hearts players on the pitch. Who should get the job as the next Celtic manager? Roughie believes Martin O'Neill will be in with a shout. Tam McManus does not think Danny Rohl is the man to deliver a title for Rangers.

It's the showdown for the title. Who wins, Celtic or Hearts? The predictions are in. The hysteria of the penalty against Motherwell and the threat to Referee John Beaton and his family are discussed by the panel. Will this game be decided by a VAR decision? Who are the match-winners? The decision by Danny Rohl not to give James Tavernier a fitting send-off and the possibility of a fifth straight defeat for Rangers is also on the agenda. Can Motherwell top off a great season by finishing fourth?

Tam McManus has criticised referee John Beaton and VAR official Andrew Dallas for gifting Celtic a penalty in the last minute of their 3-2 win at Motherwell. Roughie and Peter Martin disagree and have offered their thoughts on who has the advantage going into the final match of the season on Saturday. Rangers manager Danny Rohl has also been criticised for his decision not to play outgoing captain James Tavernier.
