Brendan Rodgers won literally every single domestic trophy he competed for as Celtic manager, but as he and they move on inexorably to a third Treble in three seasons, he has decided to move back down south and take the Leicester City job.

Kieran Canning joins us to talk about the reaction to this news from Celtic fans – more resigned than disgusted – and whether his reputation has been enhanced by his time in Scotland.

And US Murph is back, talking to us about the story of Zion Williamson, the consensus No. 1 draft pick in the NBA draft later this year, who twisted his knee courtesy of a dodgy sneaker on live national television, in front of Barack Obama, who was court-side. Why did this wipe nearly 1 billion dollars off the Nike share price, and what does it tell us about the sham-amateurism of college athletes in the US?

Plus, what now for New England Patriots owner and Trump pal, Bob Kraft?

There’s some very big news from the “I’ll Tell You Who Wrote It” Second Captains book club, the football world continues to troll Ken, the king of the golf course, presbyterianism, and Eoin’s J1 stories.
