20: Defoe, Weah & McCormack – the Premiership awaits

The season so far in the Premiership has entertained beyond all expectation and the January transfer window is following suit. The Totally Scottish Football Show is back as Andrew Slaven, Harry Slavin and JJ Bull look at the progress made in this campaign so far by each Scottish Premiership club. 1 point separates the top 3 so Rangers have gone big, signing Jermain Defoe and Jordan Jones amongst others. Will the impending departure of Jones in the summer unsettle Bret 'The Hitman' Hart’s favourite team Kilmarnock? Or will Timothy Weah, the President’s son, give the champions the advantage in the title race? Can Ross McCormack put a controversial few years behind him as he returns to Fir Park on loan? And will he fit into Motherwell’s herd of rhinos approach? The great Oldfirmfacts joins us to review Beaton Mania, and the continued fall-out from the referee’s performance in Rangers’ victory over Celtic at the end of 2018. They never sleep in the Championship, League One or League Two. The BBC’s Richard Winton tells us about the structural changes being made at Tannadice, as Dundee United strive for a way back into the big time.
