It’s highly likely he was inspired by this vintage BBC sci-fi thriller—pen in hand, watching Doomwatch unfold.Doomwatch was a vintage BBC science fiction series that aired from 1970 to 1972.

It's had a bit of everything; a manager sacked before the season commenced, last minute winners, coefficient points going up in smoke, Martindale magic, the return of Martin Boyle, and a big bloke having the time of his life in Amsterdam and sleeping through his team being pumped 7-0.

We're going to guess that you know exactly what we're all about by now so let's get right in to it! And by it, we mean a quick recap of (another) famous international footballing weekend for Scotland, a recap of all the action in the Cinch - who may or may not be our new sponsors - two weeks ago, whilst looking forward to a mouth watering month of fixtures to come.

Mere minutes before he boards his plane, live from the departures lounge, we dissect Week 3 of the Cinch's finest. Hearts vs Aberdeen turned out to be not quite to contest we anticipated (but at least we're talking about it on the pod), Ange's boys found their shooting boots once again, and Motherwell got a W on the board thanks to that "Elder Statesman" Tony Electric Watt.

Oh wait, they're in the Championship now. Well, it was still an opening weekend to remember so we unpick the action, take stock of new stars setting the Fantasy world alight, and explain why we're inclined to roll those transfers, baby.

He talks us through how the stars aligned for him to take top spot, the trials and tribulations of being a "big left back" in the modern era, and has a right old moan about English FPL managers which in itself is worth listening to this episode for.

After John finally gets over Scobie winning a bet he wasn't part of, we cast our minds back across weeks of action which saw the (non-compliant) crowning of the Champions, a sad day for tanning salons in Aberdeen with the end of the McInnes reign, and a brace for 'the most complete striker' in Scotland.
