In this episode of host James Scott is joined by Kirsty Paterson, a passionate advocate for women's Scottish football. Kirsty brings her wealth of experience covering the women's game to the table as they dive into the recent SKY Cup final between Rangers and Partick Thistle.
Kirsty's journey into sports journalism was fueled by her love for football, leading her to pursue a degree in sports at university. However, upon graduation, she encountered a stark reality: opportunities for women in football journalism were scarce.

As advocates for progress and equality within the sport, they discuss the importance of fostering talent, creating pathways for young players, and dismantling barriers that hinder women's participation and representation.
