Saddle up as Chris Sutton dons his Stetson and joins us from Dallas, Texas for the latest Warm-Up special.  The big man has developed a penchant for headwear since travelling to North America and, after proudly wearing a sombrero at the Azteca, is fittingly dressed for a visit to the Lone Star state.  Kris Boyd joins him from Boston, where he is still coming back to earth after Scotland’s win over Haiti - and a night at the baseball with James McFadden.  Together they look ahead to Scotland v Morocco and how Steve Clarke changes a winning team.  They also return to the domestic front and Rangers and Hearts, with the former preparing to say farewell to Danny Röhl and pinch the latter’s manager.  Where will the changes leave Hearts? And will Derek McInnes be able to make Rangers credible title contenders?  And the boys also discuss the latest news at Celtic Park and the latest politics, unrest and the odd case of Martin O’Neill’s assistants.    00:00 STARTS  00:30 Stetsons and sombreros  03:25 Baseball with Faddy  04:47 Scotland v Morocco  06:08 Steve Clarke will have to change it  11:10 Will a point be enough?  12:50 Rangers and Derek McInnes  14:43 Time for a Scottish heart?  17:13 Danny Röhl-ed over  22:05 Where do Hearts go next?  24:26 In like McGlynn?  26:00 Maloney, Fotheringham and what’s going on at Celtic  29:15 Is this Celtic squad good enough?  31:25 Where the boys are next  ENDS    Follow WilliamHillSPFL:   ✖️ Twitter: https://www.x.com/WilliamHillSPFL  📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/williamhillspfl  📘 Facebook: http://facebook.com/williamhillspfl    18+ please gamble responsibly.
