About this listen

Former Motherwell favourite Rab McKinnon joins the pod for an unmissable episode that blends football nostalgia with powerful real‑life perspective. Rab opens up about his prostate cancer diagnosis, the £20 blood test that saved his life, and why men must stop avoiding health checks.

From there, it’s a journey through football history — coming through at Newcastle United alongside a young Paul Gascoigne, a surreal loan spell under Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United, and unforgettable memories from Motherwell’s iconic mid‑90s side that came agonisingly close to history.

Honest, funny, emotional, and full of insight — this is far more than a football chat.

Key Highlights

  • Rab’s life‑saving health scare and message to men
  • Gazza stories from the Newcastle days
  • The Manchester United move that nearly happened
  • Inside stories from Motherwell’s golden era
  • VAR, modern football, and life after the game
