    Frankly Speaking: KT HAS TO PLAY! | Drop Shankland? McInnes & Celtic Contract Row
    Jun 16 2026
    On this week’s Frankly Speaking, Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston debate Scotland’s best way forward after the win over Haiti. Should Steve Clarke stick with Lawrence Shankland, or is it time to play Che Adams as a lone striker? Frank also explains why Scotland must find a way to get both Kieran Tierney and Andy Robertson into the same team. The discussion then turns to Rangers, where Derek McInnes is already making moves. Frank believes he’ll look to bring former Aberdeen defender Ross McCrorie Braga to Ibrox and expects Rangers to be much stronger under their new manager. There’s also debate over Celtic’s handling of Shaun Maloney and Darren O’Dea/Fotheringham, amid reports the club are offering significantly reduced contracts. Scotland, Rangers, Celtic and plenty more in the latest episode of Frankly Speaking. #Scotland #Celtic #Rangers #LawrenceShankland #CheAdams #KieranTierney #AndyRobertson #DerekMcInnes #FranklySpeaking Learn more about your ad choices.
