As you can imagine, there is something of a change in mood compared to last week's pod. It's a broadly upbeat recording with a soupcon of giddiness. Oddly enough, a convincing 90-minute performance, giving Neil McCann a bad day at the office, plus the potential emergence of a new hero will do that to men of a certain age.
Obviously, events in Govan on Sunday are discussed and enjoyed, and we take some pleasure from the undoubted discomfort that Derek McKlopp felt at full time.
Of course, it wouldn't be an RGC pod if there wasn't a degree of moaning, and that is largely centred around potential transfer activity both inwards and outwards. There's some concern about who might go and concern about what is likely to come in.
Still, it was a great weekend, so let's enjoy it.
As far as the RGC goes, it's an AGM that provides a worthy recipient of the RGC of The Week Award sponsored by High Performance
