Welcome along to The Low Block for Monday 12th October 2026! Host Blair Malloy is joined in the studio by sports journalists David Irvine and Graeme McGarry to break down all the major talking points from a dramatic weekend of Scottish Premiership action following the international break.

Hearts hit St Mirren for five at Tynecastle, Rangers make it seven wins on the bounce under Derek McInnes despite Kilmarnock’s chances at Ibrox, and Celtic take the heat off with a 2-0 win over Motherwell at Fir Park. We take a deep dive into Motherwell’s concerning tactical shift under Alfred Johansson, the and why Fir Park fans are worried. Plus, we look at Marink Reedijk tough start at Hibs, Falkirk's 91st-minute heartbreak against Dundee, and mounting pressure on Steven Robinson after Aberdeen's home loss to Simo Valakari's St Johnstone.
