Episode Description

This week on Let Me Be Frank, the lads sit down with Scottish football legend Bobby Williamson — and he’s full of stories.


🔥 He tells the real story behind why he left Ally McCoist on the bench at Ibrox, denying the Rangers support one final appearance from their hero — and why he’d do it again.


🌍 He takes us through his incredible journey managing in Uganda and Kenya, from chaotic matches to unforgettable moments far from the Scottish spotlight.


⚽ Bobby also reflects on managing a young Scott Brown at Hibs, and watching him grow into the captain who would lead Celtic to multiple trophies and Champions League nights.


❤️ And in a powerful, honest conversation, he opens up about his battle with an aggressive form of cancer, and how he fought his way back.


It’s football stories with heart, humour, and a few things you’ve definitely never heard before.
