      <title>Andy Ritchie: Scotland’s Forgotten Genius | Second Only to Rossi in Europe</title>
      <description>🏆 SHORTLISTED!

Let Me Be Frank has been shortlisted for Spotify Listeners’ Choice at the Scottish Podcast Awards.

If you’ve enjoyed the football, the stories, the guests and Frank talking over Simon for the last year or so, we’d genuinely love your vote ❤️

It only takes a minute and every vote really does matter.

Vote here 👇
https://scottishpodcastawards.scot/spotify-listeners-choice-shortlist/



Andy Ritchie joins Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston for a fascinating and emotional look back on one of Scottish football’s great “what if?” stories.

Once considered one of the brightest talents in the country, Andy reflects on becoming Scottish Player of the Year while playing part-time for Morton, even fixing roads the very day he collected the award.

He tells the incredible story of finishing second only to Paolo Rossi in Europe’s Golden Boot standings, yet feeling overlooked because he played outside the spotlight.

There are brilliant stories throughout, from his complicated relationship with Jock Stein, who released him before later trying to bring him back, to addressing claims he was lazy and nicknamed “The Idle Idol”.

Andy also opens up about missing out on the World Cup through Scotland’s old committee selection system, leaving football before the age of 28, his mental health struggles, and later returning to Celtic as chief scout, where he played a key role in bringing Paul Lambert to the club from European champions Borussia Dortmund.

Funny, honest and packed with incredible football stories, this is a remarkable episode.

      <title>Frank Reacts to O’Neill Having A Go At Him, Iheanacho Explodes &amp; Is Forrest Too Late for Scotland?</title>
      <description>Frank reacts after Martin O’Neill took a swipe at him following their recent debate about Celtic’s style of play.

The lads discuss whether O’Neill has actually reinforced Frank’s long-held view that Celtic can dominate games while still frustrating supporters at times.

They also look at Celtic’s dramatic extra-time burst against St Mirren, with Kelechi Iheanacho suddenly emerging as a major weapon for the run-in after two superb goals.

James Forrest impressed again too, but has his Scotland chance come just too late despite another reminder of his quality?

Another lively Frankly Speaking with strong opinions and plenty of debate.

      <title>Why our VAR is failing, why Scottish refs are snubbed and Steve Conroy on refereeing as a Celtic fan</title>
      <description>Back by popular demand after a sell-out show… we’re LIVE again 🎙️

Grace’s Irish Centre
John Hartson

🎟️ Tickets: bit.ly/4dAJEdL

—

Former Category One referees Steve Conroy and Des Roache join Frank and Simon for a candid look at the state of Scottish refereeing.

They discuss why VAR is causing growing frustration, why Scotland continues to be overlooked for major international appointments, and whether officials are falling behind at the top level.

There’s also their verdict on the weekend’s big decisions, questions around whether the current system is working, and honest insight into leadership, coaching and confidence within the game.

Steve reflects on the pressures of refereeing in Scotland, addresses being a Celtic fan and why it never impacted his performances, and explains why he was trusted with only one Old Firm match. Des adds his own perspective on the scrutiny, personalities and demands that come with officiating at the highest level.

A proper behind-the-scenes look at refereeing in Scotland.

      <title>Who Does Anas Sarwar Really Support? Plus The Time He Was Told to Ignore Messi </title>
      <description>Anas Sarwar joins Frank and Simon for a lively and funny conversation during the Scottish election campaign, with plenty of light relief along the way.

He tackles the football question everyone wants answered, reveals his long-running obsession with Championship Manager, and shares the brilliant story of being advised not to waste money signing a young Lionel Messi.

There’s also his take on Donald Trump, why he thinks America could adopt Scotland as their World Cup team, and how he plans to persuade voters to move away from the SNP and Reform UK.

Plus, a great story involving Frank Bruno in the dentist’s chair.

Potholes, politics, campaign pressure and plenty of laughs, showing a very different side to one of Scotland’s best-known political figures.

      <title>Simon Donnelly on Missiles in Dubai, Celtic &amp; Title Run-In</title>
      <description>Simon Donnelly shares a surreal story about being in Dubai when missile warnings were issued and the entire hotel was told to take cover.

While most people rushed for safety, one table of Scottish footballers had other ideas…

A brilliant and bizarre story, plus Frank McAvennie joins the show slightly worse for wear after a late St Patrick’s night with former teammates.

The lads also chat through the title run-in, the Scotland squad and more.

      <title>Alex McLeish: Aberdeen Glory Days, Faddy in Paris &amp; Bringing Arteta to Britain</title>
      <description>Alex McLeish joins Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston for a brilliant look back at one of the most remarkable eras in Scottish football.

The former Aberdeen captain and manager reflects on a season that reminds him of the days when Aberdeen and Dundee United were dominating Scottish football, and relives the highlights of an extraordinary career both on the pitch and in the dugout.

Alex tells the story of receiving his Aberdeen debut from the legendary Cesar, reveals what it was like playing under Sir Alex Ferguson, and recalls the moment Ferguson feared one of Aberdeen’s hard men had finally had enough of the famous hairdryer treatment.

He also explains how he helped bring Mikel Arteta to British football, looks back at his proudest moments with Aberdeen, and shares what was going through his mind when James McFadden lined up that unforgettable shot in Paris for Scotland.

There’s even a musical moment as Frank serenades Alex’s wife on her special day.

A brilliant mix of football history, dressing room stories and plenty of laughs.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: Ibrox Fallout, Tunnel Bust-Up &amp; Are Celtic Still Favourites?</title>
      <description>Frank and Simon react to a dramatic afternoon at Ibrox as Rangers blew a 2–0 half-time lead to draw 2–2 with Celtic.

Was it a missed opportunity? A momentum shift? Or a sign of bigger issues in the title race?

The lads discuss the reported tunnel bust-up, who now has the easier run-in, and whether Celtic should still be considered favourites to lift the league.

Frank also gives his verdict on why Oxlade-Chamberlain struggled, why Chermiti needs to offer more, and what needs to change before the next big test.

Plus, a lighter moment as Frank shares his fears for some Old Firm mates currently stuck in Dubai.

Big opinions. Big reactions. No holding back.

      <title>Controversial, Heartbreaking, Funny &amp; Unforgiving | The Truth About Being a Scottish FIFA Ref</title>
      <description>John Rowbotham joins Frank and Simon for one of the most revealing conversations we’ve ever had on the podcast.

From the highest levels of FIFA officiating to the moments that still sting years later, John opens up about the controversial decisions, the intense scrutiny and the emotional cost of being the man in the middle.

He explains what it really feels like when 50,000 people think you’ve got it wrong. The pressure before kick-off. The split-second calls that can define careers. And the moments that stay with you long after the final whistle.

There are heartbreaking stories. There are brutal truths. And there are genuinely hilarious moments too, including the Collina lookalike comparisons that followed him throughout his career.

This is the side of refereeing fans rarely hear. Honest, emotional and surprisingly funny.

If you’ve ever shouted at a referee, this might just change how you see the game.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: Celtic Appeal Trusty Red Card – Frank Fears FOURTH Place Finish </title>
      <description>Frank and Simon return with another explosive Frankly Speaking following a weekend that has left Celtic fans furious.

Frank reacts with anger to the Trusty red card and cannot believe there was no penalty awarded for the foul on Liam Scales. He calls for action to be taken against what he describes as a Motherwell cheat and questions the consistency of officiating.

But it doesn’t stop there.

Frank fears Celtic could easily finish FOURTH this season if standards do not improve. He explains why the current performances are not good enough and why the board and players need to get their fingers out.

The chat also turns to the upcoming trip to Ibrox, with Frank giving his predictions for both the league clash and the cup tie.

And could Kieran Tierney move into central defence? Frank gives his view on where he should play and what Celtic must do tactically.

Strong opinions. No holding back.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: Oxlade Chamberlain Is a Genius Signing and Celtic Must Win Back the Fans</title>
      <description>Frank and Simon return with a big Frankly Speaking as Celtic make what Frank believes could be a season defining signing.

Frank is adamant that Alex Oxlade Chamberlain is already the best midfielder in Scotland, calling the move a stroke of genius and explaining why he thinks the former England international will raise standards across the squad.

But it is not all optimism. The conversation quickly turns to the bigger picture at Celtic, with Frank warning that unless the club rebuild trust with supporters, the league title could slip away. He argues that performances alone will not fix the disconnect and that leadership off the pitch is just as important as what happens on it.

Strong opinions, bold claims and no sitting on the fence. This is Frankly Speaking in full flow.

      <title>Leigh Griffiths: Goals, Records, Hampden Heroics and Life in Australia</title>
      <description>Leigh Griffiths joins Frank and Simon for a wide ranging and honest football conversation.

One of the most natural goalscorers of his generation, Leigh looks back on his trophy laden spell at Celtic, where he broke scoring milestones, hit 40 goals in a single season, and became the fastest striker since Charlie Nicholas to reach 50 for the club.

He reflects on the managers who shaped his career, explains why his time at Hibs still means so much to him, and relives that unforgettable night at Hampden when he scored two sensational late free kicks against England.

Now based in Australia, Leigh opens up about stepping away from the noise of the Scottish game, embracing a quieter life, and rediscovering his love for football through playing and coaching.

A candid and thoughtful look back at a career packed with goals, big moments and new beginnings.

Now based in Australia, Leigh opens up about stepping away from the noise of the Scottish game, embracing a quieter life, and rediscovering his love for football through playing and coaching.

A candid and thoughtful look back at a career packed with goals, big moments and new beginnings.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: This squad will not win the league - no wonder fans are united against the board</title>
      <description>Frank and Simon return with a new Frankly Speaking as frustration around Celtic reaches boiling point.

Frank gives a blunt assessment of the current squad, insisting that what Celtic have right now is simply not strong enough to win the league. He explains where the team is falling short, why standards have slipped, and why supporters are right to be angry.

The conversation turns to the growing unity among fans against the Celtic board, with Frank arguing that the disconnect between decision makers and the support has never been wider. Recruitment, ambition and leadership are all put under the spotlight.

Unfiltered, uncompromising and straight from the heart, this is Frankly Speaking at its rawest.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: Celtic lightweights were bullied and Desmond is giving fans the finger</title>
      <description>Frank and Simon return with a fiery Frankly Speaking after Celtic’s underwhelming draw with Hearts at the weekend.

Frank does not hold back as he questions Celtic’s physicality, describing the performance as lightweight and saying Hearts bullied their way through the game at key moments. He also reacts strongly to the Trusty red card, insisting the referee got it right initially and that VAR official John Beaton should never have got involved in overturning the decision.

The conversation then turns to the wider picture at Celtic. Frank accuses Dermot Desmond of showing a complete lack of respect to supporters and says the disconnect between the board and the fans has never felt wider. There is also concern over Martin O’Neill, with Frank suggesting the Celtic legend looks disheartened by the current situation.

With the transfer window dragging on and pressure building, Frank makes it clear where the responsibility lies and why the board must act now.

Raw, angry and completely unfiltered Frank McAvennie, exactly as Frankly Speaking should be.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: Martin O’Neill looks like he’s had enough - do your job Nicholson!</title>
      <description>Frank and Simon return with a new Frankly Speaking after a flat and worrying Celtic cup win over Auchinleck Talbot.

Despite getting through, the performance raises serious questions. Frank gives his honest reaction to what he saw, why the result papers over cracks, and why Celtic cannot afford to drift through another transfer window.

The pair discuss Martin O’Neill’s body language and frustration, with Frank questioning whether the interim boss looks fed up with the lack of backing. Attention quickly turns to the Celtic board, with Michael Nicholson firmly in the spotlight as calls grow for decisive action in the market.

It is blunt, passionate and exactly how Frank sees it. No spin, no excuses, just straight talk on where Celtic are heading and what must change quickly.

      <title>Lee Martin: Why Fergie has been irreplaceable at Man Utd and Life as Celtic’s Unluckiest Player</title>
      <description>Lee Martin joins Simon and Frank for a wide ranging and insightful conversation covering two of the biggest clubs in British football and the problems both continue to wrestle with.

A former Manchester United and Celtic player, Lee gives a fascinating inside view on why United have never truly replaced Sir Alex Ferguson. Drawing on his own experiences under Fergie, he explains how standards, authority and culture shifted once Ferguson left, why that era has proven impossible to replicate, and why modern football struggles to produce figures like him.

Lee also looks back honestly on his time at Celtic, describing himself as one of the unluckiest players in the club’s history. Injuries, timing and circumstance combined to derail his spell in Glasgow, and he speaks candidly about how frustrating that period was for him.

Alongside the interview, Frank reacts to Celtic’s recent win at Falkirk, gives his unfiltered view on the performance, and does not hold back on what he sees as yet another shocking transfer window. As ever, standards are questioned, opinions are strong, and nothing is sugar coated.

A thoughtful, candid and lively episode that blends football history, hard truths and classic Let Me Be Frank honesty.

      <description>Charlie Miller joins Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston for a wide ranging reaction to a huge weekend in Scottish football.

The trio break down the latest Celtic v Rangers clash, looking at the key moments, performances and what it told us about both sides. The conversation then turns to the sacking of Wilfried Nancy and what Celtic do next, with discussion around Martin O’Neill and the direction the club now finds itself in.

Attention also shifts to Rangers and the impact of Rohl, with Charlie giving his take on their recent revival and whether it signals a real turning point or just a short term bounce.

Honest opinions, strong reactions and plenty of insight as Scottish football digests another dramatic week.

      <title>Tony Cascarino: Celtic Struggles, Ireland Legends, Hilarious Stories and Brutal Teammate Tales</title>
      <description>Tony Cascarino joins Simon Houston and Frank McAvennie for a brilliant, hilarious and brutally honest conversation about a football career that never followed the expected script.

Arriving at Celtic as a record signing from Aston Villa, Tony looks back candidly on why his time in Glasgow did not work out. He speaks openly about the pressure, the scrutiny and the mistakes he made, while delivering plenty of laugh out loud stories along the way, including a scathing and unforgettable assessment of one former Celtic teammate.

Despite that difficult spell, Tony reflects on the moment that still connects him to the Celtic support. Scoring against Rangers at Ibrox remains a hugely significant memory for him, and he explains why that goal still means so much all these years later.

The conversation then moves to France, where Tony explains how his career finally clicked. He talks about becoming a major success abroad, why the change of culture suited him, and how it brought out the best football of his career.

Tony also looks back warmly on representing Ireland under Jack Charlton, recalling special moments, strong bonds and a period of international football that remains a genuine source of pride.

Funny, self aware and completely unfiltered, Tony Cascarino proves to be a wonderful storyteller from start to finish. A cracking listen for Simon and Frank, and a must for anyone who loves football stories told properly.

      <title>“My Teams Would Batter Yours” Frank McAvennie’s Greatest Sides v Today’s Celtic and West Ham</title>
      <description>Frank McAvennie pulls no punches in this episode of Let Me Be Frank as he puts his greatest teams up against today’s Celtic and West Ham sides and makes some bold predictions.

Frank compares Celtic’s legendary Centenary team of 1988 with the current squad and predicts the exact score if the two sides went head to head. He breaks down key match ups, including Paul McStay versus Callum McGregor and Johnny Kenny versus Mick McCarthy, and explains why he believes his era would come out on top.

The conversation then turns to West Ham, as Frank pits the famous 1986 side against the modern team. Once again, he names the scoreline and talks through classic battles like Tony Cottee versus Callum Wilson, explaining what made those old teams so hard to play against.

It is opinionated, nostalgic and full of classic Macca confidence as he asks the ultimate question. Would today’s teams really cope with the great sides of the past?

      <title>Owen Coyle: Nancy tactics, Russell Martin abuse, Celtic Dreams &amp; “I’m From the Gorbals- bring it on"</title>
      <description>This week Simon is in the studio with Owen Coyle while Frank joins live from the Maldives, and what follows is one of the most entertaining conversations we have ever had on the podcast.

Owen gives his full backing to new Celtic manager Wilfried Nancy, defending the early tactical choices and laughing off the drama surrounding the now famous tiny tactics board. He also speaks strongly about former Rangers boss Russell Martin, condemning the horrendous abuse Martin has received and offering a warm assessment of him as both a coach and a person.

As a lifelong Celtic fan, Owen opens up about why he felt he could never have been a Celtic striker, and he addresses the rumours about whether he was ever close to becoming Celtic manager. He and Frank revisit the day of Frank’s second Celtic debut against Airdrie with Owen lining up on the opposite side, sharing brilliant memories from a colourful era of Scottish football.

Owen also relives the wild 5 to 3 promotion decider between Dundee and Queen’s Park at Ochilview, the pitch invasion that followed, and the moment Dundee boss Gary Bowyer tried to rush him to safety. Owen’s response sums him up perfectly: “I am from the Gorbals. I can handle myself.”

Packed with strong opinions, honesty and plenty of hilarious moments, this is Owen Coyle at his most open and relaxed. A brilliant episode for anyone who loves football, Celtic chat or a top class storyteller.

      <title>Frankly Speaking: Callum McGregor &amp; Harvey Barnes for the World Cup squad? Plus Fergie’s big mistake</title>
      <description>Frankly Speaking returns and this week Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston dig into Scotland’s World Cup hopes and the big selection dilemmas ahead.

Frank and Simon discuss whether Callum McGregor and Harvey Barnes should be in the squad, how Scotland can get the best out of their midfield, and what the team needs to go deep in the tournament.

Frank also looks back at the 1986 World Cup and explains why he believes Sir Alex Ferguson made a big mistake by not starting him alongside Charlie Nicholas. He talks through how close he felt Scotland were to doing something special with the right partnerships on the pitch.

Plenty of strong opinions, laughs and classic Macca honesty.

      <title>Why Celtic Fans Need to Know Their History: Connolly Laughs, AGM Fireworks and Butcher’s Dig</title>
      <description>Frank and Simon are joined by comedian Des McLean and playwright Jim Orr for a fast, funny and fiery episode. Jim talks about If You Know You’re History?, their new Celtic stage show coming to the Pavilion next August, and how it revisits the club’s darkest days in the early 90s.

Des brings the laughs with his voices and a brilliant story about the time he phoned Sean Connery pretending to be Billy Connolly. The pair also reflect on their earlier success Bend It Like Bertie.

Jim gives his blunt view on the Celtic AGM, explaining what he believes should have happened and comparing the Desmond family to the old Kelly regime.

And Frank reacts to Terry Butcher’s latest attack, revisiting their famous bust-up that ended up in court. Connolly chaos, AGM honesty and Butcher battles — a true Know Your History episode.

      <title>The Sheriff Rides In: Cillian Sheridan on Celtic, Ireland, Tommy Burns, learning Chinese &amp; World Cup</title>
      <description>This week Frank sits down with a fellow former Celtic striker, the one and only Cillian “The Sheriff” Sheridan, for a fast, funny and wonderfully unpredictable conversation.

Cillian reflects on arriving in Scotland as a young Irish lad and the sheer delight of being handed a three year Celtic contract by the much loved Tommy Burns, a moment that changed everything for him. From there, his career became one of the great football odysseys as he tries to name all 17 clubs he has played for across Europe and beyond.

The Sheriff talks about learning Chinese on his travels, why he thinks Irish players have a special resilience, and how proud he is to see Ireland reach the World Cup play offs, helped by the heroics of Dublin boy Troy Parrott, who came through the same youth club.

Frank and Cillian also look ahead to the 2026 World Cup, sharing hopes, predictions and a fair bit of wishful thinking.

Warm, hilarious and full of stories only Cillian Sheridan could tell.

      <title>From McKnightmare to Magic: Allen McKnight on Celtic, West Ham and Crossing the Divide</title>
      <description>This week on Let Me Be Frank, Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston sit down with former Celtic, West Ham and Northern Ireland goalkeeper Allen McKnight. His career had everything from the highs of Celtic’s centenary season to the tough days of the McKnightmare headlines and plenty of wild nights out.

Allen talks about growing up in a Protestant household in Northern Ireland, supporting the other side of the Glasgow divide, and then finding himself in goal for Celtic in the 1988 Scottish Cup Final win. He also reflects on his friendship with Anton Rogan, who faced abuse for playing for Northern Ireland, and how football helped both men navigate a divided time back home.

There are plenty of laughs as Allen and Macca look back on their nights out, the characters in the Celtic dressing room, and the moment he won over West Ham fans who once gave him that unforgettable nickname.

Honest, funny, emotional and packed with great stories. One of football’s most entertaining characters tells it exactly as it was.

      <title>The Rebels Have Won Before… and Can Win Again - Brian Dempsey on the Soul of Celtic</title>
      <description>In this special episode, Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston sit down with former Celtic director Brian Dempsey, the man who helped lead the 1994 “rebel takeover” that saved the club from collapse.

From his famous declaration outside Celtic Park, “The game’s over, the Rebels have won,” to the current turmoil at the top of the club, Dempsey reflects on three decades of battles, boardrooms and belief.

He talks about:
⚽ Toppling the old Celtic family dynasty and the dramatic nights that changed the club forever.
💚 His hot-and-cold relationship with Fergus McCann, the stubborn visionary who rebuilt Celtic Park and divided opinion.
💥 His run-ins with Dermot Desmond and his surprise at Desmond’s recent criticism of Brendan Rodgers.
🍀 Why he believes Celtic supporters can one day own their club, and why European glory shouldn’t be just a memory.

It’s part history lesson, part rallying cry, and a reminder that maybe, just maybe, the Rebels can win again.

🎙 Let Me Be Frank brings you honest, funny and unfiltered stories from the people who have lived Scottish football’s biggest moments.

      <title>Tommy Sheridan: Politics, Prison &amp; Paradise</title>
      <description>In this episode of Let Me Be Frank, Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston sit down with one of Scotland’s most talked-about figures — Tommy Sheridan. The former MSP, activist and all-round firebrand is brutally honest about everything: his rise from working-class Glasgow to Holyrood, his time in prison, life in the media spotlight, and his lifelong love affair with Celtic Football Club. It’s funny, fiery, and as you’d expect — completely and utterly frank.

      <description>With the Ryder Cup just two days away, Let Me Be Frank welcomes Open Champion and Ryder Cup legend Paul Lawrie for an unmissable episode ⛳🇪🇺🇺🇸

Paul opens up on some of the biggest moments of his career — from his famous Open win at Carnoustie to his time representing Europe on golf’s greatest stage. He recalls the drama of Ryder Cup putting duels, the party atmosphere afterwards, and his experiences with the US fans (including some hilarious abuse shouted his way).

Alongside Ryder Cup stories, Paul reflects on iconic moments with Andy Murray and Bob Macintyre, memories of his friend Adam Hunter, that unforgettable Van de Velde collapse, and even a word about Sir Alex Ferguson. Honest, funny and insightful — this is one you don’t want to miss.

      <title>Kevin Kyle on Breaking His Celtic-daft Brother’s Heart &amp; How Gambling Pushed Him to the Brink</title>

      <title>Bobby Williamson: Benching McCoist, Battling Cancer, and Coaching in Africa</title>
      <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.

      <title>Where’s the Birds? Phil Differ &amp; Raymond Mearns Talk Football, Comedy, Only an Excuse &amp; Celtic Da’s</title>
      <description>Comedy writer and Only an Excuse creator Phil Differ and Glasgow stand-up favourite Raymond Mearns join Frank McAvennie and Simon Houston for a riotous episode packed with stories, laughs and a bit of nostalgia.

The four talk football, the glory days of Scottish sketch comedy, and how Phil came up with Frank’s iconic catchphrase “Where’s the birds?” — much to Frank’s ongoing confusion. Raymond delivers what may be the greatest joke ever told, and they all discuss the inspiration behind Celtic Da’s — Phil’s brand-new stage play starring Raymond and fellow Scottish comic Bruce Morton.

Expect big laughs, behind-the-scenes stories, and the kind of patter only this lot could get away with.

      <title>Former Sky Sports reporter and West Ham fan Bianca Westwood reveals how Frank helped her escape a toxic childhood and recalls the battles being taken seriously as a female football broadcaster</title>
      <description>In the latest episode of Let Me Be Frank, Bianca Westwood catches up with her hero Frank McAvennie to relive some magical West Ham memories from the terraces of Upton Park. 

And she recalls how tough it was trying to smash through the glass ceiling which female football journalists face. 



Also in this episode:



Walking down Green Street felt magical 

Managers disrespected me and I wasn’t allowed in the tunnel 

The glass ceiling for women in football is still there 

I didn’t care that men ripped my looks apart - I knew more about football than them 

If I made the slightest mistake I was terrorised, I couldn’t sleep or eat
