Following on from our big interview with Warm-Up co-host Chris Sutton, it’s Kris Boyd’s turn to be grilled on his life and career.

Sutty and fellow host and long-time friend of Kris, Steven Naismith, quiz Boydy on the big decisions, goals and controversies that make him one of the William Hill SPFL greats and record top goalscorer.

Here Kris talks about the men who shaped him, including Walter Smith, the dark days at Ibrox under Paul Le Guen and Ally McCoist and his career in the media as one of Scottish football’s best known and opinionated pundits.

The spotlight is on Chris Sutton as the Warm-Up host becomes the subject of the latest Warm-Up big interview.

Sitting down with his regular co-hosts, Steven Naismith and Kris Boyd, Sutty looks back on his career, starting with his formative years and journey to becoming a professional footballer at Norwich.

Chris talks about taking flight for the Canaries and leaving the roost for Blackburn Rovers, where he won the Premier League Golden Boot and an historic EPL title under Kenny Dalglish.

He covers the ill-fated move to Chelsea and journey north, to Celtic, where he became one of the greatest players to pull on the Hoops.

And Chris talks about how his career ended, back in England under Martin O’Neill, and about his great strike partners, Henrik Larsson, Alan Shearer, George Weah and which one bought him a tracksuit when he was feeling low...
