[smacks lips] It's all about a potential managerial merry-go-round today. Who's attracting suitors, and who's sitting on a shoogly peg? And a new challenge awaits Gary Naismith at Ayr United. [upbeat music] Hello, I'm Martin Dowden, and this is the Scottish Football Podcast, all the news, views, and analysis you need on Thursday, the 7th of May. Today's talking point: are we heading for a summer of dugout departures with some managers no doubt in demand?
