Ally McCoist and Laura Woods will reunite on talkSPORT Breakfast this week, three years after their much-loved partnership ended.

The Rangers legend and popular presenter co-hosted the show from March 2020 until June 2023, with Woods’ departure leaving listeners gutted as she moved on to become TNT Sports’ lead Champions League presenter.

Her final show proved emotional, with McCoist, the former Ibrox striker and manager, paying tribute as Woods fought back tears. He said: “Everybody loves you, I love you and I’ve had an incredible three years working with you.

“Honest to God, we’ve never had a cross word, which is unbelievable considering the way I behave. We’ve always got on really, really well.

"I cannot tell you how much I’ve really enjoyed working with you.”

While the duo has since crossed paths through their work with ITV and TNT Sports, they are now set for an official talkSPORT reunion.

The station has confirmed McCoist and Woods will co-host Breakfast live from Budapest on Friday from 6am to 10am, ahead of the Champions League final between Arsenal and PSG.

However, fans hoping for a longer comeback will be disappointed, with Woods confirming it is a one-off appearance.

She wrote on X: “Popping back for one day only. Friday morning 6-10am.

“I’ll get the coffees.”

Woods also posted on Instagram: “Back with Ally, live from Budapest, Friday morning.”
