McCoist is also known for his television work. He was part of the A Question of Sport team from 1996 to 2007. On his farewell episode he failed to recognise “Mystery Guest” Walter Smith. He is also a pundit for ITV’s football coverage. McCoist, along with John Motson, are ex-long-term commentators for the FIFA video games series from EA Sports. They were replaced by Clive Tyldesley and Andy Gray for FIFA 2006.

In May 2006, he was part of the historic first European Selection, led by Terry Venables, which saw its debut game in Eindhoven in the first EFPA match-up against a Dutch selection of all-time greats.

He starred in the film A Shot at Glory alongside Robert Duvall and also co-presented a talk show McCoist and MacAulay for BBC Scotland alongside comedian Fred MacAulay.

Trivia: Actor Robert Duvall lashed out at Russell Crowe after Crowe turned down a role in his soccer film. Duvall produced A Shot At Glory, and has nothing but praise for his second choice, Scottish soccer sensation Alistair McCoist. He says, “This guy is 80 times better for this part than Russell Crowe, and more charismatic.” McCoist takes the role of a top player who is enticed to a second-tier team by its manager, played by Duvall.
