It’s All About Celtic For Me
We seem to take ourselves seriously more than ever these days, why is that? Have we lost the ability to laugh at ourselves and be able to converse with someone who has differing opinions without personal attacks? The internet is a wonderful thing but when it comes to Fitba’ I’d take it in moderation. Gone […]
Do we miss ‘Rangers’?
Do we miss ‘Rangers’? Do we have any sympathy for them? Probably not. Did they break the rules? Yes Do we miss the Old Firm games? Even the most die hard must do. Watching the Edinburgh derby made me think about Old Firm days. It was always the highlight of my footballing season, an early […]

Once a Bhoy now a legend!
What classifies a legend? Is it someone who hangs about a club for many years? Is it a fans favourite? Or is it someone playing for the jersey, giving everything they have for the fans? In my eyes Stan Petrov is all of those. The young Bulgarian rolled into Glasgow during the summer of 1999, […]
Fergus, Is He Underappreciated?
It was a dark and wet night I remember that! I was a 12 year old boy wondering whether my football team would be no more. Then came the quote which will be forever grained in my head, ‘The battle is over, the Rebels have won!’ Our neighbours are faced with a similar and […]
Joe Ledley – Mr Consistent

What Did We Do Before Section 111?
Tonight I am left with 1 question on my mind: Am I a Celtic supporter, or a Green Brigade supporter? This is straightforward for me. When I go along to Celtic Park, I go to watch the 11 men on the park in green and white. I cheer when they score and win, I scream […]

Is Kayal Fit For Purpose?
Celtic secure a home win in Europe with the bonus of a clean sheet and look favourites to go progress in the tie. Sound familiar? No not Elfsborg but Utrecht in 2010’s Europa League.

Celtic’s Most Important Summer Signing
We all know that Celtic need strengthened after some high profile departures this summer but in my mind there is one piece of business that has to be done above all others.
