[VIDEO] Solving Striker Problem
Since Gary Hooper left last season Celtic have been lacking a real poachers instinct and all our strikers have struggled to find the net on a consistent basis. Many feel that we must invest in a new prolific striker in order to reach our potential but don’t bet on that happening once Peter Lawwell sees […]
The State Of Our Club

SPFL Season 2014/2015
With the comfort of a world cup to hold back the football withdrawals the wait for the 2014/2015 is over. First division champions Dundee will play Kilmarnock while Hamilton host Inverness.

Legia Warsaw Under Investigation
Tonight Legia Warsaw released a statement saying they are currently under investigation by UEFA for fielding and ineligible player during their tie with Celtic last night. Bereszynskiego had been suspended last season but wasn’t registered to play against St Pats so he did not serve that bad, then he came on as a late sub […]
No Quality, No Passion, No Pride
I’ve been going to see Celtic since 1964 but tonight’s experience ranks down there with the worst of times. Before the game Ronny had said that he wanted more energy from the team than he saw in Warsaw and he certainly got that tonight…..for about fifteen minutes. Even during this period though we never really […]

There’s NO Place Like Home
As Celtic look to pull off the great escape on Wednesday night I can’t help but feel uncomfortable with the fact that when the Celtic song hits and the players run out the tunnel they will not be running on to the hallowed turf of Celtic Park. Instead they will take their place 43 miles […]
Celtic Australis Football Club
Celtic’s charitable roots is something our fanbase holds very dear. The message of Brother Walfrid lives in all of us today and isnpires as we go about our lives.

Like the cleaning of a house….
Watching Celtic away from home in Europe is a lot like watching a Michael Bay remake. It never follows the original script and always makes you question why did I waste my money to come and see this? Our capitulation in Warsaw last night just added to our ever growing comical list of defeats on […]
