Fifteen years is a long time to wait for a victory, our bogey team or not. The biggest club in the land shouldn’t be allowed to just rock up and…

‘There’s no business like show business’ the old song went. Some things never grow old, just ask super heroes, now to be found more on Netflix than children’s comics. This…

Morning,all.  I know some of you couldn’t give a XXXX about Australia and the people who live there,but I’ve long had a soft spot for them. Even though I’m no…

Morning,all.  I described last night’s performance as being solid but uninspiring. And it was all of that. Our defence was solid,featuring probably the best four players on the pitch,while the…

130 years ago… 1892 on this day ( Monday) and we have finally managed to play another league tie and maintain a strong position, sitting 6 points behind leaders Dumbarton,…

Morning,all. What a weekend that was then,eh? Between the hours of noon and 2pm on Sunday,and for the two hours that followed,we were as Celtic supporters in the depths of despair….

‘Has something happened?’ is the question that keeps crossing my mind. It’s just not supposed to be going like this, not at all, which just makes me wonder the above….

Morning,all. While I’ll merrily continue to put on a fixed odds coupon on occasion and enter my selections into whichever of the predictor competitions I’m in,my days of the optimistic…

It’s the most important of the least important things, this game we love, and gather here and elsewhere to discuss. For some their team can run their lives, some aren’t…

This wee tale was inspired, not by the 10CC song, but by a response from ATOB to one of my recent posts. She outlined the lengths she went to to…

120 years ago … our favourites had no games 130 years ago ( no league games … again!) So, we skip on a decade to 1902 month where we played…

Morning,all. Only a fortnight ago,I said this about G-Mak in the article.  “When he starts scoring as well,this lad will be a sensation for us.” Mind you,I also said that…

The above title was courtesy of our esteemed poster Rebus, printed just after final whistle, hope you don’t mind Sir. But it sums up our current predicament in a nutshell….

He’s tried, and going by the Bodo result and performance, he’s failed. Actually it’s more than just the Bodo game, we’ve been more cold than hot for a sequence of…

Morning,all. Many of you will have noted the optimistic slant to yesterday’s article,but that didn’t last very long! In truth,I did not see last night’s result coming-but it didn’t take…

Morning,all.  Ange Postecoglu has done what many Celtic managers have done,and that is to keep our club in Europe after Christmas. How I wish our voters had managed to keep…

130 years ago …and on this day (Tuesday) The Hoops … err, I mean…. The Stripes, are reflecting on a 10 goal trouncing of Battlefield at Celtic Park the previous…

Morning,all. We all remember the pre-season video clip of AP rousing his troops at training,reminding them that they do the business on the training ground and on the match day. …

It’s not the first time the bigger team hasn’t fully shown up for lower league opposition, and it won’t be the last.Who knows why,,Not as motivated,,Thinking they simply need show…

Toughest what Mahe?Month? League in general? Opponent?Nope. None of the above. It struck me during the week after we overcame the Jambo’s that choosing this season’s Player of the Year…

Morning,all. Late on parade again! I read an article by Martin Samuel in The Daily Mail-aye,I know!-which was adapted from an interview with Wayne Rooney. In it,he admitted to some…

Morning,all. Once again,my apologies for the delay in posting this. Post-match articles aren’t quite as easy as when I was working! Another thing that’s not so easy,it seems,is playing in…

Another departure from the usual 3 match review, as there is so much press coverage of this important game in our unbroken history. 130 Years ago … 1892 And we…

Morning,all. Our mean streak continued on Sunday with another clean sheet-and Big Joe must be casting glances at Fraser Forster’s record of 24 of them almost a decade ago-and an…

Relentless. Machine-like. Supreme. Entertaining. Unstoppable.   Take your pick or add your own, I think all of the above could summarize this particular Celtic team. There’s only one word missing,…

The midweek points haul was very, very significant indeed, I’m sure you would agree.But would you agree Sundays three points are equally important?   Momentum swung around 8.30pm Wednesday evening,…

Morning,all. I mentioned on Tuesday the fiasco that the rounds of fixtures has thrown up,that as the league stands,Celtic will have played the entirety of the rest of the top…

Morning,all. And what a fine morning it is too. God is in His heaven,and all is right with the world. Not only did we scud the huns last night,we went…

A wee departure from the usual…. Rearranged Ne’erday Derby Fixtures …are thin on the ground, especially against Sevco, (seeing as we’ve only been in the same league as the new…

Morning,all. I was down the pub on Saturday with a few friends,watching the game from Dingwall. There were one or two other Celtic supporters and even a Hibs fan-aye,really!-but no…

Them’s the breaks. Every season shall see an element of luck and some of the opposite, Saturday it was our turn for the rub of the green, while happily rubbing…

I honestly had this article and title in mind before the news of our Dutch legends passing. I’m happy about that fact.   He brought a smile to my face…

Morning,all As this is my final article before the close of the transfer window,and I very much doubt that we will be adding any more players to the squad this…

Morning,all. Aye,we really did make heavy weather of that last night,didn’t we? Absolutely cruised the first half,and much of the opening exchanges of the second half,then we seemed to run…

130 years ago — 1892 on this day (Tuesday), Celts have just dispatched Cowlairs in the Cup and are now preparing for their first trip to Cambuslang on league championship…

Morning,all.  Saturday saw us subjected to an unofficially sanctioned bout of kick boxing. I’ve only once in my life came up against a kick boxer,about thirty years ago in Stafford….

I should have known. It was going too swimmingly. The nation’s largest club had found the man with a plan, was producing scintillating footie, and looked set to rise above…

Morning,all.  Today sees Celtic embark on the quest to reclaim another of our trophies so casually frittered away last season. We start off against Alloa at The Indodrill Stadium-no,me neither-against…

Morning,all. Apologies firstly for yesterday,and that the mess was allowed to continue for as long as it did. Next time,I would really appreciate a text from someone to let me…

The midweek games provided more than a couple tales of the unexpected, something always to be happy about.It’s always nice to be reminded football is not played on paper and…

130 years ago …On this day (Monday) our Bhoys are resting having completed a triumvirate of friendlies since the turn of the New Year. It is still unclear why the…

Morning,all. I mentioned at the end of last week that it had been a long wait since we last saw The Hooooops,but bhoy was it worth the three weeks it…

I’ll be approaching the 2nd half of the season almost exactly how I approached the 1st, with zero expectations of ultimate victory. Despite having assembled probably the best squad in…

Twelve clubs with a squad and a pitch, 11 men each on the day with three subs max, play spread over three quarters of a year, a bunch of refs…

Morning,all. Although we haven’t yet reached the middle of January,our long wait-it will be over three weeks-is almost over,and we can look forward to seeing our team once more. That…

Morning,all. To conclude my summary of the transfer window to date is really to pin our hopes on our new Japanese Bhoys who along with Kyogo make up a quartet…

130 years ago …. it’s now 1892. The club are halfway through their fourth full season 1891/92 and have already made a huge impact on the Scottish game. Challenging the…

Morning,all. Today’s title certainly does not refer to the average Celtic supporter’s opinion of the transfer window so far. About a third of the way through it,and I’m considering taking…

The weekend chat has been informative, and much more is needed to really flush out what is necessary and what can actually be sold to the masses. At the moment…

In case you missed it our esteemed friend Auldheid managed to finally lay out his saga from start to date and it’s essential reading. While a lot is legal-ese, there’s…
