The Bhoys wrap up the Podcast and head down memory lane to 1999 and both their experiences on a Sunny Evening on the Terraces of Cardiff’s Ninian Park when Celtic beat Cwbran Town 6-0. A tale of two buses and one boat very little sleep and plenty of laughs.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a rare genetic condition that causes muscles to weaken over time.

It is linked to a lack of dystrophin, a protein that helps keep muscles strong and working as they should. Without enough dystrophin, muscles are more easily damaged and gradually become weaker.

Duchenne usually affects boys and symptoms often appear in early childhood. It is a progressive condition, which means it changes over time and can affect mobility, strength, energy, the heart and breathing muscles.

Friends and Family have rallied round to help Paul and to raise money and awareness. A website has been set up to give information and to raise money through donations and sales of merchandise

On Friday September 18^th the charity is hosting a Golf Classic at Cathkin Braes Golf Course.

Tom Watson once said a great golf course not only frees but challenges a golfer’s mind and the stunning setting of Cathkin Braes offers the perfect environment to do both.

Founded in 1888 and later redesigned by the acclaimed James Braid, it is the oldest golf course in Glasgow. The 6200-yard, par 71, moorland course is, despite its name, relatively flat but there are some tricky tree-lined holes, such as the par-3 fifth where you must overcome a loch to reach the well-protected green.

Although situated only five miles from the centre of Glasgow, it is in the middle of the countryside and widely regarded as one of the best inland courses in the West of Scotland.

Entry for a team of 4 costs £600 or team of 3 with a former player/celebrity. Guest Golfers confirmed include Paul McStay, Scott Brown, Tom Boyd, Simon Donnelly, Jackie McNamara, Cillian Sheridan, Joe Miller, Joe Ledley, Derek Riordan, Bobby Petta, Charlie Mulgrew, James McFadden and Tommy Johnson.

Arrive at 08:15am Tee Off is Shotgun at 09:15am

The Golf will be followed by Buffet Lunch, Prize Giving, Raffle and Auction hosted by Comedian Des Clarke. To book Email Liam Donnelly liam150a@gmail.com

On Saturday 19^th September the charity has organised a Charity Evening at the Kerrydale Suite at Celtic Park. A table of 10 costs £800. Music is by Raglan and Danny & Cooney. Special Guest speaker and some surprise guests.

On the night there will be an Auction. There will be many great offers up for grabs including a bespoke painting by renowned artist Willie Anderson and a signed All Ireland 2026 champions Limerick jersey.

Fra Hughes from Palestine aid, acknowledged the donation saying 50 families would now be fed due to the donation. Collie Bell as usual thanked us and for all involved in their endeavours, raising such an amount.

We, the owners, and management at Rosie Maguires, would also like to thank all who attended the festival for their contributions to these two fantastic charities.

Vicenç has followed Høgh’s development as a striker, he talks about the reasons why Celtic have decided to invest so heavily in him. He provides listeners with an in-depth understanding of his playing style, his strengths, and whether he has what it takes to succeed in Scottish football.

He believes he is one of the most effective penalty-box strikers to emerge from Scandinavian football in recent years. While he is not a forward who dominates matches through his involvement in build-up play, he is exceptionally opportunistic in front of goal. His greatest strength is his instinct inside the penalty area, although he also possesses a strong ability to play with his back to goal and bring teammates into the game.

They chat about his outstanding performances in European competitions. Høgh proved that he can deliver against top-level opposition, not only in the UEFA Champions League but especially in the UEFA Europa League, where he finished as the competition’s top scorer. Those performances were a major factor in attracting interest from clubs across Europe and ultimately convincing Celtic to make such a significant financial investment.

Vicenç talks about transfers into a broader context by analysing how players leaving Bodø/Glimt have performed elsewhere. Footballers such as Patrick Berg at Lens or Jens Petter Hauge during his spell at AC Milan, Eintracht Frankfurt and KAA Gent.

They have experienced mixed fortunes after leaving Norway. He believes this is a particularly relevant angle given the sizeable fee Celtic have paid for Høgh, as it raises the question of whether he can become the exception and successfully replicate his Bodø/Glimt form at a bigger club.

The post Kasper Høgh Playing Style, Strengths & What he will bring to Celtic appeared first on Celtic Fanzine.

He was not long signed and he was modelling all 3 of Celtic’s new jerseys for this season for Celtic’s marketing department.

He comes with a big price tag and arrives at the club fit and ready with the Norwegian league well into it’s season.

After Daizen Maeda was sold for the £10 million to Ipswich. The deal was completed for Høgh for in the region of £11 million. A clever piece of business one in one out but Martin O’Neill still needs further investment to build his team.

Celtic fans came together to thank LauraLynn Ireland’s Children’s Hospice for the care they gave to his daughter Penny before she sadly passed away.

Thomas opened up on his mental health after the loss of Penny and the impact of the counselling provided by the charity to him and how a bus and boat to Glasgow and Celtic Park has had such a positive effect on his mental well being.

The sight of Celtic fans celebrating in Ibrox was just too much for a section of the rangers support who also came on to the pitch wearing balaclavas to attack the celebrating Celtic fans, players and staff. They had to run from one end of the pitch to the other to start the trouble.

After the game sections of the Scottish media tried their hardest to tar both sets of fans with the same brush which anyone who watched the scenes unfurl knew it was one set of fans celebrating and one set of fans looking for trouble. But the media in Scotland reported it to suit their agenda.

On Tuesday the SFA published a report on the game. Celtic’s interim Chairman Brian Wilson responded through the clubs official website.

“This is a thorough piece of work which provides all parties involved with food for thought and action.

“We welcome the repeated emphasis on the primacy of safety above all other considerations, a message consistent with Celtic’s approach in all it does.

“Celtic made its strong objections to important elements of matchday planning very clear, well in advance of the match.

“While we remain in dispute regarding certain points within this review, our club does not shrink from criticisms contained in the report or the lessons to be drawn. Nobody should, since the potential implications of disregarding them are obviously serious, both for safety and for football.

“We continue to believe that the non-violent incursion by a small number of Celtic supporters following the conclusion of the Scottish Cup quarter-final was not, in itself, a major or threatening incident.

“However, the actions by a section of the home support, some of them masked and carrying weapons, and subsequent attacks on our supporters and staff, were deeply concerning and we remain puzzled as to why the actions recommended by the Safety Advisory Group of Glasgow City Council were overturned at a senior level within Police Scotland.

“This has left a vacuum in the role previously understood by consent to be occupied by the Safety Advisory Group. Accordingly, we welcome the recommendation that the status of Safety Advisory Groups should be formalised and strengthened.

“While this was, of course, an away fixture for Celtic, we will seek to learn lessons of value to our own operations and co-operate fully with the authorities in doing so.”

The Bhoys also chat about the state of play over the summer months at Celtic as they wait to get back to Glasgow when the competitive season kicks off on Monday 03 August.

Thomas was in Tolka Park for the Celtic v Shelbourne game recently and praised Celtic for visiting a Woman’s refuge in Dublin which is supported by the Celtic FC Foundation and Crumlin Children’s Hospital during their time in the Irish capital.

With so many things right at Celtic how has Dermot Desmond and those he has running the club got it so wrong? Former Celtic Captain, Paul Lambert has now echoed the views of the Celtic support.

The club needs to shake up and modernise which is what the club’s fan base want and deserve. Under Dermot Desmond’s micro management style modernisation of OUR club will not happen.

The bhoys also go down memory lane to past visits to Dublin to see Celtic over the years and the special memories that spring back to mind when Celtic have come over to Ireland.

The post This is Celtic / More than a Football Club appeared first on Celtic Fanzine.

Celtic have only brought in one new face so far this summer with Camilio Duran arriving and scoring 2 goals from 2 games in pre-season. Maybe this will remind the Celtic board how important it is to get players signed early so they are up to speed for both domestic and European campaigns come August.

Alex Oxlade Chamberlain has re-signed after a short term deal last season. Celtic CEO Michael Nicholson is struggling to sign players because he can not deal with Agents.

In this day and age every footballer has an agent so I think he should re-think his career as Celtic need someone in the building capable of dealing with agents and get deals over the line.

The micro management of Dermot Desmond of everything that happens at the club will not be helping him either and Martin O’Neill’s charm with the media can only last so long if he is not backed in this transfer window. The Celtic manager spoke after the Middlesborough game and hinted that some deals for players may get over the line this week.

Lambert also had a pop at Daizen Maeda for only turning up for the last six games of the season. Maeda is looking to head south to England and pastures new since that remarkable end to the season.

Maeda was signed by Ange Postecoglou and since the Australian’s  time at the club Celtic have struggled to sign first team ready players through a failed recruitment system which has been without a head of recruitment since Paul Tisdale was sacked after the Wilfried Nancy fiasco back in January.

Postecoglou has joined another former Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers in Saudi Arabia and the transfer window opens on Wednesday 22 June over there. With the state of play the way it is at Celtic, Callum McGregor may be tempted to join one of his former managers and make the switch which would see him earn a big payday and weaken further the Celtic first team playing pool.

Lambert went onto say ““If you don’t spend, you stand still,”  “That’s always the key. You have to improve.

“I have seen Celtic; they are nowhere near good enough at this moment in time. Nowhere near it. I think everybody recognises it and knows it.

“The manager knows it, and whatever players come in and help them. That’s why I said they need ready-made players.

“The infrastructure has to be so important for them to do that. But they need ready-made players who know how to win football matches, because you won’t get away with it. Not this time.”
