Welcome to another installment “Interview With the Enemy” before Celtic’s next match against Hibernian FC on Sunday. Since the Hibs Offside blogger managed only to bust out one post before calling it quits, I had to go outside the Offside. I found the excellently run Easter Road blog run by Rich. It’s [...]

Getting to Know You: St. Johnstone FC
By: Matt | 1 Comment
While I could not find a Saints fan to pick the brain of, I still felt it appropriate to do some research and share a little bit about St. Johnstone, their history, and the like. Of course, if I make an arse of myself and get something wrong, any Saints supporters that see this [...]

Most would agree that the SPL has been a two horse race for awhile now. Celtic and Rangers have gobbled up a majority of the silverware for quite some time, yet seemingly every year there is a chic pick for another team to give the big Glasgow giants a run for their money. [...]
St. Mirren Preview

Well, Bhoys and Ghirls, the time to laugh at the idea of you realistically possibly being Gabriel Tamas’ agent, who we will (or will not sign), and friendlies with alien formations filled with reserve players is over. Tomorrow afternoon (or early early morning as in my case) the 2007/2008 Champions Flag will be raised [...]
Aideninho Finally Comes of Age
By: JT | 6 Comments
Since Aiden McGeady’s swashbuckling performance against Benfica on Tuesday, the plaudits have come pouring in. Manager Gordon Strachan hailed McGeady’s efforts as “awesome“. Celtic keeper Artur Boruc thinks the Irishman has the potential to be better than Cristiano Ronaldo. Midfield mate Paul Hartley called McGeady’s nite “one of the best wide performances” [...]

Its hard to believe that the long, hot days of summer without meaningful Celtic football are finally over. The two-time SPL & reigning Scottish Cup Champs are about 48 hours away from raising the Championship flag and kicking off the season against Kilmarnock. That makes this the right time for a preview of [...]
Lessons from the Trip to the States
By: JT | 1 Comment
The Celtic Football Club recently completed a two match, week-long trip to these United States, and while its difficult to draw too many concrete conclusions from what we witnessed during the friendlies, there are some things that are fairly obvious. Let’s start from the back:
• Artur Boruc is indisputably world class. There [...]
Meet the Celts-Jan the Man & Co.
By: JT | No Comments
Maciej Zurawski (Poland)—Magic is an oft-injured but productive player who’s consistently scored goals at every level. 22 goals in 50 appearances for the Hoops isn’t bad, and the hope is that he can be a solid partner to JV of H, but he has serious competition.
Kenny Miller (Scotland)—Kenny’s never been a fan favorite, and [...]
Meet the Celts–Masters of the Midfield
By: JT | No Comments
Scott Brown (Scotland)—The “hottest property in Scottish football” moved to Celtic from Hibs in the most expensive ever transfer between Scottish clubs. At only 21, he’s experienced, quick, tough, and energetic. He’ll be expected to make an immediate impact. Beating Rangers to his signing makes his move all the more sweet.
Paul Hartley [...]
Meet the Celts–Defenders
By: JT | No Comments
Lee Naylor (England)—The Celtic faithful were less than enthralled when Naylor signed last summer. But he’s proven to be dedicated to the shirt, hard in the tackle, and looks set to be the long term solution at left back.
Gary Caldwell (Scotland)—The former Hibs captain is a versatile defender and defensive midfielder whose introduction helped [...]
