Another defeat. Another woeful performance. And another week of uncertainty at Celtic Park. Sunday's 2-0 defeat to Falkirk has piled the pressure on Martin O'Neill, with Celtic struggling for form and supporters increasingly frustrated by the lack of leadership and direction at the club. But is changing the manager really enough? With confidence in those making the big decisions at an all-time low, who's actually going to take responsibility for turning things around? We get stuck into the Falkirk fallout, O'Neill's future, the bigger problems behind the scenes, and another lively round of The Weekly Hot Takes! Celtic are stuck in limbo. Everyone can see that something needs to change. But who's actually going to make it happen? ____________________________ 🍀 MORE FROM THE CELTIC EXCHANGE For access to our Patreon channel, exclusive additional content, and information on how to book your very own Your Celtic Story recording, visit: 👉 https://thecelticexchange.com/links Learn more about your ad choices.

Celtic keep winning, keep picking up points, and sit four clear at the top of the Premiership. So why are we still worried? Another three points at Easter Road, another goal for Camilo Duran, but another disappointing European defeat against Celta Vigo into the bargain. Just what do we make of Martin O'Neill's Celtic right now? Tino is joined by James, Paddy and Mif as the lads discuss Celtic's contrasting fortunes, some big selection dilemmas and whether we're giving the Bhoys enough credit for their domestic form. There's also another lively round of The Weekly Hot Takes, with tepid/lukewarm opinions and a few inevitable disagreements! Celtic keep finding ways to win. But are we as good as the league table suggests? ________________________ 🍀 AT THE END OF A STORM — THE FAIRYTALE The incredible response to our end of season documentary continues!

Seven goals. Three points. And a performance that no-one saw coming! Just days after a sobering European defeat to Benfica, Celtic produced a stunning response by dismantling Hearts 7-1 at Celtic Park. A result that sent the Bhoys four points clear at the top of the table and gave fans good reason to smile again after a rough few weeks. Tino and the team are back for another lively Celtic Exchange Weekly, looking back at Sunday's extraordinary performance, the re-emergence of Callum Osmand, the growing influence of Mika Baur, and the increasingly interesting selection dilemmas facing Martin O'Neill. But how do we explain the contrast between Celtic's European struggles and their devastating domestic form? And with Celta Vigo next up at Celtic Park, can the Bhoys build on Sunday's momentum when it matters most? Seven goals against Hearts was some statement. But was it a one-off, or have we just witnessed the start of something special? Plenty of opinions, a few disagreements and lots to get stuck into on this week's Celtic Exchange Weekly! _________________________ 🍀 SUPPORT ELLA'S INCREDIBLE JOURNEY Ella Stensdotter has completed her remarkable 1,000-mile walk from Sweden to Celtic Park, raising funds for Celtic FC Foundation.

After three weeks of doom, gloom and just about everything else, Celtic are finally back in business! A 2-0 win over Motherwell at Fir Park, three points in the bag, a return to the top of the table - and the small matter of Jota making his long-awaited return to competitive action. A decent Sunday afternoon, all things considered! Tino is joined by James and Brydo for the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly as the Bhoys get back to winning ways and give supporters some much-needed reasons to smile. The lads discuss what changed against Motherwell, some increasingly interesting selection dilemmas for Martin O'Neill, and just how big an impact the returning Jota could have in the weeks and months ahead. But with tougher challenges on the horizon, including a European trip to Benfica, the big question remains... Have Celtic finally turned a corner, or are we getting a bit carried away after one overdue victory? 🎙️ Tune in now to the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly and join the debate! ________________________ MORE FROM THE CELTIC EXCHANGE 🎙️ Your Celtic Story - Record your own Celtic story with us, or gift the experience to a loved one: https://thecelticexchange.com/yourcelticstory 🍀 Join our Patreon community for more Celtic Exchange every single day: https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s been an eventful weekend around Celtic, with protests, club statements, counter statements, and plenty of debate over what happens next. Tino, James and Brydo discuss the protest involving Dermot Desmond at St Andrews, whether it crossed a line, and whether Celtic’s strongly worded response has helped or simply added to the tension. We also look at the Celtic Fans Collective’s response, the wider relationship between supporters and the club, and the bigger question of where all of this goes from here. Plus, following our recent interview with David Low, we discuss the suggestion that Celtic are at an “inflection point” — and there’s also reaction to Brendan Rodgers’ sold-out Glasgow event in June 2027. 🎙️ Catch all of the above and more in the latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly ________________________ MORE FROM THE CELTIC EXCHANGE 🎙️ Your Celtic Story — Record your own Celtic story with us, or gift the experience to a loved one: https://thecelticexchange.com/yourcelticstory 🍀 Join our Patreon community for more Celtic Exchange every single day:https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

David Low returns to The Celtic Exchange for a no holds barred conversation on Celtic’s finances, the boardroom, the forthcoming AGM and whether the club could now be approaching an important “inflection point”. With Celtic posting a £4.8m loss and Champions League income once again absent, David gives his view on the club’s financial position - but also on the bigger questions surrounding Celtic’s leadership, direction and willingness to evolve. We also look ahead to the AGM, Celtic Supporters Limited’s proposed shareholder resolution, Brian Wilson’s position as interim chairman and the wider issue of supporter influence. And on Dermot Desmond, David is clear on where he believes the real power at Celtic still lies - while also discussing what the club could potentially be worth if ownership were ever to change. Also discussed: "Managed decline” New Directors Mark Keane and Raymond Buchanan Celtic Supporters Ltd & The Celtic Season Ticket Alliance Trust Brendan Rodgers & Willie Haughey Takeover Rumours The Future Ownership of Celtic A fascinating and occasionally hard-hitting conversation about where Celtic are now - and what may come next. ________________________ MORE FROM THE CELTIC EXCHANGE 🎙️ Your Celtic Story — Record your own Celtic story with us, or gift the experience to a loved one: https://thecelticexchange.com/yourcelticstory 🍀 Join our Patreon community for more Celtic Exchange every single day: https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

Record Your Celtic Story: https://thecelticexchange.com/yourcelticstory _______________________ Every Celtic supporter has a story. This is Mif’s - and, just as importantly, it’s now Jacob and Ben’s too. In this first episode of Your Celtic Story, Tino sits down with Mif and his two sons to talk about the memories, the people and the moments that have shaped their lives as Celtic supporters. From their earliest games, to the rituals of now going to Celtic Park together, this is less about results and trophies and more about the memories that get passed from one generation to the next. That’s the idea at the heart of Your Celtic Story. A chance to sit down, take some time, and properly record the stories that might otherwise only ever be told in fragments - on the way to the game, in the pub afterwards, or around the family table. The finished recording becomes something special to keep, to share with family, and to look back on years from now. For Mif, Jacob and Ben, this is their Celtic story so far. Yours will be completely different - and that’s exactly the point.

There might not have been a Celtic game this weekend, but there’s still plenty to get into. Martin O’Neill remains in charge, Celtic remain top of the league, and with the international break still dragging on, the big question is whether the manager can use this time to steady things after three straight defeats. What has to change first, who formation is the way ahead, and how important could the returns of Alistair Johnston, Yang and eventually Jota prove? We also take a closer look at Celtic’s latest financial results, with revenue down sharply, operating costs up, a pre-tax loss recorded - and yet £66.4m still sitting in the bank at year-end. What does that actually tell us about the club’s strategy? What are Celtic trying to achieve? And how should supporters interpret another set of figures that raise as many questions as answers? And finally with the Tennents Sixes returning, we finish on something a bit more fun by picking our ultimate Celtic six-a-side teams from any era. 🎙️ Tino's joined by James, Brydo and Paddy to discuss all of that and more on this week’s Celtic Exchange Weekly. ________________________ MORE FROM THE CELTIC EXCHANGE 🎙️ Your Celtic Story — Record your own Celtic story with us, or gift the experience to a loved one: https://thecelticexchange.com/yourcelticstory 🥾 Follow Ella’s 1,000-mile journey from Sweden to Celtic Park: @ellastensdotter on Instagramhttps://www.justgiving.com/page/ella-stensdotter-1 🍀 Join our Patreon community for more Celtic Exchange every single day:https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

Ella Stensdotter is currently in the middle of an incredible journey - walking 1,000 miles from Helsingborg in Sweden to Celtic Park in Glasgow, all in support of Celtic FC Foundation. Starting in the hometown of Henrik Larsson, her route takes her through five countries before she eventually reaches the Brother Walfrid statue at Celtic Park in October. But this is about far more than the miles. Ella decided to take on the challenge after a difficult period in her life, when walking became a way of rebuilding confidence in herself and regaining a sense of control. What began as something deeply personal has since grown into an inspiring fundraising journey - driven by her love of Celtic, the club’s charitable roots, and a desire to give something back. We caught up with Ella while she was making her way through England to talk about the highs and lows of life on the road, the kindness she’s encountered along the way, her connection with Celtic, and what it will mean when she finally walks those last few steps towards Celtic Park.

Three games. Three defeats. One goal scored, seven conceded and 42 shots faced! Celtic’s season has taken a turn for the worse in the space of just over a week - and suddenly Martin O’Neill’s future is right at the centre of the conversation. Following his striking post-match comments, could the Celtic manager now decide to walk away during the international break? Or does he still feel he can be the right man for the job? We also re-visit Celtic’s summer transfer window and ask whether the squad has genuinely been strengthened. Were players recruited for a clear tactical plan, or have Celtic simply assembled a group of individuals and hoped it would all click? And if O’Neill does decide to move on, what direction should the club take next - another familiar “safe pair of hands”, or something more ambitious? 🎙️ Tino's joined by James, Brydo and Conor to discuss the growing uncertainty around the manager's position, our latest round of poor recruitment — and what may happen next! __________________ 🍀 Get more from The Celtic Exchange EVERY SINGLE DAY on our Patreon Channel 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

There are some periods in Celtic's history that every supporter knows inside out. And then there are others packed with incredible characters, remarkable stories and moments that have somehow slipped through the cracks. The 1950s might just be one of them. In this special episode, Tino sits down with Celtic historian and author Matt Corr to take a fascinating journey through a decade featuring some of the biggest names and most important moments in the club's history. From the brilliance and personality of Charlie Tully, to the arrival of a Jock Stein the player, the Coronation Cup triumph and a Celtic packed with outstanding footballers, Matt brings the era to life with stories and detail that even the most knowledgeable Celtic supporters may never have heard before. But this isn't simply a walk through the famous moments. We get into what Celtic Football Club was actually like during the 1950s, why a team containing so many great players didn't achieve even more, the personalities behind the legends, the club's identity away from the pitch and some of the sliding-door moments that would ultimately shape everything that came afterwards. We also hear about Matt's incredible research process for his new Celtic In The Fifties books - including discoveries that surprised even him! If you love Celtic history, this one's an absolute must-watch. 🍀 Tino sits down with Matt Corr for a brilliant conversation about one of the most fascinating and overlooked decades in Celtic's story. 🔗 Celtic In The Fifties by Matt Corr is available now at https://celticstarbooks.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Celtic’s perfect domestic start came crashing to an end at Ibrox with a damaging 3-0 defeat to Rangers - but the manner of the loss was every bit as concerning as the scoreline. Tino, James, Paddy and Mif were in the studio to discuss a performance where Celtic were outfought, outthought and offered almost nothing going forward. Was this simply one terrible afternoon or - following the collapse against LASK - is a bigger pattern starting to emerge when this team is put under serious pressure? We also look at Celtic’s midfield balance, the lack of a genuine defensive presence, and what Martin O’Neill now needs to change as his side prepare for a huge week that could tell us plenty about how this team responds to adversity. 🎙️ Catch all of the above and more in the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly ________________ 🍀 Get more from The Celtic Exchange EVERY SINGLE DAY on our Patreon Channel. 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

There’s plenty to get stuck into on this week’s Celtic Exchange Weekly as the dust settles on the summer window and attention turns firmly to what this new-look Celtic side might be capable of. With the squad now assembled, we ask the big question: are Celtic now stronger than the team that won the Double last season? There’s certainly more attacking depth, more variety and plenty of competition for places - and with four big games coming up across the next couple of weeks, this could be the spell that really launches the season. We take a closer look at Celtic’s exciting forward options, the combinations Martin O’Neill now has at his disposal, and just how high the ceiling might be for this group if everything starts to click. There’s also time to say a proper goodbye to Reo Hatate, reflecting on some brilliant memories from his time in the Hoops and the impact he made during a hugely successful spell at the club. And finally, there’s a birthday to celebrate! Mif celebrates the 26th anniversary of his 21st, so naturally we mark the occasion in the only way we know how - with a bit of Celtic chat, a few laughs and a Wiggles The Caterpillar Cake! 🙌🐛🎂 _______________________ 🍀 For more Celtic Exchange throughout the week - and news of the launch of our upcoming 'Your Celtic Story' offering - join us on Patreon 👇 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

Questions From The Green Room replaces the usual Celtic Exchange Weekly this week, as Tino goes solo to answer questions sent in by members of our Patreon community. With the transfer window entering its final stages, there’s plenty to get into - from what Celtic still need to do in the market, the mood around the club following last week's disaster in Austria, and other key questions facing Martin O’Neill in the weeks ahead. It’s a wide-ranging Celtic Q&A, driven entirely by the questions that matter most to supporters right now. 🍀 Want to get involved in future episodes and join the conversation?

Celtic have one foot back in the Champions League proper - but there’s still a job to finish. Tino, James and Conor look back on the huge 3-0 win over LASK at Celtic Park and ask whether Celtic should now be completely confident of seeing the tie through in Austria. With Alistair Johnston ruled out, Auston Trusty a doubt and a place in the Champions League on the line, will O’Neill stick with the side that did the damage at Celtic Park - and just how important could that first goal be? The boys also discuss Colby Donovan after a massive night for the young full-back, while Viljami Sinisalo’s growing influence - and his claim to the No.1 shirt - comes under the spotlight. Elsewhere, we look at Reo Hatate’s Celtic future and the midfield options Martin O’Neill could still add before the transfer window closes. With several names continuing to be linked, just how much business could Celtic realistically have left to do? 🎙️ Join Tino, James & Conor as they cover all of the above and more on the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. __________________________ 🎬 Watch Episode One of At The End Of A Storm FREE on YouTube    • At The End Of A Storm | Episode One - The ...   🔒 Episode Two & Three are available now exclusively on Patreon: https://thecelticexchange.com/patreon 🛞 Visit Cameron Commercials for all your commercial vehicle sales & hire needs https://cameroncommercials.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Celtic are just three games into the new season - but already the biggest test of the campaign is upon us. Austrian champions LASK arrive at Celtic Park on Wednesday night for the first leg of our Champions League play-off, and the big question is simple: are Celtic ready - or are we gambling once again? With Arne Engels now a West Ham player, gaps still remaining in the squad and several new signings only just through the door, Tino, James and Paddy assess where Celtic stand ahead of a massive European night. We look at the threat posed by an in-form LASK side, debate whether Celtic have enough firepower to take control of the tie at home, and ask whether Mika Baur could be thrown straight into the starting XI. Elsewhere, Benji Nygren's flying start comes under the spotlight after 3 goals and 3 assists in his opening 3 games, while we discuss the uncertain futures of others such as Reo Hatate and Tony Ralston following a summer of major squad turnover. 🎙️ It's a huge week for Celtic - and we cover it all in this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. __________________________ 🎬 Watch Episode One of At The End Of A Storm FREE on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7SSOFvY7sU 🔒 Episode Two & Three are available now exclusively on Patreon: https://thecelticexchange.com/patreon 🛞 Visit Cameron Commercials for all your commercial vehicale sales & hire needs https://cameroncommercials.com/ 🍀 And as always let us know your thoughts on this episode in the comments.

George Connolly remains one of the most fascinating figures in Celtic’s history. A hugely gifted footballer who won seven league titles, three Scottish Cups and two League Cups, made 254 appearances for Celtic and famously scored against Leeds United in the 1970 European Cup semi-final. Yet for decades, his story has so often been framed around phrases like “what might have been”, “wasted talent” and “if only…” Filmmaker Ged Fitzsimmons wants to change that. In this special episode of The Celtic Exchange, Ged joins Tino to discuss his forthcoming documentary 'George Connolly: Far From The Madding Crowd' and why George’s story deserves to be told properly. We explore his extraordinary Celtic career, his relationship with Jock Stein, his part in the Quality Street Gang and the circumstances surrounding his eventual departure from the club. But this is about far more than football. It’s also a story about mental health in the 1970s, men in crisis, the impact on their families and why those themes have made this such a personal project for Ged. With the film now edging closer to completion, Ged also explains the challenges still facing the project, George’s own feelings about seeing his story brought to the big screen and how Celtic supporters can help get it over the line. The story of a remarkable Celtic player - and, more importantly, the man behind the footballer. ========================== 🍀 See how you can play your part in the George Connolly Project here: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/george-connelly-celtic-film Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s been quite the start to life at Celtic for Kasper Høgh. Two games into his Celtic career and our new No.9 has already bagged a hat-trick, making an immediate impact on the side and showing that he means business in Glasgow.   Nobody’s getting carried away just yet, obviously… although 40 goals this season and a place alongside Jimmy McGrory as one of our greatest every strikers now seem absolutely inevitable.   In this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly we discuss:   🍀 THE KASPER HØGH EFFECT   What has Celtic’s new striker brought to Martin O’Neill’s side, what made the difference for him at Rugby Park, and could the arrival of genuine width make him even more dangerous?   ⚽ CELTIC HIT FIVE AT KILMARNOCK   Høgh grabbed the headlines, but there was plenty more to like about Celtic’s performance. Benjamin Nygren continued his impressive start, Arne Engels produced one of his strongest displays in green and white, and the champions suddenly look to have rediscovered their attacking threat.   🔄 TRANSFERS, SQUAD GAPS & CELTIC’S COMMUNICATION   With Camilo Duran and Høgh still the only two major summer arrivals, Celtic apparently hope to add another three or four players ahead of the upcoming LASK tie. We discuss where the squad still needs strengthened, the latest on Haissam Hassan, as well as the club’s reported investment in data analytics. Plus - why Celtic could be doing far more to communicate positive developments with supporters and fan media.   ⚽️ LEAGUE CUP SQUAD ROTATION?   Finally, with Dundee United awaiting at Tannadice in the League Cup this weekend, we finish by looking ahead to who should get their opportunity in that one – or should the management team resist the temptation to make changes and look to maintain our early season momentum.   🎙️ Tune in to the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly as Tino, Asim & Brydo get stuck into all the big talking points from another busy week at Celtic.

Celtic opened the new Scottish Premiership campaign with a 1-0 win over Dundee on Flag Night at Celtic Park - but did the performance match the occasion? Tino and Conor break down the result, the overall display and the competitive debuts of new arrivals Camilo Duran and Kasper Høgh. They also discuss: 🍀 What the opening game told us about Martin O’Neill’s New (ish) Look Celtic 🔑 The key areas that still need improving 💰 Celtic’s latest transfer speculation, both in and out Three points are on the board, but with that vital Champions League playoff agaisnt LASk fast approaching, we can all agree that there's still plenty of work to be done to get this squad even close to where it should be. __________________________ 🎬 Watch Episode One of At The End Of A Storm FREE on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7SSOFvY7sU 🔒 Episode Two – The Gamble is available now exclusively on Patreon: https://patreon.com/celticexchange 🍀 And as always let us know your thoughts in the comments.

The new season is almost here... and Celtic's biggest week of the summer could also be about to kick in! With just seven days until Flag Day, the panel look ahead to the start of the new campaign as Celtic close in on what looks set to be a club-record deal for Danish frontman Kasper Hogh. And further moves for Mika Baur and Haissem Hassan could also be in the pipeline as Martin O'Neill looks to transform his frontline ahead of the start of our title defence. This week we discuss: 🍀 A huge week for Celtic? We assess the imminent arrival of Kasper Hogh, what Camilo Duran has already shown in pre-season, and whether Celtic's summer recruitment is finally gathering real momentum. 🎙️ RAC. Recruitment, Ambition & Communication. Has the club turned a corner, or do the same fundamental questions remain around strategy, leadership and the relationship with supporters? 🎬 A landmark week for The Celtic Exchange. We reflect on the incredible launch of At The End Of A Storm, our premiere night at Grace's, and the response from supporters around the world 🇯🇵 Finally we say farewell to Daizen Maeda and ask if he's Celtic's greatest ever Japanese player. __________________________ 🎬 Watch Episode One of At The End Of A Storm FREE on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7SSOFvY7sU 🔒 Episode Two – The Gamble is available now exclusively on Patreon: https://patreon.com/celticexchange 🍀 And as always let us know your thoughts in the comments.

The Celtic Exchange has gone stateside - at least for a few days - as Tino and Paddy crossed the Atlantic to soak up the World Cup atmosphere in the Big Apple. The trip also provided the perfect opportunity to visit the Manhattan CSC at Ernie O'Malley's, where Club President Stevie Wright joined the lads on stage for a special live recording to discuss the latest happenings - or lack thereof - at Celtic Park. A huge thanks to Stevie, the staff and all the members for the warm welcome. It was a brilliant afternoon in fantastic company and a real pleasure to chat, debate and share all things Celtic with such a passionate group of supporters. Enjoy the episode.

Celtic's summer has finally started to move... but has it moved anywhere near enough? This week on the Celtic Exchange Weekly, we discuss the official arrival of Camilo Duran, the growing speculation surrounding Callum McGregor's surprise change of agent, and whether Celtic's communication with supporters is creating more uncertainty than reassurance. We also take a look at the appointment of new set-piece coach Ross Grant, ask whether this signals genuine modernisation behind the scenes, and debate whether lessons have really been learned from last summer's transfer window. This week's talking points include: 🇨🇴 Camilo Duran officially joins Celtic – what can supporters expect? 🅲 Martin O'Neill's response to the McGregor speculation. ⚽️ Ross Grant's set-piece goals. 🍀 Why supporters still want to hear more from the club's leadership. As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Would you keep Callum McGregor at all costs, or would you accept the right offer if one arrived? ************* 🎬 Join us on Thu 23 July at Grace's in Glasgow for the Official Premiere of 'At The End Of A Storm' 🎟️ Tickets at https://www.skiddle.com/e/42579143 Learn more about your ad choices.

It's been a relatively slow start to the summer for Celtic world, but there are finally signs that things may be starting to move. If the latest reports are accurate, we could be on the verge of completing the first two signings of the summer, with striker Camilo Duran and midfielder Alfie Devine both heavily linked with moves to Glasgow. Should those deals get over the line, they'd represent a welcome step forward after what's been a frustratingly sluggish transfer window so far. Those arrivals would come hot on the heels of the re-signing of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain - a move that's divided opinion among the support - as Martin O'Neill continues shaping his squad ahead of the new campaign. Elsewhere, Ange Postecoglou has followed a path now well worn by former Celtic managers, as he takes charge of Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League. His Celtic successor is the one that paved the way and its bizarre to think that two will soon lock horns over there in league action. While few could question the financial appeal of the opportunity, many supporters have been left somewhat saddened by the decision, of a man who professed to be all about the fooitball. Mif is very much one of those supporters 😢 We also round up the latest from the World Cup, where Auston Trusty is now Celtic's sole remaining representative as the tournament heads into its final couple of weeks. 🎙️ Join Tino, Mif & James as they discuss all of that and plenty more in this latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. =================== 🎥 Join us at the Official Premiere of 'At The End Of A Storm' on Thu 23rd July 🎟️ Tickets on sale to our Patreon Members exclusively on Tue 7th July at 12noon 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

Over the past few days Celtic have taken some small but encouraging steps that suggest there is a plan for the season ahead after all! On Saturday we heard from Martin O'Neill for the first time since his appointment as permanent manager was officially confirmed, before Sunday's announcement that former Hearts coach Ross Grant had joined the club as Celtic's first-ever dedicated set-piece coach. Neither update is groundbreaking in isolation, but both point towards progress. And with several new faces still needed before the campaign gets underway, fans will be hoping these developments are just the beginning of a much busier few weeks. Elsewhere, the World Cup heads into the knockout stages with four of Celtic's eight representatives now on their way home. We assess who enhanced their reputation on football's biggest stage, and who could now return to Glasgow with their stock considerably higher as a result. Closer to home, Celtic's first pre-season friendly is now just over a week away, with Shelbourne awaiting in Dublin on 7th July. After that, the countdown to competitive football gathers pace, with just 35 days remaining until the new season begins. The countdown is most definitely on! 🎙️ Join Tino, James and Paddy as they discuss all of that and much more in the latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. ================= 00:00 Opening Comments - Celtic Exchange Weekly 02:24 What Will Ross Grant Bring To Celtic's Coaching Team? 09:02 Is New Appointment A Step In The Right Direction For Celtic? 12:38 Martin O'Neill Interview - Will We See A Change In Formation? 18:59 O'Neill Issues "Wake Up Call" Warning To Celtic Board 22:10 Where Are Confident Levels Ahead Of The New Season 26:29 The Value Of A Full Pre-Season 28:48 What Does Success Look Like For Celtic in 2025/26? 36:32 Where Does Cameron Carter-Vickers Fit Next Season? 40:17 Will We See Any Unexpected Exits This Summer? 44:25 World Cup Celts - The Round-Up 49:27 Who Will Replace Steve Clarke As Celtic Manager? 55:44 Closing Comments - Celtic Exchange Weekly ============ 📩 Join thousands of Celtic supporters receiving our free weekly newsletter "Celtic 3-2-1" every Friday 👉 https://thecelticexchange.com/newsletter 🍀 And if you want even more Celtic from us, every single day, then check out our Patreon Channel at 👉 https://thecelticexchange.com/patreon Learn more about your ad choices.

The summer transfer window is open, the rumour mill is in overdrive, and yet Celtic supporters are still waiting for some concrete signs of what the season ahead might look like. While the focus is often on who could be arriving at Celtic Park, the reality is that interest in our biggest stars is never far away. Daizen Maeda and Arne Engels continue to attract attention, but following a series of impressive World Cup performances for Canada, could Alistair Johnston now be the next name attracting interest from further afield? Elsewhere, we check in on all eight Celtic players currently representing their countries at the 2026 World Cup, assessing how they've fared so far and what lies ahead as the tournament begins to gather pace. And for a bit of fun, we also put the panel to the test with a special Celtic At The World Cup quiz. 🎙️ Join Tino, Mif & Conor as they discuss all of that and much more in the latest edition of The Celtic Exchange Weekly. =============== 📩 Join thousands of Celtic fans receiving our free weekly newsletter "Celtic 3-2-1" every week 👇 🔗 https://thecelticexchange.com/newsletter Learn more about your ad choices.

It's been 23 days since Celtic completed a remarkable League and Scottish Cup Double at Hampden, but despite what will surely be a hugely important summer, things have remained relatively quiet in the weeks since. That may soon change. With Martin O'Neill now preparing for a full season in charge, attention will turn to the make-up of his backroom team, the challenge of defending Celtic's domestic crown, and his hopes of leading us in to Europe's top tournament once again. The summer transfer window officially opened today (15 June) and with several departures expected it should (should!) be a busy few months ahead. We discuss the key areas O'Neill needs to strengthen, the priority positions in the squad, and where the biggest concerns currently lie. Elsewhere, we check in on Celtic's World Cup contingent, with no fewer than eight players representing their countries on football's biggest stage. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, James, Paddy and Mif as they cover all of the above and more on the latest edition of Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Opening Comments - Celtic Exchange Weekly 02:43 Who Will Make Up Martin O'Neill's Backroom Staff? 12:24 The Exits Begin - Stephen Welsh, Luis Palma, Junior Adamu 17:47 Celtic At World Cup 2026 22:55 Do You Know Your Ex-Celts At World Cup 2026 26:31 Pre-Season Friendlies Confirmed 28:18 All Change At Hearts & Rangers 36:52 Celtic's Summer Of Upheaval 41:41 What Are The Priority Positions For Martin O'Neill? 47:00 Closing Comments - Celtic Exchange Weekly ============ 📩 Join thousands of Celtic supporters receiving our free weekly newsletter "Celtic 3-2-1" every Friday 🔗 https://thecelticexchange.com/newsletter Learn more about your ad choices.

The season may be over, but Celtic's work is only just beginning. Or at least it should be... While the players enjoy a well-earned break, there are major decisions to be made behind the scenes - and, so far, there's been little sign of movement. It's still early in the summer of course, but securing a manager for the season ahead - whether that's Martin O'Neill or someone else - has to be the club's top priority. The longer that uncertainty drags on, the more restless the support becomes. Beyond the dugout, expectations are growing that the coming weeks will bring significant changes to the playing squad, alongside potential developments in the boardroom. All signs point to a pivotal summer at Celtic Park. Elsewhere, no fewer than eight Celts are preparing for the World Cup, which gets underway in just a matter of days. We'll be watching closely - although whether all of them return as Celtic players remains an open question. 🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy, James and Mif as they tackle all of the above and much more in the latest edition of the Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Celtic Exchange Weekly - Opening Comments 03:37 We Want Your Footage From Our End Of Season Special 04:45 26 Years To The Day Since Martin O'Neill First Arrived At Celtic 06:59 Is It Now Martin O'Neill v Robbie Keane For The Celtic Manager's Job?23:10 Where Are Celtic Heading As A Club? 35:35 A New Project About An Enigmatic Celtic Legend 36:51 Celtic At The World Cup 43:26 Celtic FC Woman Lift The Scottish Cup in Glasgow Derby At Hampden 46:12 What Are Your Hopes For Celtic Right Now? 49:05 Closing Comments On Celtic Exchange Weekly =============== 🎥 If you have ANY footage of the season past that may be suitable for our end of season project then please send to tino@thecelticexchange.com 🍀 We're keeping it going right throughout summer on our Patreon Channel - check it all out at https://thecelticexchange.com/patreon Learn more about your ad choices.

Celtic are a club renowned for breaking new ground, and this summer looks set to bring another first with what is believed to be the first-ever football history conference dedicated to a single club. Many have helped preserve and share Celtic's remarkable story over the years, but few have contributed more in recent times than Pat Woods, Tom Campbell and David Potter - three figures whose work has been a major inspiration behind the creation of this event. Ahead of the conference, which takes place at Celtic Park on Saturday 6th June, we sat down with Celtic author Matthew Marr and acclaimed documentary filmmaker Margot McCuaig - whose credits include films on Jock Stein, Tommy Burns and Jimmy Johnstone - to discuss their involvement in what promises to be a unique occasion. Both will feature among a distinguished line-up of guest speakers on the day. In this wide-ranging conversation, we explore the importance of preserving Celtic's rich history, the challenges of passing that story on to future generations, and the role emerging technologies such as AI may play in shaping how that history is remembered and recorded.

We'll never see another season like it - which is just as well, in many ways - but in terms of pure footballing joy, it'll be almost impossible to match what we've all experienced these last few weeks. Inspired by Martin O'Neill, and with moments of magic by Daizen Maeda, Kelechi Iheanacho and others, Celtic are Double Winners once again - and our dominance of Scottish Football continues! And while O'Neill's own future at the club remains unclear, as well as the future of many of the first team squad, it's important to savour these moments before then reseting ahead of whatever challenges lay in store next season and beyond. Genuinely - without a hint of exaggeration - one of the most mind-blowing seasons in 139 years of Celtic! 🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy, Mif & Brydo as they cover many of the highlights - and some of the lowlights - of the season that was, in this latest episode of the Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Celtic Exchange Weekly - Opening Comments 04:45 The Credit This Celtic Side Deserve For What They Achieved 08:48 Should We See A Martin O'Neill Statue At Celtic Park? 19:11 The Planning For Next Season Starts Here 25:09 May 25th - The Importance Of Always Remembering Celtic's Lisbon Achievement 28:28 End Of Season Mini Quiz 32:53 MND Scotland - Win A Signed Celtic Shirt 33:37 Celtic Exchange Highlights & Lowlights Of The Season 52:37 What Should We Be Expecting From Celtic Next Season? 57:22 Closing Comments On Celtic's Double Winning Season ========= 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 MND Scotland - Signed Shirt Auction: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/236836113524 🍀 The season may be over for Celtic but our content continues on our Patreon channel all the way throughout the close season. 🔗 Check it all out at https://thecelticexchange.com/patreon Learn more about your ad choices.

It’s a day that, not so long ago, felt like it might slip away. But when it mattered most, this Celtic side found something extra - dug deep, stood tall - and now stand once again as Champions of Scotland. This has been a title built on resilience. On big moments from big characters. From Martin O'Neill driving standards, to Callum McGregor leading by example, to Daizen Maeda delivering when it counted most - and various others stepping up along the way. Every one of them, in some way, has played their part. The supporters too, deserve enormous credit. They’ve ridden every twist of a demanding season, stuck with the team through the ups and downs, and helped carry them to the finish line. Together, Celtic got the job done - and made it five league titles in a row. Now as the celebrations begin, the focus inevitably turns. What comes next for this team? What’s next for Martin O’Neill? And perhaps most intriguingly of all - where does this title rank among Celtic’s greatest title triumphs? 🎙️ We get into all of that and more in this special Champions Edition of the Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Incredibly, after everything that’s unfolded this season, Celtic now stand just two wins away from reclaiming the Scottish Premiership title. For a whole host of reasons, this has already been a season that won’t be forgotten any time soon. But should Martin O’Neill’s side get the job done in the coming days, it could yet go down as one of the most memorable campaigns of the modern era. Daizen Maeda may be grabbing the headlines following his sensational derby winner - and rightly so. The Japanese star is absolutely flying right now. But in truth, this recent resurgence has been a collective effort, with key figures like Callum McGregor, Arne Engels and Alistair Johnston all stepping up when Celtic have needed them most. There’s a real sense now that this squad is locked in, fully focused on finishing the job over the course of this final week. Much like Maeda’s wondergoal on Sunday, it’s been a season for the ages — and now, its dramatic conclusion is just days away. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they look ahead to the final week of a rollercoaster league campaign in the latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Celtic Exchange Weekly - Opening Comments 05:08 Celtic Park In Full Voice | The Fans Roar Celtic To Derby Win 11:03 Callum McGregor & Arne Engels Dominate The Midfield Battle 14:38 Yang The Man - Celtic's Unsung Hero Of The Season 20:22 Is there REALLY a Referee Conspiracy In Scotland? 28:30 The Incredible Impact Of Daizen Maeda On Celtic Title Charge 43:37 Join The Celtic Exchange For The Final Week 44:16 Celtic Are Now Two Wins From The Scottish Premiership Title 54:16 Final Comments From The Celtic Exchange Team ======================= 🍀 THE FINAL WEEK starts here.

Celtic took care of business on Sunday against Hibs, and now, following events at Tynecastle, Rangers are OUT of the title race. Its the latest twist in the tale in a race that looks like it could now go down to the final game - which of course is Celtic v Hearts on the 16th of May. We discuss what that final week may look like for Celtic as they chase down what could be a fifth successive Scottish Premiership title. Also on the agenda is our big Player Of The Yaer winner Benji Nygren, The Yang Man, and the ongoing debate over what Arne Engels brings to this Celtic side. We then round it all off with some season ticket chat, a bit of Brian Wilson, and then a glance ahead to this weekend's all-important Glasgow Derby. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they took to the mics LIVE to cover the above and more in the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Celtic Exchange Weekly - Opening Comments 04:54 What This Weekends Results Mean For Celtic, Hearts & Rangers 18:31 Celtic Win Over Hibs - Key Takeaways 26:15 Benji Nygren - Triple Winner At Celtic Player Of The Year Event 36:28 Yang The Man - His Role In Celtics Season 43:41 Arne Engels And What He Brings To This Celtic Side 54:55 Celtic's Season Ticket Renewal - The Campaign & The Communication 1:02:33 A Look Ahead to Celtic v Rangers - Sunday Glasgow Derby 1:03:33 Final Comments From The Celtic Exchange Team ============== 🍀 Want more Celtic chat, deeper dives, and bonus content every week?

We may well be witnessing the final games of Daizen Maeda in a Celtic shirt, but if the Japanese star is to move on at the end of this campaign then he looks like he wants to go out swinging, as shown by 3 goals and 2 assists in his last two outings. There's no better time of the season to find form, and with Alistair Johnston re-joining the party - as well as Arne Engles AND the Green Brigade in recent weeks - then things are looking up for our title charge. As the banner in the North Curve stated on Saturday, The Spirit of '86 is very much upon us as Celtic look to once again wrestle a title from Hearts' grasp. Elsewhere we look at new contracts, the ban on Rangers fans, and where our confidence levels stand as we head in to the final four league games of the campaign. 🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy & Conor as they cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly ==================== 🍀 Want more from Celtic Exchange each and every week?

After a chaotic 90 minutes at Hampden - a game that perfectly captured the highs and lows of Celtic’s season - everything changed in six breathtaking minutes of extra time, that just about nobody saw coming. In the end, it delivered more than just a dramatic win. It booked a return to Hampden next month and, perhaps more importantly, reignited belief in this squad ahead of this nail-biting title run-in. It was a incredible response in what’s been an incredible season, and now Martin O’Neill will be looking to use it as the springboard for the final six games of the campaign. It's all to play for as O'Neill and his side go all out for an unlikely league and cup double! 🎙️ Join Tino, James & Conor as they break down the late drama at Hampden and more in this very latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Welcome To Celtic Exchange Weekly Podcast – Opening Comments 01:45 Kelechi Iheanacho v Daizen Maeda - Who Starts Up Top? 06:18 Tony Ralston And His Hampden Moment 13:52 Is Callum McGregor At A Celtic Crossroads? 23:24 The Impact Of James Forrest - New Deal Pending? 26:20 Celtic's Incredible Audio Descriptive Service For Visually Impaired Fans 27:28 An Emotional Scottish Cup Final Awaits31:05 What's Martin O'Neill's Celtic Future? 43.44 Willie Haughey's Season Ticket Alliance Trust 49:14 A Look Ahead At Celtic v Falkirk, Scottish Premiership Matchday 34 55:37 Final Comments From The Celtic Exchange Team ==================== 🍀 Want more from Celtic Exchange each and every week?

The win over St Mirren at the weekend won't be featuring in any "best of" compilations in years to come, and nor should we care if it does, as Celtic again picked up another vital three points. And while many of us - ourselves included - have been waiting for this side to "turn the corner" and to really put a team to the sword, maybe that's just not going to happen this season. And maybe that's ok. So long as there's silverware at the end of it in the shape of the Scottish Premiership Trophy. And it's now abundantly clear, and maybe has been for a while, that Martin O'Neill is simply doing what he has to do in order to get us over the line. This is the deal. And if we have to grind it out between now and the end of next month, then so be it. It's the way it is. And none of us will care if it leads us to this season's ultimate goal. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, Mif, Paddy & James as the cover the above and more in this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. 00:00 Welcome To Celtic Exchange Weekly Podcast – Opening Comments 06:29 Martin O’Neill & His Celtic Legacy 09:51 This Celtic Squad IS Good Enough To Win The Title 21:20 Questions From Our Patreon Members 30:25 What Is Celtic’s Style Of Play Right Now? 37:28 What’s Your “Celtic Mount Rushmore” 40:16 Should James Forrest Be Getting More Minutes For Celtic 44:39 Should Celtic Experiment In The Scottish Cup Semi Final? 52:18 Green Brigade Back At Celtic Park 54:44 Willie Haughey’s Season Ticket Alliance 56:48 Final Comments From The Celtic Exchange Team ==================== 🍀 Want more from Celtic Exchange each and every week?

Celtic head in to the final six fixtures of the league season knowing that four of them will be at Celtic Park and just two on the road as they hunt down what would be a fifth consecutive Scottish Premiership title. It's a massive boost to Martin O'Neill's men (and even more so if we see the Green Brigade return in time!) and one that could give them a crucial advantage over their title rivals. With the Top Six now settled, the post split fixtures could be released as early as this week and as fans we can now wait with optimism on what should (should!) be a favourable set of fixtures for Celtic. Don't confuse favourable with easy though, as the patterns of this season tell us just how difficult this run in might be. The morale boosting win at Dens Park however has put us firmly back on track and we can now look forward to this week's clash with St Mirren with renewed belief. 🎙️ Join Tino, James, Brydo and Conor as they cover all of the above and more on the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. ==================== 🍀 Want more from Celtic Exchange each and every week?

While access remains restricted for Celtic Fan Media at this time, it seems it is possible to get inside the tent if you’re Fan Media of another club, as witnessed by the announcement of an Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain exclusive by The Anfield Wrap this week. It’s been yet another puzzling decision by the cub in a season that’s been full of them. In other news the Jim Craig statue project has formally been launched and we were in attendance last week alongside the man himself and a committed group of individuals who outlined their plans to immortalise the Lisbon Lions in his hometown of Govan. Elsewhere as the players begin to return from international duty it’s all eyes on this weekend’s must win clash against Dundee with Martin O’Neill insisting that Sunday’s fixture is the only show in town for him and his players right now. And finally, a happy 27th birthday to Jota, and oh how we could have done with his talents this season. As he continues to recover from his ACL injury we wish the Portuguese star well and reflect on what he’ll hopefully bring on his long-awaited return. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, Mif, James & Paddy as the cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of the Celtic Exchange Weekly. ==================== 🍀 Want more from Celtic Exchange throughout the week?

The story of New Orleans is one of resilience, pride, and true community spirit - perhaps more than any CSC we’ve had the privilege of speaking with. In the wake of the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005, the New Orleans CSC faced an enormous challenge. Their home at Finn McCool’s was left in ruins, and rebuilding meant starting almost from scratch. But where others might have faltered, this community came together. Driven by passion and powered by volunteers, they rebuilt, not just a venue, but a hub of identity and belonging. Against the odds, Finn McCool’s reopened its doors in time for St Patrick’s Day 2009, just six months later - a remarkable achievement and a testament to their spirit. We were delighted to sit down with two key figures, Lee Kelly and Sean Kennedy, to hear what the club truly means to them - and to share in their excitement as New Orleans prepares to host this year’s Celtic Convention. Running from 8th–14th June, the Convention promises an unforgettable week packed with special Celtic events for supporters from across the globe. To be part of it, secure your tickets and discounted hotel rates at: https://neworleansceltic.com And if you’re in town, be sure to visit Finn McCool’s Irish Pub—located in Mid-City at 3701 Banks Street, New Orleans.

The defeat to Dundee United feels like a crushing blow to Celtic’s title hope - but could the enforced two-week international break offer Martin O’Neill’s side a chance to regroup and reignite the race? For fans, it means sitting with the frustration a little longer - never easy. Still, the pause might provide O’Neill with the opportunity to reset ahead of a seven-game stretch that now leaves virtually no room for error. There is at least some cause for optimism. The potential return of Alastair Johnston, Arne Engels and Julian Araujo after the break would be a huge boost to the squad, while a refreshed Callum McGregor would be a timely bonus as the season reaches the business end. Off the pitch, an intriguing question surrounds season ticket renewals, which are now just weeks away. Given how this campaign has unfolded, the club will have genuine concerns about uptake. And with so much of the damage self-inflicted, fans are right to question whether they’re being asked to invest in more of the same heading into 2026/27 and beyond. 🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif for an in-depth discussion on all this and more in the latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. =========== 🍀 Want more from Celtic Exchange throughout the week?

Celtic roared to within two points of leaders Hearts at the weekend with two goal hero Yang stealing the headlines on what was a huge win against a solid Motherwell. Much of the talk has been about Jens Berthel Askou as a future Celtic manager, but Martin O'Neill once again showed that he's still the man for now as his side picked up yet another win under his stewardship. Celtic Park also experienced an improved atmosphere on the day, though the hope remains that the Green Brigade and the club can iron out their differences for the remaining home games of the season. We also cover potential players of the year, the upcoming trip to Tannadice, as well as the Scottish based players Celtic should be considering for next season. 🎙️ Join Tino, Mif, Brydo & Conor for this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly =============== 🍀 Get more Celtic Exchange each and every week on our Patreon Channel.

It was an eventful day both on and off the field at Ibrox at the weekend and from a Celtic Exchange point of view both Mif and Paddy were there on the day to take it all in. The elation of Tomas Cvancara’s winning penalty kick was soon taken over by the concerning post-match incidents that followed and the boys shared their experience of what played out before, during, and after the game. Elsewhere we look ahead to the next challenge which is Motherwell at Celtic Park on Saturday and to some decisions that Martin O’Neill now faces after a solid defensive display at Ibrox. Finally, with the Green Brigade due to meet with the club at the start of the week we speculate on how that may all play out with just five home games remaining this season. 🎙️ Join Tino, James, Mif & Paddy as they cover all of the above and more on the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly ====================== 🗓️ A Night With Celtic Legends - The Keadeen Hotel, Kildare, Fri 22nd May 2026: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/a-night-with-celtic-legends-tickets-1981604932697 🍀 Check the all new Celtic Exchange Website at: https://thecelticexchange.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Reo Hatate stole the spotlight as Celtic’s second-half surge kept the Premiership title charge alive with just ten games to play. The Japanese midfielder dragged his side back into it at Ibrox, inspiring a deserved draw and silencing the home crowd late on - leaving Rangers wondering what might have been. Attention now switches to Pittodrie and a crucial midweek clash. Another three points are non-negotiable as the Bhoys continue to chase down Hearts at the summit. Off the pitch, there’s movement too. Willie Haughey has stepped into the frame, unveiling plans aimed at restoring unity behind the scenes. Spring may be in the air, but Celtic’s rollercoaster - on and off it - shows no sign of slowing down.

In a wide-ranging conversation, we dive into her Celtic upbringing, her journey into the world of comedy, and the two heroes who’ve played a huge role in shaping who she is today.

Defeat to Hibs has made Celtic’s title push that little bit more complicated, but with 11 games and 33 points still up for grabs, this race is far from run. There’s work to do, and concerns remain about the current squad - but it’s still all to play for. It was a setback, no doubt, yet incredibly it was Martin O’Neill’s first domestic defeat since returning this season. If anything he’ll be more determined than ever to get our challenge back on track in the games ahead. Next up - four tricky away days: Stuttgart, Rangers, Aberdeen, then Rangers again. A defining run of fixtures and one which will go a long way to determining the success of this season. Off the pitch, the standoff between the club and the Celtic Fans Collective drags on, with recent meetings producing few signs of progress. A breakthrough remains the hope but the longer it takes, the more it may be too little, too late – at least in terms of salvaging something tangible from this season! 🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy & James as they cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. ================== 🆕 Start you FREE 7 Day Trial of the Celtic Exchange on Patreon at https://patreon.com/celticexchange 🍀 More Podcasts | More Reaction | More Celtic Learn more about your ad choices.

Julian Araujo becomes the latest Celtic signing to score a dramatic late winner, coming hot on the heels of his new pals Alex Oxlade Chamberlain and Junior Adamu doing the same, and it's a goal which fires us right into the mix in this topsy turvy title race. Martin O'Neill's own impressive league record over two interim spells now stands at ten wins and one draw from eleven games (no losses!) and with a game in hand the Bhoys are sitting in a solid position with twelve games now remaining. The manager now has some massive calls to make - especially in midfield - with some vital games on the horizon across league and cup competitions, with German cracks Stuttgart next on the agenda. This wild season of Celtic's continues, and we could be set for another huge seven days, on and off the park. 🎙️ Join James, Paddy & Brydo as they cover all of the above and more in this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly. ============ 🍀 Get even more from Celtic Exchange each and every week on the Celtic Exchange Patreon Channel ➕ More Podcasts | More Reaction | More Celtic 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

We’ll look back on the chaos of this season for years to come and wonder just how so much drama unfolded both on and off the park. We'll hopefully never experience another campaign like it - but there’s still scope for Martin O’Neill and the Bhoys to turn turmoil into triumph. This week we break down the January transfer business and ask the big question: will the work be enough to carry us over the line? Is the arrival of Alex Oxlade Chamberlain a desperate roll of the dice - or a potential game-changer for the months ahead? And in the aftermath of “The Boycott,” we also explore what a realistic path forward might look like between club and supporters as tensions continue. Is there a solution staring at us right now that works for everyone and helps get things back on track? Finally, we preview a defining run of fixtures - including four away games on the spin - that should reveal everything about the character and capability of this new-look Celtic squad. 🎙️ Join Tino, Mif, Paddy & James as they tackle all this and more in the latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. ============ 🍀 Get even more from Celtic Exchange each and every week on the Celtic Exchange Patreon Channel ➕ More Podcasts | More Reaction | More Celtic 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

As has become customary, Celtic have once again taken deadline day right down to the wire, leaving supporters anxiously awaiting confirmation of the club’s January business. Martin O’Neill has already hinted that late arrivals are on the cards, so now it’s a case of trusting his judgement - alongside Shaun Maloney - and hoping any final additions can give the squad the lift it needs in the push for a fifth consecutive title. While much of the spotlight has been on potential incomings, there’s been late drama on the outgoing front too. Nottingham Forest have seen a last-ditch attempt to lure Arne Engels away from Parkhead knocked back, with a bid in the region of £25 million firmly rejected.
