Nothing happened at Ibrox. It was a nothing game. Nothing happened in the window. We signed one player of Celtic quality. And yet out of this nothingness the bhoys manage to create a 1-hour podcast.

Numbed by inaction, the bhoys sound more resigned than angry. Ross sets out why he believes the Head of Football Operations should take responsibility and Harry points the finger at the largest shareholder behaving like the owner and making executive decisions.

Tuesday 2nd September is the meeting of the Celtic Trust - Grace’s Candleriggs, 7pm.

It’s been some week and some start to the league and European campaigns for both teams. One club is a walking disaster. They cannot get anything right and they have a baying group of fans calling for the head of everyone and the other…nope. I’m not going to do that joke!

Celtic visit Ibrox on Sunday. We have won every domestic game played and perform…

And we’re off…. It’ season 2025/26. We’ve had the pre-season podcast and discussed whether we FINALLY managed to win the pre-season cup and now the phoney war is over the season’s beginning.

Many of the team are just returning from holiday and we’ll have some bumper pods coming up to celebrate the 20th season of the world’s longest running football fan …

Judas Part 2

Another tale from the Celtic Wiki

Last time we told the tale of the striker’s arrival at Celtic and his performances that contributed to the dramatic last day title win over Hearts.  Today we hear about the story that led so many Celts to simply call Maurice Johnstone Judas.

Enjoy…

The Celts are off to Germany this week on Champions League duty.

The Bhoys will hope to build on their fantastic 5-1 start with another good performance.

It's far from Celtic's first visit to Germany. For that, you have to go back almost 120 years.

It's a tale of boats, trains, big wins and even the death of an iconic Celt.

Judas Part 1

Another tale from the Celtic Wiki

For Celts of a certain age, there is not a name that illicits greater emotion than Mo Johnston.  Signed in a record deal in October 1984 he was part of a Celtic forward line that should have achieved even more than it did and during that spell.  He completed perhaps the greatest team goal in Celtic’s history in the 5-0 title triumph at Love Street.

He left but was set to return in a dramatic move in 1989 as Celtic set to try and wrestle the initiative back from Rangers.

The rest, as they say, is history.

When Celtic take on St Johnstone tomorrow they will be going for a remarkable league clean sheet record. Matthew from Hail Hail History tells us more.

Celtic fans will still be dreaming of the 5 goals we scored last midweek against slovan Bratislava and looking forward to the rest of the European campaign with renewed ethusiasm and a sense of expectation of what could be.

Robert Austin Thomson played for Celtic from 1929 into the 1930s alongside club legend Jimmy McGrory.  His finest year in a Celtic jersey came in 1931 when he was the star of the cup final against Motherwell.  Thomson lived a life of excess and died suddenly at the age of just 30 leaving a wife and two young children.

Celtic pulled the rabbit out of the hat that Andrew H mentioned on here and brought in players on the final day of the window - lifelong Celtic fan Luke McCowan and Belgian prodigy Arne Engels.

Signed on the last night of the window, the players both made their debuts in the comfortable Glasgow Derby win and then met with the press this week.

We have the audio and video from the meetings with the fan media.

It’s the international break and there is therefore still some football going on and we decided to use this two week fallow period to chat with a former Celt who is still playing at international level and down in the EPL.

In his chat with Andrew, Ryan covers his time at Celtic and gives an insight into how fraught a transfer window can be. He also disc…

This weekend the Celtic legends secured a penalty shoot-out victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford. This charity game saw thousands of pounds raised for the respective foundations. It was also another chapter in the annals of the famous links between both clubs and Celtic’s experiences at Old Trafford.

We therefore thought it appropriate to sneak out another tale from Hail Hail History

Another tale from the Celtic Wiki

In an ideal world, Celtic would never have been formed, because in an ideal world there would have been not poverty and discrimination.

St Mirren 0 - 3 Celtic

Celtic travelled all the way along the M8 to visit St Mirren in Paisley and ran out 3-0 winners.

The scoring began inside 3 minutes and from that point on Celtic looked comfortable and were never in any danger of dropping any points.  Three games into the season, three wins and no goals conceded (the only goal against so far was against Hibs in the League Cup).

It was two midfielders and a defender who got the goals today and the post match discussions with Brendan were all about whether we’d sign players and would they be the standard he is seeking.

We have the post game review and the post match presser by Brendan.  He’s in a good mood but bery pointed.  He knows where the issues lie and so do the executives.

Enjoy…

Celtic comfortably beat Hibs 3-1 in the Premier Sports League Cup fixture at Celtic Park today.

Following the game Harry B and Andrew H discussed the game and the general positivity about the club.

With Eddie & Harry on holiday, Andrew, Matthew & Saint Anthony run the rule over the pre-season and the summer transfer window so far.

The bhoys focus on the frustrations surrounding the transfer policy and the club's financial strategy. They explore the impact of domestic dominance on fan expectations, the importance of strategic signings, and the role of the manager and director of football in shaping the club's future.

This is part I of the two podcasts prior to the start of the new SPFL season 2025/26 - a season which is also the 20th season of the world’s longest running football fan podcast (and there’ll be more about our 20th birthday celebration coming up over the coming weeks).

Nineteenth season! Let that sink in. 19 seasons most of you have been listenning to this guff. Will you never learn? There are listeners to this podcast who weren’t born when it started. Goodness - there’s even a football club playing in the top flight that didn’t exist when this podcast started.

(You can pick up this podcast for free on this Substack app, apple, amazon, google, spotify or wherever you get your podcast listening.)

The Celtic Underground podcast gets up in the morning, looks in the mirror and thinks “who’s that old bugger looking back at me?” It looks on with a paternal smile as some of the whippersnapper podcasts trumpet their new guest providing “exclusive insight” into an event of days gone by knowing that we interviewed that guy years ago when we both had all our hair and all our marbles. Enough of this maudlin meandering, we’ve got a new season to discuss!

On Sunday 4th August at 4:30pm the proper football returns with Celtic hosting Kilmarnock in our defence of the SPFL Premiership title and as we bid for our 4th title in a row and our 14th in 15 seasons (there’s a gap there but no-one went and no-one witnessed it. If no-one saw it can we even say it happened?).

Having already bagged the pre-season cup (first time in decades) we start our campaign with the possibility of winning up to 4 major trophies. The podcast features Hullbhoy, Ross Hall, Eddie Pearson and Harry Brady. There are obvious concerns about the lack of transfer activity in and the possibility of transfers out, but in general the bhoys are in fine fettle, predicting great days ahead.

Oh and for our brand new listener in Cambodia…can’t wait to hear of your tales of advanture!

If you’ve been online recently you will have noticed an increase in the number of bloggers and tweeters (or whatever people or X are called these days) review players and talent. One of the best of these guys is Ross Hall (the scout, not the hospital).

In this podcast, Ross takes us on a journey that has seen him give up a succesful finance career and jump into the world of scouting and how and why he uses stats and uses his own eyes. Who does stats best and how they can be used to the benefit of Celtic. The chat went on for so long, we decided to postpone the analysis of the Celtic squad to next week. You never know, by then we might have actually signed an outfield player.

A Rough Justice

Another tale from the Celtic Wiki

In March 2011, Celtic & Rangers engaged in “The Shame Game”.  It was a match that involved Rangers players losing the plot and finished with the hyperbole of Alex Salmond summoning then CEOs of Celtic and Rangers (Lawwell & Bain) to a summit to discuss the bahviour of both clubs.

At the time The Human Torpedo recorded this slice of Celtic History from The Celtic wiki to look back at troubled games from the past, starting in 1949-50 season.

The Man Who Couldn’t Be Bought

Another tale from the Celtic Wiki

What is it about Jimmy McGrory that makes him one of, if not the, greatest ever Celts?

He’s our all time leading scorer with 522 goals in 501 games and holds the record for the most goals in a season, with 62 goals from 46 games.  

Although he was only five feet and six inches tall, he was renowned for his prowess and ability for headers. His trademark was an almost horizontal bullet header, which he performed and scored with regularly, and which earned him the nicknames "the Human Torpedo.”

A man the Garngad - St Rochs and Celtic, when Arsenal came calling, despite the best efforts of the board, he couldn’t be bought.  “Jimmy McGrory of the arsenal doesn’t sound right.”

French Farce

Another tale from the Celtic Wiki

The Anglo-Franco-Scottish Friendship Cup was a short-lived Inter-League football competition organised by the French Football Federation that would see teams from the English Football League and the Scottish League compete against teams from the French League.

The original idea was to have four teams from Scotland and four teams from England competing together as one nation competing against eight teams from France. Due to the objection by the Scottish League this ruling was cancelled.

Two separate trophies were cast - one for Scottish clubs competing against French clubs and one for English clubs competing against French clubs. Individual clubs could not win the competition, so each country was awarded 2 points for a win and 1 point for a draw.

Due to disagreements as to when matches should be played, neither of the matches between Celtic and Reims took place.

The Rebels have won

4th March 1994 and Fergus McCann and Brian Dempsey step out into a dark and rainy Glasgow night to make the famous declaration - The game is over, the rebels have won.

Jubilation abound and tonight, as we publish this tale from The Celtic Wiki, we remember one of the unsung heroes of that takeover battle - John Keane who sdaly passed away today - 16th June 2024.

John was the honourary Chairman of Celtic and he got that role because, with no ownership and no certainty that he wouldn’t lose every penny, John stepped up and paid £1m to the bank to save the club from the ignomy of administration and pave the way for Fergus to take over the club.

In tribute to John, we’re therefore publishing this classic tale.

Here’s a link to the club’s statement on the passing of John - https://www.celticfc.com/news/2024/june/16/celtic-pays-tribute-to-john-keane/

Enjoy…

If you’ve not already done so, please listen to Part 1 of this two part interview with Andrew H Smith on what it was really like being inside Celtic before, during and after the McCann revoltion. As he says - Fergus was a man on a mission and a man with a singular vision on how he wanted Celtic to be as a club and Andre was there, every day, documenting the process.

Enjoy - This is exclusive to paid subscribers for 1 month.

Working at Celtic During the McCann Revolution

Fergus McCann came into Celtic Park and changed everything.  He changed the board and replaced family inheritance with business acumen.  He changed the ground from seats on Terracing to a 60,000 seated stadium.  He built all the foundations that have now established Celtic as THE premier club in Scotland.  He is one of the greatest Celts in history.

The transformation in Celtic pre and post March 1994 was incredible and one of the few people with a front row seat both before and after was Andrew Smith.  working at The Celtic View he was part of the team who had to put out the messaging of the old board and their proposals for a move to Cambuslang.  He was then part of the McCann messaging as he sought to transform Celtic through a share issue and the building of a new stadium.

The tales from Andrew are incredible, and his impersonations aren't bad either.

This is a 2 part podcast.  Part one is out on our standard feed and part two will be available on TheCelticunderground.substack.com

In the past week we've had the league secured at Rugby Park, a title party at Celtic Park rounded all off with the Cup Final at Hampden on the iconic date of 25th May.  Who else could I ask to discuss this than full-kit Jow Hart love-in man Remy McSwain.

Remy and I review everything and jump all over the place because an easy verbal ramble through the past 10 days became a rushed preview and review because the IT set up/wifi crashed.

The audio is good because the crap bits are editted out.

Following securing the league, Andrew Smith met with Celtic FC Foundation CEO Tony Hamilton to ask about the work of the Foundation and discuss the forthcoming charity game against the Dortmund Legends.

Andrew asks searching questions such as - aren't all chairtie just a tax on the poor?  But Tony robustly defends the work of the Foundation and the input of the club who are by far the biggest contributors to The Foundation.

Winners…again

This Saturday saw the final Glasgow Derby of the league campaign and for listeners to last week’s podcast the result will have come as no surprise.  Despite the comments of pundits, this is a game where form does not go out of the window.  It is a game that the form team (or more appropriately the better team) nearly always win.

Celtic are the better team.  Celtic won.

Whilst the league is not mathematically secured, we’re almost there being 6 points clear with just 2 games remaining.  We therefore got two boys to discuss with Harry their thoughts on the game and where we are as club.  So listen to Eddie Pearson and Andrew Smith wax lyrical about the game, the manager and the club.

Enjoy…

Fun Bhoys Three

We have the final Glasgow Derby of season 2023/24 coming up this weekend and so we have organised some experienced heads to discuss the prospects with @Paul1888 joining Andrew & Harry to discuss the game.

We roll out the metaphors and the cliches to preview the game in the context of our performance on last weekend when Brendan finally had his full first choice 16 to field.

As Andrew H says - use your testicular metaphor of choice when previewing the game and have some fun.

Enjoy…

Smith and Brady - Dundee review and Hearts preview

This week Andrew H Smith joins Harry to review the performance and result at Dens Park.  The chat takes a meandering turn as the bhoys discuss the events at Dens almost 34 years ago to the day when Celtic really blew the 1979/80 season by losing 5-1 to Dundee during the title run in.  Andrew was there and experienced the vitriol.

When they get on to the 21st Century tie they get on to discuss how brilliant James Forrest is and anyone who disagrees will go on Wolfie Smith’s list.

Finally, the bhoys get to the Hearts game.

Enjoy…

Smith & Brady - The Scottish Cup Semi Final

Following the dramtic 3-3 draw and subsequent penalty shoot-out victory, Harry Brady and Andrew H Smith review the cup semi and discuss all of the action.

There’s a review of the defensive short-comings and like every discussion by Celtic fans of a certain age, 20+ year old Hampden games are shoehorned in.

Enjoy…

What’s Going On?

There’s hasn’t been a podcast in ages and then, in usual style, two come along at once.  If you’ve not listened, then get your ears around St Anthony’s Recollections podcast out earlier in the week.  It was a short sharp pod all about Paul McStay.

For the longer form podcast (and it’s very long) we have Remy, Lawrence & me asking (and attempting to answer) the simple question - what’s going on?

The answer seems to be Dermot with everything flowing from that!

It’s nearly two hours long so you’ll maybe listen in instalments.

Enjoy…

Recollections - Paul McStay

Paul McStay was born on 22nd October 1964 in Hamilton, Lanarkshire. Grand-nephew of former Celtic team captain and manager Jimmy McStay, playing for Celtic was in the family blood.

A hotly tipped youth prospect Paul McStay was a member of Celtic Boys Club who burst onto the football scene in remarkable style when he hit two goals and was man of the match as Scotland schoolboys defeated their English counterparts at Wembley in front of a live TV audience in June 1980.

He signed for Celtic aged seventeen and made his senior Celtic debut in a 4-0 home Scottish Cup win over Queen of the South on January 21st 1982. Part of a great Celtic dynasty – his Great Uncle’s Jimmy and Willie were both Hoops greats while brothers Willie and Raymond also played for the club – Paul McStay seemed almost destined to write his name into Celtic folklore….

Enjoy

Are we at the end of the road

The Green Brigade - ostensibly a small group of fanatical “ultra” supporters below the age of 30 so who better to discuss their behaviours than a group of aging middle aged fans…?

Hullbhoy, Lawrence, Eddie & I appreciate that none of us share the likely demographic of the supporters group that we discuss, but Celtic is a broad church with fans from 1-100 and all within that spectrum are entitled to their views.  Online is principally in one place on the GBand so one element that we discuss is whether the wider fan base are broadly supportive of the GB and their actions or whether there is a “silent majority” who passionately disapprove.  Like all things the truth is probably somewhere between these two positions.

In general (and this is not a judgement by us, mere an assessment of the dynamics) we all agree that it’s probably the end of the Green Brigade as a recognised group within Celtic Park.  We discuss the damage the banner of 7th October did or didn’t do to Celtic’s reputation and yes, we do get on to talk about football, specifically the Motherwell game.

We very rarely edit the podcast and tend to put out the audio “as live” (as the recent ‘mother-in-law comments showed) however at times the debate got a little heated and there is a small section where we all talk over each other and it’s pretty much unlistenable and so if there sounds like a jump in the recording, it’s where this bit was taken out.

Enjoy….(if you can).

Born to lead the green & white

Any goal for Glasgow City, another victory for the cause, another reason to giving another cheer just for the bhoys.

All week I have heard and read ill-informed nonsense about Celtic getting a heavy defeat and responded the same way - have you seen them?  We the best manager in Scotland and one of the best in Britain.  He’ll spend all week getting the team right…and he did.

A marvellous preformance by Celtic.  Bossed the first half and controlled the game to preserve the lead in the 2nd.  Should have scored on the breakway and we only get better from here.

Top of the league, one away Glasgow Derby down and 4 points clear of the Glasgow rivals and 2 points clear at the top.

Not bad for a club with half the 1st team missing.

Enjoy…

Sense and sensibility

Podcast No1 of the new season had 2 of us, podcast No2 had 3 of us and this week, podcast No3 we’ve got 4 (four) of us on it!  Whatever next…?

Following the victory over Aberdeen, we’ve got Eddie, Saint Anthony and Paul T on to discuss the game, where the club are at, signing gossip and the forthcoming game against Killie in the cup.  This weeks’ podcast is not as long as last week’s marathon but it’s still an hour of Celtic chat by middle aged Celtic fans - just what we all need on a regular basis.

Just like buses…you wait months for a podcast and then two come along in a week and what a podcast we have for you.  I’ve no idea if it’s any good but it’s long, my goodness it’s long.  Nearly two hours of Celtic chat (although, it could be argued that it’s 2 hours of sport chat with around 45 mins of Celtic chat but I’ll let you be the judge of that).

Anyway, I am joined by Lawrence Donegan and Eddie Pearson to discuss all things Celtic, Scottish Sport, male grooming products, VPNs, youth development and everything in between.  In fact if you’re an avid listener and get all the way to end you’ll get a discount code for our Patreon site (if we were to ever have one!)

Nice to see you to see you…nice!  It’s good to be back and especially when we’re back to talk about the new seaso, with a new manager, new signings, new signing gossip and all for our 18th season of podcasting.

This week it’s the old team of Eddie and Harry who ramble and rumble over everything from fans objecting to people moving on, fans on message boards taking transfer rumoutrs too seriously, what those transfer rumours may be and our predictions for the next game.

It’s a huge bumper edition to kick off the new season so please enjoy…

Ange train keeps on rolling

Sunday saw the coronation of Celtic as back to back champions in Scotland.  It was the 11th title out of the last 12 and the 11th of 11 titles were fans have been in attendance.  All in all a remarkable period of domination by Scotland’s most succesfull living club.

The game itself was a 2-0 triumph with Hearts trying hard for 20 mins or so before normal service was resumed.  A (valid) red card helped but no doubt Celtic would have gone on to win as they have done in all bar 3 previous domestic games.

Antony Murray is on the podcast this week to review the game compare this team with the invincibles and preview the next Glasgow derby.
