Celtic Exchange: Celtic Football Club in Focus

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Daizen & Co Are All In As Celtic Invoke The Spirit of '86

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 22:27:00 -0000

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

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Is This The Spark That Ignites Our Season Finale?

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 22:02:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: This Is The Deal Under Martin O'Neill | It's Time To Buckle Up

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 22:31:00 -0000

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.

🍀 Celtic Exchange Weekly: Is It Now Advantage Celtic As We Await Post Split Fixtures?

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 20:25:00 -0000

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.

TCE Weekly: Access Denied! Fresh Fan Media Snub As Focus Now Switches To Must Win Dundee Clash

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 21:13:00 -0000

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 Big Easy Goes Green: New Orleans CSC Set To Host The Celtic Convention 2026

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 20:16:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Now Or Never For Celtic As O'Neill Faces Toughest Test Since Return

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 22:11:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Yang's The Man As Celtic Lay Down Title Gauntlet With Eight Games To Go

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 22:18:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Ibrox Uncovered – Beyond The Drama As Celtic Pull Off Unlikely Win

Mon, 09 Mar 2026 22:56:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Hatate Masterclass & A New Player Emerges From Behind The Scenes

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 22:42:00 -0000

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. Buckle up.

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. It’s a discussion that - in no particular order - takes in school football, socialist values, and sell-out tours. And Susie doesn’t stop there.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Are Celtic Now On The Brink - On and Off The Park?

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 21:12:00 -0000

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!

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Araujo In Added Time Keeps Title Fight On Track. Vamos!

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 20:20:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Can We Go From Boycott to Breakthrough As Celtic Search For A Way Forward

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 22:02:00 -0000

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.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Down To The Wire - Late Deadline Day Drama As Celtic Take It To The Final Hours

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 21:23:00 -0000

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.

Turning down an offer that would have doubled the outlay on the club’s record signing is a bold stance, but hopefully one that pays dividends as Engels and his teammates look to finish the season with silverware.

🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif on the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly as they break down all of this and more, during the closing hours of the January transfer window.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Stick Or Twist - A Week That Will Define Celtic's Season!

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 21:26:00 -0000

In exactly one week’s time we’ll know just how much ambition the Celtic board have for this season. We’ll know just how willing they’ve been to back returning hero Martin O’Neill. And we’ll know just how willing they are to show the fans that they should be taken seriously as a genuinely progressive football club. Because of recent, evidence of this has been scarce and once again the pressure is on this Celtic board to deliver. On the park we’ve seen back to back 2-2 draws for O’Neill’s side, but we remain right in the mix – both in Europe and domestically. Back the man accordingly and let’s see where we land between now and May. 🎙️ Join Tino, James & Brydo as they cover all of the above and more in the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.

CE Weekly: Martin O’Neill’s Perfect Start Can’t Mask Celtic’s Biggest Problem

Mon, 19 Jan 2026 22:02:00 -0000

Since returning once again as Interim Manager, Martin O’Neill has guided Celtic to three wins from three. However, despite those result, there is absolutely no escaping the fact that reinforcements are needed - and urgently - if success is to follow between now and the end of the season.

A brilliant manager he may be, but a magician he is not.

That reality comes into even sharper focus this week, with two pivotal fixtures of very different kinds on the horizon.

First comes the midweek trip to Italy to face Bologna in Europa League action, followed by Sunday’s visit to Tynecastle - a fixture many will regard as a must-win against the league leaders.

Should O’Neill manage to grind out two big results, it would represent a huge step in the right direction.

Let's just hope the steps he has to take beyond that are with a couple of extra options at his disposal in the first-team squad.

It took far longer than Martin O'Neill would have hoped, but Celtic eventually saw off the challenge of Auchinleck Talbot thanks to goals from Johnny Kenny and Sebastian Tounekti at Rugby Park.

The Bhoys now take their place in the Fifth Round of this season's Scottish Cup with a home tie against Dundee and that's the most important thing, but there's no doubt O'Neill would have been hoping for far more from the various fringe players who started this one.

However a win's a win and that's bnow three in three since MON returned, and we can now look ahead to two huge challenges in the shape of Bologna and Hearts in the week ahead!

Celtic's 1-0 win at the Falkirk Stadium isn't a game you'll ever want to watch back again!

But... the most important thing is that Martin O'Neill's side once again found a way to win, as the Bhoys took all 3 points to keep up the pressure at the top of the table.

It was Benji Nygren once again with the all important goal - his 12th of the season - as Celtic continue to get back on track from what's been a disjointed campaign so far.

There's absolutely no doubt though that this side does NOT have the quality and depth to win this title, and so once again it's all eyes on the club to do the right thing by supporting the manager this January transfer window...

Celtic Exchange Weekly: The O’Neill Effect - Celtic’s Season Re-Starts Here!

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 21:40:00 -0000

Just seven days ago we were preparing for Celtic Exchange Weekly with both Wilfried Nancy and Paul Tisdale firmly in place at Celtic, and a whole lot of concern for how the season was going to play out.

Fast forward to now, Martin O’Neill’s back at the helm, Celtic are back winning matches and we now face the closing months of the season with renewed optimism as a result.

O’Neill’s return isn’t a magic wand for the club’s various other problems, but his presence is a galvanising one, and if anyone can get us back on track – on and off the park – then MON may be the man for the job.

The backdrop of all of this of course is the ongoing January Transfer Window, which we’re now almost half way through. And while Julien Araujo’s loan arrival from Bournemouth is welcome there’s much to be done if we’re to give O’Nell the support needed to make a success of this campaign.

🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Asim as they cover the above and more in this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.

🎙️ TFW LIVE: New Chapter, Same Script As Martin O'Neill Returns Celtic To Winning Ways (Preview)

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 21:49:00 -0000

🍀 Enjoy this full episode - and ALL of our LIVESTREAMED pre and post match episodes - exclusively on the Celtic Exchange Patreon Channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange ==================== Martin O'Neill is back - and so are Celtic wins! The returning hero picked up exactly where he left off, guiding Celtic to a commanding 4–0 victory over Dundee United at Celtic Park. O’Neill knows the scale of the task ahead as he targets retaining the Scottish Premiership title, but this emphatic performance and scoreline served as a timely warning to both Hearts and Rangers with Celtic now very much back in the conversation following recent defeats. Four different goalscorers underlined the dominance, with Man of the Match Yang once again setting the tone by opening the scoring before the break 👀 Arne Engels, Benji Nygren and Daizen Maeda added further gloss, sending the crowd home happy, with fresh belief as to what the remainder of this season may bring. 🎙️ Join Tino & Paddy for The Final Whistle LIVE as Celtic roar back into contention and the latest Martin O’Neill era begins anew. *This episode was originally livestreamed on Celtic Exchange's Patreon Channel at 7pm on Saturday 10th of January. 🔗 https://patreon.com/celticexchange

🎙️ CTK LIVE: O'Neill Aiming To Pick Up Where He Left Off v Dundee Utd (Preview)

Fri, 09 Jan 2026 18:33:00 -0000

Celtic are back in Scottish Premiership action for the first time since Martin O'Neill's return with a vital three points at stake against Dundee Utd.

The manager has some big calls to make as he aims to pick up a squad devoid of confidence following 6 losses in 8 under Wilfried Nancy, and it looks likely he'll revert back to a more traditional 4-3-3 style formation in the process.

New Bhoy Julian Araujo could feature in a re-shuffled defence but as kick off approaches it's looking unlikely any striking enforcements - Kyogo Furuhashi or otherwise - will land in time for this one.

🎙️ Join Tino & Greg for the Countdown To Kick-Off LIVE* as they look ahead to this all important fixture as Celtic look to get back on track in the title race.

No Direction, No Answers: Celtic's Chaotic End To 2025 (Preview)

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 18:45:00 -0000

🍀 Enjoy this full episode and all our additional episodes on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange ===========================

Despite being in the role less than 4 weeks, Wilfried Nancy looks to be hanging on to his job by a thread following last night’s capitulation at the hands of Motherwell.

The loss is his 5th in just 7 games at the helm and it now feels a very long way back for the Frenchman if he’s to somehow make a success of his time in Glasgow.

Gone was the attacking intent that we’d seen glimpses of in recent games, replaced by a group of players who simply look lost under his guidance.

The defeat rounds off a miserable year all round for the club, with the 17th defeat of the calendar year epitomising just where we find ourselves at this moment in time.

🎙️ Join Tino & Asim for this one as they rake over the coals of Celtic’s final outing of 2025!

New Year, New Belief? Two Games That Could Change It All For Wilfried Nancy

Mon, 29 Dec 2025 22:07:00 -0000

Celtic head into a huge week with the chance to close out 2025 on a high - starting with a crucial win against Motherwell - before ushering in the New Year with a derby showdown against Rangers.

Pulling off wins in both would be a major boost for Wilfried Nancy, as the Frenchman looks to rebuild belief among the support and guide us back to the top of the table after a challenging start to his reign.

Off the pitch, the January transfer window looms large. It’s a golden opportunity for the club to correct mistakes from recent windows - and, just as importantly, to show genuine backing for Nancy.

But will they act decisively? And will Paul Tisdale still be in place as Head of Football Operations to oversee what could be a defining month?

These next few weeks promise to be pivotal for Celtic, on and off the park.

🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, James, Mif & Paddy as they tackle all of this and more in the final Celtic Exchange Weekly of 2025.

No Fear And Loathing In West Lothian | Celtic Looking To Build Some Festive Form (Preview)

Fri, 26 Dec 2025 21:00:00 -0000

🍀 Enjoy this full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange =========================== Celtic make the short jaunt down the M8 to take on Livingston on Saturday and will be looking to build some momentum with another win ahead of further crucial festive fixtures. Wilfried Nancy has some big calls to make, most notably in attack, and will have to decide whether or not to stick with misfiring Johnny Kenny or to make a change at No.9. The Bhoys clocked up numerous chances against Aberdeen last weekend, and if we can create more of the same against Davie Martindale's struggling side then there's every chance we can return home with another vital 3 points. 🎙️ Join Tino & Brydo for this one as Celtic aim to maintain the pressure on Hearts at the top of the table in Matchday 18 of the Scottish Premiership season.

The Man Taking Celtic YouTube By Storm - “Another One From Paul!"

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 19:01:00 -0000

In this special episode, Tino’s joined by Paul Murphy - the man who’s taken Celtic’s corner of YouTube by storm with a run of original, offbeat videos covering all things green and white. A Belfast native, Paul made his first pilgrimage across the water to see Celtic at just three years old in the late ’90s - and he’s never looked back. From catching games in the spare room on a dodgy satellite feed to earning gold stars in class for writing X-rated match reports, Paul’s Celtic story has it all. Like so many others, he's grown up with the club as the constant thread running through his life - and it’s that blend of nostalgia, obsession and humour that’s helped his content resonate far beyond Glasgow and Belfast. In this wide ranging and slightly irreverent dive into the highs (mostly) and heartbreaks of a life supporting Celtic, we chat Martin O’Neill - "the man who changed everything" - being let down by Lubo, why El Hadj Diouf “pays the bills” in the Murphy household - and a whole lot more. It’s a great conversation with a creator currently at the top of his game. If you’ve not checked him out already, make sure you find Paul on YouTube and Twitter (links below).

Celtic Exchange Weekly: A Wilf & Sheeps’ Loathing | Reasons For Optimism As Nancy Registers First Win

Tue, 23 Dec 2025 21:11:00 -0000

Wilfried Nancy registered his first win as Celtic manager at the weekend, and with 31 efforts on goal showed more signs of the attacking football we may be set to witness under his stewardship.

It’s been a rocky start for the Frenchman, and some defensive frailties have undoubtedly been exposed, but going forward there’s plenty to be excited about and if he can blend the two together then we could be on to a winner.

The nature of his opening few weeks however means we’re nudging forward on a game-to-game basis with many still unsure of his suitability for the role and the only thing he can do to convince the doubters is win games of football, with Livi next in the firing line this weekend.

Elsewhere we also look at the increasing influence Paul Tisdale has at the club and if – based on past performance – he’s the right guy to take us into one of our most important transfer windows in years!

Wilfried Desperately Needs A Win As Bhoys Travel To Tannadice (Preview)

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 16:49:00 -0000

🍀 Enjoy this full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange ===========================The fallout from the League Cup Final defeat to St Mirren is still lingering, but Wilfried Nancy and his Celtic side have no time to dwell as the festive fixture pile-up rolls on. Tonight brings a trip to Tannadice to face a Dundee United side grappling with their own problems - and Nancy will be desperate to take advantage on Tayside. He’ll have to do it without Sebastian Tounekti and Michel-Ange Balikwisha, both away on AFCON duty, as well as the injured Kelechi Iheanacho. Predicting the starting XI feels almost impossible right now, but whatever the selection, the hope is the Bhoys can deliver the victory that finally kick-starts Nancy’s reign. 🎙️ Join Tino and Ryan for this one as they look ahead to a pivotal night at Tannadice for Celtic.

A Wild Week For Wilfried As Celtic’s Season Of Chaos Continues

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 22:08:00 -0000

Wilfried Nancy’s Celtic reign couldn’t have got off to a worse start with three defeats from three in little more than a week in the job.

Bizarre as it may sound, it already feels like a long road back for the Frenchman, with some making an early call in writing off his chances of ever succeeding as Celtic manager.

But you don’t need to be watching too closely to see that Celtic’s problems run far deeper than the man in the dugout. We take a deeper dive into what’s really going wrong - and ask what, if anything, can be done to get the club back on track.

There’s little time to catch breath though, as the fixtures coming. Nancy’s next major test now awaits at Tannadice on Wednesday night.

League Cup Final Special: Wilfried Nancy's First Shot At Celtic Glory (Preview)

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 06:59:00 -0000

Just over a week into the job and already under pressure from various angles, Wilfried Nancy remarkably has the chance to win the first silverware of the season this weekend.

Brendan Rodgers began our League Cup journey, Martin O’Neill guided us through the semi-final win over Rangers, and now Nancy can finish the job as he makes his first trip to Hampden on Sunday to face St Mirren.

The Paisley side, as we know, are well drilled under Stevie Robinson and will be determined to spoil the party. Celtic, meanwhile, will be pushing to lift the trophy for what would be the 23rd time in our history.

🍀 Enjoy this full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange ===========================

"Play Wi' The Heid" - Leaving a Lasting Legacy For Lisbon Lion Tommy Gemmell

Fri, 12 Dec 2025 19:30:00 -0000

As scorer of one of the two most important goals in Celtic's history, Tommy Gemmell has firmly secured his place in the Celtic history books.
Voted by fans in Celtic's greatest ever XI, the marauding full back will forever be remembered as a Lisbon Lion but now a group from his hometown of Craigneuk want to ensure his legacy touches ever more lives with a special project in his name.
The Tommy Gemmell Community Project aims to place a statue of the great man in the town but - as stated by the group themselves - the project is "more than a statue".
In the words of Tommy's friend Martin McCrum, founder of the project its an endeavour which will "signify hope, inspiration and motivation" in Tommy's community and beyond.
A lasting legacy to one of Celtic's greatest sons. We were delighted to be joined at Celtic Exchange by Martin and by Tommy's wife Mary as they shared the passion that's been driving this incredible project to new heights.

Roma Ruthless On The Night As Celtic Fall To Bruising Europa League Loss (Preview)

🍀 Enjoy this full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange ===========================

It was a bruising night for Celtic as Gian Piero Gasperini’s Roma left Glasgow with a 3-0 win on Europa League Matchday 6.

Wilfried Nancy named an unchanged XI as he chased the kind of result that could ignite his Celtic tenure, but that wait goes on. Up against the Serie A high-flyers, the Bhoys couldn’t find the spark they needed.

After a particularly difficult first half, a triple substitution at the break brought some improvement, but it’s clear there’s still plenty of work ahead if Nancy is to steer his side toward winning form.

The defeat leaves our Europa League hopes hanging in the balance, with focus now shifting quickly to Sunday’s League Cup Final against St Mirren.

Nancy's Celtic Won't Be Built In A Day - But A Result v Roma Would Be Massive For New Man (Preview)

Wed, 10 Dec 2025 20:19:00 -0000

🍀 Enjoy this full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange =========================== At time of writing Wilfried Nancy has been in Glasgow for less than a week, but it must feel like a lifetime for the Frenchman given the noise since Sunday's loss to Hearts. Thankfully the man himself seems well able to drown out the noise and accepted in his pre match press conference that it's all part of the job. Another part of the job of course is getting results and he'll be hoping he can claim just that against Roma as they come calling at Celtic Park in Europa League action. It's only Game Two for Nancy, but already it feels like a biggie. 🎙️ Join Tino & Greg as the look ahead to Europa League Matchday 6 in the latest Countdown To Kick Off.

A Test Of Wilf-Power: How Will New Man Respond To Opening Day Hysteria?

Mon, 08 Dec 2025 22:15:00 -0000

Celtic are a club unlike any other, and while Wilfried Nancy will have done his homework before landing in Glasgow, nothing could have prepared him for the frankly absurd backlash that followed his opening-day defeat to Hearts.

Fair questions can be asked about his immediate shift to a 3-4-3, but the mockery of his tactics boards and his post-match interview has been nothing short of ridiculous.

If nothing else, the past few days will have given him a crash course on life at Celtic.

Next up for the new man is a pivotal double-header against Roma in the Europa League, before a League Cup Final showdown with St Mirren on Sunday.

Two tough tests, unquestionably - but also the ideal stage for Nancy to silence a few critics.

Nancy’s Formation Falls Short On First Test | But He Must Be Given Time To Get It Right (Preview)

Mon, 08 Dec 2025 12:40:00 -0000

It was never going to be straightforward for Wilfried Nancy as he stepped into the shoes of a Celtic legend like Martin O’Neill - and Sunday’s debut highlighted that fact.

A 2–1 defeat to Hearts wasn’t in the script for the Frenchman, and the early adoption of his preferred 3-4-3 setup has already raised eyebrows among the Celtic support.

Nancy appears committed to the system, given the success it’s brought him elsewhere, but the hope now is that it begins to click with this squad sooner rather than later.

With huge fixtures against Roma and St Mirren in the League Cup Final coming up this week, he’ll know - fairly or not - that time is not on his side. Finding that winning formula quickly is essential, and he’ll be desperate to put things right as quickly as possible.

🎙️ Join Tino & Conor as they break down an intriguing afternoon at Celtic Park, as Wilfried Nancy’s Celtic fall short in the top-of-the-table clash with Hearts.

The More Things Change At Celtic, The More They Stay The Same | With Des McLean & Jim Orr

Sat, 06 Dec 2025 18:41:00 -0000

Fans at loggerheads with the club. Tension thick in the air. Anxiety over what the future holds. It could easily describe events of the last few months - but this time we’re talking about Celtic in the early 90s, when the club lurched from one crisis to the next in what was, frankly, an existential struggle for survival at Celtic Park. Thankfully, Fergus McCann and others stepped up during those turbulent years, and in 'And If You Know The History? ' (written by Jim Orr and starring Des McLean) that story is retold with a quirky, compelling twist. Jim and Des joined us in the studio this week to talk about the show’s return and to draw parallels between those dark days and the current turmoil unfolding at Celtic. It made for an entertaining session - and a glimpse of what you can expect if you’re lucky enough to get tickets for next year’s run. 🎟️ 'And If You Know The History?' runs from 27th - 29th August 2026 at the Pavillion Theatre and tickets can be purchased now at the link below. 🔗 https://trafalgartickets.com/pavilion-theatre-glasgow/en-GB/event/play/and-if-you-know-the-history-tickets

It's O'Neill's Night As Celtic Draw Level At Top Of The Table {PREVIEW}

Thu, 04 Dec 2025 14:52:00 -0000

🅟 Enjoy the full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange =========================== It's been a whirlwind five weeks for Martin O'Neill on his return to Celtic but the job he's done in that tine has been nothing short of remarkable. Five straight Scottish Premiership wins, a League Cup Semi victory over Rangers and a win on the road in the Europa League - and some thought he could have been in danger of tarnishing his legacy by returning...! O'Neill deserves all the praise coming his way for what he's achieved - as do Shaun Maloney, Mark Fotherinbgham & Stephen McManus - but for him the most pleasing aspect will be where he now leaves us. Last night's win over Dundee draws us level on points with Hearts at the top of the table, and with the Edinburgh side making their way to Celtic Park on Sunday its all to play for in Wilfried Nancy's first game. If he makes a fraction of the impact on Celtic as O'Neill has then we can look forward to wait awaits us under the frenchman. 🎙️ Join Tino and Joe for their review of an emotional night for Martin O'Neill as he took centre stage one last time.

O'Neill Chasing A Perfect Seven On Celtic Park Send Off (Preview)

Tue, 02 Dec 2025 20:56:00 -0000

🅟 Enjoy the full episode right now on our Patreon channel at https://patreon.com/celticexchange =========================== Martin O'Neill has the chance to make it a flawless seven domestic wins from seven when Celtic host Dundee on Wednesday night in what looks set to be his final act as Interim Manager (correct at time of publication). And there’s no more fitting stage for his farewell than Celtic Park. The perfect run has already earned O’Neill the November Manager of the Month award, and a victory over Stephen Pressley’s side would provide the fairytale ending to his incredible return. Sentiment aside, there’s an important job to be done by his side, and a win would heap fresh pressure on league leaders Hearts - who themselves face Kilmarnock - with the Bhoys now just two points off the summit. It promises to be an emotional night in store as we look for the perfect conclusion to a near perfect five weeks in the job for O'Neill. 🎙️ Join Tino & Greg for this one as they preview Celtic’s midweek clash with Dundee at Celtic Park.

The End Of An Interim Era: O’Neill’s Impact & What Happens Next at Celtic (Extended Episode)

Mon, 01 Dec 2025 23:18:00 -0000

What Martin O’Neill has delivered as Interim Manager has been nothing short of remarkable. So much so, in fact, that many fans - understandably - would happily press pause on the imminent passing of the Celtic baton to Wilfried Nancy.

But as football always reminds us, even the best reigns (interim or otherwise) must come to an end. And for O’Neill, that looks to be approaching fast.

When he does step aside, he’ll do so with the gratitude of the entire support, for answering the call when Celtic needed him most, and for breathing life back into a side that had clearly lost its way.

The spotlight now turns to Nancy. His task will be to build on O’Neill’s work and sustain the momentum that’s been reignited in recent weeks. Supporters will be hoping for clarity and confirmation on the Frenchman's arrival in the days ahead.

Elsewhere, the Celtic Fans Collective have confirmed a march will take place ahead of Sunday’s clash with Hearts. It will set off from Celtic’s birthplace of St Mary’s in the Calton at 1.15pm, before making its way to Celtic Park ahead of kick-off - with the social media announcement encouraging all fans to attend:

“All Celtic fans are invited to join us as we embark on a unifying and defiant celebration of everything good about Celtic Football Club.”

=================================

Not so long ago, the idea of this Celtic side taking three away wins on the bounce at St Mirren, Feyenoord and Hibs would have sounded far-fetched - until the Martin O’Neill factor kicked in.

Since returning as Interim Manager, O’Neill has sparked this squad back to life, restoring belief and bite, with the likes of Arne Engels, Yang and Reo Hatate all thriving under his guidance.

And the great man may not be gone just yet, as the club finalise Wilfried Nancy's imminent arrival as our new Head Coach.

Crucially, O’Neill has hauled Celtic to within two points of leaders Hearts - and a win over Dundee at Celtic Park on Wednesday night will send us back to the top of the Scottish Premiership table.

One Last Time: Martin O’Neill’s Celtic Farewell at Easter Road (Episode Preview)

Sat, 29 Nov 2025 18:27:00 -0000

Celtic head to Easter Road on Sunday knowing a win would cut the gap at the top to just two points on leaders Hearts - a game that will also mark the final appearance of club legend Martin O’Neill in the dugout.

O’Neill has made a remarkable impact since stepping in as interim boss almost five weeks ago - reigniting this Celtic side by dragging them firmly back towards the top and restoring confidence in Europe with Thursday's big win against Feyenoord - and he’ll be determined to sign off in style after a spell that has breathed fresh belief into players and supporters alike.

Yet in typical style in his pre-match press conference, O’Neill brushed aside any talk of legacy. His sole focus is on the three points that could take Celtic one step closer to the Premiership summit.

Whatever the outcome in Leith, his influence has been unmistakable - lifting spirits, restoring momentum, and reminding everyone what he's all about.

Martin O'Neill leaves with the thanks of everyone connected with Celtic for answering the call when it mattered most.

Ahead of Celtic’s trip to Rotterdam, everyone in green and white was willing Martin O’Neill to conjure one last European night to remember before stepping aside as interim boss. Hope or expectation? Who cares - when the moment arrived, so did the man. And what a continental farewell it was. A 3-1 win away from home - after falling behind - is the kind of result that deserves to be savoured. For a side not exactly renowned for away victories in Europe, this one feels extra sweet. Huge credit to the travelling support, as ever, with our own Paddy proudly among them. Every mile, every delay, every bleary-eyed journey home will be worth it after a performance like that. The victory lifts Celtic back up the Europa League table, and with three games still to play, the baton now passes to Wilfried Nancy to carry this campaign forward. 🎙️ Join Tino and James as they break down a massive night on the road, with Celtic delivering on Matchday 5 of this season’s Europa League.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: After The AGM - Where Do Celtic Go From Here?

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 21:55:00 -0000

Following Friday’s explosive AGM (or part AGM!) relations between the club and fans seem to have reached a new low, begging the ultimate question – what is the way forward?

Is there a way forward?

For that to happen it feels like something will have to give at the club’s side, but with that seemingly unlikely at this moment in time, where does that leave us?

As has been the theme of the season so far we’re left with far more questions than answers.

And what of Wilfried Nancy? A man who looks set to stroll right into the middle of a shit storm, following reports of his imminent arrival.

All in all it’s a helluva situation, with a resolve currently looking further away than ever.

🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy, James and Mif for the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly where they provide absolutely none of the answers to the above questions!

It was a win that even the most optimistic of fans likely didn't see coming however as the Bhoys huffed and puffed in an uninspiring display against a well drilled St Mirren - and its a result that could quite easily have gone the other way. That said, McGregor knows what it takes to get a game like that over the line and lead by example with a sensational strike at the death to ensure Martin O'Neill's domestic record since his return now reads four wins from four. 🎙️ Join Tino & Brydo for the Final Whistle Show as Celtic dug deep to take all three points from this one.

The game acts as a dress rehearsal of sorts with both sides facing off in the League Cup Final in just a few weeks time but any thoughts of that one must be put to one side for now, with Celtic chasing down another three vital league points. With Hearts not playing until Sunday (away to Aberdeen) the game presents a big opportunity for Martin O'Neill's men to cut the gap at the top to just four points and to pile the pressure on the Edinburgh side who've now dropped points in two of their last three games. O'Neill and Shaun Maloney by contrast have won all three domestic games since their return to Celtic Park as the interim management team. 🎙️ Join Tino & Greg for this one as they look ahead to some Saturday night football!

Where There’s A Wilf There’s A Way! Are Celtic Entering A New Data Driven Era?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 21:43:00 -0000

Momentum is building around Wilfried Nancy’s expected unveiling, with many now seeing it as only a matter of time before the Frenchman is confirmed as Celtic’s next manager.

At 48, Nancy is known for a football philosophy rooted in modern infrastructure and data-driven decision-making - an approach he’d look to embed at Celtic if he accepts what would be his first role outside MLS.

His potential appointment appears to bear the imprint of Paul Tisdale, with Celtic’s Head of Football Operations understood to have championed the move to bring the highly rated Columbus Crew coach to Glasgow.

While some remain sceptical, plenty of supporters are energised by the prospect of the club embracing a fully modern model - and all just in time for the AGM. 😀

However we’ve got here, it could mark the start of an exciting new era at Celtic Park and a fresh direction for the football department.

🎙️ Join Tino, James and Paddy as we dig into all of this and more on the latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Is Kjetil Knutson The Man That Celtic Kneed? | With David Weatherston

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 17:59:00 -0000

He took Bodo Glimt to their first ever league title in 2020, and has lifted three further titles since.

Last season he steered them to the semi-finals of the Europa League before losing out to eventual winners Spurs. It’s the furthest any Norwegian side has ever progressed in European competition.

And this season he negotiated qualifying to take his side to the UEFA Champions League for the first time ever where they’ll take on the likes of Juventus, Man City, Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid in the weeks ahead.

‘He’ of course, is Kjetil Knutson, and his stock has never been higher – but will he be the man to replace Brendan Rodgers as permanent Celtic manager?

Ex St Johnstone, Falkirk and Queen of the South forward David Weatherston joins us to run the rule over a figure that has been one of the front runners for the role.

David finished his career in Norway and now lives there and so he’s spent more time than most following the career path of a man who it seems can do no wrong in that part of the world.

We discuss Knutson’s journey to date, his style of play, and what he may bring to Celtic IF offered the job.

Is Wilfried Nancy The Right Fit For Celtic | With John O’Rourke

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 14:59:00 -0000

All signs are now pointing firmly towards Wilfried Nancy as next Celtic manager with the 48 year old deemed the odds-on favourite to take on the role.

Currently Head Coach of Columbus Crew in the MLS, the emergence of his name has led to a scramble among fans to get as much info as possible on the man who may replace Brendan Rodgers in the hot seat.

In shades of Ange Postecoglou’s appointment, and Ronny Deila’s before that, Nancy isn’t widely known on these shores and so we spoke to someone in the know to get the lowdown on the highly rated Frenchman.

Dublin-born John O’Rourke has been working in US Soccer for over 25 years and holds an A License from the United States Soccer Federation.

Just two weeks ago John was in attendance as Nancy put on a training session for academy players at Philadelphia Union before later making a presentation and so is well placed to give his thoughts on his suitability.

In this wide ranging discussion we look at Nancy’s coaching philosophy, his own career ambitions, and if he’s potentially the right man to lead Celtic forward.

Stick Or Twist? Celtic Have A Call To Make, And The Clock Is Ticking

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 22:36:00 -0000

Celtic’s interim management duo of Martin O’Neill and Shaun Maloney made it three domestic wins on the spin at the weekend - racking up 11 goals in the process - but will wee see them back in the dugout after the international break?

With no updates from the club on the search for Brendan Rodgers’ successor, fans are growing increasingly anxious about who will take the reins as we head into a crucial part of the campaign.

While O’Neill’s popularity remains sky-high, most accept it’s not a long-term solution, but will the club make a move over the next fortnight?

Talk around Wilfried Nancy (currently head coach of Columbus Crew in MLS) has intensified, while Kjetil Knutson, Kieran McKenna, and others remain firmly in the frame.

With the temperature at boiling point, the club simply has to get this one right.

Over to you, Celtic!

KT Back Among The Goals As Celtic Close The Gap At Top Of The Table (Preview)

Sun, 09 Nov 2025 21:45:00 -0000

An early goal by Johnny Kenny put the Bhoys one up at the break before Tierney doubled the lead, with late goals from Daizen Maeda and Arne Engels putting some gloss on the scoreline against a struggling Kilmarnock side.

With Hearts only able to draw with Dundee United earlier in the day the result means we’re now just seven points adrift at the top of the table with a game in hand, and Derek McInnes’ side will now be feeling the pressure that little bit more.

We now head in to the final international break of the calendar year, and it may well be that there’s a new man at the helm when we return - but either way it was another good day for interim manager Martin O’Neill who’s now registered three straight domestic wins since his surprise return to the club.

The hugely popular Irishman has brought some belief back - among players and fans alike - in the short time since his return, but with the club making moves to appoint a permanent successor to Brendan Rodgers, will Sunday's clash with Kilmarnock be a final farewell for O'Neill. If so then he'll be determined to go out on a high as the Bhoys look to claw back what's currently a 9 point lead for Hearts at the top of the table. The immediate challenge is to lift the group following the disappointing defeat i Denmark, but if history tells us anything it's that there's no better man that O'Neill to do so. 🎙️ Join Tino & Greg for this one as they look ahead to Celtic's clash with Kilmarnock at Celtic Park.

The hosts had won three Europa League games on the bounce going into this one but with O'Neill at the helm we headed into Matchday 4 with renewed confidence following his dramatic return last week. That confidence was obliterated however in an 8 minute first half spell which saw us go in three down at the break and from there on in we had a mountain to climb. Reo Hatate's penalty added some credibility to the scoreline but the night was made notably worse by what looks to be a worrying injury for young Callum Osmand. A sour note to top off what was already a miserable night on the road. 🎙️ Join Tino & James for this one as they rake over the coals of Celtic's latest Euro nightmare!

Fresh from his exploits against Rangers, Callum Osmand replaces the injured Cameron Carter-Vickers in the squad and he and fellow in-form strike partner Johnny Kenny will relish the chance to prove what they can do on the European stage.

• How O’Neill can lift the current Celtic squad

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Donny No Dae That - Osmand Shines Bright In A Wild Week For Celtic

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 22:30:00 -0000

If you were a short story writer, you’d struggle to dream up anything more fantastical than the real-life drama that’s unfolded at Celtic Park over the past seven days.

Shock resignations, dramatic statements, a returning hero - and that was just Monday!

Since then, we’ve seen passionate fan protests, a swashbuckling win over Falkirk, the long-awaited release of the fan survey, and even a first look at the new stadium banners.

And if all that wasn’t enough, Martin O’Neill returned to the dugout for his first Glasgow Derby in over 20 years - and, in classic O’Neill fashion, led the Bhoys to victory on a high-energy afternoon at Hampden Park.

Callum Osmand rightly stole the headlines on the big occasion, but he wasn’t alone. A number of his teammates deserve huge credit for showing the kind of fighting spirit that’s been missing for much of the season as they played they battled their way into next month's final.

At this rate, who knows what the next few weeks and months will bring? For now, though, let’s enjoy the sight of a proper Celtic team returning on the park - and look ahead to another massive couple of fixtures in the days to come.

🎙️ Join Tino, James and Asim as they break down all of this and more on the latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Now, after being handed his debut by Martin O’Neill in midweek, the 19-year-old has fired Celtic into the League Cup Final - scoring a goal he’s since described as “the happiest moment of his life.” It was a brilliant day at Hampden under O’Neill’s leadership, and the returning hero deserves huge credit once again for getting the best out of Osmand, Auston Trusty, Callum McGregor, and others when their team needed them most. Like Osmand, it’s been a whirlwind week for O’Neill too - but right now, there’s no one else we’d rather see steering the Celtic ship. It may only be two wins in four days, but it feels like so much more, as Celtic finally look to get their season back on track. 🎙️ Join Tino and Conor for this one as they reflect on a big day for Martin O’Neill’s Celtic at the National Stadium.

The returning hero has faced Rangers no fewer than 27 times as Celtic manager, and remarkably, it’s now over 25 years since his first encounter - the unforgettable 6–2 game back in August 2000. We’d all gladly take a repeat of that scoreline as the Bhoys look to retain the League Cup they lifted against the same opponents just under a year ago. Both sides, meanwhile, will be desperate to serve up something far more exciting than uninspiring stalemate that marked the first derby of the season. O’Neill and his assistant Shaun Maloney have some big decisions to make regarding their starting XI, but they’ll take confidence from Wednesday night’s performance against Falkirk - arguably Celtic’s best display of the campaign so far. 🎙️ Join Tino, James and Greg as they cover all the key talking points ahead of Sunday’s all-important semi-final at Hampden.

Sky Sports (30.10.25) | O'Neill's Return, Improved Perfomance v Falkirk + Next Manager Speculation

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 07:00:00 -0000

After a whirlwind couple of days, Martin O’Neill and Shaun Maloney finally got down to work as Celtic faced Falkirk at Celtic Park on Wednesday night. Following an uncertain start to the season under Brendan Rodgers, the interim duo delivered a refreshing performance — an encouraging glimpse of what might be to come in the weeks ahead. Both men have ruled themselves out of taking the job on a permanent basis, meaning speculation over Celtic’s next manager continues to swirl.

So too do the protests from fans, with a large group gathering outside the main entrance before kick-off to keep up the pressure on the club’s hierarchy. 🎙️ Tino joined presenter Tom White and guest Jamie O’Hara on Sky Sports to discuss all the latest developments.

Shareholders, Structure & the AGM: David Low Explains Celtic’s Inner Workings (Preview)

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 18:30:00 -0000

As a former advisor to Fergus McCann, David Low has been at the very heart of it when it comes to boardroom struggle at Celtic Park.

More than 30 years on from those turbulent days, the club now faces a very different kind of challenge, but one that shows no signs of being resolved any time soon.

Brendan Rodgers’ shock resignation this week, followed by Dermot Desmond’s explosive statement, has opened a dramatic new chapter in Celtic’s story - the consequences of which are likely to be felt for some time.

In this episode, David shares his insights on those developments and on the ever-unpredictable world behind the scenes at Celtic Park.

Connected to all of this is a new venture that David and others have recently launched. He explains the motivation behind it, and how it could shape the future of life at Celtic in the years ahead.

Finally, with this year’s AGM confirmed for 21st November - just three weeks away - we close by looking at what might unfold on what’s set to be a lively morning in Parkhead.

Before kick-off, protests continued outside the main doors at Celtic Park as fans made clear their ongoping copncerns about how the club is currently being run, but once the whistle blew, all focus turned to the football - and to the returning O’Neill. That renewed sense of purpose was evident on the pitch too, with Celtic playing faster, sharper, and more directly than we’ve seen in some time. The Bhoys went about their business with a confidence and efficiency that set the tone for what could be an exciting spell under the interim management team. With league leaders Hearts dropping points, the gap at the top now stands at six - a welcome boost on a good night for the champions. It all leaves O’Neill and his backroom team with a few big calls to make ahead of Sunday’s trip to Hampden… but we’ll get to that in due course. 🎙️ Join Tino & Asim as they recap an eventful night under the lights at Celtic Park.

The Statement That Shook Celtic | Inside 24 Hours of Chaos

Tue, 28 Oct 2025 19:26:00 -0000

Brendan Rodgers has finally left the building. Martin O’Neill has sensationally returned - and in between it all lies an explosive statement from dominant Celtic shareholder Dermot Desmond that truly has to be read to be believed.

It’s been a 24-hour period that has rocked Scottish football to its core, and more specifically, poured even more fuel on the already raging fire around Celtic Park.

O’Neill and Shaun Maloney will take charge for the foreseeable future, but the nature of Rodgers’ “resignation” - and the statements that followed - have raised far more questions than answers about the club’s day-to-day operations.

We explore:

🏆 The End of an 11-Trophy Era at Celtic

The Brendan Rodgers Rollercoaster: Can Celtic Regain Their Rhythm?

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 23:37:00 -0000

Celtic’s inconsistency continues to frustrate with Sunday’s setback at Tynecastle landing just days after the encouraging comeback win v Sturm Graz.

With pressure continuing to mount on Brendan Rodgers, more questions are now being asked of the Irishman, with the main one being – is he the man to claw back an 8 point lead at the top of the table? Has he lost the dressing room?

Is he still able to motivate this group of players? And does he have it in him to add to his haul of 11 trophies as Celtic manager?

And make no mistake its a win they thoroughly deserved for the effort and character shown throughout the game. The early injuries to Kelechi Iheanacho and Alistair Johnston piled extra pressure on Brendan Rodgers’ side, who haven't had their troubles to seek in recent weeks. But to their credit, they responded superbly to those setbacks and eventually took full control against the Austrian champions. Special praise goes to goalscorers Liam Scales and Benji Nygren, while Arne Engels offered a timely reminder of just how influential he can be at the heart of Celtic’s midfield. With another huge test awaiting at Tynecastle on Sunday, it’s vital that the team now builds on this performance and finally finds the consistency that’s been missing for much of the season. 🎙️ Join Tino & Brydo for their post-match thoughts after a stressful, but ultimately rewarding night at Celtic Park.

However, coming off the back of a bruising 2-0 defeat at Dundee, there are no guarantees of a strong response from Brendan Rodgers’ unpredictable side at this time. Daizen Maeda remains sidelined, but Alistair Johnston could return to the squad — and having someone of his character back in the dressing room would be a huge lift for both his teammates and the manager. Rodgers is under growing pressure following recent results and will be desperate for a win that could reignite Celtic’s European campaign. 🎙️ Join Tino and Paddy as they look ahead to Thursday’s clash with the Austrians.

🎙️ A Club Adrift: Rodgers Under The Spotlight, But Celtic’s Problems Run Deeper Than the Dugout

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 21:19:00 -0000

Brendan Rodgers is under fire, but he’s far from the only issue at Celtic right now.

Poor form, flat performances, and deeper cracks behind the scenes have fans asking the same questions: where’s the leadership, and where is this team heading this season?

We break down what’s really gone wrong under the manager - this season and otherwise - and whether he and his side can re-discover the form that made him such a popular figure first time around.

We also cover:

📉 Worrying Stats: A Concerning Trend That Goes Way Back To The Start Of 2025.

⏩ The Week Ahead: Do This Squad Have It In Them To Turn It Around This Week?

It's a massive 7 days ahead, and possibly for the first real time in his tenure (over two spells as manager!) Brendan Rodgers' finds himself on particularly shaky ground.

And the most worrying part? It wasn’t even all that surprising. Yes, it’s our first league loss of the season, but the warning signs have been there for a while. A quick look at our 2025 results shows just how poorly the team has been performing this calendar year. So where do we go from here under Brendan Rodgers? Can this squad dig deep and respond in Thursday’s Europa League clash with Sturm Graz? Or in next weekend’s crucial trip to Tynecastle to face league leaders Hearts? Or even in next month’s cup semi-final against Rangers? On today’s evidence, that feels like wishful thinking. 🎙️ Round off your weekend (for better or worse) by joining Tino and James as they rake over the ashes of what was a miserable afternoon for Celtic at Dens Park.

How The Celtic Board Must Change To Match Fan Ambition - Part 2 | ACSOM & Celtic Exchange

Sat, 18 Oct 2025 17:38:00 -0000

Continuing our collaboration with Paul John Dykes of A Celtic State of Mind, we take a closer look at what Celtic Park could become - if only there was the vision to make it happen.

The stadium’s footprint holds enormous potential. Yet, as with many aspects of Celtic at the moment, there appears to be a greater focus on simply making do with what we have, rather than exploring the exciting possibilities that could come from real investment and development in the ground and surrounding areas.

This lack of forward thinking is one of several factors contributing to the growing disconnect between the club and its supporters.

We also explore the ongoing communication issues that continue to frustrate fans—an area where many again feel the club is falling short.

Are we witnessing a serious lack of vision and ambition at Celtic right now? Where is our modern-day Fergus McCann - the kind of visionary who can lead us into the next 5, 10, or 15 years and beyond?

This is Part 2 of our two-part collaboration between Celtic Exchange and A Celtic State of Mind.

No Drama At Dens? Celtic Still Searching For Calm, On And Off The Park (Preview)

Fri, 17 Oct 2025 18:00:00 -0000

Whether it’s the drama of a late winner against Motherwell, a tense meeting between the club and the fans, or something else entirely - it’s never quiet at Celtic at this moment in time.

That said, the last thing we’re hoping for this weekend is the clichéd “Drama at Dens!” and hopefully Celtic can enjoy a stress-free afternoon on Tayside before returning to Glasgow with all three points.

Off the pitch, the unrest continues, with another meeting of the Celtic Fans Collective taking place on Thursday night, and to help us unpack everything that’s been going on, we’re joined by a member of the group’s steering committee - and someone well known to many listeners.

Scott McCorry of the Homebhoys Podcast makes his first appearance of the season on Celtic Exchange, and it was great to have him back on the show.

🎙️ Tune in as Tino and Scott discuss all the latest goings-on at Celtic, both on and off the park.

Thu, 16 Oct 2025 17:15:00 -0000

It might feel like they’ve been around for much longer, but the Celtic Fans Collective have only been part of the modern-day Celtic story for a matter of weeks - and what a whirlwind few weeks it’s been.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: 21 Days That Could Shape Celtic's Season - Crunch Time On And Off The Park

Mon, 13 Oct 2025 21:23:00 -0000

Starting this Sunday against Dundee, Celtic embark on a potentially season-defining run of fixtures - even games in just 21 days, spanning three different competitions. It’s a spell that will test the resolve of Brendan Rodgers’ side, with crucial clashes in the Scottish Premiership, League Cup, and Europa League set to reveal plenty about the team’s character and depth, even at this early stage of the campaign. Off the park, it’s also a significant period, with further fan group meetings planned as efforts continue to address some of the recent unrest around the club.

Nostalgia's Not What It Used To Be - The Philosophy Of The 'Celtic Da' | Feat. Phil Differ

Thu, 09 Oct 2025 11:26:00 -0000

We’re joined on Celtic Exchange this week by legendary Scottish writer and comedian Phil Differ - the man behind Only an Excuse - as he tells us of his latest creation, “Celtic Da's” - a hilarious and heartfelt new play about what it really means to follow Celtic as you get that bit older.

Also in attendance were stars of the show Raymond Mearns and Bruce Morton - two Scottish comedy favourites - as the three tell us of how the play came to be, of what a "Celtic Da" actually is, and how you get to become one!

Key questions include:

🍀 Is a Celtic Da different from a Glesga Da, and a Comedy Da?

🤔 Is The Younger Generation Of Football Fan Entitled?

🤩 Are Characters In The Game No Longer A Thing?

and much more as we look ahead to a play that Phil describes as "Shamelessly Nostalgic!"

This one's a must-listen for anyone who finds themselves slipping into Celtic Da territory, OR for those who have already been there a while!

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Meet, Greet & Repeat? Will the Celtic Park Showdown Bring Meaningful Change?

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 21:20:00 -0000

After weeks of unrest, various fan groups were finally invited to meet face to face with the club at Celtic Park tonight (Monday, 6 October), to allow all parties to have a long-awaited discussion aimed at finding a way forward following the recent standoff. While the full outcomes of the meeting may take some time to emerge, one thing is clear: the relationship between the club and its supporters must improve - because the status quo quite simply isn't working. On the pitch, a morale-boosting win over Motherwell offered some much-needed positivity and could spark new life into the campaign for several players, including Michel-Ange Balikwisha, Arne Engels, and Daizen Maeda. The international break now gives Brendan Rodgers and his squad the chance to regroup and refocus before setting their sights on reeling in league leaders Hearts. Meanwhile, across the city, Rangers are once again spinning on the managerial merry-go-round, and just a little earlier in the season this time than many expected. 🎙️ Join Tino, James & Paddy as they cover all of this and more in the latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly. ====================================== 🔔 Want even more from The Celtic Exchange?

Maeda Gets His Moment As Celtic Edge Motherwell In Five Goal Thriller

Sun, 05 Oct 2025 19:26:00 -0000

Both teams came into the match unbeaten in the Scottish Premiership, and while Motherwell will feel they’d done enough to take something from the game, it was Celtic who found that extra touch of quality when it mattered most to seal a vital victory.

There’s no denying that Brendan Rodgers’ side are still short of their best, but as they work to rediscover their top form, the most important thing is to keep winning and, domestically at least, that’s (mostly) what the Bhoys have been doing.

Celtic now head into the international break just two points behind league leaders Hearts, setting up a intriguing top-of-the-table clash at the end of the month.

🎙️ Join Tino & Greg as they break down all the key talking points from an eventful afternoon at Celtic Park.

Under the lights at a subdued Celtic Park, the team stumbled through yet another European disappointment. We know the Daizen Maeda question still lingers - but are we now also facing a Kasper Schmeichel problem, a Callum McGregor problem… and perhaps more besides? Few players earned pass marks on the night, though Sebastian Tounekti again deserves credit as he continues to look like our main attacking threat. Serious questions must also be asked of the manager. Once more, his side looked unmotivated and uninspired, failing to score for the fifth time this season. Right now, various concerns run through every part of Celtic. The Braga defeat is simply the latest one. 🎙️ Join Tino and Paddy as they dissect another grim European night for Celtic.

The Battle Continues At Celtic - But Is A Breakthrough Now In Sight?

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 21:28:00 -0000

Tensions remain high between Celtic fans and the club, but as of tonight the story has taken a new twist with the club reaching out to supporters, offering a meeting at the beginning of next week to discuss the ongoing unrest at this time.

In conjunction with the Celtic Fans Collective, supporters have now accepted this offer and will look to make progress following recent protests.
On that note, the planned silences against Braga and Motherwell have now been cancelled!

This crucial update broke as we were recording and so we were able to give our most up to date thoughts on the development.

We also preview tomorrow's all important Europa League clash with Braga as Brendan Rodgers' men look to get their first win on the board in what's been another dramatic week in Celtic. And it's only Wednesday!

=================

Although the stats can often paint a different picture, the only numbers that truly matter in football are goals scored and goals conceded. For Celtic (and Hibs), both columns stayed blank as Brendan Rodgers’ side played out another goalless draw this season.

Unsurprisingly, many fans have voiced their frustration at the result. And while it was disappointing not to claim all three points, there are still clear reasons for optimism after this latest outing from a new look Celtic side.

Should we have taken some of the clear-cut chances we created? Absolutely. Could the likes of Tounekti, Iheanacho, and Maeda perform at a higher level than they showed on the day? Without question.

But the encouraging part is that we are creating chances, and there’s a genuine sense that this team will soon hit the form we know these players are capable of.

The concern, however, is that Hearts continue to get the job done elsewhere, and following the latest round of Scottish Premiership results, Celtic now find themselves in the unusual position of looking up at the Edinburgh side sitting top of the table.

The Bhoys will need to find another gear quickly - both domestically and in Europe - with another busy week ahead.

You don't quite know what to expect from Celtic right now - on and off the park - and this weekend will likely be no different as we welcome Hibs to Celtic Park for their first visit of the season.
David Gray's side are set to be met with a wall of silence - at least for the opening 12 minutes - as fans continue to protest against the current regime, and the big hope is that this doesn't affect the players too much as they look to maintain their unbeaten start to the league campaign.
On the pitch there's plenty of intrigue as the likes of Sebastian Tounekti, Kelechi Iheanacho & Michel-Ange Balikwisha look to make their mark on the starting XI, while young Colby Donovan continues to make a name for himself as he deputises at right back.
It's also the first time Celtic have played at home since the calamity of the summer transfer window and many fans will want to make their feelings known to the board. Whether that happens before or after minute 12 remains to be seen!

Kelech Me If You Can - Celtic Settle For A Draw In Belgrade

=================

Celtic came away from Belgrade with a draw from last night’s Europa League opener against Red Star – but should it be viewed as a point gained, or two dropped?
Following a fairly even first half Brendan Rodgers made the call to replace Daizen Maeda with Kelechi Iheanacho at half time and just ten minutes later Celtic got their reward with the ex-Man City man tucking away a brilliant opening goal.
Frustration then stems from what looks like a very avoidable equaliser for the hosts as we first conceded and then properly failed to defend a corner, allowing Marko Arnautovic to draw his side level.
There would be no further scoring at the Rajko Mitic Stadim with both sides having to settle for a stalemate on Matchday 1, but Celtic can take great confidence from a breakthrough performance by 19-year-old Colby Donovan, as well as another impressive cameo by Iheanacho.
HOWEVER, questions do remain over Daizen Maeda’s place in the lineup following another out of sorts display, as well as what seems to be a disjointed midfield three at this moment in time.

Celtic take on Serbian Champions Red Star Belgrade tonight on Matchday 1 of this season’s Europa League and it’s a challenge Brendan Rodgers and his players are thriving on. Yes we’re all disappointed at failing to make the Champions League this time round but this tournament is one that offers intrigue and excitement with the genuine possibility of progression IF Celtic make the strides that Rodgers is hoping for from his new look group. For Sebastian Tounekti, Benji Nygren, Colby Donovan and others it’s also a chance to show they can cut it at this level and alongside their teammates they’ll be eager to impress on the European stage. An intimidating home crowd of 50,000+ will be waiting for the players tonight but that in itself is something the manager has encouraged his side to embrace. If we want to rectify some of the damage from the Kairat Almaty result then it all starts here. 🎙️ Join Tino for the Countdown To Kick Off Show as Celtic get set to face Red Star Belgrade in the Rajco Mitic Stadium

Celtic are back in cup action this weekend with a short trip to Firhill to face Partick Thistle in Sunday’s League Cup Quarter Final.

Before the weekend fully kicked off though, the club quietly released their year-end financial results on Friday tea-time, and we take a closer look at the key numbers making the headlines, along with the long awaited Chairman’s statement.

On the pitch, the game gives Brendan Rodgers’ side another chance to find the “rhythm” he’s been calling for, as they aim once again for a return to Hampden under his stewardship

And for new signings Sebastian Tounekti, Michel-Ange Balikwisha, Kelechi Iheanacho and others, it’s a further opportunity to impress and strengthen their claim for a place in the manager’s starting XI.

Standing in the way is ex-Celt Mark Wilson who's made a decent start to life in the Thistle dugout, and he’ll be determined to make things as tough as possible for his old club in what promises to be an intriguing cup tie.

Protests & Penalties | Iheanacho's Late Spot Kick Seals The Win On A Day Of Drama At Rugby Park

=================

It was a day of tension, of drama, and ultimately of relief as Celtic snatched all three points on a topsy-turvy Sunday at Rugby Park. As planned, the travelling support made their feelings clear before kick-off, staging a powerful protest against the board by refusing to enter until the 12th minute — a nod to their role as the “12th Man.” A statement that surely made for uncomfortable viewing in the directors’ box. On the pitch, though, Celtic took time to find their rhythm. Despite dominating possession in the first half, the breakthrough wouldn’t come. Enter new Bhoy Sebastian Tounekti. The Tunisian winger lit up the second half with a sparkling debut, driving at the Kilmarnock defence and constantly asking questions. Daizen Maeda’s opener would be cancelled out by the hosts, but the drama was far from over. Deep into stoppage time, another debutant — Kelechi Iheanacho — stepped up and coolly dispatched a 96th-minute penalty to seal a dramatic 2-1 win. It wasn’t a swashbuckling performance by any stretch, but it was certainly a day to remember — both for what happened on the park and in the stands. 🎙️ Join Tino & James as they relive an eventful and (mostly) enjoyable Sunday at Rugby Park.

A Statement of Contempt: Celtic Miss the Target Yet Again

Mon, 08 Sep 2025 22:17:00 -0000

At a time when it already felt impossible for Celtic to make things worse, the club managed exactly that at the weekend - with a statement that truly has to be read to be believed. Rather than accepting any responsibility for the summer’s transfer failings, Saturday night’s release instead pointed the finger elsewhere in a blatant attempt to deflect from the board’s own shortcomings - a move which has spectacularly backfired. In response, several key supporters’ groups have now issued a vote of no confidence in the board, as the unrest continues to grow. The stand-off between the club and its fans shows no sign of easing, and the eventual outcome is far from clear. Meanwhile, Brendan Rodgers’ side - including the latest new signings - return to action against Kilmarnock on Sunday. Yet with the fallout from the statement still dominating the conversation, it feels like a long road between now and then before supporters can focus on the football again. All eyes are now on the club’s next move, as they attempt to repair a crisis all of their own making. 🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they break it all down in the latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

"I Was There": A Daughter, A Father, A Final - Maura McColgan On Experiencing Celtic's Finest Hour

Fri, 05 Sep 2025 18:15:00 -0000

Celtic’s finest hour, as we all know, came on that sun-drenched afternoon in Lisbon on May 25th, 1967. Over the years, we’ve all heard the tales of that historic day — how Jock Stein’s men stood toe to toe with the mighty Inter Milan, and how they roared back from a goal down to claim the biggest prize in European football. But imagine being able to say: “I was there.” Inspired by club historian and author Pat Woods, our new Celtic Exchange series brings you the voices of the lucky ones who made it to Lisbon, sharing their memories in their own words. In this episode, we’re joined by Maura McColgan, who relives her unforgettable journey alongside her father — himself a former Celt — as they travelled from Glasgow to Portugal. From the excitement of the trip, to the electric atmosphere inside the stadium, and the sheer joy when the final whistle blew… it’s all here in this very special episode. ------------------------------- 🏆 If you, or someone you know, were in Lisbon that day, get in touch — your story could feature in a future episode of “I Was There.” 📧 Email: tino@thecelticexchange.com

Matt offers unique insights into fan power, accountability, and why – despite the financial progress off the pitch – there are still striking similarities in how supporters are treated today.

Mon, 01 Sep 2025 21:24:00 -0000

On this Transfer Deadline Day, Tino's joined in the studio by James, Mif and Paddy to assess what has been another hugely frustrating window for Celtic. Despite the glaring opportunity to build from a position of strength for the season ahead, the same issues seem to crop up time and again - last minute deals, missed opportunities, and a playing squad that, as it stands, feels woefully short of what’s required. In this episode, we discuss: 🤔 Where the window went wrong for Celtic, and why history keeps repeating itself. 📈 The lack of clear strategy from the board and recruitment team. ⚽️ How these failings in turn impact Brendan Rodgers and the current squad ahead. It’s been another summer of discontent in Paradise - will the lessons ever be learned? 🎙️ Tune in to the full squad for this very latest - and incredibly frustrating 🙃 - Celtic Exchange Weekly!

Maybe we should have seen this one coming...

Following two woeful performances against Kairat Almaty, Celtic turned in another dire display this afternoon as they played out an uninspiring goalless draw with Rangers at Ibrox.

It was a game low on quality and low on enjoyment as the sides cancelled each other out in the lunchtime kick off to leave us wondering just how it's all become so flat, so quickly.

Without doubt the lack of new blood in the side has played a part in the malaise we're currently witnessing and the hope now is that we'll see notable transfer activity in the next 24 hours - otherwise we could be set for a long season ahead.

🎙️ Join Tino & James for this one as they discuss Celtic's latest below par perfomance, and what it all means at this early stage in the campaign.

Celtic’s Week of “What Ifs” – Will We Bounce Back at Ibrox?

What if Celtic had signed Balikwisha BEFORE our Champions League play-off tie? What if Daizen Maeda had converted his one-on-one? And what if Arne Engels had stepped up for our first penalty? A week of “what ifs” for Celtic - and it’s far from over! After Tuesday night’s exit at the hands of Kairat Almaty, we were left imagining what could have been in Thursday’s Champions League draw, before tuning in today (Friday) to see what the “poorer cousin” had in store. And while the draw threw up some intriguing ties, we’re not quite in the mood to focus on that just yet. What really matters right now is Sunday’s visit to Ibrox - though that in itself is raising more questions than answers. Will Idah and Yang still be at the club? Should Balikwisha be thrown in from the start? And will we see a much needed response from Calmac and co.? 🎙️ It’s all happening at the minute, and Tino was joined by Asim in the studio to unpack all of the above and more in this Friday night special.

You’d struggle to find two performances worse than Celtic’s over the two legs against Kairat Almaty. And in the end, we got exactly what we deserved, with the Kazakhs advancing in the Champions League Play-Off Round.

The post-mortem starts here, and the big question is - how did it all come to this?

Is it the result of a puzzling transfer strategy? A tactical misstep by the manager? Or are some players simply not giving their all?

At this point, we don’t have all the answers. What we do know however is that the fanbase is beyond frustrated and are demanding explanations for this latest disappointment.

It’s not entitlement to expect your club to perform at its best with the resources it has. Right now, though, Celtic can make no such claim, having fallen short in this crucial test.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Celtic On The Edge | Transfers, Tension, and European Tests

Mon, 25 Aug 2025 20:57:00 -0000

This week on Celtic Exchange Weekly, Tino's joined by Paddy, James, and Mif as they go deep on what is a massive week for Celtic.

On and off the pitch, the team faces critical challenges.

First up it's the crucial play off tie against Kairat Almaty which could set the tone for our European ambitions this season, before we then make the trip to Ibrox for the first Glasgow derby of the season - and a chance to go 9 clear of Rangers.

Off the field, the summer transfer window enters its final seven days, and tension is mounting (Re-mounting? 🤔) over whether Celtic will secure the key signings needed to strengthen the squad.

Throw in a European draw on Thursday (Champions League or Europa...) and it makes for a manic week in the world of Celtic - but we wouldn't have it any other way!

Maybe...

🎙️ Join the full squad for this one as the boys bring you the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.

=================

It was all change at Celtic Park for this one, as Brendan Rodgers made no fewer than eight alterations to his starting line-up following the midweek draw with Kairat Almaty.

With one eye on Tuesday’s return leg in Kazakhstan, Rodgers handed starts to the likes of Dane Murray, Paulo Bernardo, and Shin Yamada, while Hayato Inamura made his first competitive appearance for the club.

The experimental line-up was a gamble - but one that paid off, as the Bhoys ran out 3-0 winners to maintain their perfect start to the league campaign.

Benjamin Nygren claimed Man of the Match thanks to his two-goal contribution, leaving Celtic in good spirits ahead of Tuesday’s clash.

Celtic return to league action tomorrow, and while Brendan Rodgers insists the focus is firmly on the match against Livingston, it’s hard to ignore the possibility of lingering effects from Wednesday night’s disappointing performance against Kairat Almaty.

Adding to the challenge, the manager will be without Alistair Johnston, Adam Idah, and Auston Trusty, while Daizen Maeda is nursing a knock from midweek - but should be available.

Newly promoted Livingston may see this as a chance to cause an upset, but the hope is that those stepping in can help extend Celtic’s perfect start to the league season.

Tensions are running high among supporters after last night’s 0-0 draw with Kairat Almaty – a result that leaves our hopes of reaching the Champions League proper hanging by a thread. And the most frustrating part? It doesn’t have to be this way. Smart investment in January, and in the summer transfer window to date could very likely have seen us breeze past the Kazakhstan champions. Instead, it’s now a coin toss as to who will progress. We take a close look at the game itself, as well as the bigger picture behind the scenes at Celtic – following a night that promised so much, but delivered so little! 🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy, and James as the boys break it all down and let their feelings be known.

A strong result at Celtic Park would seem a must given our results historically on Kazakhstan soil and a full house will be there to roar the Bhoys on in this one.

The manager's options may be limited - particularly in the forward areas - but he feels that his side have enough in the locker to take care of business before completing the job in next week's return.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: High Stakes Ahead - A Week That Could Shape Celtic's Season

Mon, 18 Aug 2025 20:51:00 -0000

This week on the Celtic Exchange Podcast, Tino, James, and Brydo discuss a crucial early juncture in the campaign as Celtic look to navigate their way back to the Champions League for a fourth successive season.

Despite having no new signings to report, the team keeps proving they can deliver on the pitch in the meantime, with a solid win over Falkirk in the League Cup following on from a perfect start to the league campaign so far.

The Kairat Almaty fixture however is undoubtedly the priority this week, the outcome of which could go on to define the kind of season we have and the onus is now on Callum McGregor and the players who ARE there to show that we once again belong at the top table of European Football.

Elsewhere we take a look at the news of Dane Murray's contract extension and discuss what part the 22 year od may now have to play in the weeks and months ahead.

🎙️ Tune in as we cover all of the above and more in this latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Live reaction on the final whistle!

A good night for Celtic on the rare occasion of Friday Night Football as they swept Falkirk aside on their way to the Quarter Finals of the Premier Sports Cup.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Celtic Are Two From Two - But The Wins Don't Hide The Worries

Mon, 11 Aug 2025 19:21:00 -0000

This week on Celtic Exchange Weekly, we look at Celtic's perfect start to the season with Brendan Rodgers' side now two wins from two, despite the ongoing concerns over our lack of key transfer activity. Its affecting the fans, its certainly getting to the manager, and in some ways it must also be having an impact on the players. The wins are all well and good, but they don’t mask the growing worries about the general direction in which the club seems to be heading. We debate over why they're acting in the way that they are, and on the possibility - with just three weeks now remaining - that they may somehow prove everyone wrong with a miraculous turnaround! Elsewhere the Adam Idah question remains with the striker drawing another blank at the weekend and he must now be looking over his shoulder with Rodgers' publicly stating his desire for more options at the top end of the pitch. 🎙️ Join Tino, James & Brydo for this one as they cover all of the above and more in the latest Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic in the 80s: Glory Days and the Centenary Dream

Thu, 07 Aug 2025 18:15:00 -0000

In nearly 140 years of rich Celtic history, few decades capture the essence of the club quite like the 1980s.

It was a time of immense talent, unforgettable triumphs, and sheer drama - a golden era packed with highs, heartbreaks, and heroic comebacks.

The Hoops not only battled the traditional rivalry with Rangers, but also faced fierce challenges from the likes of Aberdeen, Dundee United, and Hearts.

Through it all, Celtic delivered some of the most cherished seasons in living memory.

The era was defined by big personalities and iconic figures - names like Paul McStay, Tommy Burns, Danny McGrain, and of course, the legendary Billy McNeill - all of whom left an indelible mark on the club.

In this special episode, Tino is joined by editor Matt Corr to reflect on this unforgettable decade, as we look ahead to the release of "Celtic In The Eighties", the final book written by the late, great David Potter before his sad passing in July 2023.

It’s a heartfelt tribute to one of the most beloved periods in Celtic’s story - and one that continues to resonate with generations of fans.*

Mon, 04 Aug 2025 21:51:00 -0000

Celtic may have opened the season with a win on Flag Day, but it wasn't all smiles at Celtic Park given the ongoing frustrations of the transfer window - for both fans, and for the manager himself!

In this week's show Tino, James & Paddy reflect on the opening day performance and share their mixed feelings about how it all played out.

Beyond the result, deeper questions are starting to emerge about the club's ambition - and whether or not it matches that of Brendan Rodgers.

Elsewhere we discuss our Champions League Play Off draw, and also the ambitions of Hearts under new investor Tony Bloom.

Wed, 30 Jul 2025 21:11:00 -0000

✅ What’s fueling the excitement as the campaign kicks off?
❌ Why has the club been so slow in the transfer market – and is this becoming a worrying pattern?

We also look at how the squad is shaping up, and what Celtic need to do now to stay ahead domestically – and to be ready for Europe.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: The Bhoys Are Back | The Summer Shake-Up Gets Underway

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 16:45:00 -0000

With pre-season fast approaching, there's a buzz building around Celtic once again – and this week on the first Celtic Exchange Weekly of the new campaign, we dive into the latest comings and goings as the squad begins to take shape for the new season.

Brendan Rodgers already has some new players to work with as Benjamin Nygren and Callum Osman set to join up with KT, Ross Doohan and the rest of the squad in the coming days.

We discuss what the new Bhoys might bring to the party and what impact they may have in green & white.

Of course, it’s not all about arrivals – several players have moved on including stalwart Greg Taylor and a couple of Academy prospects - we take stock of what those departures mean for the club and how new Player Pathway Manager Shaun Maloney can improve our fortunes there.

With European qualifiers looming and a title to defend, we also look ahead to what fans can expect in the coming weeks, and share our early thoughts ahead of our latest crack at the Champions League.

Staying Ahead Of The Game - Celtic’s Response To The Ibrox Investment

Fri, 06 Jun 2025 16:46:00 -0000

With American investment now confirmed at Ibrox, we’re joined by financial expert and well-known Celtic figure David Low to unpack what it all means for Celtic – both now and in the long term. What does this latest move say about Rangers' ambitions? How might Celtic respond – or should we respond at all? And what could this mean for the wider landscape of Scottish football? Plenty to get into in this one as we separate the headlines from the hard facts – and ask whether this is a threat, an opportunity, or just more noise from across the city. 🎙️ Join Tino and David Low on this latest special episode from The Celtic Exchange

The Hampden Hangover Special: Are This Celtic Side Now At A Crossroads?

Tue, 27 May 2025 06:00:00 -0000

Just when we thought the treble was over the line, Celtic delivered a Hampden head-scratcher to leave us all thinking what might have been.

With a few days to digest the Cup Final disappointment, the lads are back around the mics to unpack exactly what went wrong — and where we go from here.

👀 Did Brendan Rodgers get the team selection wrong?

😬 Were too many players coasting on guaranteed starts?

🥱 Was it a case of complacency… or just plain burnout?

We also debate whether the January decision not to replace Kyogo may have quietly derailed our season — and if a big summer rebuild is now unavoidable.

Elsewhere, we chat potential Champions League play-off opponents, KT’s final flourish at Arsenal, and say a heartfelt farewell to the cult hero that is Scott Bain (all hail the Bainiacs 🫡).

All that plus some final reflections on a season of highs, lows, and Hampden heartbreak.

🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly

Sun, 25 May 2025 14:15:00 -0000

Aberdeen’s dogged performance and nerveless penalties exposed cracks in the champions' foundation on a day of frustration for Brendan Rodgers' side. In this final post-match show of the season, we dissect what went wrong. Was it tactical stagnation? Mental fragility, or just a bad day at the office? 🎙️ Join Tino and Paddy for The Final Whistle Show as Celtic ended the season in disappointment with defeat at Hampden.

Treble in Sight: Forrest’s Fairytale, Rodgers’ Future & Celtic Farewells

Tue, 20 May 2025 05:55:00 -0000

As Celtic prepare for a monumental Scottish Cup Final showdown with Aberdeen, the Bhoys now stand just 90 minutes away from securing a record-extending 9th domestic Treble.

In this week's episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly, we break down the major talking points ahead of this historic clash.

We pay tribute to James Forrest, whose stunning 94th-minute equaliser last weekend cemented his place in club folklore — now having scored in 16 consecutive seasons for Celtic. With over 100 goals, over 100 assists, and 26 trophies, is the one-club man gearing up for an extended stay in Paradise?

And what of Brendan Rodgers? Will he stay beyond next season? Fresh off collecting the Football Writers' Manager of the Year award, he’s chasing a third Treble with Celtic — but is there more to come from his second spell in charge?

Plus, we discuss potential farewells at Celtic Park, including Greg Taylor’s emotional post, the return of Kieran Tierney, and who else might be playing their final game in green and white.

All that, plus our weekly "5-in-a-Row" quiz, ahead of what could be yet another historic week for Celtic!

Different Line-Up But Same Outcome As Celtic Fire Aberdeen A Cup Final Warning

Wed, 14 May 2025 22:08:00 -0000

The Champions returned to Paradise in style, delivering a comfortable 3-1 win over Hibs in the first home match since sealing the title.

Goals from Nicolas Kühn, Adam Idah, and Reo Hatate sealed the deal, with Brendan Rodgers’ side turning on the flair in front of the home crowd.

Despite falling behind early to a Martin Boyle strike, the Hoops responded with composure and class. Kühn’s sharp equaliser and a clinical finish from Idah flipped the game before half-time, capping off a first-half performance that oozed control and creativity.

The second half was more of the same from the Champions, with Reo Hatate adding a moment of magic to settle the result.

In addition we saw a first team debut for 17-year-old Sean McArdle as he becomes the latest Academy graduate to feature for Brendan Rodgers' side.

All in all a good day for the Champions, who now turn attention to Wednesday's trip to Pittodrie.

TCE WEEKLY: Better Than All The Rest | Tina Turner CSC On Song At Ibrox

Tue, 06 May 2025 19:19:00 -0000

CELTIC HAVE OVERTAKEN Rangers’ trophy haul, and now we’re stealing their songs as well as the Bhoys maintained their unassailable 17 point lead with a draw at Ibrox.

It was a game that in all honestly played out like the end of season affair that it was but as always there was plenty to discuss both on and off the park following the last Glasgow Derby of the season.

Elsewhere Daizen Maeda confirmed his status as the standout player in the country by lifting no less than 4 awards at the weekend between Celtic’s own presentation night as well as that of the PFA.

In other news the club have confirmed a pre-season friendly where they’ll take on Newcastle United in the inaugural “adidas Trophy” – BUT, is this one that should have been made free to season ticket holders?

TCE WEEKLY: Extended Champions Edition | Celtic Are 4-In-A-Row Champions Of Scotland

Mon, 28 Apr 2025 19:30:00 -0000

Celtic made history at the weekend by becoming the first team in Scotland to win 55 league titles (Kenny Dalglish’s words, not ours 👀) as they sealed the Scottish Premiership for a fourth successive season.

The Bhoys were on fire as they hit 5 goals for the 3rd game in succession and Brendan Rodgers’ side have found the perfect time to hit top form with us now firmly in the business end of the season.

Special credit must go to James Forrest – now the most decorated Celt in history – but once again it’s been a huge team effort from all involved as our place at the top of Scottish Football was cemented once again.

We look at the key players and some of the most important games from the campaign so far, and also take a glance at what may be next in the evolution of this team under Brendan Rodgers.

🎙️ Join Tino, James & Mif as they cover all of the above and more in this special extended version of The Celtic Exchange Weekly

A Point To Prove | Celtic Aiming To Take The Title At Tannadice

Fri, 25 Apr 2025 11:54:00 -0000

CELTIC NEED JUST one point to secure a 4th successive Scottish Premiership Title and Callum McGregor and his team-mates are fully focused on the job at hand as they get set to take on Dundee Utd.

Jim Goodwin's side are having a strong campaign of their own but for Celtic there's no bigger motivator then proving yourself once again as the best team in the country.

Should we get the point we need at Tannadice james Forrest will OFFICIALLY become Celtic's most decorated player, and what an achievement that would be for the one club man!

It's all to play for in the lunchtime kick-off, no matter how 'tedious' some naysayers will claim it is to be serial winners!

TCE WEEKLY: One Step Closer | McGregor Leads The Way As Celtic’s Treble Train Rolls On

Tue, 22 Apr 2025 06:00:00 -0000

CELTIC TOOK a massive step towards the treble at the weekend with a whirlwind display against St Johnstone which blew the Perth side away and paved the way for another showcase finale to the season.

The result means the Bhoys will be back at Hampden once again at the end of May, knowing that a win against Aberdeen could see yet another clean sweep of all three of Scottish Football’s trophies.

Captain Callum McGregor led the way against the Saints but was ably supported by a resurgent Reo Hatate who seems to have found the perect time of the campaign to hit top form.

Elsewhere we saw more Daizen Maeda magic as well as goals from Adam Idah and Jota as Brendan Rodgers side went all out to take their place in this season’s final.

Before all that however there’s the small matter of what could turn out to be a Title Party at Tannadice this weekend, with the Hoops needing just one point to seal a fourth consecutive title.

It’s all shaping up for a big end to the campaign as Rodgers and his players look to cement their status as the No.1 club in the country!

IT TOOK CELTIC just 24 first half minutes against Kilmarnock to show that the message from manager Brendan Rodgers' had been received loud and clear with the three points never in doubt against a shell-shocked Kilmarnock side.

TCE WEEKLY: A Line In The Sand | Time For Celtic To Show Why They're Champions

Tue, 08 Apr 2025 06:02:00 -0000

CELTIC are the undisputed best team in Scotland - but they certainly aren't acting like that right now.

With a max of just 8 games now remaining of the season it's now time for the Bhoys to draw a line in the sand and prove just why their the top team in the country.

TCE Weekly: Bhoys Are Back In Town As Forrest And Bernardo Return For The Run-In

Tue, 01 Apr 2025 05:15:00 -0000

CELTIC GOT BACK to winning ways at the weekend and crucially the manager was able to call on the services of two big players who could yet have a big part to play in Celtic's chase for the Treble.

Paulo Bernardo adds guile and a touch of class to the midfield, while Forrest brings a tonne of experience and quality in the wide areas and the manager will be delighted by their return.

After chalking up their latest 3 points the Bhoys are now closing in on the title with a 13 point gap and just 7 games remaining as they head towards a fourth successive title.

The Scottish Cup is on the back burner until April's visit to Hampden where we'll face St Johnstone, but the prospect of yet another Cup Final is one for all to look forward to.

TCE Weekly: Bouncebackability! Its Definitely A Word, But Have Celtic Got It?

Tue, 25 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0000

DESPITE THEIR POSITION as clear front runners in the Scottish Premiership table, Celtic's players will have felt the sting of the criticism that came their way following the defeat by Rangers last time out.

There's only one way to respond to that, and its to get back to scoring goals, and winning games of football, and this weekend is their next chance to do just that.

A treble may well be on the cards, but that's on the back burner for now as the Bhoys aim to show just why they're the top team in the country.

We also review the international fortunes of the players who've been off representing their countries and discussion what the long-term succession plan may be for retuning skipper Callum McGregor.

🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they cover the above and much more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

TCE Weekly: Derby Day Ja Vu | Celtic Fail To Learn The Lessons Once Again

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0000

IF YOU THOUGHT CELTIC couldn't turn in another performance like the one we saw at Ibrox back in January then think again.

But once again that was the case - at least for the first half of Sunday's Derby - and fans were left scratching their heads once more at our recent failings in this fixture.

For a side who are cruising to a fourth consecutive league title its a puzzler at best, and one that Brendan Rodgers will want to find the answer to ASAFP.

In addition to the events of the game itself we also discuss an off field incident regarding what seems to be some heavy handed policing of the Green Brigade in the hours before kick off, which ultimately led to their members missing the game in its entirety.

🎙️ Join Tino, James & Mif as they cover the above and much more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Let's Go And Wrap Up The Title | Celtic v Rangers Big Match Preview

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 19:30:00 -0000

CELTIC HOLD AN incredible 16 point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table with just 9 games remaining and are now in touching distance of a fourth consecutive title.

A win on Sunday against second placed Rangers would almost certainly put it to bed which would be a suitable reward for a side who have dominated from start to finish this season.

Daizen maeda goes in to the game in the form of his life but it could also be a big day for guys like Arne Engels, the returning Jota and Jeffrey Schlupp who looks set to make his debut in this fixture.

All in all its all set up to be another beautiful Sunday at Celtic Park.

TCE Weekly: 20/20 Vision | Rodgers' Record Has Us Heading To Hampden Targeting The Treble

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0000

A PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE against Hibs ensured that Celtic will be heading back to Hampden once again where we'll take our place in this season's Scottish Cup Semi-Finals.

And incredibly, if we do take it a step further and reach the Final then we COULD be targeting a 9th treble in our history!

For Brendan Rodgers his record as Celtic manager now reads "Played 20, Won 20" and who would bet against him adding to that tally this season.

In terms of the week ahead we're now gearing up for the latest Glasgow Derby as we get set to take on Rangers on Sunday at Celtic Park where the manager and his players will be looking to exact revenge following the defeat at Ibrox in January.

CELTIC TAKE ON the form side in the country this weekend as David Gray's Hibs side come calling in Scottish Cup action.

The Edinburgh side recorded a 2-1 win over us at Easter Road just a couple of weeks ago, and revenge will very much be on the mind of Brendan Rodgers and his players.

TCE Weekly: Yang-er Management | Brendan Has The Bhoys Ticking Towards 4 In A Row

Tue, 04 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0000

YANG WAS THE MAN on Saturday night as Celtic (eventually!) blew away St Mirren in Paisley, thanks to the South Korean winger's match winning appearance from the bench.

The young winger is flying high right now but in truth so are so many of his team-mates with Daizen Maeda, Arne Engels, Alistair Johnston and others all showing their qualities at this crucial stage in the campaign.

Manager Brendan Rodgers must take much of the credit for what we're seeing from this talented group, with his side now just 3 wins from securing a 4th successive title!

CELTIC ARE BACK in league action on Saturday as they take on St Mirren in a rare tea-time kick off in Paisley

Wed, 26 Feb 2025 16:53:00 -0000

CELTIC SHOOK OFF the effects of the disappointing loss to Hibs at the weekend by smashing 5 goals past Aberdeen on an entertaining night at Celtic Park.

The night was bookended by a couple of Daizen Maeda goals (who else!) but there were a number of top performers ion the night including Jota, Callum McGregor and Arne Engels.

The result leaves the Bhoys honing in on a fourth consecutive title, knowing that we COULD now be Champions once again in just 5 wins times!

TCE Weekly: Euro Progress Must Be Built On As Celtic Switch Focus Back To Domestic Dominance

Tue, 25 Feb 2025 06:30:00 -0000

FOLLOWING THEIR TRAVELS in Munich, Celtic faced domestic defeat for just the second time this season at Easter Road, as an uncharacteristically poor display saw Hibs take all three points at the weekend.

In the bigger picture however it may prove insignificant as the path to an incredible 9th treble is now as clear as it gets with no European involvement now until next season.

The Bhoys will be keen to put the Easter Road defeat behind them and have a chance to do so as early as this midweek as Aberdeen come calling at Celtic Park.

Elsewhere we look at what it may take to see the best out of Adam Idah and at what Celtic in general need to go to the next level in Europe.

Celtic EXTEND Their Lead At The Top Despite Capital Loss Against Hibs

Sun, 23 Feb 2025 12:41:00 -0000

IT WAS ONE OF THOSE DAYS for Brendan Rodgers and his team, as a rare domestic off day saw them suffer defeat in Scotland for just the second time this season.

Hibs were well drilled under David Gray and deserved to go in ahead at the break. But despite the best efforts of Daizen Maeda the Hoops were unable to claw their way back.

They may have done so, but for a very questionable VAR call and it'll be interesting to see how that one is explained in the coming days.

Bizarrely however the day's results saw us go a goal FURTHER ahead in the table, following Rangers' latest Ibrox horror show.

What Next For This Celtic Side?

Fri, 21 Feb 2025 20:52:00 -0000

NOW THAT THE DUST HAS SETTLED on Celtic's valiant perfomance in Munich, its a good time to reflect on where this side now goes under the guidance of Brendan Rodgers.

This season's Champions League campaign has given the confidence that we CAN compete in the top tier of European Football - so the question is, how do we now take it to the next level?

On the domestic front an incredible 9th treble is now a serious target for the club, as we close out what would be another spectacular season.

And some quick maths tells us we could now be JUST TEN wins from making that a reality!

This Celtic Side Are On The Up And Up | A Proud Perfomance Against Bayern Munich

Wed, 19 Feb 2025 16:45:00 -0000

BRENDAN RODGERS challenged his players to play without fear against Bayern Munich and that's exactly what played out as the Bhoys put in one of their best and bravest European performances in years.

Nicolas Kuhn's second half strike had us dreaming, but in truth it'd be hard to single out any one player as a huge team effort had the German giants on the ropes.

A cruel late goal meant it wasn't to be, but Celtic must now view this as a crossroads in our aspirations to become a regular challenger at European football's top table.

🎙️ Join Tino & Brydo for The Final Whistle Show following Celtic's clash with Bayern Munich in the Champions League Playoff Stage.

CELTIC HEAD TO MUNICH with a mountain to climb as they look to overturn last week's result against German giants Bayern Munich, but its a task that Brendan Rodgers firmly believes his side are capable of.

And while there can be no doubting the size of the challenge that awaits the Bhoys in the Allianz Arena, they travel with a genuine belief that on the night they ARE capable of pulling off what would be an incredible result.

With players such as Daizen Maeda, Nicolas Kuhn and Jota in your ranks, ANYTHING is possible and players and fans alike will be giving their absolute all as we once again look to make history!

CELTIC SHOWED their increasing maturity in Europe once again last night as they put in a brave perfomance against Champions League big hitters Bayern Munich.

As expected the Germans had the majority of possession for large spells - especially inthe first half - but Brendan Rodgers' side showed great character to fight back from two goals down to keep themselves in with at least a slim chance in Munich next week.

Daizen Maeda's red hot form continues and the Japanese front man showed once again that he was the man for the big occasion by grabbing our all important goal on the night.

All Systems Go This Week As Celtic Look To Make A Massive Statement On The European Stage

Tue, 11 Feb 2025 06:00:00 -0000

MAKE NO MISTAKE, this week's match up with German giants Bayern Munich poses a real tough test test for Celtic, but for the manager, the players, and fans alike, we wouldn't have it any other way!

Brendan Rodgers' men have found themselves in fine form in February and though the visit of Harry Kane & Co. presents a very different test its one they should go into with some confidence.

Let's see what the big game brings!

Thu, 06 Feb 2025 18:17:00 -0000

WHAT STRIKER CRISIS?!

In the wake of an underwhelming January transfer window Celtic put in one of their best display's of the season to remind us just how much talent Brendan Rodgers' has at his disposal.

Top goalscorer Daizen Maeda - now on 18 for the season - was the main man on the night but hot on his heels was returning superstar Jota as Celtic's forward line dazzled the Dundee defence.

The result restores the Bhoys' 13 point lead at the top of the table with just 13 games remaining and keeps us firmly in the driving seat for a fourth consecutive Scottish Premiership title.

The Storm After The Transfer Window Calm | January Window Reaction + Dundee Preview

Tue, 04 Feb 2025 19:08:00 -0000

THE JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW has now firmly closed but it looks like the debates surrounding it will rumble on for a while yet amongst supporters.

From the outside looking in it does seem like a failing to support the manager - particularly on the striker front - but not everyone sees it that way.

The return of Jota has provided an undoubted boost, and so too has the news that Kieran Tierney will follow suit in summer.

In the meantime loan signing Jeffrey Schlupp from Crystal Palace will provide cover in the left back area.

Meanwhile on the park we're now firmly in the post-Kyogo era with the Bhoys back in action against Dundee at Celtic Park on Wednesday night - a game that provides the opportunity to extend the gap once again to 13 points!

You'll Never Want A Loan | Celtic Take It To The Wire On Puzzling Transfer Deadline Day

Tue, 04 Feb 2025 07:00:00 -0000

THE RETURN OF JOTA has already brought great joy to the Celtic fans as the Portuguese superstar sealed his comeback with a last gasp goal against Motherwell.

What isn't bringing quite so much delight however is what seems to be the underwhelming final hours of the January transfer window with the club scrambling about to bolster Brendan Rodgers' side with a couple of uninspiring loan signings.

We hear often how difficult a window January can be to make effective signings, but surely the club could do better than this?

It seems to have left many of the fans disappointed, and the fear is that the manager will feel exactly the same way!

Sun, 02 Feb 2025 19:23:00 -0000

IT WAS WRITTEN in the stars for Jota today as our returning Portuguese star clinched the all important third goal at Fir Park to send the visiting fans home happy.

It was an emotional moment for the winger and you could see just how much it meant to him as he celebrated with the supporters.

Celtic now head in to the final day of the transfer window with a chance to strengthen ahead of the final few months of the season - but will they be successful in doing so...

Thu, 30 Jan 2025 21:01:00 -0000

DESPITE AN IMPRESSIVE two goal display from Adam Idah, Celtic fell short on an entertaining night at Villa Park as they rounded off their last League Stage game in this season's Champions League with a 4-2 defeat.

Jota's Finally Back On The Wing As Celtic Get Set For Their Next Champions League Challenge

Tue, 28 Jan 2025 19:13:00 -0000

PORTUGUESE SUPERSTAR Jota finally sealed his return to Celtic this week and what a boost to the team as we continue to make smart moves on and off the park.

His arrival somewhat softens the blow of losing talismanic striker Kyogo, but the Japanese frontman will now take on a new challenge in France with Rennes and he goes with all our best wishes following his achievements in green and white.

Whilst other transfer rumours (both in and out) begin to gather more pace, Brendan Rodgers and his players have the small matter of Champions League Matchday 8 and a trip to Villa Park on Wednesday night.

Its a tough challenge, but an exciting one and the players will feel they can get something from the game as they continue to prove they belong at the very top level.

IN TOUGH conditions and on a difficult surface, Celtic (eventually) took care of Ross County with a convincing 4-1 win in the highlands in Saturday's lunchtime kick off

Its a result that takes the Bhoys an incredible 18 points clear at the top of the table and which further confirms the consistency of this side under Brendan Rodgers.

The much talked about Kyogo was the star man with his 2 goal contribution, while Arne Engels put in another commanding perfomance in the middle of the park.

Celtic Head To The Highlands To Take On The Staggies | But Is The League Already Over?

Fri, 10 Jan 2025 13:38:00 -0000

CELTIC head to the Highlands with a massive 15 point lead at the top of the table, but despite having a full 17 league games of the season left, is this "Title Race" already over?

As a hapless Rangers lurch from one poor result to the next its hard to see them mounting any sort of credible challenge, and if anything the Hoops look likely to further stretch their lead in the weeks ahead.

Star man Nicolas Kuhn has led the way across the campaign so far and Brendan Rodgers will hope to have the German winger back fit following his midweek absence as the target another 3 points on the road.

Celtic Take Care Of The Tangerines As Full Song Book Gets Played Out In Paradise

Thu, 09 Jan 2025 20:17:00 -0000

AFTER a few days of mild tension it seems Brendan Rodgers and the Celtic support are back on track again following a sing a long at Celtic Park during last night's clash with Dundee United.

Chants for a number of ex-Hoops heroes could be heard across the 90 minutes and the manager took it in the spirit it was intended when discussing it in his post match comments.

The result itself puts the Bhoys a staggering 16 points clear at the top of the table (for now at least) as they continue to chalk up the wins in the Scottish Premiership.

Brendan Bites Back - But Did He Get It Right?

Tue, 07 Jan 2025 12:15:00 -0000

CELTIC moved 13 points clear at the top of the table with a comprehensive 3-0 win over St Mirren on Sunday, but it was Brendan Rodgers' post match comments which generated most of the headlines!

Following the game the manager made some statements which have resulted in what we'll call a 'mixed' response from some supporters, and in this first Celtic Exchange Weekly of the New Year we assess how accurate - or not - his words were.

On the back of that we also cover the ongoing Kieren Tierney/Greg Taylor chat, and discuss the impact that 16 goal Nicolas Kuhn has had this season - is the German winger now deemed better than Jota?!

🎙️ Join Tino, Paddy, James & Mif as they cover all of the above and more in the first Celtic Exchange Weekly of 2025!

FOLLOWING the Derby defeat by Rangers, Celtic have an early opportunity to bounce back as they take on St Mirren at Celtic Park in Matchday 20 of this season's Scottish Premiership

The Bhoys will be keen to show that the result at Ibrox was just a blip as they aim to get back on track ahead of a big second half of the season.

Rare Derby Day Defeat For Celtic | Where Did It All Go Wrong?

Fri, 03 Jan 2025 17:28:00 -0000

CELTIC fell to their first defeat of the season in the New Year Derby, and Brendan Rodgers and their men will have plenty to think about following an uncharacteristically poor performance.

Despite the Bhoys domestic dominance this season they never got going at Ibrox and that will be a cause of some concern for the manager.

The gap at the top of the table still stands at a huge 11 points, but several issues will have to be ironed out as the Hoops look to kick on at home and abroad in the second half of the season.

🎙️ Join Tino & Paddy for The Final Whistle Show following Celtic's clash with Rangers on Matchday 19 of this season's Scottish Premiership.

Brendan Rodgers Calling The Shots As Celtic Target Perfect Start To The New Year

Wed, 01 Jan 2025 18:32:00 -0000

CELTIC begin 2025 with an incredible 14 point gap over Rangers at the top of the Scottish Premiership table, and despite this season of goodwill Brendan Rodgers doesn't intend to go easy at Ibrox tomorrow.

The manager has now faced up to our Glasgow rivals 20 times, losing just once, and he's not in the mood to give up that record anytime soon.

Speaking ahead of the game he was in confident form and he'll have his players in a similar frame of mind by the time the whistle blows on the south side of the city.

CELTIC dropped league points for just the second time this season as they were held to a goal-less draw against a resilient Dundee United this afternoon at Tannadice.

Attentions will quickly return to other challenges as we return to league action next weekend, but for now the manager and players should take the time to enjoy another incredible moment in Celtic folklore.

TCE Weekly: Champions League, Cup Finals & Kasper - This Is What It Means To Be Celtic

Tue, 10 Dec 2024 07:50:00 -0000

WHAT A WEEK to be a Celtic fan!

Tuesday night will see us play a Champions League fixture that could see us take a massive step towards qualification, before we then turn our attention to the small matter of a Glasgow Derby Cup Final on Sunday!

Its all happening for Brendan and the Bhoys.

The Hoops are currently on a 30 game unbeaten streak domestically and should they extend that at the weekend James Forrest will join Bobby Lennox at the very top of the Celtic record books in terms of major honours collected.

One man who has yet to pick up silverware for Celtic is Kasper Schmeichel but who would bet against that at the weekend given the massive impact the Danish stopper has had as our new No.1.

Its a big week for the club but Brendan Rodgers and his players have shown they mean business this season so far.

Lets get right behind them as the go into this huge double header!

🎙️ Join Tino, James, Paddy & Mif as they cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly

TCE Weekly: Power In Numbers - Celtic's Back-Up Bhoys Stake Their Claim

Tue, 03 Dec 2024 10:00:00 -0000

BRENDAN RODGERS had the luxury on making six changes to the side that drew with Champions league, but saw no dip in quality as his back-up Bhoys ran riot in a 5-0 rout of Ross County.

Its a timely reminder that he has impressive alternatives to call upon when required, and the likes of Luke McCowan, Paulo Bernardo and Adam Idah didn't miss the opportunity to show the manager what they can offer.

They do so in the midst of a hectic run of fixtures and there's every chance we'll be seeing much more of them in the games ahead.

If they and their team-mates can then successfully navigate the relentless festive schedule then we could be all set for a phenomenal New Year!

=======================================================

CELTIC fought back from a poor first half perfomance to take a share of the points against Club Brugge and crucially take one step closer to the last 24 of the Champions League.

It was an out of sorts display across the opening 45minutes with the Belgians Champions the better side and the Hoops could have no complaints about going into the break a goal down.

The Bhoys rallied after the break though and showed once again that they belong at this level as Daizen Maeda grabbed his 3rd Champions League goal of the campaign.

TCE Weekly: Second Half Celtic Go Through The Gears Ahead Of Huge Champions League Challenge

Tue, 26 Nov 2024 09:30:00 -0000

CELTIC weren't at their scintillating best in the opening 45 minutes against Hearts at Tynecastle but the Bhoys raced through the gears in the second half to take all three points and go three clear at the top of the table.

Kyogo grabbed the opener on his 150th appearance for the club and his value to the club since his 2021 signing can't be underestimated

Another wonderstrike by Nicolas Kuhn followed by an Adam Idah double on the night ensures we now head into Wednesday's massive clash with Club Brugge in fine shape.

A win there would see us all but qualified for the Champions League stages with room to spare!

Elsewhere we discuss the Arne Engels question, the potential of "going invincible" once again, as well as a deep dive into the prospects of Celtic's Academy players

Mon, 21 Oct 2024 19:58:00 -0000

Celtic faced their toughest opponents of the Domestic campaign so far as a resilient Aberdeen side battled towards a 2-2 draw at Celtic Park at the weekend.

Celtic Settle For A Point As Aberdeen Show They're The Real Deal

Sun, 20 Oct 2024 21:06:00 -0000

After an exciting matchup at Celtic Park, Celtic had to settle for a share of the spoils after Aberdeen come back from two goals down on Scottish Premiership Matchday 8.

Jimmy Thelin's side showed that they may well be "the real deal" and battled their way back after going in two down at the break.

For Celtic some may feel its two points dropped after taking such a lead, but the reality is that the draw was probably just about the right result on the day, and a result that keeps both sides out in front in the league table.

Celtic Brought Down To Earth In Dortmund | What Needs To Change In Europe?

Wed, 02 Oct 2024 11:58:00 -0000

It was a sobering night in Germany for Brendan Rodgers and his side as Borussia Dortmund dismantled a Celtic team that had gone into Champions League Matchday 2 full of confidence.

Mistakes were punished and an attacking formation was exposed as BVB showed just why they made it to the Champions League Final just 4 months ago.

Now we know how Slovan Bratislava feel, and St Johnstone, and anyone else that Celtic have put to the sword in their opening 9 games of the season.

Is it folly to set up the same way in Europe as we do domestically, and what of the players who failed to perform on the big stage?

We ask the big questions, including what has to change if Celtic are to progress at this level.

🎙️ Join Tino & James for The Final Whistle Show as Celtic took on Borussia Dortmund in Matchday 2 of this season's Champions League.

Sun, 29 Sep 2024 11:27:00 -0000

With each passing game this Celtic side seem to find new levels and on Saturday night it was St Johnstone's turn to see the Champions in full flow!

Five different goalscorers combined to put six past the Saints in Perth as Brendan Rodgers' side put in one of their best displays of an already impressive season.

Incredibly, in six league games so far Kasper Schmeichel has yet to concede a goal, while at the other end his team-mates have now scored 20 of them.

All in all it was a perfect display by the Hoops and one that sets them up nicely for Tuesday's Champions League tie with Borussia Dortmund.

Relentless Under Rodgers As Ten Goal Celtic March On

Mon, 23 Sep 2024 20:25:00 -0000

Despite a valiant attempt by Falkirk - and perhaps less of a challenge by Slovan Bratislava - Celtic fired in an incredible TEN goals this week as their early season form shows no sign of slowing up under Brendan Rodgers.

In our 8 games so far the Hoops have scored no less than 27 times (an average of 3.4 goals per game) and have conceded just 4 as they take on all comers in Scotland and in Europe.

New challenges await on both fronts but for now Rodgers will be delighted at how his side are progressing with Nicholas Khun, Arne Engels, Paulo Bernardo and Adam Idah all in impressive form.

Are we even more exciting to watch just now than we were at the peak of the Ange Postecoglou era?

🎙️ Join Tino, Mif, Paddy & James as they cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Given A Fright By Falkirk But Bhoys Come Good In The End

Sun, 22 Sep 2024 18:12:00 -0000

Celtic took their place in the league Cup Semi-Finals with a 5-2 win over Falkirk but the game was far less straightforward than the scoreline suggests.

With just 20 minutes remaining it was the dark blues who were heading to Hampden, but a rare quadruple substitution from Brendan Rodgers made akll the difference and Celtic's quality came through in the end.

All 5 goals came from our new (ish 😄) signings and the Bhoys can now look forward to a return to the National Stadium where they'll play Aberdeen in the last 4.

Celtic’s Perfect Week: Derby Delight, Champions League Cheer & New Bhoys Buzz

Mon, 02 Sep 2024 18:51:00 -0000

Sunday’s convincing derby win over Rangers was the perfect ending to a perfect week for Celtic as we showed our strength on and off the park, much to the delight of the supporters.

The Champions League Draw on Thursday set the ball rolling before we smashed our record transfer fee on deadline day with the signing of Arne Engels, and it was then over to Brendan Rodgers’ side who done what they do best by once again outclassing a hapless Rangers side.

It allows the Bhoys to now regroup and refocus during the international break after an impressive opening to the campaign and there’s plenty to then get excited about in the weeks and months ahead!

Bernardo & Co Dazzle As Celtic Once Again Dominate On Derby Day

Sun, 01 Sep 2024 16:05:00 -0000

Celtic stamped their authority over the Glasgow Derby once again with a dominant display that showed the growing gulf in class between the two sides.

Paulo Bernardo showed his class after his recent permanent move to the club, as did Callum McGregor, Kyogo, Daizen Maeda and others as the Hoops hit 3 without reply on the day.

We now head into the international break 5 points clear of Rangers as Phillipe Clement continues to point to stats, xG and a variety of other metrics to paint the gap as closer than it really is.

But once again the only stat that matters is the one that reads Celtic 3, Rangers 0, and Brendan Rodgers will be delighted with what he's seeing from his team right now.

🎙️ Join Tino & Mif for the Final Whistle Show as they cover all the action and reaction from Celtic Park on Matchday 4 of this season's Scottish Premiership.

Celtic Looking To Continue The Feel-good Factor On Derby Day v Rangers

Fri, 30 Aug 2024 15:27:00 -0000

It's been a manic week at Celtic Park between the Champions League Draw and the end of the Transfer Window but that's all set to ramp up even more when we take on Rangers this weekend in the first derby of the season.

The Bhoys have been in imporessive form in their opening games, with Sunday representing a chance to go 5 points clear of their Glasgow rivals at this early stage in the campaign.

It remains to be seen whether any of our new Bhoys take part, but either way this is a Celtic side brimming with confidence under Brendan Rodgers and they'll be raring to go by the time the big kick off comes around!

🎙️ Tino, James & Paddy bring you the big match preview ahead of Matchday 4 of this season's Scottish Premiership.

Champions League Draw Reaction | Should Celtic Fans Be Booking Up For Munich? 👀 🏆

Thu, 29 Aug 2024 23:14:00 -0000

Celtic took their place in the draw for this season's brand new Champions League format and most of a green and white persuasion are delighted with how it all played out in Monaco.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Gigi Buffon worked their magic to provide the Bhoys with what looks to be a very favourable draw and one that manager Brendan Rodgers and his players will be delighted with.

It all kicks off next month as Celtic once again go toe to toe with Europe's best in the top club tournament on the planet!

With a host of very winnable ties, is it too soon to be booking up for next year's Munich Final....

🎙️ Tino and Asim were at Celtic Park for the draw and gave their reaction shortly after in this special recording.

Brendan Rodgers Calling The Shots Ahead Of A Whirlwind Week At Celtic Park

Mon, 26 Aug 2024 22:13:00 -0000

Celtic made it 4 wins from 4 with victory over St Mirren but immediately after the game the manager’s thoughts turned quickly to the importance of the final few days that remain of the summer transfer window.

Whilst making it clear he wasn’t happy with how the window has gone to date, Brendan Rodgers expressed his confidence that deals WILL get done, but expressed the need for serious change in how Celtic recruit moving forward.

The clock is rapidly ticking down towards Friday’s deadline, with the small matter of the Champions League group stage draw taking place 24hrs prior.

Throw the first Glasgow Derby of the season into the mix on Sunday and all in all its set to be a lively week at Celtic Park!

Reo Leads The Way As Celtic Blow Away The Buddies

Sun, 25 Aug 2024 14:35:00 -0000

Matt O'Riley has been a star for Celtic, but that particular era is now over and up stepped Reo Hatate in Paisley to show that he can be our main man in midfield in the absence of the popular Dane.

The Japanese playmaker was at the centre of everything good in the 3-0 win over the Buddies, and capped off his man of the match display with a clinical left footed strike to help the Bhoys on their way to victory.

His strike landed either side of goals from Callum McGregor and Canadian Goal Machine Alistair Johnston as Brendan Rodgers' side maintained their 100% start to the league campaign.

It sets us up nicely for a massive game against Rangers next week, but we'll get to that one in due course!

🎙️ In the meantime join Tino, & Joe for the Final Whistle Show as Celtic take all 3 points against St Mirren on Matchday 3 of this season's Scottish Premiership.

Is It Over For O'Riley As Celtic Head To Paisley Targeting Sunday Success | Celtic v St Mirren, Countdown To Kick-Off

Sat, 24 Aug 2024 18:39:00 -0000

Celtic head to St Mirren for Matchday 3 of this season's Scottish Premiership but it looks like they'll be doing so without star midfielder Matt O'Riley who's on the cusp of a move to Brighton.

It'll be a tall order for Brendan Rodgers to replace the Danish International with a similar talent but that's the challenge he faces and we'll see what happens in this last week of the transfer window.

In the meantime the Bhoys have a job to do in Paisley as they look to continue their excellent early season form.

With 3 wins from 3 the manager has the team playing with a bit of style. Lets hope that continues against the Buddies.

Fri, 23 Aug 2024 21:49:00 -0000

Brendan Rodgers has been calm and assured throughout Celtic's summer transfer window but surely now with just 7 days remaining even he mist be getting anxious as the hours tick down.

We have Schmeichel, Sinasolo, Bernardo and Idah all wrapped up - all of which seems to be good moves - but who will be joining them at Celtic Park by the end of next week?

Someone? Anyone? Or is this our lot?

Just as importantly, who from the current crop will remain for the manager to work with as speculation over O'Riley, Kyogo, Reo Hatate and even CCV gathers pace.

It looks like we're set for a frenzied final week of the window!

🎙️ Join Tino and Paddy for this transfer window special as we head towards the last chance saloon!

Mon, 19 Aug 2024 20:21:00 -0000

Nicholas Kuhn has started the new season on fire and with a goal a game across our opening 3 fixtures he's been a revelation in recent weeks.

He's not alone either with fellow forwards James Forrest and Daizen Maeda amongst others also showing some sparkling early season form.

Sun, 18 Aug 2024 18:05:00 -0000

🟢 All the action and reaction from Celtic Park as Celtic make their way into the League Cup Quarter Finals following a comfortable 3-1 win over Hibs.

No Kyogo OR Adam Idah in the starting XI for Celtic today, but why do you need them when you've got Daizen Maeda doing his thing!

The Japanese forward stepped in at striker and played a key part on the day with a first half double before fellow forward Nicholas Khun rounded the coring off after the break.

A good day at the office for Celtic and we'll now take on Falkirk in the Quarter Finals in September as we target a return to Hampden for the semis.

Adam Idah Set To Start As Celtic Face Hibs In League Cup Action

Fri, 16 Aug 2024 15:46:00 -0000

🟢 After finally putting pen to paper on a permanent move this week Adam Idah could be thrown right back into the action in Sunday's League Cup clash with Hibs.

Kyogo suffered a recurrence of his ongoing shoulder injury last week and that could pave the way for the Irishman to show why Brendan Rodgers was so keen to see him return to Celtic Park.

The Hoops exited the tournament at this stage last season after defeat from Kilmarnock - Rodgers only ever domestic cup defeat at Celtic - and will be looking to put that right this time round.

Brendan Rodgers Is Meeting His End Of The Bargain At Celtic – Can Others Say The Same?

Mon, 12 Aug 2024 18:37:00 -0000

Celtic cruised to a second successive win of the Premiership campaign at the weekend and Brendan Rodgers’ has his side playing some impressive stuff in the early weeks of the season.

But whilst he and his players continue to do their bit on the park, it remains to be seen if those behind the scenes can do their bit off it and to provide the necessary re-enforcements to the first team squad.

As always at this time of year signing rumours swirl around cyberspace but the time for real action is fast approaching with now less than 3 weeks of the window remaining.

One man who won’t be making any moves this window is skipper Callum McGregor and we take a look at his decision to step down from international duty in order to fully focus on all things Celtic.

A move that most – including his manager – seem pretty happy with!

Mon, 22 Jul 2024 20:11:00 -0000

Celtic have an incredible opportunity to go big this summer.

We're the current League and Scottish Cup holders. Financially the club has never been better placed. We're guaranteed Champions league football in the season ahead. And we may be on the cusp of recouping £25M+ for star man Matt O'Riley.

There are very few risks in finally pushing the boat out.

But, will the powers that be make the moves that would take us to a new level?

Will they back Brendan Rodgers accordingly and show the same level of ambition that he and the fans desire for the club?

History tells us no. Optimism tells us maybe. But someday soon someone will have to start telling us something, as yet another summer window rumbles on!

🎙️ Join Tino, James & Paddy as they discuss the above and much more in this latest Pre -Season Special.

And If You Know The History... With Jim Orr

Wed, 17 Jul 2024 18:27:00 -0000

After the high of the Centenary Season in 1988, Celtic had been going through a bit of a sticky patch, but a rare victory over their great rivals Rangers in the Cup in 1990 was cause for optimism.

And as the Celtic-daft Devlin family celebrated later that night , there was a knock at the door of their Croy home. It was a very strange man...wearing a bunnet...with a plan!

And this visit kicked off a series of events that would change the history of Celtic, forever.

The next few years were going to be a rollercoaster for every Celtic supporter!

************************************************************************************

Following the successes of 'Bend It Like Brattbakk' & 'Bend It Like Bertie', Jim Orr's latest Celtic play focuses on an unforgettable time in Celtic history as we stared football oblivion in the face during the 1990's.

Jim joined us on The Celtic Exchange to speak about those times as well as about this latest project which will be hitting theatres this October!

Is Celtic's Summer Spending Spree About To Kick Into Life?

Mon, 15 Jul 2024 19:11:00 -0000

🍀 Now that Euro 2024 is over (Viva Espana!) all eyes can now fully turn to Celtic's preparations ahead of the new campaign.

And with that, are we finally about to see a flurry of activity as Brendan Rodger's looks to bolster his first team squad?

The suggestion is that not one, but two goalkeepers are on the way, with the club also nudging closer to permanent deals for Adan Idah and Paolo Bernardo amongst other deals.

Its welcome news after a quiet summer so far and its well timed as the Bhoys get set to head for the States for a 3-game tour out there.

Celtic's Pre-Season Planning + A Season Ticket Saga Concludes!

Mon, 01 Jul 2024 21:00:00 -0000

🍀 Celtic's pre-season plans kicked off in earnest at Lennoxtown last week but - for now at least - no new faces have joined the group.

Brendan Rodgers will be looking to change that in the days and weeks ahead of the title defence and a new assault on the Champions League with fans (us!) already becoming anxious at the lack of activity so far.

Elsewhere we speak to James on the burning question of his Season Ticket Renewal - a topic which caused much debate throughout the second half of last season's campaign!

Pre-Season Special: All Quiet At Celtic Park For Now As Euro Celts Get Set To Return

Mon, 24 Jun 2024 20:01:00 -0000

🍀 For Celtic's quartet of Callum McGregor, Tony Ralston, Greg Taylor & James Forrest the Euro dream is over and they'll now make their way home following Scotland's exit from the tournament.

For the non-international players pre-season begins in earnest this week whilst others will get an extended break, but when can we expect to see new signings join them at Lennoxtown?

It's all quiet on that front for now but undoubtedly it should be a busy summer of coimings and goings as Brendan Rodgers fine tunes his squad for the new campaign.

🎙️ Join Tino, James & Joe as they discuss the latest Celtic news in the first of our Pre -Season Specials.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Euro Celts, Signings Scrutinised & 510 Days In Paradise

Mon, 03 Jun 2024 21:07:00 -0000

🍀 Celtic drew a line under the 2023/24 campaign just over a week ago but as we know Celtic never stops and there's always plenty to cover - even in the close season.

Several of the Bhoys are heading to the Euros with Scotland, but frustratingly Matt O'Riley won't be joining them on the big stage and we look at the ramifications of that from a Celtic point of view.

Elsewhere we assess the impact (or not!) of the seven first team signings made last summer and what future some of those players may yet go on to have at Celtic Park.

Finally we discuss two key figures who played a notable part in Celtic's history some 30 years+ ago - one off the park, and one on it - with both featuring in recent special episodes of the show.

🎙️ Join Tino, Mif & Joe for all that and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic And The Scottish Cup | A Lifetime Of Memories, With Celtic Author & Historian Matt Corr

Thu, 30 May 2024 19:11:00 -0000

Adam Idah’s Hampden winner at the weekend means Celtic have now lifted the Scottish Cup Trophy 42 times in our fabled history – and Matt Corr’s been there for almost half of those!

The Celtic Author & Historian has experiences of being amongst crowds of over 100,000 at the National Stadium in the 70s, right up until our most recent triumph and joins us here on The Celtic Exchange to tell us of his Top 5 (ish!) Scottish Cup memories.

Matt’s no stranger to a trip to Hampden but right now he’s on the eve of a very different type of trip in the name of Celtic, but it’s one that’s equally special in its own way.

Along with a dozen other volunteers Matt and his brother Robert will be travelling to Malawi with Celtic FC Foundation to support the incredible work carried out there by Classrooms For Malawi (CFM) organisation.

It’s one which has been a few years in the making and Matt in his capacity as author, historian and all round knowledge in Celtic is offering something a little different in his efforts to raise funds for this most worthwhile of causes.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Experienced Star Gets Set To Play A Vital Part In Run-In

Mon, 29 Apr 2024 19:31:00 -0000

James Forrest stepped up in a big way against Dundee to show that his star performance at Hampden against Aberdeen last week was no flash in the pan.

The experienced winger is ready to play his part in the run-in and Celtic's No.49 couldn't have timed it any better.

Elsewhere we take a look at some of Celtic' loan Bhoys and the recent change of structure which may see more of them make their way into the First Team picture.

Finally Tino & James share their memories from Estadio Nacional as they reflect on a trip to the hallowed turf on a very special date in Celtic history last week.

Join Tino, Paddy, James & Mif on this very latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly as Celtic chalk up anither vital three points in the title race.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Stage Is Set For Celtic's Season Finale As Forrest & Hart Step Up At Hampden

Mon, 22 Apr 2024 20:51:50 -0000

Celtic have made a habit of 3-3 draws in recent weeks though on this occasion a penalty shootout would follow with man of the moment Joe Hart proving to be the Hoops hero on the day.

It's been some weekend for the nan who turned 37 on Friday and he now knows his long and illustrious career will end with the showpiece finale at Hampden park on Saturday 25th of May.

Another experienced campaigner in the shape of James Forrest also proved his worth against Aberdeen with a vital contribution from the bench, prompting many to suggest that he should play a far more prominent role in the remaining weeks of the campaign.

We now know exactly what lies in store and if Celtic can successfully navigate the five remaining league games as well as the Scottish Cup Final against Rangers then we could be in for a spectacular end to the season.

Join Paddy, Mif & Joe on this very latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly following Celtic's dramatic Scottish Cup Semi-Final win over Aberdeen.

Countdown To Kick Off: Hoops Head To Hampden As Brendan Rodgers Targets More Scottish Cup Success

Fri, 19 Apr 2024 15:52:25 -0000

🍀 Celtic head to Hampden on Saturday where they take on Aberdeen with a place in this season's Scottish Cup Final at stake.

It's been an up and down season for the Dons who find themselves in the bottom six after the split but the prospect of silverware could be a welcome distraction.

Brendan Rodgers however has NEVER lost a Scottish Cup tie in two spells as Celtic Manager and won't be looking to change that any time soon.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Premiership Pendulum Swings Further In Celtic's Favour After Weekend Of Drama in Title Race

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 19:43:00 -0000

A week can be a long time in football.

Rangers had the chance to leapfrog Celtic into top spot with a win in last week's derby at Ibrox, but failure to do so (do "moral victorys" count?) has cost them badly.

Further failure in Dingwall by Phillipe Clement's men has now left the Hoops with a four point lead in the title race as a Reo Hatate inspired performance ensured it was the green side of Glasgow who were celebrating after another weekend of high drama in the title race.

In addition to the impact of the returning Hatate, team-mates Cameron Carter-Vickers, Alistair Johnstone, Kyogo and others have found form at the best possible time as the Bhoys focus in on a potential league and cup double.

Brendan Rodgers too is in buoyant mood, declaring this as the stage of the season when "Celtic come alive!"

And it couldn't come at a better time!

Join Tino, James & Joe on this very latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly following another dramatic week in the Title Race.

Final Whistle: Celtic Fire Three Past Saints To Go Four Clear At The Top

Sat, 13 Apr 2024 19:41:52 -0000

It was vital that Celtic followed up last week's perfomance at Ibrox with a win over St Mirren today and that's exactly what they done with a convincing display against the Paisley side.

Conditions played their part in the first half but the Hoops came out the traps after the break to fire home three goals without reply as they extended their lead at the top of the table.

Brendan Rodgers was in buoyant mood after the game, stressing that this is the phase of the season that Celtic come alive.

There's no better time for the Bhoys to do so!

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Celtic Back In The Driving Seat After Derby Day Draw

Mon, 08 Apr 2024 20:17:27 -0000

On a day of high drama at Ibrox Celtic done what they had to do on the day to ensure that the destiny of this season's title remains firmly in our own hands.

With just six league games now remaining the Bhoys know exactly what's required if a third successive title is to be achieved and will take great confidence from their performance against Rangers, and in particular across the first half.

We cover the fallout from an action packed 90 minutes as well as looking at the overall contributions in green and white of Adam Idah and Paulo Bernardo, as the loanees combined perfectly for our third goal on the day.

Elsewhere the result sees Brendan Rodgers enhance his phenomenal Glasgow Derby record as the manager chases down more silverware to the seven trophies he won here first time around.

Maybe (just maybe) he'll turn Mif and the few remaining doubters round yet!

Final Whistle: Celtic Settle For The Draw On Day Of Drama At Ibrox | Title Destiny In Our Own Hands

Sun, 07 Apr 2024 14:47:48 -0000

Despite holding the lead at various points in the game Celtic had to ultimately settle for a share of the points on a day of high drama at Ibrox.

Six goals and two penalties tell some of the story as Brendan Rodgers' side took the game to their Glasgow rivals before securing their 7th point across this season's three derbies so far.

Yes there's disappointment at not holding out for the win, but ultimately the ball is now firmly in Celtic's court in terms of the title race.

Put simply, win the remaining six fixtures and we retain the title.

Bring it on.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Celtic's Big Hitters Are Back As The Bhoys Eye Up Another Win At Ibrox

Mon, 01 Apr 2024 19:06:47 -0000

After a stop/start season Reo Hatate returned against Livingston at the weekend and the classy midfielder is now eyeing a bigger prize after playing his part in the 3-0 win.

He was supported on the day by stand-in skipper Cameron Carter-Vickers - a man who's had his own injury issues - and both will be vital at Ibrox at the weekend as the Hoops look to stretch their lead at the top of the table.

All indications are that they'll be joined on their trip to the south side by Callum McGregor in what would be a massive triple boost for the Bhoys.

We'll be focusing on that one in more detail in Friday's pre-match show and in the meantime we take a look at some of the key moments at the Tony Macaroni as well as at Celtic's stand-out performers across the campaign so far.

Fri, 29 Mar 2024 17:38:00 -0000

Celtic are back in action this weekend knowing that it's all in our own hands as we look to retain the Scottish Premiership title.

Brendan Rodgers will be watching from the stands as he sees out his one match touchline ban but his side could be boosted by the long awaited return of Reo Hatate.

Its one to look forward to as Celtic target another vital 3 points.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: O'Riley Ready For The Run-In As Celtic Hit The Business End Of The Season

Mon, 25 Mar 2024 20:10:00 -0000

Matt O'Riley has been one of Celtic's star performers this season with his sparkling form even attracting a transfer bid from Spanish giants Atletico Madrid.

Thankfully this was kicked swiftly in to touch and the player now seems fully focused on what's set to be an exciting end to the season for all concerned.

With just 8 games remaining we take a look at what lies in store for Celtic as they target a third successive Scottish Premiership title.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Back On Top, Wide Bhoy Steps Up & Pre Split Predictions

Mon, 18 Mar 2024 20:30:46 -0000

Celtic returned to the top of the table with Saturday's 3-1 win over St Johnstone and will remain there for the next couple of weeks at least with the postponement of Dundee v Rangers.

Kyogo led the way v the Perth side and looks to be rediscovering his form at a crucial stage in the campaign.

He was ably supported on the day by Nicolas Khun who put in another man of the match performance as he showed us just what he's capable.

It's the international break now, but on our return we face three vital fixtures which could have a massive bearing on the destination of the Scottish Premiership trophy.

As Brendan Rodgers says, this is where the fun starts!

Final Whistle: Kyogo Back On Track As He Lifts Celtic To The Top Of The table

Sun, 17 Mar 2024 14:46:47 -0000

Kyogo Furuhashi looked far more like himself at Celtic Park against St Johnstone as he inspired the Bhoys to another vital three points in the title race.

His first half header opened the scoring before an assist for Khun at the start of the second half put Brendan Rodgers' side in control.

The woodwork and a couple of offside calls prevented him from adding to his tally but he'll be pleased with his afternoon's work.

We now head into the international break top of the pile (though having played a game extra) and can now re-set ahead of the run in - hopefully with the return of key players such as Reo Hatate and Callum McGregor.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic With The Opportunity To Go Top If They Can See Off The Saints

Fri, 15 Mar 2024 16:00:00 -0000

Celtic are back to league duty on Saturday and with it comes the chance to go top of the table if they can take all three points against St Johnstone.

The Perth side have already taken a draw at Celtic Park this season and Brendan Rodgers will be out to ensure no repeat of that this time around.

With Callum McGregor and Yang still out it remains to be seen of Cameron Carter-Vickers will be restored to the heart of the defence but one player who'll almost certainly start is last week's hat-trick hero, Daizen Maeda.,

More of the same from the Japanese star will do nicely!

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Maeda Magic, Rodger’s Record & An Evident Lack Of Leadership

Mon, 11 Mar 2024 23:56:42 -0000

Daizen Maeda continues to puzzle and delight in equal measure with the Japanese frontman grabbing his first hat-trick in the Hoops during Sunday’s Scottish Cup victory over Livingston.

He was the man of the moment as Celtic took their place in the semi finals (eventually) where they’ll now face Aberdeen at Hampden Park.

For Brendan Rodgers his perfect Scottish Cup record continues, having now won all 15 games he’s managed in the competition.

Despite the win there was a notable absence in the heart of the Celtic side as both Callum McGregor and Cameron Carter-Vickers missed out through injury.

Whilst other have stepped up on occasion it’s clear just how important those two are in terms of the mindset and leadership they bring to proceedings.

Let’s hope they – along with Yang and Reo Hatate – are back in action sooner rather than later.

Daizen Maeda celebrated 100 appearances in a Celtic shirt by grabbing a hat-trick against Livingston to ensure the Bhoys take their place in the Scottish Cup semi-final.

The 4-2 scoreline perhaps papers over the cracks of a less than convincing performance but in cup football it's all about taking your place in the next round, and that's exactly what Brendan Rodgers side have done.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Rodgers Calls It Out, Recruitment Reshuffle Required & The Battle To Save Celtic

Mon, 04 Mar 2024 21:14:54 -0000

Celtic left Tynecastle on Sunday knowing they could possibly have done more on the day, but also with a niggling feeling that we were ultimately undone by some questionable VAR calls.

Brendan Rodgers didn’t hold back after the game and simply said what we were all thinking in terms of how some of the key decisions were reached. We now await the SFA’s ruling on his comments.

Elsewhere Mark Lawwell has stepped down as Head of Recruitment at Celtic after a difficult time in the role. The finer detail we may never know, but it’s one that hasn’t worked out and the club now have a key role to fill in his absence.

Finally, this week mark’s 30 years to the day since Fergus McCann saved Celtic. We’ve marked the occasion with a special podcast mini-series and we also take some time to reflect on that tumultuous time in this week’s episode.

Final Whistle: Celtic Miss Opportunity To Go Top at Tynecastle | VAR Madness Back on Show

Sun, 03 Mar 2024 17:04:33 -0000

Celtic travelled to Tynecastle today knowing a win would put us back of the Scottish Premiership table.

However, a combination of puzzling VAR decisions, as well as our own failure to respond and adjust cost us all three points on a frustrating day in Edinburgh.

Losing Yang on the 16th minute was the turning point of the game, and Hearts capitalised with a goal from the spot followed by a second from Lawrence Shankland.

In terms of the title race it's as you were before the weekend and Celtic have to know dust themselves off quickly for the next challenge.

Final Whistle: Celtic Dazzle Against Dundee As They Hit The Visitors For 7

Thu, 29 Feb 2024 16:00:57 -0000

Celtic knew just how important it was to follow on from the fightback against Motherwell with something notable against Dundee and that's exactly what they done on an explosive night at Celtic Park.

CCV got the ball rolling after just 7 minutes and the Bhoys never looked back from there as they dismantled the Dens Park side.

The Hoops had seven different scorers on a night where they showed just how good they can be.

A big night overall but special mention to Academy youngster Daniel Kelly who played out the Celtic dream by scoring on his league debut for the club.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Look To Take Motherwell Momentum Into Midweek Showdown With Dundee

Wed, 28 Feb 2024 07:00:00 -0000

Celtic have beaten Dundee 3-0 both home and away this season and most of us of a green and white persuasion would take more of the same on Wednesday night.

The players themselves will have been boosted by Sunday's fightback at Fir Park and should be raring to go at Celtic Park.

The manager has some big calls to make with Adam Idah, Yang, Luis Palma and Cameron Carter-Vickers all coming off the bench to play their part at the weekend.

Regardless the line-up however the three points are the ultimate priority as the Bhoys keep up the pressure at the top of the table.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Idah Inspired Celtic Spring To Life | Could This Be A Season Defining Display?

Mon, 26 Feb 2024 21:14:02 -0000

What a difference one half of football can make.

At around 12.45pm on Sunday Celtic were staring down the barrel of a result that would have seen them drop points for a third game in the last five.

Irish frontman Adam Idah was having none of it though as he and his team-mates produced a second half turnaround that few who watched the first 45mins thought possible.

We’ve witnessed a few false dawns this season so far, but could this finally be the trigger that breathes new life into Brendan Rodgers’ side?

With crucial games this week against Dundee and Hearts we’re about to find out!

Final Whistle: Celtic Leave It Late Against Motherwell | Adam Idah Makes The Difference

Sun, 25 Feb 2024 16:06:14 -0000

Other cliches are available but calling today's win against Motherwell a game of two halves seems to be the right fit for Celtic's latest performance.

Despite freshening things up with 4 changes to the starting XI Brendan Rodgers' side couldn't get going in the opening 45minutes with the home side taking the lead just before the break.

Half-time however saw Adam Idah introduced from the bench and the young Irishman was the difference with two brilliantly taken goals to ensure Celtic took all three points.

Luis Palma put the seal on the win with a late third goal and the Bhoys can now look ahead to Wednesday's clash with Dundee with renewed belief.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic's 12 Cup Finals | First Up, Motherwell at Fir Park

Fri, 23 Feb 2024 19:36:47 -0000

Last time Celtic were at Fir Park it took a whole lot of character as well as a touch of class by Matt O'Riley to ensure the Hoops headed home with all 3 points.

This time around those traits will be needed more than ever as the Bhoys look to get back on track after the disappointment of last week's draw with Kilmarnock.

Brendan Rodgers will be boosted by the return of Cameron Carter-Vickers and Alistair Johnston and both players may well be thrown straight back in to the starting XI.

With 12 games of the league campaign remaining there's very little margin for error and the challenge is now there for Callum McGregor and his team-mates they have what it takes to reclaim the title.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Celtic Need To Reset, Refocus & Resurrect This Title Race

Mon, 19 Feb 2024 20:31:54 -0000

🍀 A failure to beat Kilmarnock for the 3rd time in 4 meetings this season means Celtic are now playing catch-up in the Scottish Premiership for the first time this campaign.

With 12 league games remaining and with things not clicking at present for Brendan Rodgers something clearly needs to change.

Whether that's the system, the players or the management team itself remains very much to be seen - but it's evident that something has to give if we're to have any hopes of retaining the title this season.

Final Whistle: Celtic Fail To Beat Kilmarnock, Again! | "We're Building Our Own Anxiety"

Sun, 18 Feb 2024 13:42:37 -0000

Saturday's draw with Kilmarnock followed a pretty familiar pattern for Celtic.

Start the game reasonably well, get the opening goal, fail to add to it, get nervous, drop points!

It's a pattern that must be addressed immediately if Celtic are to have any hopes of reclaiming the title this season.

For Brendan Rodgers - despite remaining unbeaten in 10 games - its back to the drawing board.

It's as tight as can be at the top of the Scottish Premiership just now as Celtic prepare for another vital league fixture this weekend.

Kilmarnock are the visitors to Celtic Park for Saturday's 3pm kick off and will be buoyed by the fact that they've won twice already against the Hoops this season.

It's a game for leaders and Brendan Rodgers will be looking for his big players to come to the fore as the title race heats up.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Rodgers Bites Back As Bhoys Dig Deep

Mon, 12 Feb 2024 21:32:00 -0000

There’s been a pressure around Celtic and Brendan Rodgers since his return to the club was even first rumoured in the summer and the tension has ramped up notably in recent weeks – despite a 9 game unbeaten run.

The manager has shown he’s up for the challenge however, and in the last week his team stepped up with two big wins which keeps us on course for battling it out in both the league and in the Scottish Cup.

The results mean that the Bhoys have won 8 and drawn 1 of those last 9 games and show that both the manager and his players are ready to dig deep in order to retain their titles.

They may have to do so however without Liel Abada with the young winger being excused at the weekend following a challenging time on and off the park in recent times.

Sadly the situation has reached a point where it now remains to be seen whether he’ll pull on a Celtic shirt again.

Elsewhere we look at just what it’ll take across the remaining 13 games if Celtic are to lift a third successive Scottish premiership title.

Join Tino, James & Mif as they cover another all-important week for Celtic in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Final Whistle: Celtic See Off The Saints With Professional Performance in Paisley

Sun, 11 Feb 2024 17:18:33 -0000

It's all felt a big negative recently but Celtic went some way to lifting that with a solid performance against St Mirren in the Scottish Cup this afternoon.

Goals from Kyogo and Maeda were enough to secure the win and the Hoops now move on to the quarter finals where they'll face Livingston.

A clean sheet from Joe Hart and his backline provided further encouragement and the victory means the Hoops have now won 8 out of the last 9 in all competitions.

It's a short hop over to Paisley for the Bhoys where they'll come up against a side in buoyant mood given how they've performed this season under Stevie Robinson.

The league must be the priority for Brendan Rodgers and his side but the cup represents another important piece of silverware and the Hoops will be going all out to advance to the quarter finals.

Final Whistle: Adam Idah At The Double As Celtic Edge It At Easter Road

Thu, 08 Feb 2024 13:54:00 -0000

The three points were the priority on the night and on that note it was a case of job done for Celtic with the 2-1 win over Hibs.

The result however was very much in the balance as we entered the closing stages and it took a late penalty from new Bhoy Adam Idah - his second of the game - to secure the points.

For Brendan Rodgers it was his first win in five attempts at Easter Road and though he'll be pleased with the victory our performances must improve dramatically if we're to retain the league title.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Chasing Capital Gains On Midweek Trip To Edinburgh

Wed, 07 Feb 2024 10:36:22 -0000

The midweek clash with Hibs at Easter Road presents Brendan Rodgers and his players with an immediate opportunity to right some of the wrongs from Saturday's disappointment at Pittodrie.

The Edinburgh side are facing some challenges of their own and are currently toiling outside the Top 6 under Nick Montgomery.

Celtic will be boosted by the return of Daizen Maeda from international duty whilst new Bhoys Nicolas Khun and Adam Idah will be relishing another opportunity to show what they can do in the Hoops.

With things tight at the top there's little margin for error as the Champions look to maintain their place in top spot.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Lack Of Bravery Is Costing Celtic On The Pitch And In The Boardroom

Mon, 05 Feb 2024 21:14:43 -0000

Celtic performed woefully in the January Transfer window and followed it up with an equally disappointing display at the weekend as they dropped two vital Scottish Premiership points at Pittodrie.

All in all its been a bad week for the club, but will we see a response?

The pressure’s now firmly on Brendan Rodgers to do his bit on the park, and for Michael Nicholson to do his bit behind the scenes if the club are to restore faith from an increasingly disgruntled fanbase.

Finding ourselves in such a position in early February – having secured a world record 8th treble just 8 months ago – is quite something.

Do the current custodians have the answers to the many questions that are currently being asked? And if so, when will we see action?

Join Tino, James & Paddy as they cover another big week on and off the park in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Final Whistle: Celtic Drop Points At Pittodrie As Uncertainty Continues On And Off The Park

Sat, 03 Feb 2024 16:47:28 -0000

Given the week we've had it was almost inevitable that Celtic would add further frustration at Pittodrie this afternoon.

The tension off the park seems to have made its way to Brendan Rodgers and his players who were unable to do enough against managerless Dons on the day.

It brings to a halt a six game winning run, and despite a first goal for Nicolas Kuhn and a decent showing from Adam Idah up top the Hoops didn't bring enough to secure the win.

The team now need to re-group quickly with another tricky away fixture on the cards against Hibs in midweek.

Making Sense Of Celtic's January Transfer Window | With Anthony Joseph, Sky Sports News

Fri, 02 Feb 2024 15:50:00 -0000

They say you should exit every transfer window in a stronger position than you began.

So did we?

The vast majority of Celtic supporters would say no, with just Nicolas Kuhn and Adam Idah (on loan) to show for our efforts in terms of new arrivals.

Some fringe players have made exits, and yes we've retained matt O'Riley and Cameron carter-Vickers (for now!) but could you really call this window any sort of success?

Countdown To Kick Off: Managerless Aberdeen Await As Our Disastrous Transfer Window Ends

Thu, 01 Feb 2024 21:37:00 -0000

Amongst all the noise surrounding Celtic's bemusing January transfer window it'd be easy to forget we face another crucial league fixture in under 48 hours.

Managerless Aberdeen provide the opposition in Saturday's lunchtime kick off at Pittodrie with Celtic looking to make it 7 wins in a row.

Frustratingly, Brendan Rodgers' line-up will have a similar look and feel to it as he faces up to the fact that the quality additions he so desired in the window just haven't been delivered by the board.

We now know who'll be here until the end of the season (and who won't be!) and so lets hope that we have enough in the tank to get over the line, starting with three points in the North East!

Celtic Exchange Weekly: If Nothing Changes, Then Nothing Changes | Celtic At Mid-Season Crossroads

Mon, 29 Jan 2024 22:22:00 -0000

Celtic have now extended their winning run to 6 games.

So what’s the problem?

In light of what’s looking increasingly like another failed transfer window tensions are rising off the park as fans grow ever more frustrated with the club.

Brendan Rodgers himself may well be questioning his own return to Glasgow with many of the same poor practices that led to his initial exit seemingly alive and kicking.

Unless we see something dramatic in these final days of the January window then we may well be seeing further changes behind the scenes by the seasons end.

Whether that be the manager himself, or one of Peter or Mark Lawwell remains to be seen.

Final Whistle: Celtic Make It 6 In a Row With Win Over Ross County But Questions Remain

Sat, 27 Jan 2024 20:38:00 -0000

Celtic remain 5 points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership after today's 1-0 win over Ross County but the performance from Brendan Rodgers' men left a lot to be desired at times.

The Hoops got off to the perfect start with a deflected Alistair Johnston strike in the very first minute but that would be the end of the scoring on the day - much to the surprise of most in attendance.

Luis Palma had a chance to extend the lead from the spot, but the Honduran winger missed TWO attempts to do so, which epitomised a frustrating day.

A look at the bigger picture always provides perspective but Rodgers himself will concede that this Celtic side could - and should - perform so much better.

An interesting final week of the transfer window now awaits.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Back In League Action Against Struggling Staggies

Fri, 26 Jan 2024 15:27:21 -0000

Celtic are back in league action for the first time in almost 4 weeks as Ross County make the trip to Celtic Park.

The Highland side have been struggling for form following the return of Derek Adams as manager, failing to win any of their last 5 games.

For Celtic the priority is maintaining the gap at the top of the table, and they'll be boosted in their hopes of doing so by the presence of new Bhoy Nicolas Khun.

Another important fixture awaits as the Hoops target a 6th straight win in all competitions!

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Brendan Plays The PR Game As Bhoys Breeze Back Into Action

Mon, 22 Jan 2024 21:13:00 -0000

Say what you want about Brendan Rodgers but the man knows how to play the media game and turned on the charm offensive once more following Celtic’s win over Buckie Thistle.

The manager has had his critics since his return – and some will remain – but Rodgers continues to perform where it matters most, by winning games of football.

With 5 wins from 5 we can look ahead with confidence to the second half of the campaign, and with around a week left of the transfer window we may yet see some new recruits.

Elsewhere we take a look at the performance of Celtic’s Youth Academy as Daniel Kelly became the latest graduate to make his debut.

But what’s the pathway for these young footballers, and are they being given enough opportunities to impress?

Join Tino, Mif, James & Joe as they cover all of the above and much more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Preparing For A Weekend On The Buckie

Fri, 19 Jan 2024 20:51:43 -0000

Come Sunday's 4pm kick off at Celtic Park it'll have been almost 3 weeks without competitive Celtic action, and that's more than enough for all of us.

The Bhoys play host to Highland League side Buckie Thistle in what should be an intriguing game in the Fourth Round of the Scottish Cup.

The Highlanders come into this one on the back of 10 consecutive wins since mid-September and won't need any motivation ahead of one of the biggest games in their history.

For Brendan Rodgers' side its a chance to pick up where they left off after 4 wins from 4 ahead of the winter break.

With Buckie reported to be bringing over 3,000 travelling fans it's set to be an enjoyable afternoon of action.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Celtic Welcome Nico On The Wing | Are Others On The Way?

Mon, 15 Jan 2024 21:46:00 -0000

Nicolas Kuhn will become Celtic’s first signing of the January transfer window as he arrives in a £2.8 deal from Rapid Vienna.

But will the German winger be joined shortly by other reinforcements as Brendan Rodgers looks to boost his squad for the second half of the season?

Dozens of names are doing the rounds as the Hoops look to bolster their options at left back and centre forward but will any deals be done between now and the end of the month?

Elsewhere we’ve seen some players head in the other direction as Rodgers looks to trim his squad down to a more workable number with further exits expected.

And finally on the back of the winter break the Bhoys are back in Scottish Cup action this week as we welcome Buckie Thistle to Celtic Park.

Let’s hope we can get the second half of the season off to a flier.

Final Whistle: Bernardo And The Bhoys Cruise Into The Winter Break As Celtic Take Care Of St Mirren

Tue, 02 Jan 2024 21:43:00 -0000

Celtic made it 4 wins from 4 with a convincing 3-0 victory in Paisley and now head into the winter break 8 points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership table.

Hot on the heels of his goalscoring performance in the Glasgow Derby Paulo Bernardo was at it again, providing two assists and taking home the man of the match award for his night's work.

Not far behind was Matt O'Riley - making his 100th appearance for Celtic - who added another goal and an assist to his tally.

Daizen Maeda and Greg Taylor were the other goalscorers in a convincing display all round for the Hoops who can now relax and regroup before returning to Scottish Cup action on the 21st of the month.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Aiming To Get The New Year Off To A Flier Against The Saints

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 21:04:11 -0000

Whilst most of us will still be on a high after Saturday's massive win against Rangers, Brendan Rodgers and his players still have one last hurdle left to negotiate before they can head off for the winter break.

The Hoops face St Mirren in Paisley on Matchday 22 and it's vital that they fellow up the weekend win with a similar result and performance against Stevie Robinson's men.

Goalscorers Kyogo Furuhashi and Paulo Bernardo will be looking to pick up where they left off, whereas others such as summer signing Maik Nawrocki and Liel Abada may be given the opportunity for more game time following the derby win.

Celtic start 2024 with an eight point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table and will be going all out to maintain the gap as they take on the Buddies in the first game of the new year.

Final Whistle: Talk Is Cheap | Celtic Step Up When It Matters Most With Dominant Derby Win

Sun, 31 Dec 2023 18:37:54 -0000

As is often the case there was a lot of noise from the other side of the city in the build up to the last derby of the year.

And as has so often been the case Celtic once again done their talking on the park by commanding the game and by taking all three points.

Paulo Bernardo and Kyogo grabbed the all-important goals on the day but so many players in green and white stood up to be counted as Brendan Rodgers' side exerted their authority over their Glasgow rivals.

The result leaves the Hoops eight points clear ahead of our final festive fixture against St Mirren (Tuesday) and the Bhoys will be going all out to maintain that lead before we then head into the winter break.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Time For Brendan Rodgers & Celtic To Step Up | Celtic v Rangers, Big Match Preview

Thu, 28 Dec 2023 19:00:00 -0000

It's been a mixed season so far as Brendan Rodgers adjusts to life back in the Celtic hot-seat.

However, there's no better time for the manager and his players to step up to the big occasion than in Saturday's crucial clash with Rangers.

They'll play out the final game of the calendar year in front of a full house at Celtic Park who'll be roaring the Bhoys on in their aim to extend their league lead to 8 points.

Availability doubts remain over the likes of Cameron Carter-Vickers, Reo Hatate and Liel Abada but whatever line-up Rodgers' goes with he'll have the team fully prepped for the all-important clash.

In 14 fixtures against Rangers he's lost just once and will be looking to strengthen that record further following Saturday's lunchtime kick-off.

Final Whistle: Mikey Johnston Seals The Deal As Celtic Dominate Dundee At Dens

Tue, 26 Dec 2023 19:13:00 -0000

It was as dominant as display as you'll see all season but Celtic had to wait before eventually overseeing Dundee at Dens Park this afternoon.

Going in goal-less at half-time can always lead to some nerves but the Bhoys stuck to their task with Paulo Bernardo and Mikey Johnston stepping up with the all important second half goals.

It was a telling contribution from Johnston in particular, a player who knows he's playing for his Celtic future, and his late double could be a pivotal moment for the Irish international.

The win now means Celtic have scored five without reply in their last two fixtures and can now look ahead with confidence to Saturday's crucial Glasgow Derby.

Saturday’s 2-0 win over Livingston was a step in the right direction following recent defeats and Brendan Rodgers will be hoping for more of the same from the Bhoys against Tony Docherty’s side.

Kyogo was back amongst the goals v Livi and will be looking to kick on again after a rare dry spell for the Japanese frontman.

Previewing Celtic's January Transfer Window | With Anthony Joseph - Sky Sports News

Sun, 24 Dec 2023 10:00:00 -0000

The January Transfer Window opens in little over a week and for Celtic it could be one of the most important windows in recent years.

The reward for lifting the Scottish Premiership title this season is automatic qualification for the new (and substantially more lucrative) Champions League, and it's a must that Celtic take their place at European Football's top table in the 2024/25 season.

This window allows Brendan Rodgers a chance to bring in the quality that we so desperately need and top of his shopping list must be a left back and a striker - and hopefully a few more besides.

Almost as important will be the exits as the manager looks to trim down his 32-man squad to a more workable number.

Will we see some of our summer recruits departing earlier than planned? Will Rodgers be backed with the quality needed to take his side to the next level?

We're about to find out!

Tino was joined by Anthony Joseph of Sky Sports News to speculate on who stays, who goes, and who comes in as Celtic look to kick on in the second half of this all important season.

Tune in now to this Christmas Eve bonus as we get set for a another tense few weeks of transfer talk at Celtic Park!

Final Whistle: Celtic Win, Kyogo Scores, Green Brigade Back At Celtic Park! Happy Christmas!

Sat, 23 Dec 2023 19:49:05 -0000

Following two league losses on the bounce nothing other than a win against Livingston would do today - and that's exactly what then Bhoys delivered.

A combination of Livingston's approach and the blustery conditions ensured it was never going to be a game packed with free flowing football but ultimately Celtic done what they had to do to secure the win.

Kyogo and Liam Scales were the goalscorers on the day, both coming from Luis Palma assists, and Brendan Rodgers' men must now take it into the Boxing Day clash with Dundee where another vital three points are up for grabs.

In the meantime join Tino & James on the latest episode of The Final Whistle Show as Celtic got back to winning ways against Livingston.

Countdown To Kick-Off: The Green Brigade Are Back For Celtic v Livingston | Brendan And The Bhoys To Get Back To Winning Ways

Fri, 22 Dec 2023 16:13:00 -0000

It's been a long drawn out affair but tomorrow will see the return of the Green Brigade at Celtic Park and it should give the players a timely boost just when they need it most.

It's been a difficult couple of weeks domestically with league defeats to Hearts and Kilmarnock but Celtic's destiny is very much in their own hands and no better place to get back on track than a packed Celtic Park.

Tomorrow is the first of four crucial fixtures between now and the winter break and nothing but a confidence boosting win will do for Celtic ahead of a huge week in the context of the season.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Calmac's Concern, More Squad Mysteries and Celtic's Midfield Lucky Dip

Mon, 18 Dec 2023 22:25:00 -0000

League defeats are like busses!

Hot on the heels of our first Scottish Premiership defeat of the season at Rugby Park, Celtic followed up with an even worse display as they fell 2-0 to Hearts at Celtic Park.

It’s a game which featured just one of our summer signings (Luis Palma) but not the likes of Gustaf Lagerbielke and Mitchell Frame following the midweek win over Feyenoord.

Fret not though, Kwon made the bench!

With Tomoki Iwata missing out through injury David Turnbull won this week’s midfield tombola, but all will be in the draw once again when next week’s game with Livi comes around.

Post match Captain Callum McGregor expressed his own concerns regarding the squad as he too called for suitable reinforcements to be drafted in during the January window.

Whether we all get our wishes there or not is a different story.

Final Whistle: Jekyll And Hyde Celtic Are At It Again As Hearts Break Home Record

Sat, 16 Dec 2023 20:47:52 -0000

The worst domestic performance we've seen from Celtic since the last one!

If you thought last week's second half showing against Kilmarnock made for bad viewing then the full 90 minutes against Hearts most certainly won't be for you.

There's something far wrong at Celtic just now, on and off the pitch, and solutions need to be found quickly if we're to retain our Scottish Premiership title.

Talented and experienced a coach as Brendan Rodgers may be he's NOT currently getting a tune from this squad of players and it's now starting to cost us.

Today's 2-0 defeat by Hearts was the latest poor performance this season and it's a worrying trend that must be addressed.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Look To Follow Up Euro Win With Three Points Against Hearts

Fri, 15 Dec 2023 14:06:45 -0000

Will the win against Feyenoord provide the catalyst that kick-starts Celtic's season?

Brendan Rodgers will certainly be hoping so as he and his players get set for four tricky fixtures between now and the turn of the year.

The first of those is Hearts who visit Celtic Park tomorrow on the back of defeats by Aberdeen and Rangers.

Despite this we know how difficult an opponent the Edinburgh side can be and Celtic will need to be on it from the first whistle to ensure we take all three points.

Final Whistle: Lagerbielke Takes Revenge For Rotterdam On Big Night For The Bhoys

Wed, 13 Dec 2023 23:37:41 -0000

Ask the Celtic players and fans if tonight meant nothing.

Representing Celtic is never meaningless and Brendan Rodgers, his team and the Celtic support got their rewards against Feyenoord with a last gasp winner giving us the Champions League win that's evaded us for so long.

It was an entertaining game on the night with Celtic undoubtedly riding their luck at times, though we also seen some big performances from the likes of Joe Hart, Liam Scales and Callum McGregor.

Now that our European adventures are over for another season the Bhoys must now use this result and performance to galvanise us for the league challenges that we face - starting with a big one against Hearts on Saturday.

Meantime however, enjoy this extended Final Whistle Show with Tino, James & Brydo as Celtic turned over the Dutch champions.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Champions League Reaction Required As Hoops Look To Get Back On Track Against Feyenoord

Tue, 12 Dec 2023 12:11:00 -0000

On paper there's little to play for tomorrow night against Feyenoord, but the Celtic players owe it to the fans as well as to themselves to put in a positive performance against the Dutch champions.

Sunday's defeat by Kilmarnock fell woefully below the required standards and Brendan Rodgers' must get a response from his men in order to restore confidence ahead of some vital fixtures.

He may be tempted to rotate his starting XI in certain areas but at some time very soon we need to see a consistency in his team selection.

Inconsistent line-ups have led to inconsistent results and we need to resolve that sooner rather than later.

Celtic Exchange Weekly: Another Crash At Killie, Collective Failings & The Kyogo Question

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 21:15:00 -0000

Celtic fell to their first league defeat of the season at the weekend though it's a result that many feel has been coming.

Like St Johnstone just 7 days prior the Hoops managed to turn in yet another Jekyll & Hyde type performance having ended the half a goal to the good, only to undo all their good work in spectacular style in the second 45.

It was a day to forget for Liverpool loanee Nat Phillips though he wasn’t alone in falling short of the required levels on the day.

The manager, the players and most certainly the recruitment team all find themselves in the firing line for this one with solutions now required as a matter of urgency.

One of the most puzzling issues is the form of current player of the year Kyogo Furuhashi who seems miles away from his brilliant best.

Finding a way to resolve that and returning the talismanic striker to form would go a long way to solving some of the manager’s problems – though maybe not all of them…

Final Whistle: Hoops Hammer Hibs As New Look Line-up Responds To Rodgers

Thu, 07 Dec 2023 12:54:00 -0000

Things have felt a bit flat at Celtic in recent weeks but the Bhoys blew all that away on Wednesday night with a complete and controlled performance against Nick Montgomery's Hibs.

Brendan Rodgers rang the changes with both Tomoki Iwata and Mikey Johnston stepping in for rare starts and both played their part as the new look starting XI roared into an early lead against the Edinburgh side with Oh getting credit for the opener.

Further goals from Matt O'Riley, Luis Palma and Oh's second made sure of the points with a late consolation goal as good as it got for Hibs.

It maintains the gap at the top of the table and the Hoops can now look forward to Sunday's lunchtime clash with Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Play Host To Hibs As Fixture Frenzy Continues

Tue, 05 Dec 2023 10:00:00 -0000

Celtic have had little time to recover from Sunday's Jekyll & Hyde performance in Perth with Hibs now up next on the agenda on Wednesday night.

It's a relentless run as always at this time of year which sees us in the midst of a crucial period of league fixtures between now and the new year.

Brendan Rodgers - fresh from his half time rant against St Johnstone - now has some calls to make in terms of his starting XI with Mikey Johnston and Tomoki Iwata but vying for valuable minutes after impressive cameo appearances at the weekend.

Team selection aside, three points are the priority as the Hoops look to maintain the gap at the top of the table.

TCE Weekly: Brendan’s Fury, Mikey’s Magic & A Message To First Team Fringe Players

Mon, 04 Dec 2023 22:00:00 -0000

It’s not often we see Brendan Rodgers get too high with the highs, or too low with the lows.

But the manager couldn’t hide his fury at half-time on Sunday at McDiarmid Park after his players put in a display that fell way below the high standards that have been set.

There’s no doubt it had the desired effect as the Hoops scored three without reply in the second half against St Johnstone – but should it have been required in the first place?

One player who made a notable impact on the day was forgotten man Mikey Johnston who gave a timely reminder of what he can offer with a game changing performance.

Can he finally now show the talent he undoubtedly has on a consistent basis?

That’s the challenge Brendan Rodgers has set for him and some of his team-mates as the manager looks to cull his 32-man squad in the weeks ahead.

Who stays, and who goes as he looks to assert his authority on the team?

“It’s Worth Every Single Second” | The Real Impact Of Celtic FC Foundation

Thu, 16 Nov 2023 17:55:00 -0000

Since the formation of Celtic back on the 6th November 1887, charity has never been far from the heart of the club.

Over 135 years later, most Celtic supporters will be aware of the ongoing charity work carried out in the club’s name by Celtic FC Foundation but less will be familiar with the Celtic FC Foundation Supporters Committee – a group who work hand in hand with the Foundation in supporting their various fundraising ventures.

In this episode we hear from Stephanie Drew and Matt Corr, two members of the committee who both have strong reasons for doing what they do.

In particular you’ll hear Stephanie’s story of the invaluable support that the Foundation has given to her family and to her young son Sean, and it’s clear to hear the passion and pride she and Matt take from being involved.

We also discuss their latest annual event – taking place on Saturday 23rd March 2024 – including details on this year’s theme and what attendees can expect on the night.

It’s set to be a very special night with all proceeds going to a number of very worthy causes so please take some time to check it out and support the event if at all possible.

Included here are some important links to items discussed in this episode:

TCE Weekly: New Euro Approach Required, Promise From Project Signings & More VAR Madness

Mon, 13 Nov 2023 21:40:00 -0000

Two 6-0 scorelines in a week – one good, one not so good – perhaps tell us all we need to know about the different challenges Celtic face domestically and in Europe.

So why do we continue to take the same approach year on year?

With the Champions League format set to be revolutionised next season the need for us to up our game on the continent is now more pressing than ever if we’re to remain relevant in that domain.

Elsewhere we saw more reasons for optimism about our recent signings at the weekend as wingers Yang and Luis Palma stole the show against Aberdeen.

Not to be outdone, January signing Oh also joined the party with an impressive double against the Dons.

The 6-0 win was only marred by a horrendous challenge on Kyogo that only resulted in a yellow card. If this is the level under VAR then we’re maybe in more trouble than we thought!

Tino, James, Paddy & Asim cover the above and much more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Final Whistle: Rebound Bhoys Hit Dons For Six at Celtic Park

Sun, 12 Nov 2023 19:38:07 -0000

Celtic recorded their second 6-0 scoreline in less than a week though today’s was a lot more welcome than the last one!

Luis Palma and Yang were the main men on the day as the wingers gave Aberdeen’s defence a torrid time throughout as the Hoops ran riot.

A late flurry of goals put some gloss on the scoreline but in truth it was a deserving result as the Bhoys responded well to their midweek disappointment.

The one big downside to the day was the head knock that Kyogo received early in the second half. How an off field ref plus VAR cannot see a red card for the incident is beyond belief and we’ll await the explanations on that one.

Tino & James were at Celtic Park this afternoon to bring you all the action from Celtic v Aberdeen.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celtic Looking To Shake Off Euro Hangover Against The Dons

Sat, 11 Nov 2023 22:32:15 -0000

The heavy defeat to Atletico will be fresh in the memory as Celtic take to the park on Sunday afternoon against Aberdeen, but it’s a game that presents a perfect opportunity to get back to winning ways.

The Dons will be feeling good about themselves after recent results but for Brendan Rodgers men it’s another chance to exert their domestic dominance.

They’ll have to do so without Daizen Maeda who joins the injury list, but as was the case with Reo Hatate this simply provides another squad member with a chance to step up to the plate and show what they’ve got to offer.

It’s an important afternoon for the Hoops before we then enter the latest international break.

Final Whistle: Questions To Answer As Celtic Crash To Heavy Defeat In Madrid

Wed, 08 Nov 2023 15:15:25 -0000

At 11 v 11 Celtic knew they'd be in for a challenging night in Madrid.

However, once Daizen Maeda saw red, the task became almost impossible.

The loss of six goals is a humbling experience for any group of players and Brendan Rodgers - who'll be experiencing his own frustrations - must now pick his squad back up for another important league game this weekend.

Looking at the bigger picture this felt like the night where our lack of summer investment finally came back to bite us and the board themselves have some questions to answer in terms of what the overall ambition for the club is at this moment in time.

Tino & James were in Madrid for this one and to bring you all the key talking points in this latest episode of The Final Whistle Show.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Hoops Hoping To Keep The Euro Dream Alive In Madrid

Mon, 06 Nov 2023 16:17:47 -0000

Celtic take on Atletico Madrid on Matchday 4 of this season’s Champions League and it’s a massive fixture for Brendan Rodgers and his players as they take on the Spanish giants.

A positive result will be required if we’re to have realistic ambitions of European football after Christmas but the Bhoys proved just two weeks ago at Celtic Park that they’re more than capable of competing with Diego Simeone’s side.

Key players Matt O’Riley, Kyogo, Daizen Maeda and Luis Palma were all rested from the starting XI at the weekend and along with their team-mates will be raring to go for this one.

The Celtic Exchange team are in Madrid for the big game with Tino & James bringing you all you need to know in the big countdown to kick-off.

Final Whistle: Celtic Take Care Of Ten Men County To Go Eight Clear At The Top

Sat, 04 Nov 2023 19:48:00 -0000

An early sending off left Ross County with a mountain to climb against the Champions and though they were made to wait for them Celtic eventually got the goals to take all three points in the Highlands.

In a game littered with VAR incidents David Turnbull, Luis Palma and James Forrest got the all-important goals, and Forrest has now scored in fifteen straight seasons for the Hoops – a phenomenal record.

The manager took the opportunity to rest a number of key players for this one and can now look ahead with confidence to a challenge of a different kind as we head to Madrid to face Atletico on Tuesday.

Tino and James bring you all the key talking points from the Highlands in the latest Final Whistle Show.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Hoops In The Highlands To Face Struggling Ross County

Fri, 03 Nov 2023 14:43:54 -0000

Celtic took on Ross County on the opening day of the season, and whilst the Hoops have been top of the pile ever since after a 4-2 win on Flag Day, County have struggled at the opposite end of the table.

That said, Dingwall is never an easy place to go, especially for a lunchtime kick off, and Brendan Rodgers men will need to be fully focused if they’re to take all three points back to Glasgow.

Malky McKay’s men will be desperate to take something from the game which could make for a difficult afternoon in the Highlands.

Final Whistle: Celtic See Off Stubborn Saints To Stay Five Clear At The Top

Thu, 02 Nov 2023 10:00:00 -0000

The stage was set for it to be a night of absences at Celtic Park with no Cameron Carter-Vickers, no Reo Hatate and no Green Brigade after their latest ban.

And whilst Brendan Rodgers side were far from their free flowing best on the night they done what was required to take the three points against a well drilled St Mirren side.

Oh was the hero on the night as the South Korean striker stepped up to smash home his first goal of the season after great work from Kyogo and Odin Thiago Holm.

The win keeps the Hoops five clear at the top of the table with attention now turning quickly to a Saturday lunchtime kick-off against Ross County.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Celts Have Saints In Their Sights

Tue, 31 Oct 2023 17:34:25 -0000

The good thing about football is that there’s always another game around the corner when you’re looking to right some wrongs.

That’s where Celtic find themselves following Saturday’s disappointing draw with Hibs as St Mirren come calling at Celtic Park this midweek.

The Paisley side have had a strong start to the campaign themselves and currently occupy third spot in the Scottish Premiership table. However they’ll find themselves up against a motivated Celtic who are looking to make amends after dropping points for just the second time this season at the weekend.

TCE Weekly: Has Celtic’s Summer Signing Strategy Let Brendan Rodgers Down?

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 22:08:03 -0000

Celtic dropped league points for just the second time this season as a stubborn Hibs side held on for a 0-0 draw at Easter Road.

The game came just days after a draw of a different kind, as the Hoops held La Liga side Atletico Madrid to a very credible Champions League stalemate in midweek.

But, had Brendan Rodgers been backed better in the summer – particularly in the striking department – would we be looking at a couple of very different results?

So far the manger has performed admirably with the players available to him, but is there a concern over quality when it comes to his backup players?

We take an in-depth look at Celtic’s summer recruitment and on what impact (or not!) the various new Bhoys have had across the season so far.

Tino, Mif & James cover this key topic and much more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Final Whistle: Easter Road Stalemate Highlights Squad Concerns For Rodgers

Sun, 29 Oct 2023 12:27:24 -0000

In the bigger picture we can all make our peace with eight wins and two draws from Celtic’s opening ten league fixtures. Results which see us comfortably out on top in the Scottish Premiership table.

However the stalemate at Easter Road was frustrating, not just for the result, but as much for the options – or lack of - that Brendan Rodgers had at his disposal when he turned to his substitutes bench.

The players he’s utilised across the season so far have performed admirably to this stage, but in terms of depth do Celtic have some notable issues at this time?

Fri, 27 Oct 2023 15:13:50 -0000

Celtic return to Edinburgh for the second weekend in a row with Hibs the opponents this time in Saturday’s 3pm kick off.

If the Bhoys can replicate the performance that we witnessed against Hearts at Tynecastle then surely another three points will follow for Brendan Rodgers’ men.

Taking on a side battling at the top of La Liga was never going to be an easy task but Celtic stepped up on the big occasion with an impressive performance against Atletico Madrid on Matchday 3.

The Hoops knew that a point was the minimum requirement to keep our European hopes alive and goals from Kyogo and Luis Palma ensure we got exactly that as Brendan Rodgers side showed all their qualities over a pulsating 90 minutes.

TCE Weekly: Top Drawer At Tynecastle, Tomoki Time & The Right To Protest

Mon, 23 Oct 2023 21:10:00 -0000

Celtic flew into an early lead at Tynecastle thanks to man of the moment Matt O’Riley and in truth never looked back from that moment on as they restored their seven point gap at the top of the table.

The Bhoys are working through the gears under Brendan Rodgers and we’ll see just how far we’ve come when Atletico Madrid come calling in this week’s Champions League.

One man who provided a timely reminder of what he can offer is Japanese powerhouse Tomoki Iwata who smashed home his first goal for the Hoops.

The midfielder has been working away in the background and may well play a part against the Spaniards in midweek.

Elsewhere the club and the Green Brigade remain at loggerheads following recent statements regarding the ongoing conflict in the Middle East/ We discuss the fans' right to protest should they decide to do so on Wednesday night and beyond.

Can Palma Replace Jota, Surprising Scales & Celts And The City

Mon, 09 Oct 2023 20:21:00 -0000

Luis Palma made it back to back league goals for Celtic at the weekend as the Honduran international continues to show what he can do in the Hoops.

Whether or not he can eventually replace Jota is a bigger question but so far so good from the young winger.

Similarly Liam Scales continues to impress all – including his manager – but can the Irishman go on to reach new levels under Brendan Rodgers’ guidance?

Elsewhere we debate Celtic’s ongoing relationship with the City Football Group and whether or not it may go on to be something more formal in the future – and how that would be received if so.

Sat, 07 Oct 2023 17:21:32 -0000

Celtic put in a controlled and confident performance at Celtic Park this afternoon to further extend their lead at the top of the table to seven points – at least for the time being.

Reo Hatate has been a man of much debate this season so far but he stepped up today to show why he’s still one of our best players with a Man Of The Match Performance.

His goal was sublime, and the nutmeg that preceded it was even better!

Luis Palma gave more of an insight into what he’ll bring to a Celtic shirt with his second goal in a week before Greg Taylor – a man also rediscovering his form – rounded off the scoring.

Majic, Stan & The King of Japan - Gordon Strachan's Incredible 2005/06 Season at Celtic

Thu, 05 Oct 2023 15:52:09 -0000

What makes a successful Celtic Manager?

Winning the Scottish League Title? Dominating our Glasgow rivals? Success in Europe? Last minute winners?

Gordon Strachan done it all and more during his time at Celtic and now – almost 20 years after he took his place in the Celtic Park hot-seat - renowned Celtic Author Matt Corr has charted the incredible maiden season of the man who was given the unenviable task of replacing the legendary Martin O’Neill.

As a club Celtic were still coming to terms with the loss of the great Henrik Larsson just 12 months prior and now the man who had dragged Celtic into the modern era was also departing.

Into the bargain the club were now downsizing financially and the big money moves that brought key figures like Sutton, Hartson, Lennon would also become a thing of the past.

That Strachan then went on to be quite as successful as he was at Celtic Park is all the more admirable.

But it certainly wasn’t plain sailing. Far from it.

Majic, Stan & The King of Japan is the story of that rollercoaster 2005/06 season under Gordon Strachan and it’s Bratislava, Broadwood and everything in between.

Matt joined Tino in The Celtic Exchange studio to pick up the story and to take us through a chapter that – until now – has been one of the lesser charted eras of modern day Celtic.

Majic, Stan & The King Of Japan will be launched at a very special event at Celtic Park on Thursday 19th of October.

Guests on the night include John Hartson and Stephen McManus who starred in that team as well as other guests to be announced.

Final Whistle: Heartache For Hoops As Lazio Leave It Late

Wed, 04 Oct 2023 22:27:58 -0000

Just when it looked like Celtic may go on to claim a winner they were dealt with the cruellest of blows as Pedro's late header dropped in to Joe Hart's net.

Following a brave and controlled performance Brendan Rodgers and his players deserved so much more but as we know all too well there's no margin for error at this level.

Kyogo opened his Champions League account with a goal worthy of the tournament but Celtic couldn't find the all important second goal that would have sealed the points - despite Luis Palma's best efforts.

Despite the disappointment there were a number of positives for the manager and players to take, but they must now dust themselves off quickly ahead of the fixtures that remain in Group E.

Countdown To Kick-Off: Huge Night In Store As Celtic Go Toe To Toe With Lazio

Tue, 03 Oct 2023 21:25:21 -0000

Celtic head in to a huge game on Matchday 2 of this season’s Champions League knowing that a win on the night would give a massive boost to our aspirations of European football beyond Christmas.

Maurizio Sarri’s Lazio provide the opposition and despite a poor start to their domestic campaign they'll be buoyed by a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid on Matchday 1.

Celtic Park will be absolutely bouncing by the time the 8pm kick off comes around however and with players like Matt O’Riley at the top of his game, and with Kyogo a constant threat it could be a pivotal night for Brendan Rodgers side.

The Late Late Show, New Deals For Reo & O’Riley & A Look At Lazio

Mon, 02 Oct 2023 20:45:00 -0000

Fresh from signing a new extended deal at the club, Matt O’Riley ghosted in at the back post on Saturday and with a 97th minute volley ensured that Celtic would be taking a fourth away win from four in this season’s Scottish Premiership.

His team-mate Reo Hatate had also put pen to paper on new terms just 24h prior to mark a great few days for the club on and off the park.

Meanwhile things have started to unravel on the other side of the city, whilst Brendan Rodgers side seem to be going from strength to strength – at least domestically.

The challenge now it to echo that form on the European stage and a win on Wednesday against Lazio in Matchday 2 of this season Champions League would be the perfect time to do so.

Final Whistle: Happy Matt O’Riley Day – The Late Late Show At Fir Park

Sun, 01 Oct 2023 14:38:00 -0000

On a day where Celtic look destined for a draw, top Bhoy Matt O’Riley stepped up in the dying seconds to ensure all three points would be making their way back to Celtic Park.

Summer signing Luis Palma thought he had scored the winner himself just minutes earlier, before Blair Spittal drew the Steelmen level on the 95th minute.

This Celtic side refuse to lie down however and on the day when his new deal was confirmed by the club O’Riley smashed home his fifth of the season to show just why he’s so important to Brendan Rodgers’ side.

The win ensures the Hoops remain in pole position at the top of the table and can now look ahead to Wednesday’s Champions League clash full of the confidence that such a late win brings.

Fri, 29 Sep 2023 12:34:46 -0000

Celtic head to 4th placed Motherwell in buoyant mood following last week’s 3-0 win against Livingston but know they face another tough test this weekend from Stuart Kettlewell’s men.

The Fir Park side have had a decent start to the season and will be hoping to take something from a game on home turf against the Champions on Matchday 7 of this season’s Scottish premiership.

With Joe hart suspended and with Nat Phillips back in contention Brendan Rodgers has some tough calls to make defensively as the Bhoys look to maintain their unbeaten league record.

And will that huge game against Lazio in midweek come into the manager’s thinking when picking his side for this one?

We’ll find out very soon as the Hoops get set for Saturday’s lunchtime kick off.

Rodgers Renaissance, The Marvel of Maeda & A Reward For O’Riley

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

The win over Livingston felt like a significant result for Brendan Rodgers, both in terms of scoreline and performance, as he continues to win over any remaining doubters in his second spell as manager.

He was helped in that quest at the weekend by an opportune PR moment following the final whistle, but it’s fair to say he’s sitting in a good place with supporters after big away wins at Pittodrie, Ibrox and now Livingston.

Elsewhere we were once again bamboozled by the enigmatic Daizen Maeda as he turned in what’s now viewed as a typical mind-blowing performance.

It’s hard to assess a player who misses from 3 yards and then scores from 20 but that’s where we find ourselves with our Japanese Bhoy.

Meanwhile his fellow goalscorer Matt O’Riley continues to shine and looks set to be rewarded with a full cap for the Danish national team.

Talks continue on an extended contract for the classy midfielder who’s fast become Celtic’s main man this season.

A full house of Tino, Mif, James & Paddy were in situ to cover all of the above and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly*.

Final Whistle: Key Moments Prove Costly As Celtic Slip Up At De Kuip

Tue, 19 Sep 2023 22:07:09 -0000

Approaching half-time at De Kuip it looked like Celtic had done enough to enter the break level pegging, but a momentary lapse in concentration gave the Dutch Champions all the incentive the needed to take an all important lead on Matchday 1.

Having put so match into the opening exchanges Brendan Rodgers side were then staring down the barrel in the second half and ultimately it was more poor decision making in key moments that ensured we left Rotterdam with nothing to show for our efforts.

In a hostile atmosphere it was a game of high drama with new Bhoys Gustaf Lagerbielke and Odin Thiago Holm both seeing red on the nigh and Rodgers' new look side now need to regroup very quickly if we're to take something from Group E.

Celtic simply won't get away with such naivety on the big stage and whilst there are positives to take from elements of the game, lessons need to be learned fast at this level.

Tino & James took to the mics immediately on the Final Whistle to bring you all the big talking points from a tough night in Rotterdam.

The Kyogo Question, Euro Targets & Dundee Debuts

Tue, 19 Sep 2023 05:57:00 -0000

Kyogo’s fine early season form continued at the weekend as the Japanese hitman added yet another goal and an assist to his every growing Celtic tally on Matchday 5.

He’s now hit the net 58 times in 89 games since his arrival at Celtic Park in July 2021 and the obvious questions are now being asked of the fans favourite as we get set to embark on another European campaign.

Already a firm fans favourite, can he now add goals at Champions League level as his Celtic story enters its next chapter?

Elsewhere we look at some debuts in green & white with no less than 3 of our new signings making their first appearances in Saturday’s win over Dundee.

And finally we look at what would be deemed an acceptable showing in Europe as Brendan Rodgers leads his new look side back into the competition this week.

Back To Business: Squad Games, The Manager’s Message & Champions League Chances

Tue, 12 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

International week has seen a stark contrast in spirits on either side of the Glasgow divide, as Celtic embraced the opportunity to pause, reset and regroup following that vital win at Ibrox.

Crucially it’s also given some of our new signings a chance to settle in to their new surroundings before another crucial run of games and they look to nudge their way into Brendan Rodgers’ side.

Three new midfielders have joined in the form of Odin Thiago Holm, Kwon and Paulo Bernardo and the manager now has some big calls to make in that area of the park.

We saw signs at Ibrox that his methods were getting through to the players and with the squad now boosted by the new signings there’s plenty reasons for optimism ahead of the next phase of the campaign.

Elsewhere we provide a focus on Feyenoord as the Bhoys get set for a return to the top table of European football – but can Brendan do what Ange couldn't and make it out of the group?

The Sound of Silence: Kyogo Class Stuns Ibrox & Kickstarts The New Rodgers Revolution

Tue, 05 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0000

It’s been a mixed start to life under Brendan Rodgers second time around but that all changed with one swing of Kyogo’s right boot in Sunday’s Glasgow Derby.

The Japanese star proved his worth once again to give his side all 3 points in what could turn out to be a vital moment in the managers return to the club.

The win sends the Bhoys into the international break in high spirits and now allows us to regroup after a hectic start to the campaign.

With the summer transfer window now firmly closed Rodgers knows the players he’ll be working with until January at least, and can now plan accordingly for the next phase of the season.

Elsewhere our Champions League campaign will see us line up against some big hitters as we look to make an impact at the top table of European football.

Questions For Calmac, Social Media Sulking and An Alternative Option For Ibrox

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Now in his third season as Celtic Captain, Callum McGregor is facing the biggest challenge of his leadership as he and his team-mates navigate a tricky start to the campaign.

The skipper has more than enough credit in the bank for what he’s achieved at the club but by his own high standards he knows he’s fallen short in recent weeks and will be driven to put that right as soon as possible.

Elsewhere Sead Haksabanovic is in the huff due to a lack of gametime and opted to share his frustrations on social media. Time may already be up for the Montenegran international however and we wait to see if he’s still a Celtic player by the weekend.

Looking ahead we face a tough trip to Ibrox on Sunday, but could Brendan Rodgers have an option under his nose that he – any most others – won’t yet have considered?

Rapid Response Required After Cup KO | Are We Seeing "Full Brendan?"

Tue, 22 Aug 2023 05:50:00 -0000

Losing just the third competitive game of the season is never enjoyable, but conceding one of last season’s Treble Trophies into the bargain makes for a particularly bruising weekend.

It can be hard to take positives from such an encounter but one such blessing could be the early wake up call that will have been heard loud and clear to Brendan Rodgers, his players, and the Celtic board.

All parties must respond strongly to the defeat.

And quickly.

Injuries or not Rodgers must find a way to get his available players ticking, whilst the players themselves need to shake off the cobwebs of a sluggish start to the season.

As for the board, they now have just ten days to fully back the manager and show that their ambitions match his as well as those of the wider fanbase.

Tino, Paddy and Sinky were on the mics in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Crash Out At Killie | No Fight, No Spark

Mon, 21 Aug 2023 09:02:00 -0000

Brendan Rodgers hadn't lost a single match in domestic cup competition as Celtic manager before this afternoon's clash with Kilmarnock.

He has now. And he and his side can have no complaints.

Injuries to key players Alistair Johnston, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Reo Hatate can explain part of the problem but that aside Celtic lacked a spark and a desire and barely troubled the Kilmarnock goal all afternoon.

We knew we'd face a robust challenge and on the day the players failed to meet that challenge.

The work Celtic now do in the remaining days of the transfer window could define our season.

Tino & Paddy were on the mics following a disappointing day in Ayrshire.

Room For Improvement, The Case For The Defence & Transfer Window Worries

Tue, 15 Aug 2023 05:55:00 -0000

It’s unusual to come away from Pittodrie with a 3-1 win, with three points in the bag, and with our 100% start to the league campaign intact – and STILL find plenty room for improvement!

But that’s where we find ourselves this week.

That said it’s not hypercritical to suggest that Celtic can and will improve under Brendan Rodgers despite the win in the North East, as they get up to speed with the returning manager’s methods.

A minor knock to Cameron Carter-Vickers highlighted our lack of defensive re-enforcements and though Stephen Welsh performed admirably in his absence it would seem there’s still work to be done there ahead of another crack at the Champions League.

With a little over two weeks left of the transfer window we also discuss if know is the very time to panic, or if we can hold off on our panicking until at least next week!

Back In The Old Routine: Kyogo The Creator, Two Goal Turnbull & So Long Starfelt

Tue, 08 Aug 2023 05:55:00 -0000

Celtic are finally back in competitive action, and finished the opening weekend of the season exactly where we finished at the end of last season – at the very top of the Scottish Premiership table!

The win against Ross County wasn’t perhaps as routine as the scoreline suggests but there were plenty of positive takeaways from Matchday 1.

A Man of the Match display from two goal David Turnbull, some Kyogo magic in and out of the penalty box, and a rare right footed strike from Matt O’Riley.

We also witnessed what looks like a farewell appearance from Swedish stopper Carl Starfelt and he’ll go with everyone’s best wishes following two very successful seasons at the club.

With 3 weeks of the transfer window remaining there’s now some additional work to be done and it remains to be seen what Brendan Rodgers will prioritise between now and September 1st.

Kwon Yersel: New Bhoy Shines, Flag Day Beckons & Tributes To A One Club Man

Tue, 01 Aug 2023 05:50:00 -0000

Celtic played out their penultimate pre-season friendly in Dublin at the weekend and there was plenty for Brendan Rodgers to be pleased about after an entertaining 1-1 draw with Premier League Wolves.

The debut from new Bhoy Kwon Hyeokkyu was one of the biggest highlights though with the South Korean looking like he could be a real find in the heart of the midfield.

Elsewhere we're now counting the days until we open our Scottish Premiership campaign against Ross County at Celtic Park.

We should be ready for the Highlanders, but are we ready yet for the challenges we'll face beyond that?

And finally, this week also sees one club man James Forrest rewarded with a testimonial against Atletico Bilbao on Tuesday night. With over 450 appearances and 22 major honours in the Hoops it's a night he absolutely deserves and it should be a special night for him and his family.

Nawrocki & Roll! Summer Signings Heat Up, But Is A New Striker Next On The List?

Tue, 25 Jul 2023 05:55:00 -0000

Hot on the heels of confirming South Koreans Yang Hyun-Jun & Kwon Hyeok-Kyu Celtic have added Polish defender Maik Nawrocki to the mix as our summer signing spree gathers pace.

The 22 year old centre half becomes our fifth addition of the window and will likely go straight into a side still feeling the absence of Cameron Carter-Vickers in defence.

Elsewhere it seems that 34-goal Kyogo Furuhashi continues to have issues with a shoulder injury, and though Daizen Maeda has stepped up in Japan, are we light in the centre forward department as the Scottish Premiership kick off approaches?

Rodgers Sizes Up His Squad, South Koreans Set To Sign & A Returning Celtic Hero?

Tue, 18 Jul 2023 05:55:00 -0000

Celtic said sayonara to their Portuguese training camp this week as they jetted in to Japan for the next stage of pre-season preparation.

Brendan Rodgers’ side will play two games there this week, giving the manager a further opportunity to assess his squad ahead of the new season.

Whilst we all eagerly await news of new arrivals, its vital that substantial cuts are also made to the squad with almost 40 players currently making up the first team pool.

South Korean youngsters Yang Hyun-Jun & Kwon Hyeok-Kyu should be confirmed as our latest arrivals any day now and will immediately join their new colleagues in Japan.

Elsewhere Rodgers refuses to rule out a move for former star Kieran Tierney. Could a short term return to Celtic Park be on the cards?

A Show of Commitment From The Captain | Calmac Aiming To Create a Legacy Under Rodgers

Tue, 11 Jul 2023 05:55:00 -0000

Celtic skipper Callum McGregor has displayed his incredible commitment to the club by penning a new deal that will keep him at Celtic Park until the summer of 2028.

Described by Brendan Rodgers as the “heartbeat” of the team and his “coach on the field” the 30 year old has played a huge part in Celtic’s domestic dominance during his time at Celtic Park and following last season’s treble success has now claimed 20 major honours.

And he’s showing no signs of letting up any time soon!

Elsewhere team-mates Kyogo Furuhashi and Daizen Maeda showed their own intent to be part of the Rodgers Revolution by agreeing new 4-year deals of their own.

Whilst we’re all keen to see new arrivals over the summer it’s great business by the club and lays the foundations for what’s to follow in Rodgers’ second spell as manager.

Tino was joined by James & Paddy for this one as Celtic’s pre-season preparation continues.

Tue, 04 Jul 2023 05:55:00 -0000

Brendan Rodgers and his players returned to Lennoxtown today (Mon 3rd July) as preparation for the 2023/24 season officially got underway.

It’s set to be a busy summer with two new arrivals already confirmed in the shape of Odin Thiago Holm & Marco Tilio, whilst Portuguese star Jota looks set for a money spinning move to Saudi Arabia.

Anthony Joseph of Sky Sports News: The Inside Track on Jota, Celtic’s Summer Signings & Rodgers’ Return

Fri, 30 Jun 2023 15:19:51 -0000

Anthony Joseph from the Sky Sports News Desk joined us this morning and he couldn’t have timed it any better with Celtic’s summer transfer window going into overdrive over the last 24 hours.

The big breaking news is that our Portuguese superstar Jota looks set to make a money spinning move to the Saudi Arabian Pro League in a transfer that could 10X his current salary, with Anthony providing the inside story on that one.

The first two signings of the Brendan Rodgers era (Part Two!) have also been confirmed with Australian youngster Marco Tilio today joining Norwegian Odin Thiago Holm at Celtic Park.

Speaking of Rodgers, we also get Anthony’s take on how his surprising return all came to be, and on the reassurances he’s received from Michael Nicholson and co. about the direction that the club is heading in.

As always with Anthony it’s a fascinating look at what takes place behind the headlines and one we think you’ll enjoy as our summer transfer window heats up!

The Return of Brendan Rodgers: The Reaction

Tue, 20 Jun 2023 17:55:33 -0000

In a sensational turnaround Brendan Rodgers once again finds himself as manager of Celtic Football Club.

It’s not something the vast majority of fans ever expected to happen following his departure in February 2019 but football’s a funny game at times, and here we are!

Paddy, James and Mif got on the mics today (Tuesday) to give their initial response to the appointment and to debate some of the big questions many fans will be asking.

He was undoubtedly the standout candidate, but should we all just forgive and forget? What assurances will he have sought from the Celtic board? And what will constitute success in his second spell in the Celtic Park hot-seat?

It’s an intriguing appointment and one which has sent fans into overdrive as the debate rages on over his return.

It’s going to be a very interesting summer!

Season Finale: Alternative End of Season Awards | Manager Search Nearing Conclusion

Mon, 12 Jun 2023 21:35:54 -0000

In our final episode of the season (don’t worry, we’ll be back again in a short couple of weeks) we draw a line under Ange Postecoglou’s exit from the club whilst the search for his replacement gathers pace.

If rumours are to be believed an ex-manager is set for a sensational return to Celtic Park but a variety of candidates continue to be linked – some familiar, some not so much.

With Champions League football to look forward to, a talented first team squad and a healthy summer transfer budget to play with it’s an enviable role for whoever lands the role.

On a far less serious note we also take the opportunity to dish out our “Alternative End of Season Awards” following yet another trophy laden season for the club.

Analysing Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic Departure: A New Era Dawns

Mon, 05 Jun 2023 20:41:16 -0000

In this episode, we delve into the seismic shift that occurred in the wake of this weekend’s Treble success as Ange Postecoglou looks set to bid farewell to Celtic Football Club.

Join us as we unpack the departure of the influential manager and explore the implications for both Postecoglou's legacy and the future of the club.

With his arrival at Celtic, Postecoglou brought a fresh perspective and an ambitious vision. We examine the impact of his tenure, from his commitment to attacking football to his knack for nurturing talent. His influence on Celtic's style and overall culture during his tenure cannot be overlooked.

Plus we examine the decisions that now await Michael Nicholson and his board as the search begins for a new manager. Who will step into the void left by Postecoglou? We discuss potential candidates and speculate on the qualities and strategies that Celtic may prioritise in their pursuit of a new leader.

The Final Countdown | Ange Won’t Let Exit Chat Derail Cup Final Dream

Tue, 30 May 2023 05:50:00 -0000

The opportunity to set world records doesn’t come around very often, but this is exactly where Celtic now find themselves after another stunning season.

Ange Postecoglou’s side are now within 90 minutes of an incredible 8th domestic Treble and the manager won’t allow anyone or anything to detract from that goal.

Speculation around the Australian’s own future continues and we may well hear more on that one way or another after the season finale.

But for now it’s all eyes on Hampden as Callum McGregor and co. chase down a clean sweep for what would be the 5th time in 7 years!

Renewed Focus From The Bhoys As Another Trophy Day Awaits

Tue, 23 May 2023 05:55:00 -0000

"When the Heavyweight Champion of the World lifts the belt, he doesn't have to have won every round"

The words of Ange Postecoglou as he explains the minor drop off in form from his side following the title sealing win at Tynecastle a couple of weeks back.

That said he'll be keen for the Bhoys to come out swinging this week against both Hibs and Aberdeen as we conclude our league campaign and finally get our hands on the Scottish Premiership Trophy.

There'll be a right time for his players to focus on next month's Scottish Cup Final, but it's not just yet and they'll now be looking to end the league campaign on a high following the recent blips.

Celtic Dominate At End of Season Awards + Ange Learns Lessons In Defeat

Tue, 16 May 2023 05:45:00 -0000

Celtic justifiably swept the boards at the annual end of season awards this weekend, with Kyogo, Jota, Matt O’Riley and Ange Postecoglou all receiving individual awards for their efforts across the campaign.

With the league and league cup safely in the bag, and with an unprecedented 8th domestic treble still to play for, it was the only logical outcome.

Such is the collective spirit amongst the squad however that each of the winners would trade the individual awards in a heartbeat if it guaranteed treble success at Hampden next month.

Ange will have much to think about between now and then following the result at Ibrox, but he’ll undoubtedly have learned a lot about some of his players following the rare defeat, and he’ll be sure to put that knowledge to practice as his ongoing evolution of the squad continues.

Ange Postecoglou’s Unstoppable Drive: How He’s Inspiring Celtic To New Heights

Tue, 09 May 2023 05:30:00 -0000

Following Celtic’s title winning performance at Tynecastle, we explore the dynamic between Ange Postecoglou and Celtic, and how they’re a perfect fit for each other.

His passion, drive, and tactical approach align him perfectly with the club and in a rare display of emotion after the final whistle he spoke of how much managing the Bhoys means to him.

Off the pitch there’s a clear emotional connection for the Australian, and as he continues to tally up the trophy wins the bond between him and the fans grows ever stronger.

If he manages to add one more trophy in the shape of the Scottish Cup in next month’s final then he’ll be granted a place alongside a very exclusive band of Celtic Managers to have secured a domestic treble.

A fitting place for a man who’s revolutionised our club in his short time in Paradise.

CCV’s Outstanding Sacrifice As Celtic Take A Massive Step Closer To History

Tue, 02 May 2023 05:30:00 -0000

Knowing full well that he wouldn’t be taking his place in this season’s Scottish Cup Final regardless the outcome of Sunday’s Semi-Final, Cameron Carter-Vickers made the decision to literally put his body on the line in order to put his team-mates on the verge of history.

The ultimate team player!

The US international has been an absolute rock at the heart of Celtic’s defence since his arrival in late summer 2021 and showed why he’s just so vital to Ange Postecoglou’s side with a colossal display against Rangers at Hampden Park.

He’ll now miss the remainder of the season as he undergoes surgery but does so as an undoubted hero of the 2022/23 campaign.

A campaign that could now see Celtic lift a World Record 8th Domestic Treble!

Scottish Cup Semi Final - Big Match Reaction | Celtic v Rangers | Sun 30th April 2023

Sun, 30 Apr 2023 18:02:49 -0000

Some teams talk the talk, some walk the walk, and once again Ange Postecoglou’s side done the latter as they booked their place in this season’s Scottish Cup Final with a 1-0 win over Rangers.

The Hoops were boosted by the return of Reo Hatate and Jota to the starting line-up and it was a goal by the Portuguese winger that ultimately separated the sides on the day.

Huge credit goes to the Celtic defence too and especially to Man of the Match Cameron Carter-Vickers as they stood up resolutely to everything Rangers could throw at them across the second half at Hampden Park.

Once again it was a game that Rangers had to win. And once again they failed to do so.

Celtic now return to the National Stadium on Saturday 3rd of June as Ange Postecoglou players look to take a place in history by winning a World Record 8th Domestic Treble.

Tino & Mif were on the mics shortly after the final whistle to cover all the big talking points on another big day for the Bhoys.

Scottish Cup Semi Final Special - Big Match Preview | Celtic v Rangers | Sun 30th April 2023

Fri, 28 Apr 2023 19:31:33 -0000

Celtic head into Sunday's Scottish Cup Semi Final clash with Rangers knowing that a win could put them on the brink of making history!

Should Ange Postecoglou's men go on to lift the Scottish Cup in June it would mean a World Record 8th Domestic Treble for Celtic, which would be yet another incredible achievement for our proud club.

None of this will currently be occupying Ange's thoughts of course and we know by now that he and the players will continue to focus on "one game at a time" which has been the case since the Australian's arrival at Celtic Park.

We received a huge boost on Friday with the news that Reo Hatate, Jota and Liel Abada are all available for this one, and with all three holding impressive records against Rangers in recent times their presence could prove vital at Hampden once again.

It's a massive occasion, one for us all to look forward to and Tino, James & Brydo were on the mics this afternoon (Friday) to bring you all the big news, views and opinions ahead of the big kick off. --------------------------------- This is a sample of our regular Match Preview Podcasts brought to you by The Celtic Exchange Plus.

The Remarkable Pattern That Points Towards A Hoops Win At Hampden

Tue, 25 Apr 2023 05:40:00 -0000

Celtic rarely draw domestically these days, let alone lose – but on the rare occasions that they do fall short, they always respond accordingly.

In a pattern stretching all the way back to Matchday 1 of last season, Ange Postecoglou’s side have shown an incredible knack of shaking off domestic disappointments at the first time of asking.

It’s a trait that’s seen them lift the Scottish Premiership under Ange at the first time of asking, one which will see them retain it in the coming weeks, and one which puts them firmly on track to emerge victorious from this week’s Scottish Cup Semi Final at Hampden.

A Sign Of Things To Come From Ange | Two Wins From The Title

Tue, 18 Apr 2023 05:40:00 -0000

Ange took the chance to mix things up at Rugby Park on Sunday and for the very first time we witnessed Yuki Kobayashi, Tomoki Iwata and Sead Haksabanovic all in the same starting XI.

It’d be foolish to think that was the sole reason for the Bhoys roaring into a four goal lead after just 27 minutes, but what we do know is that Ange has been looking for an opportunity to further embed these players into his system.

Having only joined the club this season, many are suggesting that they (amongst others) will form a key part of Ange’s future plans as he targets a a second crack at the Champions League in 2023/24.

We discuss the impact the trio have had at Celtic so far, and where we potentially need further recruitments if we’re to put up a better fight of it in European football’s premier tournament next season.

Celtic Find A Way To Win, Rangers Find Excuses | A Title Winning Result

Tue, 11 Apr 2023 05:40:00 -0000

Even though Celtic weren’t at their brilliant best in Saturday’s 3-2 win over Rangers, a familiar pattern played out before, during and after the game.

Before it we endured the usual bravado from the south side of the city – from club officials as well as fans - telling us we were ‘there for the taking’ and that Rangers had ‘closed the gap’ on Celtic.

During the game – as this side tend to always do under Ange Postecoglou, especially when it matters most – Celtic found a way to win! It’s now 6 games and counting since Celtic lost to Rangers in the league.

And after the game? Take your pick.

If it wasn’t Michael Beale, it was captain James Tavernier and team-mate Todd Cantwell reverting to what has become a very familiar excuse culture in the aftermath of another Glasgow Derby defeat.

The footballing equivalent of “a big boy did it and ran away!”

For Celtic, a second successive Scottish league title is now just 3 games away.

Match Reaction: Celtic v Rangers | Scottish Premiership | Sat 8th April 2023

Sat, 08 Apr 2023 16:41:10 -0000

Good sides always find a way to win and that’s exactly what Ange Postecoglou’s side done this afternoon at Celtic Park.

This team are capable of playing far better than they did today but some days the result is more important than the performance (don’t let Ange hear you say that though) and the win now takes Celtic 12 points clear with just 7 games to play.

This league title race is over!

Kyogo stepped up once again with a double on the day to take his tally against Rangers to 5, and his record for the season now stands at 28 goals.

Jota grabbed the third with some sharp reactions to extend Celtic’s winning streak to 16 games.

We’re also now 30 games unbeaten domestically and have lost just once in 64 league games.

Celtic deserve all the plaudits coming their way but this season’s not over by a long stretch with records still to be broken, and silverware still to be won!

Special Extended Match Preview: Celtic v Rangers | Scottish Premiership | Sat 8th April 2023

Fri, 07 Apr 2023 17:54:09 -0000

We're now just hours away from the big kick off, and a game that could all but see Celtic clinch a second successive Scottish Premiership Title.

Ange Postecoglou's men are firmly in the driving seat with a 9 point lead at the top of the table, and a win at Celtic Park in Saturday's lunchtime kick off would surely remove any remaining doubts on who the title winners will be.

Celtic will go into this one without Reo Hatate and Liel Abada - players who have both enjoyed success in this fixture in the past - but will be boosted by the return of key man Arron Mooy and Greg Taylor.

It's all set to be a big afternoon in Paradise and Tino, James & Paddy were on the mics to bring you up to speed with all the big match news and views ahead of the game!

Derby Day Decisions: 3 Massive Calls For Ange As Fringe Players Step Up

Tue, 04 Apr 2023 06:00:00 -0000

Following victory in Dingwall, Celtic now head into a massive fixture this weekend on the back of 15 straight wins across all competitions.

A win at Celtic Park on Saturday would strike a hammer blow to any slim hopes Rangers have of getting back into the title race – and would also put down an important psychological marker ahead of the upcoming Scottish Cup Semi-Final.

Injury forced Ange’s hand in the Highlands, with fringe players such as Iwata, Bernabei, Haksabanovic, Turnbull and Oh all providing a timely reminder of what they can offer at this crucial stage in the season.

The manager will now have some huge calls to make as he looks to propel the team into an unassailable 12 point lead in the quest for back to back League Titles.

The 5 Games That Have Shaped Celtic’s Season

Tue, 28 Mar 2023 05:45:00 -0000

As we bid farewell to the latest round of international fixtures Celtic now move firmly towards the ‘business end’ of the domestic season, and with it the chance of claiming a World Record 8th Treble!

Ange Postecoglou and his player’s won’t dare mention “the T word” in any of their press conferences, but a series of impressive performances across the season to date have now put them within touching distance of what would be an incredible achievement.

Many supporters will pick out different games as the ones they feel have been most important in putting the side in such a position, and likewise we’ve now identified here the 5 which we feel have been most pivotal in putting Ange and his players on the edge of history.

Some you’ll agree with, some you might not, but what can’t be argued is that Celtic are now in a position to do something very special over the next couple of months. We could shortly be adding more big results to add to that list of 5!

International Bhoys: Concern Over Call-Ups – Looking At The Bigger Picture

Tue, 21 Mar 2023 07:00:00 -0000

Reo Hatate and Kyogo Furuhashi are two of Celtic’s star performers this season yet both found themselves on the outside looking in once again as Japan’s squad was named for their latest round of international fixtures.

This follows their omission at last year’s World Cup, so should Celtic as a club be concerned that two of our most important players have once again been overlooked by their country?

And will players and their agents be equally as concerned?

Many fans are more than happy for players not to travel with their national teams as it keeps them fresh for club duty – especially as we reach the business end of the season – but surely every player has ambitions to represent their country?

So will this cause any current players to consider their Celtic futures, or act as a deterrent to any targets that Mark Lawwell and his scouting team have identified?

Starfelt’s Stunning Stats – But Does He keep His Place In This Celtic Team ?

Tue, 14 Mar 2023 07:00:00 -0000

Since his £4.3M arrival from Rubin Kazan, Carl Starfelt has been a rock at the heart of the Celtic defence.

His stats speak for themselves, and incredibly Celtic have NEVER lost a Scottish Premiership game when he’s he and Cameron Carter-Vickers have started together.

Of the 64 domestic games he’s played here in Scotland, the Swede has been on the losing side just twice over 90 minutes.

However - January signing Yuki Kobayashi is now breathing down his neck, and with an injury hit Starfelt making way for his Japanese team-mate at half-time in Saturday’s win over Hearts, is the door now open for Kobayashi to stake his claim for a run in the team?

Ange stated post-match that Kobayashi will be a “strong contributor” between now and the end of the season – but will that come at the expense of the ever present Starfelt?

Trusting In Ange - The Manager Knows What He’s Doing | A Crucial Week Ahead

Tue, 07 Mar 2023 13:53:44 -0000

If we’ve learned anything in the season and a half or so that Ange Postecoglou has been manager of Celtic, it’s that this is a man who knows exactly what he’s doing.

He’s won titles all across the globe, has managed at a World Cup and at time of writing has lifted 3 out of 4 possible trophies during his time in Scotland.

Celtic found themselves in the rare position of being behind at the break against St Mirren at the weekend, but yet again Ange Postecoglou’s side found a way to win.

They generally always do these days.

Ange Postecoglou is a ‘Once in a Lifetime’ Celtic manager, and continues to impress with each passing week at Celtic.

There’s no one we’d rather have calling the shots as we chase down with the treble dream in what is another huge week ahead for his side.

Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic Are A Relentless Winning Machine And Won’t Stop At The League Cup

Tue, 28 Feb 2023 07:00:00 -0000

Celtic lifted their third trophy under Ange Postecoglou at the weekend and skipper Callum McGregor and his team mates won’t be breaking that habit anytime soon.

In the season and a half or so that Ange has been at the helm he’s transformed a disjointed squad of players into a ruthless and relentless winning machine in what’s been an incredible turnaround.

Two goal Kyogo will make the headlines for another cup winning performance, but it’s clear that what we’re seeing now from Celtic is a collective effort and we’re all part of the journey - players, coaches, staff and fans.

The League Cup is the first trophy in what could yet be a sensational season for the Bhoys!

Scottish League Cup Final Special | Celtic v Rangers | Post Match Reaction Show

Sun, 26 Feb 2023 23:42:35 -0000

Kyogo Furuhashi was the man at Hampden once again with his double enough to ensure that Callum McGregor would be lifting the League Cup as Celtic Captain for the second successive season.

There had been a lot of talk in the build up to this one, but ultimately talk is cheap in football and it’s all about what you do on the park.

On that note Ange Postecoglou’s men stepped up when it mattered most and showed just why Celtic are the number one team in the country.

Kyogo will make all the headlines but this one was a real team effort with the defence playing just as important a part as our forward players over the 90 minutes.

Though Ange won’t say it out loud the win very much keeps the treble dream alive and we can now look forward with continuing confidence in what the rest of the season will bring.

Tino & Mif were on the mics to bring you all the action from another brilliant day at Hampden for Celtic.

Scottish League Cup Final Special | Celtic v Rangers | Big Match Preview

Fri, 24 Feb 2023 19:50:14 -0000

The anticipation is building as we get ever closer to Cup Final Day and to Sunday’s big kick off at Hampden Park.

Celtic are in exceptional form ahead of this one and Ange Postecoglou’s men are playing with the kind of confidence you’d expect of a team on a 23 game unbeaten run.

Kyogo was the cup hero last time out as Celtic lifted the trophy on a dramatic day against Hibs last season and the Japanese striker finds himself in top goalscoring form once again.

He’s not the only one hitting top gear though and team mates Cameron Carter-Vickers, Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate amongst others will all be keen to make an impact on the big occasion.

Will More Of Us Soon Be Standing Up For Celtic?

Tue, 21 Feb 2023 07:00:00 -0000

Celtic Park is renowned for having one of the most incredible atmospheres in world football.

But are we about to ramp that up even further?

A radical new proposal by supporters’ groups The Green Brigade & The Bhoys has been launched online suggesting that Celtic Park could be about to increase its ‘safe standing’ areas dramatically.

Such areas are hugely popular amongst fans in Italy’s Serie A, as well as at Borussia Dortmund’s famous “Yellow Wall”

So could Paradise be about to follow suit? And would the majority of the supporters want it to?

The Relentless Celtic Goal Machine Rolls On | 102 Goals and Counting

Tue, 14 Feb 2023 06:05:00 -0000

New signing Oh smashed home his first goal for Celtic at the weekend - a strike which was also our 100th of the 2022/23 season.

Shortly after, Matt O’Riley and Reo Hatate nudged that figure up to 102 as this relentless Celtic side show no sign of letting up in front of goal.

The goalscoring figures for our 36 games in all competitions are incredible, and with potentially 17 games left to play Ange Postecoglou’s men could be set to blow all previous records out the water!

Ange Continues To Look Ahead | Do These 3 Amigos Have a Long Term Future At Celtic?

Tue, 07 Feb 2023 06:01:00 -0000

Just because the January Transfer Window is over, doesn’t mean that Ange and his backroom staff have taken a break from continuing to fine tune Celtic’s squad – quite the opposite in fact.

The manager has been speaking this week about the Celtic Park futures of Joe Hart, Aaron Mooy and David Turnbull – all who find themselves out of contract next summer.

Hart has been huge for Celtic, Mooy is the man of the moment, and Turnbull’s talent is undeniable.

But do they have a future at Parkhead beyond summer 2024?

Are Celtic Stronger Now Than At The Start of The January Transfer Window | Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic v4.0

Tue, 31 Jan 2023 06:15:00 -0000

The target for Celtic when entering any transfer window is to ensure that we come out the other side even stronger.

So are we?

In Ange Postecoglou’s fourth transfer window we’ve made key additions in Yuki Kobayashi, Alistair Johnston, Tomoki Iwata and Hyeongyu Oh, but have also lost big hitters Josip Juranovic and (very likely) Giorgos Giakoumakis.

So are we better off for our January trading?

Is there anything the club should have handled differently?

Are we happy with the work that Ange, Mark Lawwell and Michael Nicholson continue to do?

Celtic Are Playing The Transfer Market To Perfection | Ange & Nicholson’s New Strategy Paying Dividends

Tue, 24 Jan 2023 06:45:00 -0000

With confirmation that Josip Juranovic has joined Union Berlin in a deal that could be worth up to £10m we’ve now seen the first example of Ange Postecoglou’s transfer policy coming full circle.

Signed by the Australian for £2.5M, Juranovic leaves as a league winner and could net the club up to four times what they paid for him.

This is the right move for all parties.

As Ange himself says: “I don't think there needs to be winners and losers out of this”.

In his place comes another World Cup star in the shape of Alistair Johnston, almost four years his junior and looking every bit the accomplished full back.

A similar strategy looks likely in terms of Giorgos Giakoumakis’ imminent departure, with a profit on his signing, and a younger striker taking his place.

Both players will leave with everyone’s best wishes but this is a new approach by Celtic - steered by Ange and Michael Nicholson – and it’s only going to see us continue to improve!

The SFA: Unaccountable, Incompetent & Invisible | Failing Scottish Football

Tue, 17 Jan 2023 06:45:00 -0000

This weekend’s League Cup semi-finals presented a perfect opportunity to show off Scottish Football in the best possible way, as 4 of our top flight sides came together at the National Stadium to compete for a place in next month’s final.

Instead the players were met with a park that would be seriously questioned at amateur level, and a level of officiating that left many wondering why VAR was ever introduced in the first place.

These are just the latest failings of the SFA but the list is lengthy and the time for action is now if respectability is to be restored in the Scottish game.

Not just for Celtic’s sake, but for all involved in Scottish Football.

Analysing Celtic: “The Data” vs The “Eye Test” | The Reo Hatate Question

Tue, 10 Jan 2023 07:00:00 -0000

There’s been a lot of talk recently about data in football, particular in the Celtic Fan Media space.

But should analytics, xG and performance stats ever be deemed more important than the old fashioned eye test when it comes to how we evaluate football and footballers?

More and more teams in the modern game are taking a data driven/”Moneyball” approach when it comes to recruitment – and that has its merits – but can stats, graphs and percentages really tell you if someone is a good player or not?

We go through the pros and cons of a subject that seems to divide football fans the world over in this week’s “Big Debate”.

As one data enthusiast says:

“If David wants to beat Goliath, you can’t do that by using the same weapons!

Apparently.

Ange’s Vital Derby Day Decisions + Are Celtic Now Being Refereed To A Different Standard?

Tue, 03 Jan 2023 20:39:05 -0000

Celtic came out of the New Year’s Derby with their 9 point lead at the top of the table intact and can be pleased with that after a mixed performance at Ibrox.

Ange had some big calls to make with his starting line-up and it could be debated he got some right and some wrong on the day.

His exceptional use of second half substitutions can’t be argued with though as Jota, Mooy and Giakoumakis all played a part in the move that led to Kyogo’s crucial late strike!

Elsewhere, the catalogue of VAR decisions going against Celtic continues to grow with Connor Goldson being allowed to play volleyball in the box as Celtic pressed for an equaliser.

We’re now 10 games into VAR in Scottish Football and a system that started poorly on an October lunchtime at Tynecastle, has now become an increasing concern.

Where’s the SFA’s “Head of Referee Operations” when you need him? An individual who’s extremely selective about his media appearances.

A Unique Approach To The Celtic Puzzle | The Incredible Evolution of Callum McGregor

Tue, 20 Dec 2022 07:00:00 -0000

The Scottish Premiership resumed this weekend, with Celtic picking up exactly where they left off.

Scoring goals and winning games.

Jim Goodwin’s Aberdeen took a surprisingly negative approach to the game however, with only an 87th minute goal by Callum McGregor ensuring all 3 points returned to Glasgow.

It was a game which gifted us the rarely spotted 8-0-2 formation.

And despite that, it was a game which Aberdeen very nearly took something from.

Is it a poor reflection on Scottish Football that this is what we’re seeing from a team generally accepted as the third force in the country?

Have teams in Scotland run out of ways to outfox Ange Postecoglou’s side?

Thankfully McGregor showed just how influential he is to this Celtic side with a match winning display.

The captain completely dominated the midfield and it was fitting that he scored the winner on his return to the first team.

Just how far has the 29 year old come after stepping out of the shadows of Scott Brown?

What’s Stopping Celtic From Winning The Treble This Season?

Tue, 13 Dec 2022 05:30:00 -0000

Celtic’s recent historic ‘Quadruple Treble' is an outlier in World Football. Success of that nature is incredibly hard to come by, and the history of Celtic (and of football) tells us this. Despite dominating Scottish Football in large spells, Celtic have won just 7 trebles in 135 years. 4 of which were in the last 5 years. It’s not a foregone conclusion that Ange Postecoglou’s side are going to coast their way to treble number 8. Far from it. But what (or who?) is going to stop them from doing so? Injuries? Complacency? The Opposition? VAR? What do Celtic need to do between now and Scottish Cup Final Day to make more history? To stand alone in the record books as the club with more trebles than any other in World Football? This week we provide an in-depth assessment of the challenge that awaits in the second half of the season, as Ange and his players aim to make their own history.

The Return of Peter Lawwell | The Pros, The Cons & Everything In Between

Tue, 06 Dec 2022 06:00:00 -0000

In a move that surprised absolutely no one, Celtic confirmed last week that former Chief Executive Peter Lawwell will return to the club as Chairman in 2023.

This is an issue which completely splits opinion amongst the Celtic support.

Many maintain that Peter Lawwell should be nowhere near the club following the failings of the 2020/21 season and his subsequent exit.

Some think the man who presided over 29 trophies, including 13 league titles and a Quadruple Treble can do no wrong.

And others still are somewhere in between!

We take a closer look at Lawwell’s imminent return and what it could mean for the club.

Could it derail the progress Ange is making?

Why wasn’t it announced at the AGM?

And have Celtic failed to read the room once again?

Is Ange Now Prioritising Defence As Celtic’s Best Form of Attack? | Time Up For Juranovic

Tue, 29 Nov 2022 06:03:00 -0000

Following confirmation that Japanese centre-half Yuki Kobayashi will become Celtic's first signing of the January window, and with Canadian right-back Alistair Johnston set to follow, is it clear that Ange Postecoglou has now prioritised Celtic's defence as an area for improvement?

Whilst our league form has been excellent so far, we've still conceded almost a goal a game (13 from 15 games) in the Scottish Premiership, whilst also conceding 15 from just 6 Champions League group games.

Ange made similar moves in the summer to strengthen defensively with the additions of Moritz Jenz (on loan from Lorient) and Alexandro Bernabei arriving from Argentina, but will he be happy to put away the cheque book (for now) once Kobayashi and Johnston arrive at Celtic Park?

Enjoy the latest instalment of The Celtic Exchange Weekly as Ange prepares to enter his 4th transfer window as Celtic manager.

The Players Ange Postecoglou Should Build His Next Celtic Side Around | A £66M Question

Tue, 22 Nov 2022 06:15:00 -0000

Ange Postecoglou will shortly enter his 4th transfer window as Celtic manager.

Players will come, and players will go. That’s life at Celtic.

But who are the core of this current squad that he should retain at all costs and build his next Celtic side upon?

Is anyone indispensable?

Are there players that should reluctantly be let go IF the money is right?

And is there hope for any of the 10 loanees currently plying there trade elsewhere at this time?

Listen in to the latest instalment of The Celtic Exchange Weekly as we discuss the latest steps in the ongoing evolution of the club under the management of Ange Postecoglou.

Going Behind the Numbers on Celtic’s Half-Term Report Card | The Ange Evolution Continues

Tue, 15 Nov 2022 06:15:00 -0000

Celtic’s 2-1 win over Ross County on Saturday was the club’s twenty-third game of what’s been an eventful season so far.

In the Scottish Premiership it’s been a season of success and consistency.

In Europe we’ve learned some harsh lessons at the hands of more experienced teams. Teams who boast some of the world’s best players.

Ange Postecoglou doesn’t have a problem with that though.

He likes lessons.

He likes learning.

And he knows how valuable these lessons will be to his young squad.

So what will they have learned as we now enter the World Cup break?

How have the results stacked up overall? What about the performances? And are we better now than we were twelve months ago?

We go behind the numbers and look at the players who have made us tick in those twenty or so appearances.

The one’s who Ange relies on time after time, and the ones who reward his trust by putting in match winning displays.

Listen in as we debate the half-term report card and discuss how the ongoing evolution of Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic is shaping up.

Ange’s Aggressive New Transfer Strategy | Celtic Eye Lucrative Rewards in Champions League Shake Up

Tue, 08 Nov 2022 06:15:00 -0000

One of the most exciting pieces of news to come out of Celtic's recent AGM was confirmation from Ange Postecoglou that the club will be undertaking an "aggressive" new transfer strategy as we aim to bridge the gap between ourselves and Europe's biggest clubs.

This may mean fans having to bid farewell to some of the current crop of heroes, but the flip side of course is that new heroes will emerge as we continue to progress under Ange's leadership.

Chief Financial Officer Chris McKay also spoke at the AGM of the importance of Champions League qualification on a consistent basis and confirmed exciting new plans for a revamped format of the tournament from the 2024/25 season, which could open the door to lucrative new revenues for the club.

What’s Required to Take This Celtic Side to The Next Level?

Tue, 01 Nov 2022 06:00:00 -0000

With news breaking that Celtic are set to sign 22 year old Japanese centre half Yuki Kobayashi from J-League side Vissel Kobe in January, it’s clear that the planning for the second half of the season and beyond is already well underway at Celtic Park.

So on that note, what are the key areas that the club need to prioritise - both on and off the park – if we’re to reach the next level and to achieve the European success that Ange Postecoglou craves?

Ange has achieved early success domestically with last season’s League and League Cup double, but it’s clear that he has a burning ambition to take us to new heights under his leadership and encouragingly it looks like there’s a clear plan within the club to help him do so.

We cover this subject from all angles in this week's episode as Tino, Mif, Paddy & James debate the improvements necessary to reach the next stage.

The Final Whistle: Hearts v Celtic | Scottish Premiership | Saturday 22nd October 2022

Sat, 22 Oct 2022 21:15:22 -0000

Celtic claimed a dramatic but deserved three points in a seven goal thriller this afternoon at Tynecastle as VAR made a debatable debut in Scottish Football!

It was end to end stuff at times with Hearts playing their part in having a go but ultimately the Champions would prove too strong in the end.

Goals from James Forrest, Giorgos Giakoumakis and Daizen Maeda set us up for a grandstand finish before fans favourite Greg Taylor found himself in the six yard box to slot home the winner with his first league goal for the Hoops.

The player was mobbed by his teammates as the visiting fans went wild and it could go on to be a crucial day in this season’s title race.

Tino & Mif were on the mics in this special extended show as VAR’s introduction into Scottish Football got off to a questionable start!

The Warm Up Show: Hearts v Celtic | Scottish Premiership | Saturday 22nd October 2022

Fri, 21 Oct 2022 17:25:05 -0000

Celtic head to Tynecastle for a lunchtime kick off against Hearts on Saturday fresh from the 4-0 midweek cup win against Motherwell that will have the players full of confidence.

It's always a hard place to go but with ten goals scored in the last two games Celtic have found their shooting boots again and will be looking to add to that tally against the Edinburgh side.

Jota and David Turnbull remain unavailable alongside longer terms absentees Calum McGregor and Carl Starfelt but Ange Postecoglou still has plenty to call upon as the Hoops look to extend their lead at the top of the table.

Tino was joined by James and Mif for this one as they looked ahead to Matchday 11 in this season's Scottish Premiership.

p.s VAR makes it's Scottish Football debut this weekend - what could possibly go wrong!

The Final Whistle: Motherwell v Celtic | Premier Sports League Cup | Wednesday 19th October 2022

Thu, 20 Oct 2022 09:50:02 -0000

Celtic booked their place in the semi-finals of the Premier Sports League Cup with an emphatic 4-0 win over Motherwell at Fir Park.

Liel Abada made it 8 goals for the season with a double on the night before Reo Hatate and countryman Kyogo Furuhashi made sure of the result.

It’s now 10 goals in the last two games for Celtic and the confidence is well and truly back in the side as we now head to Tynecastle for a testing match with Hearts on Saturday lunchtime.

Tino & James were on the mics to bring you all the action from an enjoyable night at Fir Park.

The Warm Up Show: Motherwell v Celtic | Premier Sports League Cup | Wednesday19th October 2022

Wed, 19 Oct 2022 11:37:43 -0000

Celtic make the short trip to Fir Park for tonight's quarter final against Motherwell and will be looking to take a step closer to retaining the trophy that Ange Postecoglou and his men picked up at Hampden Park back in December of last year.

For new players such as Alexandro Bernabei, Moritz Jenz, Aaron Mooy and Sead Haksabanovic this will be their first chance of silverware with Celtic, and should Ange choose to rotate the squad for this one he should find himself with a group of players eager to impress.

Motherwell bet Inverness 4-0 in the previous round thanks to a Kevin Van Veen hat-trick but have found themselves in indifferent form in their six league fixtures since with only one win, alongside four defeats and a draw.

Cup football is a different animal though and Stevie Hammell's men will be just as keen as the Bhoys to book their place at Hampden for the semi-finals.

Tino & James were on the mics to cover all the key talking points ahead of this one.

The Jamesie Forrest Show | Celtic Academy Graduate Joins the 100 Club

Tue, 18 Oct 2022 06:00:00 -0000

Mif’s been waiting on this day for a long, long time but finally we have an episode dedicated to his Celtic hero, James Forrest!

By ‘episode’ we mean 5-10 mins at the start as we sing the praises of the hat-trick hero as he joins an elite band of Celts to have scored 100 times for the club.

Well done Jamesie. A modern day Celtic legend!

In other news we look at Celtic’s European progress and on the bigger picture as our first Champions League campaign under Ange Postecoglou enters its final couple of games.

Whilst some individual results have been disappointing we’re a long way from the Sparta Prague and even the Bodo Glimt results of recent European campaigns and there's plenty reasons for optimism.

Domestically Celtic face a couple of tough away trips this week in the shape of a Premier Sports League Cup Quarter Final at Fir Park in midweek, followed by a Scottish Premiership fixture at Tynecastle on Saturday lunchtime. It's a busy calendar and Ange will likely rotate the squad further as he looks to navigate his way through a couple of tricky fixtures. Tino, Mif & James were on the mics for this one to cover all of the above and the other key talking points in Celtic this week.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Hibs | Scottish Premiership | Saturday 15th October 2022

Sat, 15 Oct 2022 20:25:44 -0000

Jamesie Forrest wrote himself into the Celtic history books against Hibs this afternoon as he became just the 30th player in our long and illustrious history to score 100 goals for the club.

He's not a player that we always agree on here at The Celtic Exchange but he deserves all the praise going for the contribution he's made for the club and for his impressive achievements over the years.

Giorgos Giakoumakis also added two goals to his tally with under fire Daizen maeda rounding things off as Celtic ran out eventual 6-1 winners against the Edinburgh side.

The result sees Ange Postecoglou's side stretch their lead at the top to five points, with a substantial goal difference also providing some comfort there.

Tino, Mif & James were on hand to discuss all of the above as well as some other key talking points following an impressive display at Celtic Park!

The Warm Up Show: Celtic v Hibs | Scottish Premiership | Saturday 15th October 2022

Fri, 14 Oct 2022 20:40:16 -0000

Part pre-match Hibs show, part Celtic in Europe discussion, Tino and Mif were on the mics tonight to debate the talking points of the day as the Hoops prepare to return to league action on Saturday at Celtic Park.

The Edinburgh side have crept up to 3rd in the league table and should provide a stern test for Ange Postecoglou's men who'll be keen to put the midweek defeat by RB Leipzig behind them with a confident home win.

Jota remains on the treatment table alongside longer term absentees Carl Starfelt and Callum McGregor and David Turnbull and Stephen Welsh join them this weekend to give a number of selection headaches ahead of the 3pm kick off.

Does Matt O'Riley remain in the No.6 position? Will Ange take misfiring Daizen Maeda out of the firing line? And as always, Giakoumakis or Kyogo?

Celtic Find A Way to Win | There’s No ’I’ In Team, But There’s One In ’Win’

Tue, 04 Oct 2022 05:00:00 -0000

We love a quote here at TCE and this week's episode is named after some words made famous by the biggest winner on the planet, Michael Jordan!

Celtic ultimately took all 3 points in Saturday's 2-1 v Motherwell but there's been notable discussion about the way in which we won, and of the fact that we were far from our free flowing best on the day.

Winning is everything though and it's far better to be debating the team's performance having collected the 3 points than if we had dropped anything to The Steelmen.

We know this Ange Postecoglou side can play so much better - we've witnessed it this season already - and the hope is that the players can find top form ahead of some huge fixtures that will take place this month.

Next up its Matchday 3 of the Champions League and the first of a double header with RB Leipzig, and no better platform for the players to show what they're capable of.

Tino, Mif & Paddy were on the mics for this one to bring you all of the above and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Midweek Bulletin: International Updates as Celtic Prepare to Face Motherwell

Wed, 28 Sep 2022 13:59:04 -0000

Something a bit different from us today.

This is a short 10-minute episode from host Tino, providing some key updates on those who were off representing their countries over the last ten days or so.

Some mixed successes for the various players and some injury concerns for Ange Postecoglou as he prepares his team for the visit of Motherwell following that disappointing St Mirren defeat a couple of weeks ago.

Some would scrap international football altogether with one listener commenting that "it's like going to the dentist - a necessary evil!"

It's not all that bad we don't think, but it certainly doesn't compare with Celtic.

Bring on the weekend!

A Result No One Seen Coming: Dissecting Domestic Defeat + Celtic’s Champions League Home Advantage

Tue, 20 Sep 2022 05:05:00 -0000

Celtic's 38 game unbeaten league run came to a surprising end at the weekend with a 2-0 defeat by St Mirren which absolutely no one seen coming!

It was our first loss in the league in almost a full calendar year, and although not a result anyone wanted it may just remind all concerned that there's still work to be done if we're to reach the levels Ange Postecoglou wants to take us.

Elsewhere a Champions League stalemate with Shakhtar Donetsk may well prove to be a valuable point with Celtic sitting in a good position in the group if we can take care of both Leipzig and Shakhtar at Celtic Park during October.

The players now break for international duty, and whilst for some that provides an opportunity to represent their country, others will benefit from the chance to rest and recuperate at Lennoxtown ahead of a relentless run of fixtures in October.

Paddy, Mif & Sinky discuss all of the above and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Target Exciting New Levels Under Ange Postecoglou

Tue, 13 Sep 2022 05:00:00 -0000

Celtic are back in Champions League action this week against Shakhtar Donetsk after a very credible performance against current champions Real Madrid on Matchday 1.

Despite the defeat on the night Ange Postecoglou's side proved that they could go toe to toe with the best that the Champions League has to offer - at least in spells - and will be looking to take that confidence into the remaining five group games in Group F.

In all likelihood Celtic will now be battling with Shakhtar Donetsk and Leipzig for that second place spot in the group behind Madrid, and the chance to progress to the last 16 of this season’s competition.

Ange has propelled the club to incredible new levels in the short time since he arrived from Japan and players and fans alike are excited by the prospect of just how far the charismatic Australian can take us.

The suggestion that he may be tempted by a Premier League club in the future (Brighton have been mentioned this week) is understandable given the changes he has implemented and the success he’s brought to the club so far. However it does feel like Ange is building something special at Celtic and all connected to the club will be hopeful that he remains at Celtic Park for the foreseeable future and can realise his coaching ambitions with us.

Tino, Mif & Paddy discuss all of the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic stormed into a five point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table on Saturday with a hugely impressive 4-0 win over Rangers in the first Glasgow Derby of the season.

Ange Postecoglou’s men were relentless from first whistle as they ruthlessly exposed the deficiencies of their Glasgow rivals in a one sided match at Celtic Park.

Liel Abada was the star of the show with two clinical strikes in the first half but was followed closely by a midfield trio of Callum McGregor, Matt O’Riley and Liel Abada who ensured Celtic took full control of this one from an early stage.

The win means Celtic maintain their 100% start to the league campaign with six wins from six in the league, and a total of 25 goals scored so far., with just one conceded.

It’s formidable form at this early stage in the season and sets the Bhoys up perfectly for a challenge of a different kind as European Champions Real Madrid come calling in our opening Champions League fixture on Tuesday night.

Tino & Brydo were on the mics to review all the key talking points from another sensational performance at Celtic Park.

Jota And Abada Destroy Rangers in Glasgow Derby | Celtic’s Champions League Challenge

Tue, 06 Sep 2022 12:28:25 -0000

Ange Postecoglou’s side exerted their total dominance on Saturday with a crushing 4-0 win over Rangers that left Giovanni Van Bronckhort’s side wondering what had hit them at a packed Celtic Park.

Van Bronckhorst of course played in the original “Demolition Derby” some twenty two years ago as Henrik Larsson and co. inflicted a 6-2 defeat on Rangers back in August 2000.

We now have a new Demolition Derby to add to the collection as this exciting Celtic side won by their own four goal margin in a game which highlighted the very best of what Ange Postecoglou's team have to offer.

Liel Abada picked up the Man of the Match award on the day, and rightly so for his two goal return and excellent all round performance, however it was his Portuguese team mate Jota who raised things to a different level with an outstanding second goal for Celtic – a goal which will be remembered by fans far and wide for many years to come.

The timing of the sparkling performance couldn’t have been better with Celtic heading into matchday 1 of this season’s Champions League this week full of confidence as they await the challenge that current holders Real Madrid will present.

It’s set to be an electric night at Celtic Park on Tuesday and players and fans alike can’t wait to see Ange’s side test themselves on a whole new level as we come up against Karim Benzema and co. in European football’s top competition.

Elsewhere we seen the close of a summer transfer window which has seen Celtic achieve just about everything they set out to do. Returning heroes Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers are now here on a permanent basis, some big earners have been removed from the wage bill, and we now have genuine cover in all key areas of the park.

A deadline day move for Danish internationalist Oliver Abildgaard completed our work in the market for now and we take a look at what our new number 28 may add to the midfield.

Tino, Paddy & James discuss all of the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Fire Nine Past United | Glasgow Derby, Champions League Drama &Transfer Deadline Day

Tue, 30 Aug 2022 14:12:56 -0000

Celtic made history at the weekend as they recorded their biggest ever away win in the Scottish top flight with a 9-0 annihilation of Dundee United at Tannadice.

Kyogo Furuhashi and Liel Abada both grabbed hat-tricks on the day with Jota, Josip Juranovic and Carl Starfelt also getting involved in the goal scoring action.

Reo Hatate and Matt O’Riley continue to shine in the midfield and were both excellent on the day as the Hoops continued their 100% start to the league campaign.

Elsewhere excitement builds following a Champions League draw which has paired us alongside European giants real Madrid, Shakhtar Donetsk of Ukraine, and Leipzig from the Bundesliga.

It all kicks off next week at Celtic Park as Champions League holders Real Madrid come calling on Matchday 1 of this seasons tournament.

Players and fans alike are eagerly anticipating their arrival as Ange Postecoglou takes his first steps as a manager on to European football’s biggest stage.

Before all that Celtic have a league cup tie at Ross County to contend with, as well as the small matter of the first Glasgow Derby of the season, as the Bhoys head into a relentless run of fixtures between now and this year’s World Cup in November.

It’ll be a testing time for this side, but Ange and his players wouldn’t have it any other way!

This week will also see the summer transfer window slam shut, and following the arrival of Montenegran winger Sead Haksabanovic we may still see some ins and outs at Celtic Park as Ange continues to fine tune his squad for the season ahead.

Tino, Mif & James discuss all of the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Relived (Preview): Billy Stark and Celtic’s Historic Centenary Season

Thu, 25 Aug 2022 13:04:10 -0000

In the first episode of our exclusive new Celtic Relived series we were joined by Billy Stark – a hugely popular and talented member of Celtic’s Double Winning Centenary Team.

Billy played a vital part in the club’s success in that special season, ultimately finishing third top scorer behind Andy Walker and Frank McAvennie, and for those who recall was instrumental in our comeback win over Dundee United in that memorable 1988 Scottish Cup Final.

In addition to the successful career path that took him to Celtic, and the story of that incredible Centenary Season, Billy also spoke fondly of his close relationship with Celtic hero Tommy Burns and on the bond that was formed between them even before they both shared a dressing room together at Celtic Park.

Kyogo & Giako Break Hearts | Champions League Draw Excitement | Away Ticket Puzzler

Tue, 23 Aug 2022 13:53:55 -0000

CELTIC took advantage of results elsewhere to take an early lead in the title race this weekend as goals from Kyogo Furuhashi and Giorgos Giakoumakis were enough to see off Hearts at Celtic Park.

It perhaps wasn’t the free flowing we’ve come to expect from Ange Postecoglou’s side, but at the same time it was a deserved victory and a result that sees us maintain our 100% start to the league campaign.

Hearts’ manager Robbie Neilson bemoaned some refereeing decisions post-match and in truth if he put as much focus on his teams approach to the game as he did to his complaints then they may just have fared a bit better on the day.

This week will see Celtic take their place in the draw for this season’s Champions League group stages as we return to European football’s top table. We join the likes of Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and PSV Eindhoven on that stage and anticipation is building as to who face following Thursday’s draw.

It all takes place at 5pm Celtic Park time from Istanbul (where this season’s final will take place) and we’ll bring you the breaking news on that as it happens.

In other news clubs continue to cut the away allocation for Celtic supporters and in a puzzling move St Mirren have taken a particularly unique approach to this as they try to appease their fans.

Tino, Mif & Paddy discuss all of the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

5 Star Celtic Hammer Kilmarnock | Jenz & Giako’s Overhead Kick Competition | Greg Taylor MOTM

Tue, 16 Aug 2022 12:50:18 -0000

Tino, Mif & James took to the mics this week as Celtic blew away Kilmarnock this weekend on an enjoyable afternoon in East Ayrshire. The Bhoys racked up 5 goals without reply against their Scottish Premiership opponents to restore their place at the top of the table and make it 3 wins from 3 in the league campaign so far.

It was a game that many thought would prove difficult but in truth once Kyogo opened the scoring in the 7th minute there was no looking back!

Greg Taylor continues to impress as a key component of this Ange Postecoglou side and picked up the Man of the Match award for his efforts against his former employers.

In other news, Carl Starfelt returned and chipped in with his first Celtic goal, whilst Moritz Jenz and Giorgos Giakoumakis had their very own overhead kick competition!

We also discuss a proposed extension of the tv rights deal between the SPFL and Sky Sports and what it could mean for Celtic as well as others in Scottish Football.

Is the Scottish game selling itself short once again? Do we need to be more confident in what our game offers when it comes to renegotiating our deals?

Next up on league duty it’s 3rd placed Hearts and with the Hoops steadily working through the gears it’s going to take something special to knock them out of their stride at Celtic Park on Sunday.

We discuss all of the above and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Debut Goal for Moritz Jenz | Jota’s Sparkling Form Continues | Transfer Talk

Tue, 09 Aug 2022 13:30:44 -0000

CELTIC made it two Scottish Premiership wins from two at the weekend with a hard fought 3-1 win over Ross County in the Highlands.

Moritz Jenz marked his competitive debut with a powerful headed goal, but it was Portuguese winger Jota who was once again the main man as he picked up another Man of the Match award following his hat-trick of assists.

The transfer window now has just over three weeks left to run and various rumours continue to do the rounds as to who may join Ange Postecloglou’s side ahead of the 1st September deadline.

Others such as Chris Jullien, James McCarthy and Albian Ajeti may be heading for the exit – either on loan or permanently – as Ange continues to fine tune his squad.

Next up it’s Kilmarnock at Rugby Park as the Hoops target a third league win of the season against Derek McInnes’ newly promoted side.

Tino, Mif & Paddy we’re on the mics to discuss all of the above and more in this episode of the Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Flag Day at Celtic Park | Fans’ Tifo Display | Jota Steals the Show with Stunning Strike

Tue, 02 Aug 2022 13:05:00 -0000

CELTIC were finally back in competitive action at the weekend with the long awaited return of the Scottish Premiership, and it was a thoroughly enjoyable Flag Day at Celtic Park with captain Callum McGregor raising the league flag ahead of kick off.

The backdrop of this was a stunning stadium wide tifo display - organised by the Green Brigade, and funded by the wider Celtic support - and it was a sight to behold as they players prepared to defend the league trophy they so deservedly claimed back in May.

Stephen Welsh gave the Hoops an early lead before Jota sealed the three points with a stunning strike to get the campaign off to the perfect start.

In other news, the club have confirmed that Chairman Ian Bankier will step down from his duties at the end of the year, with former CEO Peter Lawwell being suggested by many as the man who will replace him in the role.

Tino, Mif & James also discuss stadium banners, 3rd kits, and everything else in between in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Pre-Season Complete | Celtic Debuts for Mooy & Jens | The Big Kick Off - Flag Day v Aberdeen

Tue, 26 Jul 2022 15:13:35 -0000

CELTIC rounded off their pre-season campaign with a comfortable 2-0 win over Norwich City on Saturday with Reo Hatate continuing his excellent pre-season form with another Man of the Match performance.

Many have tipped Jota and Kyogo to be the main men this season – and they may well be right – but the young Japanese midfielder is looking refreshed and energised ahead of the big kick off and may well be one of Ange’s biggest performers in 2022/23.

The game also saw debuts for Aaron Mooy and Moritz Jens, with the latter in particular putting himself in the frame for a start at the weekend.

Sunday will of course see Celtic raise the league flag once again ahead of our opening league fixture with Aberdeen and after 11 weeks without competitive football the fans will be out in force to welcome their heroes back to Celtic Park once again.

Ange Postecoglou has indicated that we’re not quite finished in the transfer market yet, and we may well see some further comings and goings over the next few weeks as he looks to shape a squad capable on both the domestic front and in Europe.

Mif took over hosting duties this week and was joined in the studio by James & Sinky to cover all of the above and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange weekly.

The Pre-Season Predictions Show | New Signings Incoming

Tue, 19 Jul 2022 09:46:00 -0000

WITH Celtic now closing in on the start of the new Scottish Premiership season we sat down this week to provide our Pre-Season Predictions across a range of categories as our esteemed(!) panel discuss the players who’ll be making the headlines in 2022/23.

Who’ll be the star man this year, who’s the next exciting youth prospect to break through to the first team, and who will be the surprise package of the season? We discuss all of this and more with less than two weeks to go to the big kick off.

(Disclaimer: We reserve the right to get these predictions completely wrong and to revise them at will as the season unfolds!)

Speculation also continues as to who Ange will be adding to the squad, with Australian international Aaron Mooy looking likely to arrive this week. Others should follow according to recent comments from Ange himself and it remains to be seen if we’ll get the ball playing centre-half and defensive midfielder that many fans have been calling for.

The Bhoys followed a midweek win against Banik Ostrava in the Czech Republic with a battling 2-2 draw against Blackburn Rovers at Celtic Park on Saturday and we look back on those matches as well as a short preview on the remaining pre-season fixtures against Legia Warsaw (Wed 20th July) and Norwich (Sat 23rd July).

Tino, Mif, James & Paddy were on the mics this week, covering all of the above and more in the latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic V2.0 | Pre-Season Ponderings

Wed, 13 Jul 2022 09:40:00 -0000

LIKE returning heroes Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers, we too at The Celtic Exchange are back for a whole new season where we’ll bring you the very best of all things Celtic – on and off the park.

Ange Postecoglou continues to build on last season's double success and its an exciting time as the fans anticipate what Ange's Celtic v2.0 will look like.

As always at this time of year the main focus is on what other players will be signing up to be part of the Ange Revolution, as he fine tunes his squad to defend the league title and to take their place amongst Europe’s elite in the UEFA Champions League.

Alexandro Bernebei and Benjamin Siegrist have joined Jota and Carter-Vickers in committing to the club, with Ange stating that he wants a couple of more additions ahead of the new season. Speculation and rumours will rage on about who that will be and we’ll look to bring you any news once confirmed.

Meantime some other players have now moved on – either on a permanent basis or on loan deals – with the likes of Karamoke Dembele, Vasilis Barkas and Ismaila Soro deciding to ply their trade elsewhere, at least for the season ahead.

The pre-season friendlies are already underway with some fringe players getting their chances, but expect the big hitters to return over the next few games as the squad prepare for that all important league opener against Aberdeen at Celtic Park on Sunday 31st July.

Tino, Mif & James were on the mics this week, covering all of the above and more in the latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Wed, 25 May 2022 06:00:00 -0000

The curtain has finally come down on Celtic's 2021/22 season and what a season it's been.

An unknown Ange Postecoglou was announced as the club's new manager in early June and since then the fans have been on a rollercoaster journey as we've followed our charismatic leader and his new team from an opening day defeat to Hearts, right through to last week's trophy lift at Celtic Park against Motherwell - with a whole host of twists and turns in between.

Ange Postecoglou is Just Getting Started | Celtic Are Champions of Scotland Once Again

Tue, 17 May 2022 13:59:00 -0000

ANGE POSTECOGLOU finally got his hands on the Scottish Premiership trophy this weekend as he and captain Callum McGregor were presented with the silverware following a sparkling 6-0 final day win over Motherwell.

It’s a season that started with a lot of question marks, a lot of doubt, but ultimately one which finished with glory as Celtic returned to the top of Scottish Football after a short hiatus.

Ange and his players will now enjoy a well earned break but the planning will already have started for the challenges that next season will bring. Retaining the Scottish Premiership will be a priority, but the excitement of the UEFA Champions League awaits, and the chance to test ourselves against the very best that European Football has to offer.

We now know that long serving players Tom Rogic and Nir Bitton are moving on and the Quadruple Treble winners received a fitting farewell against Motherwell as the fans thanked them for their contributions to the club. Others will follow and new stars will be brought in as Ange and new Head of Scouting & Recruitment Mark Lawwell take plans forward for the 2022/23 season and beyond.

Tino, Mif & Paddy were on the mics to celebrate the Champions of Scotland in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Trophy Week | Ange & The Bhoys Set To Celebrate Incredible Scottish Premiership Success

Tue, 10 May 2022 12:30:00 -0000

SATURDAY afternoon at Celtic Park will be an occasion to savour as we see Ange Postecoglou and his Celtic players rewarded with the Scottish Premiership Trophy after a long and successful campaign.

The presentation will take place after the final day clash with Motherwell and will be a special day for all associated with the club as we reclaim the title at the first time of asking.

Its a success that many wouldn't have predicted when Ange first took the reins back in June, and he and his players deserve great credit for the turnaround in fortunes as well as some of the brilliant football we've seen on display across the season.

The 4-1 win over Hearts at the weekend extended the Bhoys unbeaten league run to 30 games and with just a point needed from Wednesday's fixture against Dundee United at Tannadice and Saturday's match with Motherwell its now just a matter of time before captain Callum McGregor gets his hands on the trophy.

We also look at the appointment of new Head of Scouting & Recruitment Mark Lawwell from the City Football Group, the potential departure from the club of long serving midfielder Nir Bitton, and the retirement from football of one our most successful captains of all time, Scott Brown.

Tino, Mif & Paddy were on the mics to discuss all of the above and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Closing In On The Scottish Premiership Title After Derby Draw | Jota Takes Man Of The Match

Tue, 03 May 2022 20:04:00 -0000

CELTIC took a step closing to reclaiming the Scottish Premiership Title, with a 1-1 draw in the Glasgow Derby maintaining the 6 point gap at the top with just 3 games to play.

Jota showed he was the man for the big occasion with the opening goal and went on to claim the Man of the match award with an impressive all round performance.

The Hoops are now honing in on what would be an incredible title for Ange Postecoglou and his men and another huge game now awaits against Hearts at Celtic Park on Saturday.

The Bhoys also swept the boards this week at the Scottish PFA (Professional Footballers Association) Awards this weekend with Ange Postecoglou (Manager Of The Year), Callum McGregor (Player Of The Year) and Liel Abada (Young Player Of The Year) leading the way.

Tom Rogic also picked up the Goal Of The Season Award for his brilliant solo effort against Dundee United in December.

Kyogo Inspires Ross County Win To Set Up Derby Day Title Decider | Jota Sparkles With Goal & Assist

Tue, 26 Apr 2022 13:11:00 -0000

KYOGO FURUHASHI made his first start since December at the weekend, scoring the all-important opening goal against Ross County to send the Hoops on their way in Dingwall.

It was the Japanese striker’s 17th goal of the season and he showed glimpses of his brilliant best in what was a vital league result in the Highlands.

Not to be outdone, team-mate Jota also had his best game in recent times, providing the assist for Kyogo and then sealing the result with a late strike of his own to ensure Celtic left with all 3 points.

Many speculated of a slip up against a confident County side, but as always Ange Postecoglou and the players blocked out all external noise to continue an impressive run of league form that has now seen us win 24 and draw 4 of our last 28 games.

Ange’s men now hold a 6 point lead going into the final 4 league fixtures, meaning a win at Celtic Park in Sunday’s final Glasgow Derby of the season would effectively (though not mathematically) see the league title begin its journey back to the East end.

Will Kyogo finally start the game in the No.9 role? Will Giorgos Giakoumakis return to provide some physicality? Will #GT3 grab another goal? Whatever happens Celtic Park will be brimming with anticipation on what could turn out to be a very beautiful Sunday.

Tino, Mif & James were on the mics to discuss all of the above and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Re-Focus On Scottish Premiership Title After Cup Disappointment

Mon, 18 Apr 2022 19:26:00 -0000

CELTIC fell to a disappointing extra time defeat in Sunday’s Scottish Cup Semi-Final at Hampden and captain Callum McGregor has quickly moved to re-focus his teammates ahead of the Scottish Premiership run in.

It was a frustrating day at the national stadium with Celtic unable to extend their 33 game unbeaten run and failing to meet the high standards they’ve set throughout the season.

Referee Bobby Madden had an ‘interesting’ game to say the least and whilst his decisions perhaps didn’t directly impact the scoreline they played a notable part throughout the 120 minutes.

Ange Postecoglou and Callum McGregor have both now emphasised the need to put the result behind us, and quickly, as we now aim top reclaim the Scottish Premiership title at the first time of asking.

Ross County are next up on Sunday and the Bhoys will be looking to dust themselves and bounce back quickly with just 5 games now remaining.

Tino, James & Paddy were on the mics to discuss all of the above and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic Hit Top Form Ahead of Scottish Cup Semi-Final | Kyogo Furuhashi Returns

Tue, 12 Apr 2022 11:46:00 -0000

ANGE POSTECOGLOU has talked of finding top form at the right time of the season and nothing epitomised this more than the 7-0 demolition of St Johnstone we witnessed at Celtic Park on Saturday.

Celtic recorded their biggest win of the season against the Perth side, playing exceptionally well throughout the 90 minutes and exhibiting the free flowing football which has now become synonymous with this side.

It comes at a perfect time ahead of Sunday’s Scottish Cup Semi-Final against Rangers and with a full 8 days to prepare for that one confidence will be high in the Celtic dressing room.

A further boost was provided by the long awaited return of top scorer Kyogo Furuhashi who made his first appearance in over 3 months following a hamstring injury.

Tue, 05 Apr 2022 10:44:00 -0000

CELTIC took a massive step closer to reclaiming the Scottish Premiership title with a battling 2-1 win over Rangers at Ibrox.

Giakoumakis Hat-Trick Keeps Celtic Top Of Scottish Premiership | Glasgow Derby Up Next

Tue, 22 Mar 2022 13:56:00 -0000

GIORGOS GIAKOUMAKIS grabbed his second hat-trick of the season on Saturday as he inspired Celtic to a 4-0 win over Ross County in the Scottish Premiership.

It’s the Greek striker’s 8th goal in his last 3 domestic starts and now takes his tally to 12 in the Hoops – 11 of them coming in 2022.

The result ensured that Celtic remained at the top of the Scottish Premiership ahead of their visit to Ibrox on 3rd of April and regardless the result there Celtic will stay top due to their superior goal difference (+14 over Rangers) as well as their 3 point advantage.

The title race is heating up but with just 7 games remaining Celtic find themselves in a solid position to reclaim the title in Ange Postecoglou’s first season at the helm.

Tino, Mif & Paddy were on the mics to discuss all of this and more in this episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Tue, 15 Mar 2022 15:36:00 -0000

A dominating 3-0 win over Dundee Utd at Tannadice on Monday night has paired Celtic with Rangers in the semi-finals at Hampden and with a 3 point lead in the Scottish Premiership talk of a Treble has now heightened amongst the fans.

Ange Postecoglou and the players won't be talking about it - at least not in the media - but it now has to be seen as a very real possibility for a Celtic side now unbeaten in their last 30 games domestically.

Next on the agenda are high flying Ross County who have somehow found their way in to the top 6 and should prove a stern test on Saturday at Celtic Park.

Ange Breaks Hoodoo With Win v Livingston | Jota, Maeda & Forrest Finding Form

Tue, 08 Mar 2022 13:34:00 -0000

ANGE POSTECOGLOU sprung some surprises ahead of kick off at the Tony Macaroni and the Australian was proven correct as Celtic finally won v Livingston for the first time since 2007!

Celtic had been without a win in their last 5 fixtures against Livingston (a record which included 3 draws and 2 defeats) but goals from Daizen Maeda and James Forrest either side of a Nicky Devlin own goal were enough to seal all 3 points.

There are now just 8 games remaining of the Scottish Premiership season and Celtic currently have a 3 point (and 11 goal) advantage as we now head into the Scottish Cup weekend where we face Dundee United on Monday 14th of March.

Tino, Mif & Paddy were on the mics this week to discuss that win at the Tony Macaroni and what it now means for Celtic as the title race enters it's final couple of months.

Celtic Re-Focus For Remaining League Games After Hibs & Bodo Disappointments

Tue, 01 Mar 2022 13:01:00 -0000

CELTIC took on Hibs in the midday sun on Sunday but it proved to be a disappointing afternoon as the players who have been performing so well for us so far this season failed to pick up the points in the capital.

It’s been a tough week all in all with that result coming on the back of a UEFA Conference League exit at the hands of Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt.

Despite the Easter Road stalemate however, Celtic actually maintained their 3 point (and 9 goal) advantage at the top of the Scottish Premiership with Glasgow rivals Rangers unable to take advantage of the slip up.

This now leaves us with just 10 league games remaining as Ange Postecoglou looks to drive the Hoops towards the title at the first time of asking.

Tino, James & Paddy were on the mics to discuss all of the above and more on this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange.

The Final Whistle - Live: Hibs v Celtic (Sun 27th Feb 2022)

Sun, 27 Feb 2022 15:05:00 -0000

A disappointing afternoon at Easter Road as Celtic drop league points for the first time since December with a 0-0 draw against Hibs. Despite recent league results you could say it was coming with performance below par over the last few games and that caught up with us today. We're back in league action in just a few days time with St Mirren the visitors at Celtic Park on Wednesday and Ange will have to find solutions and fast if we're to retain top spot in the Scottish Premiership table.

For The Love Of Ange | Postecoglou Oversees Latest Wins v Aberdeen & Raith

Tue, 15 Feb 2022 12:35:00 -0000

ANGE POSTECOGLOU kicked off Valentine’s Day with another great interview back in his homeland with Stan Sport Australia and gave us yet another reminder (as if we needed one) of just why the Celtic fans have grown to love him so much.

We’ve almost got to the stage where we now look forward to his interviews as much as to watching his new look Celtic taking to the park (almost!) and it’s been a whirlwind romance since the charismatic Australian breezed into our lives last summer.

Last week saw us take care of Aberdeen in the League and Raith Rovers in the Scottish Cup as our perfect start to 2022 continues with 8 wins from 8 since the turn of the year.

The Bhoys will be looking to extend that further with another tough couple of fixtures at Celtic Park this week – firstly with Bodo Glimt in Thursday night’s UEFA Conference League tie, followed by a league game against Dundee on Sunday afternoon.

Tino, James & Chris were on the mics to discuss all of the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

Celtic run out 4-0 winners in today's Scottish Cup tie to put themselves comfortably in to the hat for the next round. Goals from Scales, Giakoumakis, Maeda and Bitton all made for a relatively comfortable afternoon for the Hoops, though Ange wasn’t best pleased with the first half showing. The Quarter Final draw will take place on Monday night as we await our opponents in the last 8. Tino, James & Sinky were on the mics for this one.

Thu, 10 Feb 2022 00:08:00 -0000

Celtic run out 3-2 winners in a 5 goal thriller against Aberdeen at Pittodrie in a true game of two halves. Jota showing his path back to fitness with two clever goals and Matt O'Riley getting a well deserved first strike for Celtic after a fantastic start to his career with the hoops. After a lacklustre first half Aberdeen came out for the second 45 with all guns blazing and got their rewards with two early set piece goals. Celtic replied quickly to re-establish their lead and closed the match out for a hugely impotant win. James, from the comfort of his sofa and Tino, from the discomfort of chilly Aberdeen were on the mics to bring you all the key talking points from Pittodrie.

Reo Bravo | Derby Double For Reo Hatate

Tue, 08 Feb 2022 12:18:00 -0000

FOLLOWING in the footsteps of a certain Lubo Moravcik by scoring a double on his Glasgow Derby debut, Reo Hatate continued his flying start in a Celtic shirt by effectively ending Wednesday’s match with Rangers as a contest before the half-time whistle had even sounded.

If his two goal contribution wasn’t enough, he also then provided the assist for Liel Abada’s goal to make it 3-0 by the interval, ultimately leading Celtic back to the top of the Scottish Premiership table.

Tino, Mif & Paddy are on the mics this week to dissect the derby as Celtic blew away their Glasgow rivals with an incredible first half performance.

Also on the agenda is the equally impressive showing against Motherwell at Fir Park on the weekend, with the Hoops going one better by scoring 4 on the day without reply.

Some key fixtures await this, with a further 6 fixtures across 3 competitions to navigate during the remainder of February.

The first of those is another tough midweek away fixture, this time to Pittodrie, as Aberdeen wait in store for Ange Postecoglou’s men.

The games can’t come quick enough for the fans as the Hoops continue to hit new heights under the Australian’s leadership.

With 6 wins from 6 in 2022 the Bhoys will be doing all the can to extend that record.

Sun, 06 Feb 2022 17:00:00 -0000

Celtic clock up 4 goals at Fir Park with another impressive attacking performance by Ange Postecoglou’s men. Liel Abada maintained his impressive recent scoring form with his 3rd in 3 games before a classy Tom Rogic double sealed the points before the break. Daizen Maeda made it 4 with a deflected effort in the second effort and it seems just a matter of time before this high flying Celtic side rack up a cricket score against someone. Next up its Aberdeen at Pittodrie and another tough challenge on the road for the Bhoys. Tino & James were on the kids this afternoon to cover all the key talking points from Fir Park.

The Final Whistle: Glasgow Derby Special - Celtic v Rangers

Thu, 03 Feb 2022 13:42:00 -0000

IF Reo Hatate and some of his new team-mates weren't sure what they were signing up for when they joined Celtic Football Club then things will certainly have become a whole lot clearing after a pulsating Glasgow derby victory over Rangers under the disco lights at Celtic Park. Hatate (2) and Liel Abada got the all important goals on the night, all coming in an explosive first half display which propels Ange Postecoglou's men to the top of the table for the first time under his leadership. Now that the dust has settled (kinda!) Tino, James & Paddy got on the mics to dissect the game, to cover all the key talking points and to discuss what this now means for this new and exciting team of Ange's.

Paradise Awaits | Abada Sets Up Derby Clash

Mon, 31 Jan 2022 23:16:00 -0000

LIEL Abada nearly took the roof off of Celtic Park with his late, late strike on Saturday and it's now perfectly poised as we head into Wednesday's Glasgow Derby in Paradise.

Tino, Mif & Sinky were on the mics this week to dissect all the drama of the last gasp win over Dundee United as well as the crucial victory against Hearts last midweek.

Next up it's the big one though and the lads focus on what we can expect from Wednesday night under the disco lights as Ange Postecoglou's new look Celtic look to top the table for the first time this season with a victory over Rangers.

How will Ange prepare his squad for this one? What will his starting line-up look like? And who will we be the key men to fire us to the top of the table?

The home support will be in full voice by the time kick off comes around, and with no away support in attendance a special welcome will await the players as they look to take a pivotal step in this season's title race.

We also cover what was a far more relaxing transfer deadline day than in previous seasons given the early activity that brought in 5 exciting new signings in the shape of Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate, Yosuki Ideguchi, Johnny Kenny & Matt O'Riley.

There may well be a few late exits with the likes of Adam Montgomery (Aberdeen) and Osaze Urhoighide (KV Oostende) joining Liam Shaw in making loan moves but by and large it's been a quite end to the window and most fans are pleased with the approach Ange and the Celtic board have taken as the development of his squad continues..

The Final Whistle: Hearts v Celtic (Wed 26th Jan 2022)

Wed, 26 Jan 2022 22:45:00 -0000

A huge 3 points for Celtic at Tynecastle as the Hoops run out 2-1 winners against Hearts in a frantic game under the floodlights! An incredible strike by Reo Hatate opened the scoring before a clever second by Gorgios Giakoumakis shortly after saw us take a deserved 2-0 lead into the break. The second half was less comfortable and a Liam Boyce strike just after the hour mark saw us face a spell of pressure for the first time in the game. Boyce then had a chace to steal a point for Hearts with a 73rd minute penalty but the woodwork came to our rescue before we eventually seen out the result. Debutant Matt O’Riley showed his class at times, particularly in the first half, and was awarded Man Of The Match for his troubles. Team mates Reo Hatate and Jota can't have been far away for some of the creativity and flair they also brought to the game but credit too must go to the likes of Cameron Carter-Vickers, Nir Bitton and Giorgios Giakoumakis who all played their part in getting us over the line. The victory could turn out to be a crucial one in the title race and all eyes now turn to Dundee Utd at Celtic Park on Saturday where the next challenge awaits.

The Life O’Riley | Matt O’Riley Joins The Hoops

Tue, 25 Jan 2022 13:09:00 -0000

CELTIC announced the signing of Matt O’Riley to bolster the ranks in our creative positions last week and it’s not a moment too soon as we contend ourselves with the absence of Tom Rogic and Daizen Maeda on international duty as well as ongoing injury concerns over Kyogo Furuhashi, David Turnbull and now captain Callum McGregor.

A physical encounter with Alloa in the Scottish Cup on Saturday night hasn’t helped our injury woes with Liel and Abada and Yosuke Ideguchi also picking up knocks on the night, but Celtic will have to dust themselves off very quickly as the challenges of Hearts at Tynecastle (Wednesday) and Dundee Utd at Celtic Park (Saturday) await before we then head into the second derby of the season next midweek.

It's a crucial period in the title race and Ange Postecoglou has some big calls to make as he aims to navigate us through these fixtures with maximum points.

Fringe players such as Giorgios Giakounakis, Liam Scales and Tony Ralston will be looking to play their part and we can also look forward to seeing new Bhoys Matt O’Riley and Reo Hatate take centre stage as the title race heats up.

Tino, Paddy and special guest Hamish of 67 Hail Hail were on the mics this week to cover all of the above and more.

Goals from Giorgios Giakoumakis and Liel Abada were enough to see us through and we’ll now face Raith Rovers in the 5th round next month. Ange Postecoglou will be concerned over injuries picked up by captain Callum McGregor, Yosuke Ideguchi and Abada but will be hopeful that all pull through as eyes now turn to Wednesday’s crunch league fixture against Hearts at Tynecastle.

Don’t Worry, Be Hatate | Reo Continues To Shine

Tue, 18 Jan 2022 22:12:00 -0000

DAIZEN Maeda stole the headlines with a quickfire debut goal against Hibs but it was his countryman Reo Hatate who was the undoubted star of the show with a Man of the Match performance in the heart of Celtic’s midfield.

The Japanese star showed us exactly why Ange Postecoglou was so keen to secure his signature and already looks like he’ll slot seamlessly into the starting XI.

A full Celtic Park welcomed the team back after the winter break and the Bhoys didn’t disappoint with an impressive performance against Shaun Maloney’s side.

Yosuke Ideguchi joined Maeda and Hatate in making his debut, but Carl Starfelt, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Greg Taylor also showed their quality on the night.

With our Glasgow rivals dropping points at Pittodrie we’re now within 4 points of the top of the table with some huge matches in store ahead of the derby on 2ndof February.

The January transfer window remains open for another couple of weeks but with no activity in or out in over a week Ange has indicated our signings may be done. We’ll monitor that space closely for any changes.

Tino, James & Sinky were on the mics to discuss all of the above and more.

New Year, New Celtic

Tue, 11 Jan 2022 11:11:00 -0000

CELTIC'S January transfer window continues to gather pace with the signings of Irishman Johnny Kenny and Australian Riley McGree (maybe!) coming hot on the heels of our Japanese trio of Daizen Maeda, Yosuke Ideguchi and Reo Hatate.

There's no doubt we needed to bring in quality additions in key areas across the squad, and we look to have done so fairly well so far with left back and goalkeeper perhaps the other priority areas that Ange Postecoglou will still look to strengthen.

Going the opposite way in the revolving door are young midfielders Liam Henderson to Hibs (Loan deal with a view to a permanent move) and Liam Shaw to Motherwell (Loan deal) and we expect others to follow across the remainder of the window.

The obvious candidates are players such as Vasilis Barkas, Boli Bolingoli, Ismaila Soro and Albian Ajeti who have all found themselves surplus to requirements in Ange's new look Celtic.

Back to matters on the park and the anticipation is building ahead of our return to action against Hibs on Monday coming after 3 weeks without football. How we'll line up is anyone's guess but with indications that full houses will be re-introduced in time for the fixture it should be an occasion to savour for the fans and players alike.

Monday night football under the lights at Celtic Park. Bring it on!

The Sun Rises in the East (End)

Tue, 04 Jan 2022 12:25:00 -0000

ANGE Postecoglou has become so influential in Scottish Football that his January transfer window begins in December!

Celtic fans were given the perfect New Year's gift with confirmation arriving on the morning of 31st December that we had secured the triple signing of of J-League stars Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate and Yosuke Ideguchi.

In this first episode of 2022 we profile the trio as they touch down in Glasgow to play their part in the second half of the season. It's an exciting move by the club and the hope will be that the new Bhoys can make a similar impact to their countryman Kyogo Furuhashi who has very quickly become the talisman of this Celtic side.

We expect to see quite a bit more activity across the remainder of the window in terms of incomings and exits, in addition to the potential permanent signings of Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers which must now be a priority.

Tino, Mif and Sinky were on the mics this week for our first episode of 2022!

The Final Whistle: Celtic v St Johnstone (Sun 26th Dec 2021)

Sun, 26 Dec 2021 16:33:00 -0000

CELTIC head into the winter break having secured a crucial 3 points with a 3-1 win over St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park. Liel Abada took his tally for the season to 10 with a first half brace before Captain for the day, Nir Bitton secured the win with a late strike to see off the Saints. Celtic's squad was decimated pre match, with Vasilis Barkas making his first start in 5 months and youngsters Joey Dawson, Owen Moffa & Ben Doak all taking a place on the bench - the former stepping in to replace Kyogo early in the first half. The Hoops can now enjoy 3 weeks of rest and recuperation before taking to the field again on Monday 17th of January against Shaun Maloney's Hibs. There may also be a few new faces in the squad by then, but in the meantime Ange Postecoglou will just be delighted to have gotten through the latest challenge.

All Systems KyoGO | Furuhashi The Cup Hero

Mon, 20 Dec 2021 21:49:00 -0000

Kyogo Furuhashi was the undoubted star of the show as he returned from injury to fire Celtic to League Cup success with a phenomenal double in Sunday's victory over Hibs.

His involvement in the game had been touch and go following the recent injury he picked up against Real Betis, but the Japanese striker shook that off to steal the show in an thrilling afternoon at Hampden.

For Ange Postecoglou that means the first trophy is now in the bag, providing validation for the methods that he's applied to Celtic since arriving in the summer. He was questioned by many on his arrival in Scotland, but the popular Aussie has a firm belief in what he does and thrives on proving people wrong, which is exactly what he;s doing.

Many of us here in Scotland - ourselves included - had no idea who Ange was when he was first announced back in June. We know now!

Celtic are now on a 7 game winning run and will be looking to keep that up in the remaining three fixtures of the year against St Mirren, St Johnstone and Hibs. If we can manage to do so then the Glasgow Derby on 2nd January will present a huge opportunity for this new Celtic side to state their intentions for the remainder of the league campaign!

Tue, 14 Dec 2021 20:06:00 -0000

It's another huge week for Ange Postecoglou and his players as they take on a vital league fixture at Ross County before heading to Hampden for Sunday's League Cup Final against Hibs.

Celtic have their injury worries but have still managed to rack up the wins with Sunday's victory over Motherwell our 5th straight league win in a row.

Kyogo, James Forrest and Mikey Johnston are our latest players to have picked up injuries and Ange will be hoping they're available for selection for Sunday, if not sooner!

Following our Europa League exploits we also found out that Bodo Glimt of Norway are to be our Europa Conference League opponents come February, and more about that closer to the time.

Tino, Sinky & James took to the mics this week to cover all of the above and more in another huge week for the club.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Motherwell (Sun 12th Dec 2021)

Mon, 13 Dec 2021 20:23:00 -0000

Tino and Paddy joined Hamish from 67 Hail Hail to cover all the key talking points from the 1-0 win over Motherwell. With the injuries mounting up it was a makeshift side without a recognised No.9 that took to the field, but a well worked set piece finished off by Tom Rogic was enough to secure all three points. That's now 5 league victories on the bounce, with a clean sheet in the last 3, as Celtic continue to find ways to win under Ange. Next up it's a trip to face Ross County in Dingwall on Wednesday as the relentless December fixtures continue.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Real Betis (Thu 9th Dec 2021)

Fri, 10 Dec 2021 15:27:00 -0000

A 5 goal thriller sees Celtic come out on top with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Betis at Celtic Park! With so many fixtures on the horizon Ange made an incredible 11 changes to the side that beat Dundee Utd at the weekend, and many of the youngsters done their chances no harm at all over an entertaining 90 minutes. Our goal-scorers on the night are 21, 21 & 22 years of age respectively, which is very promising for the future of this Celtic side. The only downside on the night was the incurring of further injuries that we really don't need just now. Most concern of course centres around Kyogo Furuhashi who looks to have injured his hamstring, with Ajeti also going off with a similar injury. All eyes now turn to Motherwell at Celtic Park on Sunday and the return of Scottish Premiership action. The Bhoys will be going all out to maintain their solid recent form - even if they have to do so without a centre forward!

The Celtic Exchange x A Celtic State of Mind

Mon, 06 Dec 2021 19:37:00 -0000

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Hearts (Thu 2nd Dec 2021)

Thu, 02 Dec 2021 23:27:00 -0000

Celtic took all three points against Hearts in a hard fought battle at Celtic Park tonight to remain four points off the top in the Scottish Premiership title race. Celtic had the better of the chances overall but a one goal lead is always precarious and it could’ve ended level had it not been for some brave defending, particularly from man of the match, Carl Starfelt. credit to the side overall for showing their resilience after losing Tony Ralston, Jota and Stephen Welsh on the night. we kick on now to Dundee utd on Sunday and the 2nd of our 9 fixtures in December.

Messi Pips Jota To Ballon d’Or | Appeal Pending

Tue, 30 Nov 2021 12:25:00 -0000

Lionel Messi picked up a record 7th Ballon d'Or at a glitzy ceremony in Paris this week - once again pipping a famous Portuguese to the title - but the "World's Best Player" can count himself lucky that Jota only made the move to Celtic late in this summer's transfer window, else things might have been very different!

We're at it here of course (mostly!) but there's no doubting the talent the young Portuguese winger has and on the future he may go on to have in the game.

Whether that's at Celtic or elsewhere remains to be seen but his importance to the team at this moment in time is unquestionable and he's at the very heart of all good things we do.

With 5 goals in his last 5 games he's thriving under Ange Postecoglou and all we can do is enjoy him while he's here and hope that he and his new team mates can lead us back to the title this season. After that, it's over to the money men.

It's been a week of mixed results for the club with a narrow (but creditworthy) defeat by Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League before we took all three points against Aberdeen on league duty. Needless to say, Jota scored in both games and played a pivotal role across both fixtures.

We now face a demanding December with no less than 9 fixtures before the turn of the year which will go a long way to determining how successful we are this season.

The first of those fixtures is on Thursday of this week against Hearts at Celtic Park, before a trip to Tannadice to face Dundee United on Sunday.

It's a relentless fixture list with little room for error. The Ange Train rolls on!

Tino, Mif & Paddy cover all this and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Aberdeen (Sun 28th Nov 2021)

Sun, 28 Nov 2021 17:43:00 -0000

A deserved, hard fought 3 points for the Hoops as Celtic run out 2-1 winners at Celtic Park. Jota opened the scoring with Callum McGregor making sure of the points with a fortunate effort in the second half. We’ve seen the Bhoys play better than they done today but were worthy of the points on the day given what they brought to the game. Next up are Hearts on Thursday night as a busy run of December fixtures get underway.

Forrest A Grand Auld Team To Play For | Jamesie Forrest On The Comeback Trail

Mon, 22 Nov 2021 21:01:00 -0000

Comeback man Jamesie Forrest was the star of the show on Saturday night, slamming home the winner at Hampden to take us into next month's League Cup Final.

He has a knack of coming up with big goals in big moments and as a player with just short of 500 appearances for the club his stats are truly remarkable. He's a player who could prove vital to Ange across the remainder of the season!

We also pay tribute to Bertie Auld this week as we remember one of Celtic's greatest sons. A true Celtic hero who lit up the park in the same way as he lit up any room he entered. He'll be sadly missed around Celtic Park and the fans expressed their love of him as only they know how with an incredible tribute at Hampden on the 67th minute, as well as with their pre-match display.

For a man who lifted the biggest prize in European football he was also just one of our own. Someone who was as comfortable competing against top European opposition as he was sharing a joke and a story with fans in the street. His legend will live on.

In footballing matters its another important week as we face Bayer Leverkusen in Germany before returning to play Scott Brown's Aberdeen on Sunday afternoon.

The German's were the last side to inflict defeat on Ange's side 10 games ago, can the Bhoys go one better this time around in matchday 5 of the Europa League?

Tino, Mif & james cover all this and more in this latest episode of The Celtic Exchange Weekly.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v St Johnstone (Sat 20th Nov 2021)

Sun, 21 Nov 2021 14:13:00 -0000

Celtic booked their place in next month's League Cup Final as a James Forrest strike was enough to see us over the line in a stuffy semi final against St Johnstone. Celtic were the dominant force overall but semi finals are rarely pretty affairs and it wasn't until that late goal that we could begin thinking about a return to Hampden. St Johnstone - as expected - set up in a very defensive shape, with the onus on us to break that down. Frustratingly any clear chances were few and far between until James Forrest, as he often does, stepped up on the big occasion. Defensively we were rarely troubled throughout the 90 minutes with Carter-Vickers and Welsh holding firm. James McCarthy also played his part in the latter stages to see us over the line as the clock ticked down on the 97 minutes (97!). Ange who's been with us for less than 6 months can now look forward to his first cup final with Celtic and what could be a hugely important occasion as he looks to get the club back to winning ways!

The Re-Invention of Tony Ralston

Tue, 09 Nov 2021 12:34:00 -0000

Felipe Jota and Kyogo Furuhashi have a phenomenal 28 “goal contributions” in all competitions for Celtic so far this season. Twenty-eight!

We've only just put the clocks back!

With 6 goals between them this week alone, the dynamic frontmen continue to steal the headlines, and rightly so. The two have become increasingly influential since their arrival at the club and alongside captain Callum McGregor have very quickly made themselves indispensable in this Celtic side.

However there’s another story playing out at Celtic Park just now that the fans are enjoying in equal measure – step up Anthony Ralston version 2.0! The Celtic Academy graduate signed an extended deal this week that will keep him at the club until 2025 in a move that not even the most optimistic supporters would have predicted just a few short months ago.

Full credit must go to Ralston himself for the mental fortitude he’s shown this season so far, though Ange Postecoglou must also be credited for getting more out of the young fullback than perhaps even he thought possible.

Tino, Mif & Sinky took to the mics this week to discuss all of the above, as well as an 8 game unbeaten run which has now seen Celtic return 7 wins and 1 draw in all competitions.

The Final Whistle: Dundee v Celtic (Sun 7th Nov 2021)

Sun, 07 Nov 2021 14:49:00 -0000

Keeganball meets Angeball in a thrilling six goal encounter at Dens Park as Celtic run out 4-2 winners! Doubles from Jota and Kyogo were enough to secure the points and to record our 4th straight away win in the league. The goalscorers stole the show but Tony Ralston also continued his recent strong form and was involved in 3 of the 4 goals in an excellent display overall. We now head into the latest international break but Ange and the players will be feeling good about themselves after recent performances. The goals and the wins keep coming and we'll be looking to pick that back up when we face St Johnstone at Hampden in the League Cup semi-final on 20th November.

A big away win in Europe for Celtic as the hoops pick up a crucial 3 points in Hungary! The front 3 of Kyogo, Jota and Abada were on exceptional form and now have an impressive 22 goals between them already this season! All three goals were well worked but the third was a thing of beauty, clinically slotted him by Abada after more great work by Kyogo and his beautiful wee feet!

Livi La Vida Loca | A Frustrating Afternoon At Livingston

Tue, 02 Nov 2021 11:20:00 -0000

More dropped points against the hammer throwers that are Livingston in a frustrating afternoon at Celtic Park cost us the chance to go top of the table this weekend.

Despite our opponents industrial approach however it’s up to us to break them down and Celtic couldn’t find a way through on Saturday – despite being handed a golden opportunity with a penalty in the dying stages.

As with any dropped points at Celtic Park the debate rages on and this week it’s all about whether Kyogo should have been “rested”, should Bitton have played, and why didn’t Josip Juranovic take THAT penalty?

It’s all covered and more in this week’s episode as Tino, Mif and Paddy debate the weekend’s action as well as the more uplifting midweek trip along the M8 to face Hibs, where a 3-1 win returned us all three points.

We also look ahead to another big week as we get set to face Ferencvaros in matchday 4 of the Europa League on Thursday, followed by a trip to Dens Park for the lunchtime kick off against Dundee on Sunday.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Livingston (Sat 30th Oct 2021)

Sat, 30 Oct 2021 16:49:00 -0000

A frustrating draw at Celtic Park today saw us miss the opportunity to hit the top of the table. Did Ange get it wrong by dropping Kyogo? By opting for Abada over Johnston? By restoring Bitton to the midfield. Hindsight’s 20/20 but some big calls and we’ve fallen short once again against an organised, but limited, Livingston.

Thu, 28 Oct 2021 10:05:00 -0000

Celtic are now just 2 points off the top of the table after a thrilling win over Hibs at Easter Road. Celtic blew their opponents well in a scintillating first half performance with goals by Ralston, Carter-Vickers and Kyogo - and in truth it could have been more than 3! An important 3 points and potentially a very important night in the title race as we now look towards Livingston on Saturday and a chance to top the table for the first time in a long time!

Jack O’Macis Makes His Mark | Greek Star Opens His Scoring Account

Mon, 25 Oct 2021 20:54:00 -0000

Gorgios Giakoumakis stole the headlines this weekend, riffling home an impressive volley on his first start for the club to open the scoring against St Johnstone. We’ve waited a while for our new No.7 to make his mark but hopefully this is the first of many goals the Greek striker bags for the club.

Fellow summer signing Josip Juranovic was also on target from the spot to seal a 2-0 win (a scoreline that we’ve now produced across three consecutive fixtures) and the Bhoys should now be full of confidence as they head down the M8 to face Hibs on Wednesday night.

With four wins on the spin Ange’s system seems to have us heading in the right direction, and though we know that improvement is still required in certain areas he has us full of confidence, scoring goals, and winning games. That can only be a good thing.

This week we also pay tribute to Wim Jansen - “The Man Who Stopped The 10” - following the sad news that he’s living with dementia. Although he was only with Celtic for that one season in 1997/98, what a memorable season it was as we finally reclaimed the Scottish league title on a dramatic final day.

Mif, Paddy and Tino all share their stories of that great afternoon against St Johnstone back in May ’98, and offer up their memories of Wim’s greatest day with Celtic.

Jota was star of the show (again) with a brilliant assist and an all round solid performance but notable mention to McGregor, Starfelt and the ever influential Joe Hart who led by example from the back. Momentum is the word of the day and we can now look forward to the return fixture in Hungary in two weeks which gives us a real opportunity to make progress in the group.

Well On Our Way | Celts Win At Motherwell

Tue, 19 Oct 2021 12:06:00 -0000

Celtic recorded back to back away league wins for the first time since who knows when with a comfortable 2-0 win over Motherwell at Fir Park.

Jota was the main man once again and opened the scoring, but ex-Motherwell man David Turnbull stole the headlines with a stunning long range strike to seal the three points.

Ange now feels the team is in a more settled place than at any other time in his reign so far and that's been reflected by a couple of important results in recent weeks. After an indifferent start we've now reached the dizzy heights of 4th place in the Premiership table but it's clear to see that this side still have so much more to offer and hopefully we'll see that play out in the coming weeks.

It's another week to look forward to at Celtic Park with the visits of Ferencvaros in the Europa League first up, followed by St Johnstone on league duty on Saturday.

We're also seeing some of our injured players such as Mikey Johnston return, with suggestions that Juranovic, Julien and Forrest aren't far behind.

All in all things seem to be on the up - long may that continue!

Jota Have Faith | Portuguese Star Grabs Late Winner

Tue, 05 Oct 2021 13:28:00 -0000

Our on-loan Portuguese winger stole the headlines at Pittodrie on Sunday with a late winner which relieves the recent pressure on both his team-mates and on manager Ange Postecoglou.

Since signing on a season long loan deal on deadline day Jota has been one of our most consistent performers during what's been a fairly turbulent time and he could have picked no better time than the dying stages of a nervy game with Aberdeen to grab his first league goal for the club.

It's reported that the club have an option to buy from Benfica for a fee in the region of £6M and from what we've seen so far this would be money well spent. Great technique, a trick or two, and fantastic hair - what more do you want from your winger?!

The 2-1 win over the Dons was absolutely crucial (our first away league victory since a 2-1 win over St Johnstone back on 14th February) given the stuttering league form we've seen in recent weeks and all the more important that it now allows us to reset and refocus with a bit more confidence during this latest international break.

Ange will be desperate to see his internationalists return safe and will following the horrendous run of injuries we've seen recently and will be waiting anxiously on the return of Kyogo and co. towards the end of next week.

Ange himself has shown considerable resilience by persevering with a system that he evidently has complete faith in, and though it may have been easier to take a more pragmatic approach against the likes of Bayer Leverkusen and Aberdeen given the pressure he's been under it's clear that he's determined to do things his way.

If the Celtic board show the patience that he needs and that he deserves then we'll see notable success under the charismatic Australian.

Let's not forget the mess he inherited, and on that basis there's no quick fix here. Give him the time, give him the tools and we'll see the rewards.

Wake Me Up When September Ends | Tough Month For The Hoops

Tue, 28 Sep 2021 10:45:00 -0000

Celtic's form for September makes for grim reading and with Bayer Leverkusen visiting this week in the Europa League there's a likelihood that things may get worse before they start to get better.

This poor form coincides with a horrendous injury list, with James McCarthy and Josip Juranovic the latest to join Callum McGregor, Kyogo Furuhashi, James Forrest, Giorgios Giakoumakis and Chris Julien amongst others on the treatment table, and it's little wonder that Ange and his players have struggled during this time.

There's a bigger picture currently at play at Celtic just now with ongoing confusion regarding our CEO position as well as other backroom fundamentals such as sports science, a head of football, and player recruitment. The latter is the biggest concern and despite a number of new arrivals in the summer window it's now evident that we've fallen way short in terms of depth, and possibly in terms of quality too with some of our new recruits.

In better news captain Callum McGregor has signed an extended 5 year deal that will keep him at the club until summer 2026. He's been a big loss to Ange recently and here's hoping he's back leading the way before too long.

Home Ange Away | Postecoglou Struggling To Correct Away Form

Tue, 21 Sep 2021 12:08:00 -0000

Despite still being in the very early stages of Ange Postecoglou's time at Celtic it seems clear that our away form has already become something of a cause for concern under the new man.

Whilst fully accepting that we were missing key players such as Callum McGregor, Kyogo Furuhashi and James Forrest against Livingston, our 1-0 defeat at the Toni Macaroni Arena was the 6th time across all competitions that we've lost on the road this season.

Possession stats were strongly in our favour once again (at 79% v 21%) but the only stat that really matters in football is the scoreline and we've fallen short there once again.

Paddy, Mif & James took to the mics this week to discuss the weekend result, where we now are with Ange, and the need for this team to find consistency, and quickly!

*There's also a chance to win yourself the Celtic home shirt by answering a very simple trivia question at the end of this week's show. Entries close at midnight on Friday 24th September.

The Final Whistle: Real Betis v Celtic (Thu 16th Sep 2021)

Thu, 16 Sep 2021 19:47:00 -0000

Despite scoring 3 goals in Spain Celtic came out the wrong side of a 7 goal contest v Real Betis tonight at the Estadio Benito Villamarin. An Albian Ajeti strike followed by a Josip Juranovic penalty put us in control early in the game but defensive errors and perhaps a lack of belief led to the hosts scoring 4 goals without reply early into the second half to take charge. Despite this Celtic still found some openings and Ralston gave us late hope with a determined header in the final few minutes but it wasn't to be. To score 3 goals away from home in Europe and come away with nothing is disappointing but looking at the bigger picture this Ange Postecoglou side is very much a work in progress and with key players such as captain Callum McGregor, Kyogo Furuhashi and Liel Abada missing tonight then it was always going to be a tall order. Once these players return and other new signings such as McCarthy, Scales and Giakoumakis find their feet then Celtic will be a very different proposition. The home tie v Betis on 9th December will be one to look forward to and perhaps a more accurate gauge of how far the side has developed by then.

Dom With The Wind | McKay Exits After Just 72 Days

Mon, 13 Sep 2021 12:48:00 -0000

In a move that no one seen coming Celtic announced on Friday that CEO Dominic McKay would be stepping down from his position due to "personal reasons" after just 72 days in the role.

In light of the announcement the club's current Director of Legal & Football Affairs, Michael Nicholson has been appointed to the Board of Celtic plc as acting CEO.

The real reasons for the sudden departure remain a mystery with many suggesting that McKay wasn't given the autonomy to carry out his role effectively, whilst others suggest he didn't have the required skillset in the first place.

What seems clear is that there's much more to run on this story and like everyone with a Celtic persuasion we'll be keeping a close eye on developments.

On the park Ange Postecoglou's men got back to winning ways with a 3-0 win over Ross County thanks to a goal and a Man of the Match contribution from Cameron Carter-Vickers and a double from forgotten striker Albian Ajeti.

The focus now turns to Europa League action with our Group G opener against Real Betis in Seville on Thursday.

Tino, Mif and Paddy took to the mics this week to discuss another topsy turvy week in Celtic-land!

The Team That Ange Built | Rebuild Continues Under Postecoglou

Tue, 31 Aug 2021 13:37:00 -0000

It’s just 6 weeks since Ange Postecoglou took his first competitive game in charge of Celtic in our 1-1 home draw with FC Midtjylland.

In the weeks since then we’ve seen the arrival of some extremely talented players, the exits of some who no longer fit at Celtic, and the implementation of a style of play that we haven’t seen at Celtic Park for some time.

As Ange himself said, there will be bumps on the road along the way, and we’ve seen that already, but the turnaround we’ve seen in such a short space of time has been remarkable to date and it bodes very well for our future under his leadership.

He’s shown he has the character, integrity and experience to succeed at a club like ours and there’s no one we’d rather have leading the way.

We now enter the international break and with the transfer window closing this week we’ll know who’s fully committed to the season ahead by the time we return against Ross County on 11th September.

At that stage we’ll then have a chance to truly see the team that Ange has built. (Version 1.0)

With some exciting games coming up in our Europa League group and a title to be won back it’s shaping up to be a rollercoaster of a season. With Ange in the driving seat however I think there'll be more ups than downs!

Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:49:00 -0000

Ange takes his new look Celtic to Ibrox for the opening Glasgow Derby of the season this Sunday and will be looking for a big result as we head in to the international break. Celtic have shown their quality in an attacking sense recently and we’ll be hoping for more of the same for Kyogo and co. This weekend. Tino, James and Paddy give their thoughts on everything we can expect from the fixture.

The Final Whistle: AZ Alkmaar v Celtic (Thu 26th Aug 2021)

Thu, 26 Aug 2021 21:07:00 -0000

Celtic go through to the Europa League group stages after overcoming a tough test v AZ Alkmaar in The Netherlands. Defensive errors were nearly our downfall on the night but ultimately Kyogo’s earlier strike was enough in the end and we can now look forward to European football until Christmas at least.

We Don’t Stop | The Ange Train Picks Up Pace

Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:51:00 -0000

Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic are on a 6 game winning streak and with 24 goals scored and just 4 conceded in that time momentum is well and truly with the Hoops going into another important week.

First up is AZ Alkmaar in The Netherlands on Thursday night before a midday trip across the city to face rangers in the Glasgow Derby.

As Ange himself said "We Don't Stop" and knows the time for him and the Bhoys to step up to this latest challenge.

Both games will provide a strong indication of just how far this Celtic side have come in such a short space of time and players and fans alike will have a quiet confidence about them given what we’ve witnessed in recent weeks.

Paddy, Mif and James discuss all of the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v St Mirren - (Sat 21st Aug 2021)

Sat, 21 Aug 2021 16:33:00 -0000

Celtic were in flying form as they hammered 6 past The Buddies without reply! David Turnbull was the hat-trick hero with Liel Abada (x2) and Odsonne Edouard also on the scoresheet. That’s now 20 goals in the last 5 games (with only 2 conceded) as Ange Postecoglou’s system continues to take shape.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v AZ Alkmaar (Wed 18th Aug 2021)

Wed, 18 Aug 2021 22:16:00 -0000

Celtic claimed a 2-0 win tonight in the first league of the Europa League Play-Off with goals from Kyogo Furuhashi (who else!) and James Forrest (kinda!). Yes we rode our luck at times but there’s no doubt Ange is getting a tune out of this squad with the players clearly responding to his system. Special credit to Tony Ralston who was excellent tonight - again!

”Attack Wins You Games, Defence Wins You Titles” - Sir Alex Ferguson

Tue, 17 Aug 2021 12:00:00 -0000

In an attacking sense Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic are a joy to watch and 16 goals in 4 games tells you that’s the case.

Free flowing, attacking football is the order of the day under our new man. However, cheap goals and lapses in defence have also been a factor in his early reign so far – most recently the 2 goals conceded to Hearts – and this must be addressed if Celtic are to have a reasonable chance of success this season.

The quote that is the title of this episode is attributed to Alex Ferguson, who knows all there is to know about winning titles.

Celtic – and more specifically the board – would do well to pay attention to this and to ensure that Ange’s defence is strengthened significantly in the 2 weeks that remain of this transfer window.

If they do deliver for Ange, then we fully expect Ange to deliver for us!

The Final Whistle: Celtic v Hearts (Sun 15th Aug 2021)

Sun, 15 Aug 2021 16:46:00 -0000

Celtic seen off Hearts 3-2 in the Premier Sports League Cup this afternoon with goals from Edouard, Welsh and Kyogo. The scoreline probably isn’t a fair reflection on Celtic’s dominance on the day but ultimately the game’s about scoring goals and it ended up a bit neater in the end than it should have been. However cup football’s all about going through and that’s what’s been accomplished this afternoon. Celtic now face Raith Rovers at home in the quarter finals as Ange seeks out his first trophy as Celtic manager.

Angeball Has Landed | It’s Raining Goals At Celtic Park

Tue, 10 Aug 2021 13:30:00 -0000

Ange Postecoglou is less than two months in the door but this weekend's hammering of Dundee finally saw us witness the kind of swashbuckling football we've been promised under him, and if this is a sign of things to come then we could be in for a big season under our new man.

Star of the show was hat-trick hero Kyogo Furuhashi who set Celtic Park alight with his movement, his pace, and his finishing but closely behind was Ryan Christie who showed exactly what he can offer when he's at the top of his game.

We'll face tougher opponents than Dundee in the week's ahead but the indications are there that the players are now responding to Ange's coaching in a system that should only get better with time.

Joe Hart and James McCarthy put pen to paper this week adding some much needed leadership and experience to the dressing room and if Ange can get the two or three other signings he's after then the pieces of the puzzle could all start to fall in to place very quickly for him.

We really shouldn't be getting carried away, but where's the fun in that?! If you're looking for us we'll be some place up near the disco lights!

The Final Whistle: FK Jablonec v Celtic (Thu 5th Aug 2021)

Thu, 05 Aug 2021 18:53:00 -0000

Ange Postecoglue chalked up his first win as Celtic Manager as a relatively mixed performance resulted in a 4-2 win against FK Jablonec at the Stadion Strelnice. Kyogo Furuhashi made his first start for the club and also got his first goal with a classy finish and the Japanese international can be pleased with his night’s work. Joe Hart also made his debut between the sticks and he’ll be frustrated at the nature of the goals we conceded, even though I think he can be absolved of blame for both. We now face the Czech’s at a full Celtic Park next Thursday and it should (should!) be a comfortable win back in Glasgow to set up a Europa League play off with AZ Alkmaar.

The Time is Now | New Signings Required For The Ange Revolution

Mon, 02 Aug 2021 16:20:00 -0000

It's been a week to forget for Celtic as Ange Postecoglou still searches for his first win after three competitive fixtures.

Hearts inflicted a 2-1 defeat on Saturday night following an identical scoreline against FC Midtjylland during the week, and this team must learn quickly to capitalise on the notable possession they've held in each of their fixtures so far.

We're now in August yet only three senior additions have been made to the squad in the shape of Liel Abada, Carl Starfelt & Kyogo Furohashi, with the latter two featuring against Hearts having barely met their new team-mates.

All should go on to have an impact at the club, but they can't do it alone and they'll be hoping to be joined by several new colleagues in the Lennoxtown cafeteria ASAFP if we're to give ourselves a fighting chance of any success this year.

Frustratingly Starfelt and Furohashi only appeared following our Champions League exit and the time for action is now in terms of the board supplying Ange with the additional signings he clearly needs. The last few days of August could already be too late as far as our aspirations for the season are concerned!

Next up, a Europa League qualifier away to Jablonec of the Czech Republic on Thursday followed by the visit of newly promoted Dundee at Celtic Park on Sunday where 24,000 fans will be hoping for a quick turnaround in our early season fortunes.

The Final Whistle: Hearts v Celtic (Sat 31st July 2021)

Sat, 31 Jul 2021 22:10:00 -0000

Ange Postecoglou's first league game ended in defeat as Celtic went down 2-1 at Tynecastle in a game that, like against FC Midtjylland, looked there for the taking. If we continue with the personnel we have, this is what we’ll get and it’s over to Dom McKay and co. to provide re-enforcements immediately – otherwise, Ange will be unable to carry out his role effectively. It’s as simple as that. An early goal for ex-Celt Gary Mackay-Steven had us up against it but an impressive equaliser from Ralston early in the second half saw us take control. Then when it looked like we were the more likely to score, it was Hearts who stole the points with a late John Souttar header. It’s still unclear where Scott Bain was at that moment in time. We look very much a work in progress at this early stage, but the progress must come quicker than we’ve seen so far. Next up, another key game as we face FK Jablonec in a Europa League qualifier on Thursday.

The Final Whistle: FC Midtjylland v Celtic (Wed 28th July 2021)

Wed, 28 Jul 2021 20:59:00 -0000

Celtic limped out of the Champions League at an early stage yet again with a weak performance against a limited Danish side tonight at the MCH Arena. Despite taking the lead with a brilliant Callum McGregor volley that was about as good as it got for us on the night and it gradually went from bad to worse as we gave up a couple of cheap goals to ultimately lose out after Extra Time. If truth be told it's hard to think of a single chance we created in the extra time and that in itself has to be a big concern for the manager. Ange is absolved from blame given what he's inherited and to have to go into such an important game with such an inexperienced back four, and with such poor goalkeeping options is criminal. However there's now a job to be done ahead of our league opener this weekend and no time to feel sorry for ourselves. If it's a silver lining of sorts the board must see the deficiencies of our squad and must act NOW to give Ange a fighting chance.

Once Bitton, Twice Shy | Euro Qualifier Frustration

Tue, 27 Jul 2021 15:36:00 -0000

Celtic snatched a draw from the jaws of victory in Ange Postecoglou’s first competitive game as a moment of madness from Nir Bitton reduced us to 10-men late in the first half against FC Midtjylland.

Unfortunately it’s not the first time we’ve seen this from the experienced international and it was all the more frustrating with his sending off coming at a spell in the game when we were in the ascendency having taking the lead through debutant Liel Abada.

In many ways it felt like a lost opportunity, however there were plenty of positives to take from the game including the debut from Abada, the return of the real Ryan Christie, and the emergence of young Dane Murray, and it’s all to play for as we head to Denmark for the return leg this week.

We can also look forward to the long awaited arrival of Carl Starfelt and Kyogo Furohashi in the coming days whilst we also bid farewell to Quadruple Treble winner Kris Ajer and a wee guy called Marian Shved as the revolving door at Celtic Park continues to spin.

If you were ever in any doubt about our defensive frailties (and if so where have you been?!) then this was highlighted further in the heavy friendly defeat by West Ham, and Ange must be given re-enforcements in these areas if he’s to have any chance of success.

Even this early in the season it’s a hugely important week ahead for him and his squad as they try to navigate the second leg against the Danes as well as a tricky opening league fixture against Hearts at Tynecastle.

In his own words Ange has said that this is a massive challenge but one he’s come into with his eyes wide open and he says it’s exactly why he does what he does!

He continues to impress and we’ll be backing him all the way, this week and beyond.

The Final Whistle: Celtic v FC Midtjylland (Tue 20th July 2021)

Tue, 20 Jul 2021 22:55:00 -0000

Match Reaction live from Celtic Park as Celtic draw 1-1 with FC Midtjylland in Ange Postecoglou's first competitive game as manager. A goal by Liel Abada on his competitive debut put the Hoops ahead in the tie but a couple of moments of madness by Nir Bitton reduced Celtic to 10 men going into the break. Midyjytlland then had a man of their own sent off before grabbing an equaliser which was generally against the run of play, with Barkas looking particularly suspect for this one. Top men on the night were Ryan Christie, Ismaela Soro and Callum McGregor, with the latter picking up the official Man of the Match award. Great to be back at Celtic Park and all to play for now in next week's trip to Denmark.

Another Day in Paradise | The Long Awaited Return To Celtic Park

Tue, 20 Jul 2021 12:34:00 -0000

After an incredible delay of 501 days, fans will finally be allowed to return to Celtic Park for competitive action in this week’s Champions League qualifier against FC Midtjylland.

It’ll be an emotional and exciting night for the 9,000 fans in attendance who’ll be roaring the Bhoys on for the first time since a 5-0 victory v St Mirren way back on 7th March 2020.

Yes Ange would have liked more time to work with the squad, and yes he would have liked more new signings on board, but don’t underestimate how focused and determined he and new captain Callum McGregor will be as they look to steer the team through a difficult opening fixture.

New Bhoys Kyogo Furuhashi and Liel Abada haven’t made the squad for this one but we look at the impact they can have on the team as Ange strives to add some quality for the challenges that await him this season.

This week we also spoke with David Turnbull, Liel Abada and B Team Manager Tommy McIntyre, who each provided some insight into how the season is shaping up from their point of view.

It’s a busy show with plenty of talking points but everything else aside we're now fully behind Ange and the Bhoys as the competitive action finally gets underway back at Celtic Park!

Time to Shine | Big Opportunity For Young Celts

Tue, 13 Jul 2021 14:30:00 -0000

Despite appearances from recognised senior players such as Callum McGregor, Odsonne Edouard and Albian Ajeti across the last couple of games, our first two pre-season fixtures have been top-heavy with talented young players from the club’s development squad.

The likes of Karamoko Dembele, Adam Montgomery and Ewan Henderson are well known to many, whilst others such as Owan Moffat, Leo Hjelde and Dane Murray have yet to come to prominence.

However for all of these youngsters, there will never be a better opportunity to make the grade at Celtic. Many are at the cross-roads of their Celtic careers and now is their time to shine.

The senior players will return in numbers of course for the next couple of friendlies and they should (I repeat should!) be joined by several new signings in the coming weeks, but such is the state of flux at the club at this time then the door is open for any youngster who impresses Ange in the coming weeks.

As fans we know that first team ready signings are an absolute must as we look to re-build, and this should be the club’s priority at this time. The manager must be supported with new signings imminently.

However, as a fan base we also love nothing more than seeing one of our own make the grade and this could be the opportunity for several of our youngsters to stake their claim for a place in Ange’s new look Celtic.

In this week’s episode we also review the pre-season games so far, the instant changes that Ange has implemented, and look ahead at what we can expect in the coming games as we prepare for our forthcoming UCL qualifier with FC Midjytlland.

Mic and Angelos | An Insight Into Ange’s Ways

Tue, 06 Jul 2021 14:12:00 -0000

Ange took to the mic at Lennoxtown last week and gave us a small insight into his training ground methods and the demands he’ll be putting on his players.

The mic’d up footage was impressive to see and with each passing day Ange continues to win over the doubters as he gets down to the hard work of preparing for the season ahead.

Ultimately he’ll be judged by results on the park but so far, so good.

Described by his former assistant Arthur Papas as someone who is “obsessed by his work” it seems clear that Ange knows what he wants and with the right backing then he’ll be confident of achieving it.

The players will now be based in their pre-season training camp in Wales for the next 10 days or so and with two friendly games due to take place there (v Sheffield Wednesday & Charlton Athletic) we’ll get a first glimpse of what an Ange Postecoglou Celtic team looks like.

New Bhoys Liam Shaw & Osaze Uroghide will be looking to make an impression as well as the much debated Leigh Griffiths as we continue our preparation for the competitive kick off which is now just two weeks away!

Football Without the Fans (Media) is Nothing

Tue, 29 Jun 2021 15:03:00 -0000

Ange Postecoglou and Dom McKay gave their first official press conferences as Celtic Manager and CEO on Friday and as impressive as their answers were much of the focus since has been on the input and the value of Fan Media (such as ourselves) at such an event.

There’s been a notable backlash from the mainstream media itself, which is perhaps no huge surprise, but also from some fans of the club, which is a bit more disappointing to see.

We go big on the topic on this week’s episode and fight the corner for the concept of Fan Media and the value that it can add to the Celtic media space.

Like a lot of things in life the media you consume is a choice. If you like what the Fan Media groups are doing and that’s a good fit for you then that’s great. And if you don’t, and would rather seek an alternative media source, then that too is fine. Find what work’s best for you. No abuse necessary.

That aside we take some time to cover some of the strong and encouraging statements made by Ange and Dom McKay and what they could mean for the club and the fans in the season ahead.

Genuine optimism seems to be slowly (but surely) returning to the club. Here’s hoping we’re at the dawn of an exciting new era.

Back To The Future | Are Celtic Putting The Old Band Back Together?

Tue, 22 Jun 2021 15:30:00 -0000

With rumours abound that ex-manager Gordon Strachan and ex-player Eric Sviatchenko may be returning to the club it seems that Celtic are taking a somewhat unorthodox approach to the new “shared vision” that Dom McKay and Ange Postecoglou have for modernising the club.

Like so much of what we’ve seen in recent months it may just be paper/online talk but it’s done little to give confidence to the fans so desperate for a fresh start given what we witnessed last season.

Ange has a job on his hands assessing the current squad as well as recruiting as effectively as possible, and whether it’s Gordon Strachan or someone else there’s no doubt he needs assistance to do so in the short few weeks between now and the first competitive game of the season.

By and large it feels like the fans will be giving Ange their full backing. It’s important that the club do the same.

Will the Post-Man Deliver? Ange Postecoglou Named New Celtic Manager

Mon, 14 Jun 2021 14:07:00 -0000

Just a short 106 days in the making and Celtic have finally named Ange Postecoglou as the man to take us forward into a new era for the club.

With a to-do list the length of the Gold Coast the fans will be hoping he gets off to a flier as he sets out to get us back on track following last season’s disappointments.

A squad overhaul will be top of the list and regardless how talented Ange may be, much of his success will depend on how well he’s backed, and how effective his new signings will be in the season ahead.

Whether you agree with his appointment or not he’s here now and we’ll be backing him all the way as we look to get reclaim the league title and to restore our credibility on the European stage.

Tino, Mif & James took to the mics this week to discuss what lies in store for our new man.

In The Post | Ange Postecoglou To Take The Reins?

Tue, 08 Jun 2021 15:09:00 -0000

With just 10 days until pre-season and despite patter such as "at an advanced stage" and "very shortly" flying about since last week, we still (at time of recording) find ourselves without a new manager.

However, all roads point firmly towards Ange Postecoglou as being the man to take the job with reports this week claiming that personal terms have been verbally agreed (where have we heard that before!) and that he should be jetting in to Glasgow this week ahead of his new role.

A period of quarantine awaits him on arrival, as well as some doubt over his UEFA coaching papers, but that aside what else could possibly go wrong.....?

We also debate some poorly timed comments from Neil Lennon, discuss the impending exits of high profile players Kris Ajer & Odsonne Edouard, and take a glance towards the Euros and the roles some of our players will play in this summer's tournament.

Also, how dare Celtic launch such a beautiful new away kit while we're so raging!

Angie Gave Us James McGrory & Paul McStay

Mon, 31 May 2021 15:03:00 -0000

They say a week's a long time in football and it's fair to say that a lot has happened in Celtic world in the 7 days since our last episode.

Eddie Howe is now yesterday's man as the "done deal" that everyone at the club was so relaxed about (apparently) has now come un-done, leaving us with no permanent manager to speak of for the 14th consecutive week! Consistent if nothing else!

But fret not Celtic fans as big Angie Postecoglou has been biding his time in the J-League waiting for the call, and seems set to come to our rescue in the coming days. And here's us thinking we were in trouble for a minute too.

Not many of us will have had much information on the 55 year old Australian before Friday, but thanks to twitter and our mate's brother in Melbourne we too now have a very sketchy knowledge of the man destined to take us back to the very top.

Tino, Paddy & James took to the mics this week to try and make some sense of the last few days.

Let’s Get Eddie to Rumble

Tue, 25 May 2021 16:03:00 -0000

Unless the whole thing’s just been a very, very elaborate hoax it now looks like Eddie Howe will be named as our new Head Coach in the coming days (or by 1st June at the absolute latest) and all just a short 13 weeks or so since Neil Lennon left the club!

With Bournemouth consigned to the EFL Championship for another season this seems to have signalled the go-ahead for Celtic to now also secure Howe’s preferred coaching team as he sets the wheels in motion for the sizeable rebuilding job that lies ahead.

Solid recruitment will be high up on the to-do list for the new man, with uncertainty in the air over what current players will be in place for the project, and on what calibre of talent he'll be able to bring in.

The Euros await for David Turnbull and a number of his team-mates in the coming weeks and though the young midfielder will play a key role in the revolution it’s less obvious who will join him for the new season.

With fans also returning to stadiums (stadia?) around the UK we look back at the last game we each experienced at Celtic Park and Mif also gets all glassy eyed with his tales of Seville as we mark 18 years since that day back on 21st of May 2003.

As One Door Closes | Drawing A Line Under The Season That Was

Tue, 18 May 2021 15:03:00 -0000

It's hard to tell if Saturday's game against Hibs was some sort of final testimonial for Broony, such was the lack of notable action on display, however what we do know for sure is that we can now finally close the door on the riot of a season that was 2020/21.

In theory this should now open the door to the exciting possibilities of what next season may bring but we remain as much in the dark today as we were when Lenny left the building all those weeks ago.

Maybe this week will be the week though eh...! (But then again, maybe not).

They say all you get from looking back is a sore neck, but for this week's episode, and for one last time, we take a look at where it all went wrong this season and what the main issues were for this group of players (*Spoiler Alert: We have no concrete answer to this question!).

Moving forward we'll strive to keep it positive (we promise!) as we await news on what the next version of Celtic will look like.

We also cover some of the key dates that await Celtic in terms of European and League fixtures for 2021/22 as they players now break up until mid-June. Which ones will be returning under the new regime though is anyone's guess.

Match Reaction: Celtic v Hibs (Sat 15th May 2021)

Sat, 15 May 2021 15:48:00 -0000

We've made it lads. It's finally over!

After the worst season in recent history we can finally bring the shutters down on season 2020/21 and look ahead to whatever the future will bring.

The transition starts now with long serving skipper Scott Brown having played his final 90 minutes for the club and he goes with everyone's thanks and best wishes after a phenomenal 14 years at the club.

The question remains over who else has played their last for the club but with 4 loanees returning to their parent clubs and big questions over the futures of Edouard, Ajer and Christie to name but a few then the starting line-up for our next competitive fixture will be markedly different from the one we seen today.

Tino & Mif took to the mic to discuss today's game and the wider picture at this stage.

Match Reaction: Celtic v St Johnstone (Wed 12th May 2021)

Thu, 13 May 2021 12:30:00 -0000

Celtic took on Scottish Cup finalists St Johnstone in our final home game of the season - and more poignantly the final home game that captain Scott Brown will play for the club after 14 years at Celtic Park.

He himself played a key role in an impressive second goal with an assist for Odsonne Edouard with the Bhoys eventually running out as 4-0 winners.

Adam Montgomery also made an impressive debut at left back, with Karamoke Dembele scoring his first goal for the club - but will it be his last?

Tino & Jim took to the mics shortly after the game to cover the key talking points.

Mif & Paddy’s Road to Nowhere

Tue, 11 May 2021 15:23:00 -0000

Mif & Paddy were in the hot-seat this week which has given us an absolute tap-in in terms of the title of this week's show!

If only getting a new manager in was just as easy but that one continues to rumble on as we await any sort of concrete news on who'll be taking the reins next season.

We did hear from the club via email this week (or at least some of us did) but that communication can be summarised somewhere along the lines of "Nothing to see here, as you were, we're on the case though, Season Ticket renewals are on their way!".

The fans are desperate for some good news and though the rumblings and rumours continue, its hard to get in any way optimistic about what lies in store next season until we hear something official.

In case you forgot (or have given up on it) we also have a couple of games to go of this season, but fret not as that will all be done and dusted in a matter of days! We're on the home straight!

Tue, 04 May 2021 15:24:00 -0000

We’re getting fed up covering the same old ground when it comes to Celtic’s lack of action at the moment – and we’re pretty sure you’re all fed up hearing it.

So, this week we decided to take the show in a different direction and put it to our followers on twitter (@CeltExchange) to ask them what they would like us to cover.

We received a number of great responses and suggestions and so Tino, Mif & Chris took the time to cover them off in some detail in this latest episode. Some really interesting topics and debates which form the cornerstone of this recording.

We also covered Sunday’s final Glasgow Derby of the season (we had to!) but don’t let that put you off.

Match Reaction: Celtic v Rangers (Sun 2nd May 2021)

Sun, 02 May 2021 18:37:00 -0000

The shutters can’t come down quickly enough on this season as Celtic turned in another performance similar to so many others that have gone before it – plenty of possession, plenty of chances, zero points!

There are some players who we know for sure won’t be here next season, and some others who already seem to have one foot out the door, but in truth of those who’ll remain there’s only a handful that you’d want the new manager to be working with as we look to get back on track next season.

The announcement of a new manager/head coach can’t come soon enough, however the workload for the incoming coaching team looking more ominous with each passing performance.

Before the fans can have a well earned lie down however there’s still two league games to be played out against St Johnstone and Hibs. We cannae wait!

"Light at the end of the tunnel? We don't even have a tunnel? We don't even know where the tunnel is?"

Tino & Mif took to the mics shortly after today’s final whistle.

The Sound of Silence | All Quiet Regarding New Manager

Tue, 27 Apr 2021 15:10:00 -0000

It’s now almost 9 weeks since Neil Lennon left the building at Celtic Park and the silence grows louder by the day.

With Season Ticket renewals on the horizon the cynics amongst us predict that we’ll hear news of our new Head Coach sooner rather than later, but either way some form of communication is needed as we as a fanbase grow increasingly anxious ahead of next season.

On the park there’s little to get excited about with just three matches remaining before we bring the shutters down on this ridiculous season against Hibs on the 15th of May.

Before then we face a Rangers side who’ve shown their own fragility in recent days, which begs the question of just how well they would have responded to any sort of credible title challenge this season had we managed to get our act together.

Hang tight folks, the season’s nearly over, we promise!

Match Reaction: Celtic v Aberdeen (Wed 21st April 2021)

Wed, 21 Apr 2021 22:42:00 -0000

Celtic played out a game tonight against Aberdeen which has been typical of so many of our games this season. It included the concession of a set piece goal, the lions share of possession, a failure to convert, and ultimately a failure to take all three points. A late Leigh Griffiths goal salvaged a point for Celtic and we were also treated to a rare glimpse of Karamoko Dembele but there was very little to get excited about apart from that. Tino & Mif took to the mics for a wee blether after the game! #TheCelticExchange Available at @ParadisePods | https://bit.ly/3kAEZuU Or by searching "The Celtic Exchange" wherever you listen ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instagram: @thecelticexchangepodcast Twitter: @CeltExchange Sponsored by TEN10 Podcasts More Celtic Podcasts @ https://www.ten10podcasts.com/paradise-podcasts

The Only Way is Up | Prep For New Season Starts Here

Wed, 21 Apr 2021 10:26:00 -0000

Celtic turned in as bad a performance as they’ve produced all season as their Scottish Cup defence fizzled out this weekend at Ibrox.

Despite the poor display there were clear cut chances to make a contest of it but a mixture of poor finishing and an overall lack of belief led to a 2-0 win that our opponents barely had to break sweat for.

In truth that lack of belief has been the story of our season and a serious shift in mindset is required if we’re to make any sort of recovery in the season ahead.

Prep for 2021/22 is now finally underway with Dominic McKay officially in the building, but of more concern is the ongoing lack of action regarding who will be in the dugout next season – as well as what players they’ll have to work with!

The hard work starts here and we now rely on those in charge make the right calls in the weeks ahead as we look to restore credibility.

Given the season we've had to endure it can only get better from here....can't it?!

Match Reaction: Celtic v Rangers (Sun 18th April 2021)

Sun, 18 Apr 2021 18:52:00 -0000

Celtic had a chance to salvage something from what's been a woeful season so far but failed miserably by giving up their Scottish Cup in a timid display at Ibrox. The big news pre-match was that James Forrest had failed to make the starting line-up but in truth it likely wouldn't have had a huge bearing on the final outcome as the team showed a fragility that's been all too evident this season. Despite the poor performance Celtic actually created the more clear cut chances over the 90mins - including a poor Odsonne Edouard penalty - but overall there can be no complaints as this 2020/21 season finally fizzled out. However as Yazz (ask your dad!) once famously said, The Only Way is Up and all eyes are now on incoming CEO Dominic McKay who starts his job in earnest tomorrow morning. A new Head Coach and Director of Football must surely be high up on the to-do list, closely followed by managing a huge squad overhaul in the coming weeks. Easy days! #TheCelticExchange Available at @ParadisePods | https://bit.ly/3kAEZuU Or by searching "The Celtic Exchange" wherever you listen ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instagram: @thecelticexchangepodcast Twitter: @CeltExchange Sponsored by TEN10 Podcasts More Celtic Podcasts @ https://www.ten10podcasts.com/paradise-podcasts

J.K Strolling | John Kennedy Continues To Impress

Mon, 12 Apr 2021 12:31:00 -0000

Despite frenzied speculation this time last week Celtic seem no further forward in their quest to name a new Head Coach, with the Eddie Howe chat cooling off somewhat over the last 7 days or so.

This hasn’t had any negative impact on what John Kennedy and the players are doing however as they recorded their biggest win of the league campaign with an impressive 6-0 hammering of Livingston.

So is The John Kennedy Effect beginning to have an impact on the players now that he’s calling the shots?

And should he be considered for the role on a full-time basis if he continues to impress?

On the player front James Forrest’s comeback continues and Moi Elyounoussi also continued his recent good form with both playing their part in a result and performance which sets the Bhoys up well for next week’s visit to Ibrox for the Scottish Cup 4th round fixture.

Match Reaction: Celtic v Livingston (Sat 10th April 2021)

Sat, 10 Apr 2021 18:28:00 -0000

Welcome back Celtic. Where have you been? Celtic firmly clicked into gear this afternoon with an impressive performance against Livingston in our first league fixture after the split. Though there's little at stake in terms of the league, an important Scottish Cup tie with Rangers awaits next weekend and John Kennedy's players will be brimming with confidence after a clinic display at Celtic Park. Celtic were in full control from the first whistle and gave the kind of performance that's been missing all too often this season. Returning winger James Forrest continued to show us what we've been missing with another solid performance which included the opening goal, though there was cause for concern with him having to leave the field of play early with a tight hamstring. Moi Elyounoussi also showed what he's capable of and many fans will be hopeful that Celtic can keep a hold of the talented Norwegian for next season. Tino and Sinky took to the mics shortly after the final whistle to discuss all of the key talking points. #TheCelticExchange Available at @ParadisePods | https://bit.ly/3kAEZuU Or by searching "The Celtic Exchange" wherever you listen ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instagram: @thecelticexchangepodcast Twitter: @CeltExchange Sponsored by TEN10 Podcasts More Celtic Podcasts @ https://www.ten10podcasts.com/paradise-podcasts

Howe You Like Me Now? Eddie Howe to be Appointed New Manager?

Mon, 05 Apr 2021 13:15:00 -0000

Though nothing had yet been confirmed when we took to the mics for this week’s recording all signs seem to point towards Eddie Howe being named Celtic’s new Head Coach in the coming days.

So is the ex-Bournemouth hero the man to take the club forward and manage the substantial squad overhaul that awaits this summer? And can he handle the undoubted pressure that comes with managing in Glasgow’s footballing bubble?

John Kennedy remains in charge for now and oversaw a comfortable Scottish Cup win over Falkirk which will now see us face rangers in the Scottish Cup Fourth Round in a couple of weeks’ time.

A further plus was the return of experienced winger James Forrest who got on the scoresheet in an impressive all round performance – his first start since September 2020!

Dermot O’Nearly | Desmond To Confirm New Manager?

Tue, 30 Mar 2021 17:18:00 -0000

Dermot Desmond came out via the club website this week to clarify matters for the fans around the ongoing managerial situation. In truth however, a lot of words were used to say very little, with the principal shareholder leaving much of his statement open to interpretation. So is an announcement imminent?

Almost 5 weeks have now passed since Neil Lennon left the building yet we seem to be no further on in our search for his replacement.

Eddie Howe, Roy Keane and Enzo Maresca remain amongst the bookie’s favourites for the job, though all three (as well as countless others!) continue to divide the opinions of the fans.

With Season Ticket renewals on the horizon we’ll surely (surely!) hear some news on this soon.

It also remains to be seen whether a Director of Football will accompany that appointment with no official confirmation one way or another from the club on whether they intend to implement that model.

Amongst all this club captain Scott Brown also confirmed the rumours that this will be his last in the Hoops ahead of a move to Aberdeen as player/coach as he leaves with an incredible trophy haul of 22 (and counting!) from his 14 years at the club.

Tino, Mif & Chris cover the above and more in this week’s episode of The Celtic Exchange.

Harkin up the Wrong Tree? Celtic to Appoint Director of Football?

Tue, 23 Mar 2021 17:49:00 -0000

Rumours have intensified that Celtic are about to appoint Man City’s Fergal Harkin as our new Director of Football.

Hot on the heels of that is the suggestion that City’s U23 coach Enzo Maresca will then join him to take up the role of Head Coach.

But are these the kind of appointments that the fans are hoping for and expecting at this time?

The right men to get us back on track?

We cover this as well as the fallout from the weekend’s Glasgow Derby as John Kennedy took his third game in charge as interim manager.

An improved performance no doubt but a similar pattern in terms of not taking all 3 points.

Take a Walk on the Wilder Side | Chris Wilder Linked With Managers Job

Tue, 16 Mar 2021 16:09:00 -0000

With no official word coming out on who’ll be stepping into the Manager/head Coach role for next season, speculation has been rife with dozens of names doing the rounds in recent weeks.

Having just left Sheffield United, Chris Wilder has been heavily linked and shot to the top of the bookie’s favourite list this week, but is this just a case of 2 + 2 = 37.

We discuss the possibilities of Wilder and of course our old pal Roy Keane amongst others, as the fans continue to speculate over who will lead the charge for next season.

We also discuss John Kennedy’s first Glasgow derby win as a manager, which is taking place this Sunday, but should a guard of honour be given to our Glasgow rivals ahead of the game? Our former manager Brendan Rodgers thinks we should – our esteemed panel however we’re slightly at odds with that.

Special Episode: Exclusive Interview with Anthony Joseph | Sky Sports News

Fri, 12 Mar 2021 21:29:00 -0000

The world of football media moves at an incredible pace these days and with news breaking as quickly as it does at times it pays to know who the journalists with the breaking stories are.

Once such journalist is Anthony Joseph, News Editor at Sky Sports News, and Anthony very kindly gave up some of his time this week to share some stories and to provide some insight into how that media space is evolving.

As an avid Celtic fan himself Anthony also went into detail with his thoughts on modern day Celtic and on the changes we could see in the weeks and months ahead.

It’s a thoroughly enjoyable listen and one which gives an interesting perspective on both Celtic and on the media world from the other side of the news desk.

Anthony can be found on twitter @AnthonyRJoseph and we’d love you to provide your feedback and join the debate with us @CeltExchange

Nothing Lasts Forever | Change Ahead At Celtic

Mon, 08 Mar 2021 19:35:00 -0000

As the old saying goes, the only constant thing in life is change.

And in the context of Celtic we now face the most notable period of change in the last decade, as we get used to the strange feeling of no longer being the holders of the Scottish league title.

In the weeks and months ahead players will change, coaches will change, and even the boardroom will change as the club look to reclaim their place at the top of Scottish football.

This season is all but gone now and no amount of looking back can do anything about that, but what's important now is what we do moving forward.

Big decisions lie ahead in a number of areas but just how big is the rebuild? Will solid recruitment along with a proven head coach be enough, or is the job much bigger than that?

We debate the scale of the rebuilding job in this week's episode.

Special Episode: John Kennedy | Fan Media Event

Sat, 06 Mar 2021 13:58:00 -0000

Along with several other high profile members of the Celtic fan media space we were invited by the club to attend an exclusive event this week with interim manager John Kennedy and with David Turnbull.

Here we play the full uninterrupted audio of John Kennedy’s responses and what we think provides an extremely interesting insight into how he operates as a coach.

Regardless what you think of his ongoing role at the club now, and in the future, this is a window into John Kennedy that most of us won’t have seen up until now and is something that most genuine football fans will enjoy.

Night is Darkest Just Before the Dom | A New Era Beckons At Celtic Park

Mon, 01 Mar 2021 17:51:00 -0000

In what many will agree was a long overdue move, Neil Lennon and Celtic finally parted ways this week, bringing to an end an association of 20+ years.

It signals the end of one particular chapter for the club, but should also see the beginning of another as we approach one of the most important crossroads in our modern history.

We talk CEO’s, DOF’s, MOTM’s & WTF’s in this week’s acronym filled episode.

Special Episode: Neil Lennon - The End of the Thunder

Wed, 24 Feb 2021 20:58:00 -0000

Celtic announced this morning that Neil Lennon had resigned his position as Manager of Celtic, bringing to an end a professional association with the club going back over 20 years. For many this announcement has come several months too late however in what was one of the biggest season’s in the club’s modern history. Mif and Tino were joined by Alan Stubbs to reflect on Neil Lennon’s time at the club, where it went wrong, and what next for this Celtic side. #TheCelticExchange ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instagram: @thecelticexchangepodcast Twitter: @CeltExchange Sponsored by TEN10 Podcasts More Celtic Podcasts: https://www.ten10podcasts.com/celtic-podcasts

Out For The County | Celts Defeated by Highlanders, Again!

Mon, 22 Feb 2021 21:14:00 -0000

Ross County added to their League Cup win at Celtic park in November with a 1-0 League win on Sunday night to condemn Celtic to their 4th League defeat of the season.

You can add those 4 defeats to the 7 draws from our 30 games so far for a total of 26 points dropped (with 8 games still to go!)

Top flight football managers don't survive this kind of form (a 50% strike rate of 6 wins in 12 from 2021 alone!) but somehow Neil Lennon does?

Is there a reason for this that we just don't know? Is there something behind the scenes that would explain the seemingly inexplicable that we've witnessed at times this season?

Trying to make sense of the non-sense this week are Tino, Mif and Chris who took to the mics less than 24hours after that defeat in the Highlands.

A cathartic 45 minutes if nothing else!

Where does it stop?! Celtic hit a new low in the Highlands tonight as the 5 game winning run came to a shuddering halt with a woeful 1-0 defeat at the hands of Ross Country. A lack of quality, a lack of urgency, a lack of belief and a lack of ideas all conspired to bring us the latest instalment of this shambolic season. Tino and Mif took to the mics on the final whistle to try make sense of it all. Unsuccessfully. #TheCelticExchange ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Instagram: @thecelticexchangepodcast Twitter: @CeltExchange Sponsored by TEN10 Podcasts More Celtic Podcasts: https://www.ten10podcasts.com/celtic-podcasts

Instant Reaction: Celtic v Aberdeen (Wed 17th Feb 2021)

Wed, 17 Feb 2021 22:20:00 -0000

Celtic recorded their 5th straight league win with a 1-0 victory over Aberdeen at Celtic Park, thanks to a long range strike from David Turnbull..

A result like that would usually be cause for celebration but like so much of Celtic’s play this season it was a difficult 90 minutes to endure.

Getting the 3 points is always the priority, but the performance is important – it always has been at Celtic – and we’re just not getting that from this Celtic team.

We took to the mics shortly after the final whistle to dissect our 29th game of a long, long league season!

Love on the Rocks | Celtic and Edouard To Part Company?

Mon, 15 Feb 2021 17:22:00 -0000

Celtic extended their winning streak (does 4 games count as a streak?!) with wins against St Mirren & St Johnstone this week but many fans remain disillusioned at how the club is currently operating.

The much fabled "New Year Review" has now landed (at least we think that's what it is) and we speculate here on the content and what we as fans are seeking at this time. A "Review" indicates looking back the way, but what are the plans moving forward?

On the park Odsonne Edouard celebrated Valentine's Day by extending his scoring spree to 6 matches, but are we now entering the final 10 matches of his love affair with the Celtic support?

We cover all this and more in this week's episode of The Celtic Exchange.

Celtic go four wins on the spin with an Odsonne Edouard double at McDiarmid Park steering the Bhoys to a 2-1.

The Hoops went a goal behind early in the second half with the Frenchman’s double proving the difference in the end.

Wed, 10 Feb 2021 23:45:00 -0000

Celtic picked up their 3rd league win on the bounce with a comfortable away win at St Mirren and we got on the mics shortly after the final whistle to cover the main talking points.

Tom Rogic put in another strong performance with a goal and an assist and we definitely didn’t doubt his inclusion on twitter before the match….. (@CeltExchange)

A particularly effective second half put the game beyond all doubt against an in-form St Mirren side and the Bhoys should take some confidence from the performance.

Here We Go, Two (Wins) In a Row

Sun, 07 Feb 2021 18:00:00 -0000

Celtic scaled the dizzy heights of two wins in a row for the first time this year with a (nervy) 2-1 win over Motherwell, following a 4-0 midweek win at Rugby Park.

This week's goalkeeping has been brought to you by Scott Bain, and his part in Motherwell's goal has thrown him right back under the spotlight. Are we being too harsh?

Off the park it's very much as you were with the manger looking like a man who's going nowhere anytime soon. Surely we're not going to enter Season 2021/22 with Neil Lennon still at the helm.

Celtic’s ongoing lack of action – both in terms of providing clarity on the manager’s position, and on signing much needed re-enforcements during the January transfer window – is striking.
