The Celtic Underground - Podcast Extra of HMFC Transfer Window Dons Reaction
February 02, 2017 11:39 - 42 minutes - 39.2 MBLast night Celtic continued their master class of dominance in Scottish football with a 1-0 win over the country’s second best side. This is despite Celtic being without 4 of the top 5 scorers this season and fielding no recognised striker. This on top of the fact that Aberdeen had played on Friday evening and Celtic on Sunday. This gap of days would mean that the Dons players could have a day off following their victory over Dundee and still have 3 days to prepare. Celtic on the other hand ...

The Celtic Underground - Brendan Painted A Picture Of Hope
January 21, 2017 00:17 - 1 hour - 37.1 MBThis week I am re-joined by old favourite Lachie Mor. Regular listeners may recall that Lachie was something of a doubting Thomas when it came to the appointment of Brendan…”what’s he won?” and “He’s not done anything in Europe” were two criticisms I recall. With the halfway point of the first season under our belts I thought the season review and forward projections after the break would be the opportune time to revisit Lachie. I don’t think I’m giving away too many spoilers when I say h...
The Celtic Underground - Special Game Sold Short
January 14, 2017 13:45 - 1 hour - 36.9 MBHappy New Year. We cannot believe it’s 2017 and Mark Cooper and Harry Brady cannot believe that our terrestrial highlights on TV are not as good as they were 30 years ago. Mark Cooper is now safely tucked up in Argentina with all the warmth that the southern hemisphere brings at this time of year however he is only just home having popped back up North for the festive season. During that time he attended the Rangers game and gives us a perspective of a man who’s been away from this d...
The Celtic Underground - Keeper Roulette
December 23, 2016 17:24 - 1 hour - 33.9 MBSeasons Greetings to you one and old and speaking of auld, if you’re a supporter with memories of the early to mid 70’s you will recall that it was a changing time for goalkeepers at Celtic. Faither time Ronnie Simpson had retired and Jock was chopping and changing keepers more often than new Rangers change owners. For me I can recall seeing Ally Hunter, Patrick Barclay, Roy Baines and Denis Connaghan all vying for the Number 1 jersey before Big Peter Latchford secured the first choice po...
The Celtic Underground - An illogical By The Minute Podcast.
December 14, 2016 22:23 - 1 hour - 34.8 MBTo quote Noddy Holder “It’s Christmaaaaaaasss!” It’s the season of goodwill to all men and times when we all deserve a little treat so hopefully my treat to you is worthwhile and one you actually want. I’ve had a chat with Lawrence Donegan and with his regular invites over to the @bytheminCeltic podcasts I thought it only right to return the favour so we have Lawrence and his regular guest Mr Remy McSwain nipping across to The Celtic Underground for a chat. The bhoys review the Mothe...

The Celtic Underground - James Grant, Hallelujah Man
November 12, 2016 00:29 - 1 hour - 66.2 MBThe joys of this podcast are the many occasions when we get to chat with Celtic fans who are experts in another field and this week I had the pleasure to sit down and chat Celtic and music with the gentleman James Grant. Brought up in Bridgeton then Castlemilk, James was part of that group of Scottish musicians that was so prominent in the 1980's. His career commenced with the band Friends Again but James really came into his own as the front man of Love & Money. Hopefully you find this ...

After this bit of banter the bhoys get get down to...

August 31, 2016 23:42 - 1 hour - 36.9 MBThis week Mark Cooper joins Harry to discuss the summer transfer window which, in the usual fashion, closed without much Celtic business being done on the last day. The boys discuss whether it was good bad or indifferent and decide it was pretty good.

It has been challenged on the grounds that it compromises the principle of free speech. In June 2013, The Herald described ...

June 04, 2016 23:39 - 30 minutes - 27.8 MBThis week Saint Anthony is in conversation with Jim Delahunt.

Celtic Underground -Brendan is Here...
May 24, 2016 23:20 - 53 minutes - 24.5 MBWhat can I say? What a week?! Friday 20th May, mid afternoon I was given a clue to stand by my bed as confirmation of the new manager was pending...Brodgers was coming! Even as news started to spread that we had got our man, there were still those who doubted Celtic could attract someone of Brendan Rodgers caliber but attract him we did and if he had any doubt that he'd made the right decision I'm sure these were swept away by the avalanche of goodwill which greeted his arrival on Monday...
Celtic Underground 281 - All Aboard The Brendan Bus

May 18, 2016 22:20 - 1 hour - 31.8 MBThis week, with all the managerial rumours there was only one thing to do, get on Skype, get on to Lachie and discuss the rumoured cadidates. Surprisingly Lachie seems less than excited about the two leading candidates and discusses what he wants. Harry tries to suggest that Lachie wants Ronny version 2, a claim Lachie shoots down. Lachie discusses his desire to get in a quality manager who wins the key games and the bhoys agree that whoever they get, this is what we all want. Enjoy ...

Celtic Underground No277 - Goodnight & God Love You
April 21, 2016 22:25 - 1 hour - 36.2 MBThis week is a rather sad podcast. I am sure, like me, whenever someone walks through the door of Celtic Park you are desperate for them to succeed and therefore when it doesn't work out, that person's departure is always tinged with a little sadness. St Anthony joins Harry to discuss the cup semi final defeat and the confirmed departure of Ronny Deila. Since around February everyone has been aware that Ronny would be leaving in the summer but the nature of the defeat to the Zombies and the...
Celtic Underground No 276 - Tony Warner "5-1 Mate!"
April 15, 2016 19:31 - 1 hour - 34.3 MBThis week Harry is joined by a man who played for 18 clubs and although he only managed 3 games at Celtic, one of those was truly memorable - Mr Tony Warner.

Celtic Underground No274 - The Chick Young One...
March 18, 2016 23:56 - 39 minutes - 18 MBThis week to prove St Anthony's ecumenical drive at CU towers we have an interview with Chick Young.

Celtic Underground No273 - Forthright Fallon's Explosive Chat
February 29, 2016 22:30 - 1 hour - 31 MBThis week St Anthony is joined by John Fallon and his guest doesn't miss and hit the wall when discussing all things Celtic!

Celtic Underground N272 - Post Cup Final Barney
February 01, 2016 23:02 - 1 hour - 36 MBThis week St Anthony and Harry have a bit of a ding dong following the Hampden defeat at the hands of Ross County. The boys discuss numbers and positions and all that rubbish to debate the rights, wrongs and whatevers. I'm not sure a any agreement is reached. Following a discussion of the past the bhoys discuss the present of the last day of the January transfer window. Finally the bhoys move on to the future of the Aberdeen game. Saint thinks a 2-0 Celtic victory is on the cards. Here's h...
Celtic Underground No271 - Let's Be Frank
January 21, 2016 22:40 - 1 hour - 36.7 MBThis week St Anthony is joined by a Celtic star whom Saint would put into a list of potential all time great Celtic strikers - Mr Frank McGarvey. Most will know that Frank began his career very succesfully at St Mirren before, in May 1979, McGarvey signed for Liverpool for £270,000. However, his tenure with the club lasted only 10 months. Unable to breakthrough into the first team, McGarvey sought a transfer. Liverpool accepted a bid of £270,000 by Celtic in March 1980, and for a short time...
Celtic Underground No270 - Flares & Striking Pairs
January 14, 2016 23:29 - 1 hour - 39.9 MBThis week Harry catches up with St Anthony to discuss the events of the past few weeks. There has been little football since the pre-Christmas podcast but the guys manage to stretch out the discussion on the Stranraer and Partick Thistle games to such an extent that you'd think they were exciting matches. The chat about Stranraer however leads to a discussion on flares (pyro not trousers). Finally the bhoys discuss Anthony Stokes and the club's inability to sign a decent striker...enj...

December 22, 2015 00:13 - 1 hour - 37.2 MBThis week Harry and St Anthony join up on a podcast to discuss the burning question - Ronnie Deila: Stick or Twist. Harry starts by comparing the league position with this time last year. Celtic are 3 points and 11 goals scored better off than after 18 points last year - surely sign of progress, but the bhoys go on and outline their concerns. After a few heated debating points along the way the agreed position is stick...for now. We shall see if this was the right thing to do. Have a great...
Celtic Underground No268 - And McGinlay Scores!

November 17, 2015 23:16 - 56 minutes - 26.1 MBThis week St Anthony is joined by a legend of Scottish Football, Pat Stanton.

Celtic Underground No265 - "17 Years of Organised Cheating"
November 12, 2015 00:27 - 1 hour - 52 MBThis week the Celtic Underground team discuss cheating - wholescale, industrial cheating with the clear intent to defraud Scottish football, masterminded by a man hailed as business hero, but who was nothing of the sort. Knighted for services to business David Murray stacked up debts of £1bn with a £20m shortfall in his group's pension fund. And when this guy could no longer use his friends and contacts at HBoS to paper over the cracks of his business failures he then used the money of you a...
