Celtic’s Holy Trinity

They discuss the unique contributions of Pat and all the Celtic writers and historians, emphasising the importance of their work in preserving the club’s rich history. The conversation delves into the impact of Celtic’s early days, the significance of storytelling in football, and the camaraderie among Celtic writers.

They also talk about Tom Campbell, who passed away earlier this year and David Potter, and it’s now two years since we lost David with Matt referring to the three – Pat Woods, Tom Campbell and Potter – the the Holy Trinity of Celtic writers.

This podcast though is extra-special

This podcast though is probably extra-special because of the interaction between Andrew and Matt, two fine Celtic men talking about all things Celtic from the 1970 European Cup final defeat that Andrew reckons is never written about (we’ve covered it extensively on The Celtic Star) to talking about old Celtic songs that deserve dusting down and another outing in the hall of fame…C…E…L..TIC.

Have a listen, you’ll be glad that you did.
