Celtic Exchange: Celtic Football Club in Focus

Celtic dug deep against a dogged Ross County in Dingwall to take home the 3 points and their 7th league win in a row. Goals from Alistair Johnston and Nicholas Kuhn were the difference as the Bhoys had to fight back from a 1st half penalty by Ronan Hale. It was a tough shift for Brendan Rodgers' men after the midweek disappointment in Dortmund, but the win was the most important thing ahead of the...

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 els...

Celtic face their toughest challenge of the season yet as they take on Borussia Dortmund in Champions League Matchday 2. The Germans made it all the way to the Final last time out, but Brendan Rodgers' side are playing with a confidence and a swagger and will have no fears about the challenge that lies in store. Its early days in the tournament but any sort of positive result on the night would pu...

Celtic have been in exceptional form with 9 wins from 9 this season so far, but an altogether tougher test now awaits in the shape of Borussia Dortmund.   This is where Brendan Rodgers’ side can show just how far they’ve really come in the Irishman’s second spell in charge as they look to make a serious impact on the Champions League.   Last season’s finalists will provide stern opposition, but mo...

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, whil...

Celtic are back in action on Saturday night as they take on St Johnstone in league duty in a 5.30pm kick off. The Bhoys are targeting a sixth straight league win following their 100% start to the campaign and head to Perth in good spirits. With a Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund looming on Tuesday Brendan Rodgers has some tough calls to make ahead of this one and it'll be interesting...

On Saturday, 21st September, Jon Attenborough and best friend Sam completed the challenge of visiting all 42 Scottish Professional Football League grounds. A notable achievement in its own right, but made even more remarkable when you consider Jon has a visual impairment, and that Sam is his trusted guide dog. An avid fan of Scottish Football, Jon has made it his mission to raise awareness of acce...

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...

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 😄)...

Following the midweek win over Slovan Bratislava Celtic are back in cup action once again at the weekend as they take on Falkirk in the League Cup Quarter Final. John McGlynn has his side on top form in the Championship and Brendan Rodgers will need to ensure his side are on their toes to avoid any slip ups. A place at Hampden awaits the winner and the Bhoys will be looking to round off an impress...

Its been a long time coming but Celtic finally got their first opening day Champions League win, and what a win it was! Five different scorers ensured that the three points were never in doubt for Brendan Rodgers' side on a stunning night at Celtic Park against Slovan Bratislava. Special mention must go to Man of the Match Liam Scales who got the bvall rolling with the oening goal and the Irishman...

Celtic are in sparkling form so far this season, but a challenge of a different kind awaits this week in the champions League. 6 in a row Slovakian Champions Slovan Bratislava are the visitors at Celtic Park as Brendan Rodgers' side look to get their European campaign off to the best possible start. With 6 wins from 6 and a full squad to choose from the Bhoys are in fine shape as they head in to W...

Celtic made it 5 league wins from 5 at the weekend and now a different test altogether awaits as we take our first steps into this season's Champions League. Brendan Rodgers' Bhoys are in confident form ahead of the visit of Slovan Bratislava in a game which presents a solid opportunity to get early points on the board. Arne Engels and Luke McCowan grabbed their first goals in the Hoops at the wee...

Kasper Schmeichel equalled a record that has stood for 118 years at the weekend as he recorded his 5th clean sheet in 5 league games in the 2-0 win over Hearts. Its a further boost for the Bhoys as they continued their early season form, with goals coming from Schmeichel's fellow summer signings Arne Engels and Luke McCowan. Its been an encouraging start to the campaign and Brendan Rodgers will be...

Celtic are finally back in action after the international break and looking to maintain their 100% start to the campaign in this home fixture against Hearts. The game offers a prime opportunity to see new Bhoys Arne Engels, Luke McCowan, Auston Trusty & Alex Valle in action and the manager has some tough calls to make in his starting XI With our Champions League opener against Slovan Bratilava jus...

A couple of weeks without Celtic is a couple of weeks too long and the Bhoys finally return to action this weekend after the enforced international break. Brendan Rodgers will be hoping his side pick up where they left off after the 100% start to the campaign and Hearts are next in their sights as league action resumes. In the days that follow we'll line up in Matchday 1 of this season's Champions...

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 b...

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 Phi...

It's been a long transfer window for Celtic for so many reason but we're finally here.... it's deadline day! And Tino was joined LIVE by by popular Celtic broadcaster Hamish Carton of the brilliant Celtic A.M channel to bring you all you need to know about Celtic's summer dealings. In the lead up to the final day the club had secured the signings of Kasper Schmeichel, Viljami Sinisale, Paulo Berna...

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...

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 m...

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...

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...

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.  ...

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...
