Reposted by John McGinleyThe Celtic Way @thecelticway.bsky.social · 26/08/2026There is no sophisticated explanation to absolve Celtic players and coaches of last night's failure.

John McGinley @johnmcginley.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Five straight exits from UCL qualifying show how quickly Celtic's advantages can become irrelevant if the club are unprepared.

John McGinley @johnmcginley.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Martin O'Neill or Robbie Keane? The obvious answer is undoubtedly O'Neill, but why has this become the question?

John McGinley @johnmcginley.bsky.social · 17/05/2026The concerns around pitch invasions & other investigated incidents re: player and staff safety is as justified at Celtic Park as they are at other stadiums.

John McGinley @johnmcginley.bsky.social · 17/05/2026I watched O'Neill win his first title as a 14-year-old season ticket holder. This one meant so much because of that nostalgia, with him at the centre of it all. Also because it was flawed, emotional and hard-won, not routine.

John McGinley @johnmcginley.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Maybe this is a chance for broadcasters to bring a more thoughtful, considered approach to match coverage.
