Moved to say how much I like David's writing. He encapsulates the history of our Club and the emotions involved in following them. His recent 'Dawn of the free' missive was particularly poignant for me. As an 8 year old I was dimly aware of 19 October 57. My Uncle and I (together with a stray dog) were the last remaining in our end when a former club duffed us up 3-0 in the Cup replay of '63. Thought then (foolish youth) I'd never see us win anything. 65 broke that pessimism!
Hail! Hail!
P.S. David, as a fellow cricket aficionado and one of Celtic's foremost historians, can you confirm that we played a charity cricket matc (late 60s/early 70s) in which Jim Brogan tool 6 wickets?
