Inter have hit a bit of form recently but comments coming out of Milan indicate their visit to Celtic Park is viewed with some trepidation. The stadium’s Champions League reputation remains fresh in the memory, even if the team has been transformed since the last major victory over a truly top team two years ago.
A number of those who will play for Celtic on Thursday will have only seen those great European nights on television. Playing in front of 60,000 Celtic fans will be a new experience. Transforming this support into an energising force is our job. Inter’s first objective will be to frustrate and quieten the crowd. My hunch is that this will be difficult.
We have the line-up confirmed for the CQN11 St Patrick’s Dinner, which is at the Kerrydale Suite on Friday 13 March. Topping the bill for the Q&A is Packy Bonnar, Jock Stein’s last signing, who made his debut on St Patrick’s Day 1979.
Packy’s Celtic and Ireland team-mate, Tommy Coyne, will also be taking part. Tommy had an incredible career and speaks intelligently on football, and life in general. We’re also delighted to have Joe Miller. Joe played in the same Celtic team as Packy and Tommy. Part of our historic Centenary Team, he also scored that unforgettable Scottish Cup Final winner. More recently Joe formed the Association of Former Celtic Players.
To mark the 50th anniversary of Jock Stein’s first game as Celtic manager, which takes place that week, we also have Jock’s personal friend and biographer, Archie Macpherson will speak about the great man. If you’ve ever needed inspiration…..
I’m also delighted to confirm we have Celtic’s First Lady of Song, Patricia Ferns, who is making the journey over from Ireland for our night.
Let me know if you still need a ticket, celticquicknews@gmail.com

West End of East End,
Thanks. Will do.
Belgian tax authorities are investigating Luxembourg bank accounts held by English Premier League stars Eden Hazard, Thibaut Courtois and Kevin Mirallas, De Morgen newspaper reported Tuesday.
The Flemish daily said the Belgian internationals have Luxembourg based companies they use to transfer money. Luxembourg taxes are considerably lower than in Belgium.
Teenager Divock Origi, who Liverpool have loaned to French side Lille was also named in the report.
Hazard and Courtois are team-mates at Chelsea while Mirallas turns out for Everton.
Such practices are legal if the players can “prove that the company is run from Luxembourg, which is naturally difficult (to prove)”, according to an expert quoted by De Morgen who added that the players involved risk penalties.
Last November the ‘Lux Leaks’ scandal revealed secret structures used by international clients, including major multinationals, to avoid taxes with tax avoidance schemes in Luxembourg.

It is up to us, to everyone at Celtic Park, to build up our own legends. We don’t want to live with history, to be compared with legends from the past. We must make new legends.
Jock Stein..

Thanks Skin. Hope you enjoyed the Belfast embassy regal. Love now being able to put faces to blog names. We truly are a special club. I was saying to HT, Vp, Gordy and Roy C the hospitality that I received in Scotland was unbelievable. I stayed in Ferguslie in Paisley and the free Republic of Coatbridge. So I was delighted ,along with the rest of the Irish brigade, to be able in some very small way to be able to return the compliment. Sorry you or Petec couldn’t make the unabridged taxi tour.hh
