3 NOV 2026 · Andrew and Stephen gather for what begins with the wonderfully reassuring theme of “we’re shite and we know we are” and somehow manages to become an hour-long attempt to work out exactly how shite Celtic are, whether the manager can fix it, whether the players can fix it, whether anyone at the club knows who should fix it.Along the way there’s Falkirk frustration, managerial rumours, old taxi-driver transfer tales reborn for the social-media age, Martin O’Neill nostalgia, Fergus McCann memories, boardroom communication, Kieran McKenna hope and the recurring suspicion that Celtic might want to stop doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result. Remarkably, despite all that, they finish on something approaching optimism: Celtic still have good players, Europe needn’t be surrendered before kick-off and, with the right mindset, maybe things aren’t quite as bad as everyone thinks. Well… maybe.Enjoy…https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-celtic-underground/id305526084https://open.spotify.com/show/1DP71JuyXov72ehwiN1hcghttps://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/7238ebea-3b54-4978-b084-16905b5fbec1/the-celtic-undergroundhttps://player.fm/series/the-celtic-undergroundhttps://www.spreaker.com/user/the-celtic-underground--7676165https://audioboom.com/channels/3459346-celtic-undergroundhttps://www.youtube.com/user/HarryBradyCUbe

26 OCT 2026 · Celtic get the three points at Easter Road, but not before battling Hibs, the wind and (at times) themselves. Andrew, Stephen and Ross pick through another performance from a team still looking suspiciously like a collection of decent jigsaw pieces from several different boxes: the midfield doesn’t quite connect, Kasper Høgh still can’t buy a goal, Alistair Johnston’s hamstring causes another wobble and Europe remains the place where Celtic’s shortcomings are brutally exposed. There’s also time for Grant Hanley causing actual laughter by appearing up front, a referee apparently wrestling with his own whistle, Dane Murray wondering whether he’s really allowed to invert into midfield, the mystery of Oxlade-Chamberlain’s disappearing game-time and Ross taking an impressively scenic route to the answer “I don’t know”. Ultimately it’s three points, micro layers recommended, and up the road.https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-celtic-underground/id305526084https://open.spotify.com/show/1DP71JuyXov72ehwiN1hcghttps://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/7238ebea-3b54-4978-b084-16905b5fbec1/the-celtic-undergroundhttps://player.fm/series/the-celtic-undergroundhttps://www.spreaker.com/user/the-celtic-underground--7676165https://audioboom.com/channels/3459346-celtic-undergroundhttps://www.youtube.com/user/HarryBradyCUbeThanks for listening to The Celtic Underground Substack!

22 OCT 2026 · In this week’s Celtic Underground In Conversation, Andrew is joined by former Celtic youth player, professional footballer and now PhD graduate Mark McGuigan, who spent four and a half years inside Celtic researching one of the club’s biggest challenges - turning promising youngsters into first-team players. Drawing on his own experience of being released by Celtic and his subsequent work with the Academy, B team and first-team coaching staff, Mark explains why talent alone isn’t enough, why mentality matters just as much as ability, and why the right loan move might teach a youngster more than another season of youth football. They discuss the future of B teams, the threat of English clubs poaching Scotland’s best youngsters, and whether Celtic really have a functioning pathway to the first team. There’s also a fascinating glimpse behind the scenes at Lennoxtown, with insights into the meticulous standards of Brendan Rodgers, the motivational powers of Ange Postecoglou, the quiet authority of John Kennedy and the extraordinary dedication of Celtic’s senior players. An entertaining and illuminating conversation about football, academia and why producing the next Callum McGregor is rather more complicated than simply telling youngsters to be good enough.Available to members of the CU Community from Sunday (as usual) this podcast is also available to all from Thursday as the content is so pertinent to so many current criticisms of the club.

21 OCT 2026 · After Celtic’s magnificent seven-goal demolition of Hearts, Harry is joined by Stephen who is in unusually cheerful territory as they pick over a performance that had everything - goals, pace, excitement and Hearts fans heading for the exits before the half-time pies had gone cold. There’s praise for Dane Murray, a debate about giving youngsters a proper chance, and the ongoing search for a midfield enforcer who apparently needs the physique of Virgil van Dijk and the passing range of Andrea Pirlo. We also revisit the Hearts documentary, ponder the remarkable ability of pundits to be right both before and after getting everything wrong, and ask whether Martin O’Neill’s comments are tactical genius or just a man getting older and losing his filter. Finally, attention turns to Celta Vigo and the Europa League, with Stephen confidently predicting a 3-1 Celtic victory based on the most scientific of footballing methods… a good feeling. After seven against Hearts, who are we to argue?Enjoy…https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-celtic-underground/id305526084https://open.spotify.com/show/1DP71JuyXov72ehwiN1hcghttps://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/7238ebea-3b54-4978-b084-16905b5fbec1/the-celtic-undergroundhttps://player.fm/series/the-celtic-undergroundhttps://www.spreaker.com/user/the-celtic-underground--7676165https://audioboom.com/channels/3459346-celtic-undergroundhttps://www.youtube.com/user/HarryBradyCUbeThe Celtic Underground Substack is a reader-supported publication.
