    Have seen these fixtures posted in a few places on the net today:

    Central Coast Mariners vs Celtic, Homebush Sunday July 3rd
    Perth Glory, Perth Saturday July 9th
    Melbourne Victory, Melb. Wednesday July 13th

    I wouldn't advise you book flights until there has been an official announcement, wouldn't expect that until the season finishes.

    Could potentially be making 5 or 6 flights in two and a half weeks!

    Got an email from the Melbourne CSC, who got an email from the promoter who is bringing Celtic out here. I know it's a crappy source but i've seen it posted by a few people over Twitter.

    The promoter said something about just having to sort out whether to use AAMI Park or Etihad Stadium in Melbourne. Said would on use Etihad if the seats were pulled into the rectangular position.

    Yep, i'd do Sydney and Melbourne for sure. Can't stand Melbourne Victory tbh. Would do Perth if funds permit.

    I could do perth but I would only be able to do perth and would be short of cash of a while, I dont have a favourite a league team but I dislike kevin muscat so victory would be sour in that respect

    Should get on the Adelaide United bandwagon. :50:

    Don't think Muscat ever played in a Celtic v Rangers match. Thank * he's retired now, would cause absolute carnage to our players if he played against us.

    I did follow Adelaide when they played in the world club cup. I live down the road from Ausgrid stadium so ive been to see the jets a few times but the way the jets "hardcore" treat fellow fans has turned me off supporting them. I can see muscat playing against us as a last goodbye to the fans before coaching players.....to injure

    The former Celtic McGlinchy is a Mariner now for those outside of Australia, while Robbie Fowler plays for Perth and they are coached by Ian Ferguson...Hmm.

    Works out well, I'd say the Sydney game will be the big gathering for those of us on the East, and half of us will go to Melbourne. Most of us on the east won't make the 5-6 hour flight west but that's ok because Western Australia has a large Celtic fanbase that will fill their ground.

    Apparently it's in the Daily Telegraph newspaper that the game in Melbourne is going to be played at AAMI Park instead of Etihad Stadium. Huge win if that's the case! :50:

    I,m from Perth,Western Australia and really stoked about the Bhoys tour down under.
    There is a large Celtic following here including the GCSC based close to the stadium.The stadium only holds 22,000 though sure this will be filled so any of you guys keen on a trip should seriously consider coming over as can guarantee an awesome,friendly,party atmosphere.
    I will be heading over to Melbourne for the game the following weekend against Melbourne Victory who have the largest support in Oz.The stadiums there are superb holding around 50,000.
    Feel free to contact me if you require any additional info!!
