Club Links?

Programme the other month called fight club, showed man city casuals going over fighting with rovers against bohs and getting battered by garda, they love it as no one gets proper jail for it over there..

We did, a friendly out there couple year ago..

 

We played Bilbao in a friendly a couple of years ago. I don't know of anyone who went over for the game though.

 

Gobshites didn't notice any Celtic stuff last time I was in dalyer but there was a lot of St Pauli stuff there at the wall on the jodi just beside the pub

 

Just an official club thing.

 

We had a vocal corner section, looked about 500+

 

Bloemfontein Celtic.

Play in the hoops too.

 

Yeah theres be a lot more left wing flags in the jodi this season like the international brigade flag, the starry plough Palestinian and basque flags.I think some of the Bohs ultras have links with the GB and strong links to the Malmo ultras.

 

Aren't that rovers lot more right wing?

 

Not really

 

Kibera Celtic, very strong club links there.

FOLLOWING the huge success of our two previous trips to Kenya in 2011 and 2013, Celtic Charity is delighted to once again offer supporters the life-changing opportunity to take part in a 10-day trip to Africa, while raising funds for charity.

Departing on Sunday, January 19, 2014, and arriving back in Glasgow on the morning of Friday, January 31, 2014, a group of volunteers will travel to the largest slum in Africa – Kibera in Kenya - with Celtic Charity.

Volunteer placements will be provided by Kibera Celtic Foundation and will involve the creation of the first phase of the new ‘Celtic School of Kibera’. Tasks will involve the building of classrooms, laying floors, plastering, painting, etc. There will also be plenty opportunities to interact with the local children. The package will also include a day trip.

As part of the initiative, we are looking to raise £18,880 for Celtic Charity and the Kibera Celtic Foundation, a fundraising target to commemorate the Club’s founding in 1888.

Participants (who must be aged 18+) are asked to raise a minimum of £2,000. A £170 deposit is required by every volunteer (to secure their flight) and each must also take out their own travel insurance policy.

Celtic Charity will provide a paper sponsor form and access to our online fundraising system so that you can set up your own page.

What’s included in the trip?

- Return flights
- Pre-departure support and preparation meeting
- Pick up from Jomo Kenyatta airport (NBO)
- Transfer from NBO airport to Shalom House
- Accommodation at Shalom House
- Three meals per day
- Placement at first phase of new ‘Celtic School of Kibera’
- Daily transport to/from school
- Day Trip
- Return airport transfer
- Celtic Charity/Kibera Celtic fundraising t-shirt
- In-country support from Kibera Celtic Foundation

There are a total of 28 places (maximum) up for grabs and these will be offered on a first come, first served basis.

Celtic Charity – set up as a charitable trust in 1995 - has always been an integral part of the Football Club, uniting the Celtic Family around the world in collectively-held values and beliefs. Since then, it has raised over £5m for a host of worthy causes on a local, national and international basis.

Celtic Charity is currently in the process of joining forces with the Celtic Foundation to establish a new, stronger Scottish Charity with a wider role and greater reach. This new entity will be called Celtic FC Foundation.

It is now beginning to take shape and supporters will see this developing further over the coming months, including a formal launch of Celtic FC Foundation.

 

Thought they were the club linked with a few English clubs..

Fair enough..

 

Malmo :smiley-laughing002: how did that come about haha and glad to see that about bohs

 

There's a few GB members who go over and help out with the celtic charity every year.

 

I don't really know I'm from the north side Rovers are the south I never had an interest in the local teams so I don't really know but I don't think so

 

Ballymote celtic of sligo actually does have one as its walfrids local team. Donegal celtic teams are just faking it.

 

It was a couple of Tims who set up Kibera Celtic I'm sure. There has been some fantastic work done out there.

 

Yeah they've racially abused a black player a number of times and have Celtic crosses on their flags which is used as a fascist symbol in italy by lazio fans. I've seen a few pictures of their ultras making * salutes but they probably have more of a republican element in their support and have links with Cliftonville.

 

It was indeed the folks out there have a great job with everything.

 

Also rover's let the Union jack fly over there stadium

 

They have links with Man city and Bury as far as I know
