    Seriously doubt it mate, it's very limited edition and each book will be personally signed by all the remaining Lisbon lions and current Celtic squad and other legends...

    I personally think its quite stupid I mean who can realistically afford to just splash so much money out on a book. I am not denying that it would be an amazing thing to have though.

    It was a bit of luck mate, it was through Tony Hamilton (the Celtic announcer) who is one of my dad's best friends and Tony knew about the creation of this book and passed my dad's details on...

    and btw, we're not getting a copy of it even though my dad's in it, it's too exclusive and limited edition for them to do that and we couldn't afford the £3500 or so for one of those books..

    I know someone who might be buying this, if they do, I'll see if I can get a wee look at it next time they're through here.

    Hope none of you were expecting the Celtic Opus for Christmas!

    Apparently, the books launch has been postponed until February 4th because the producers (Kraken Sport/Media Ltd) do not have enough 'quality paper' to begin printing! :56:
