Summary
This week Si sits down with one of Celtic’s most recent cult heroes, the technically gifted winger, Paddy McCourt. Great laughs in this one as Paddy recounts his unorthodox professional career which led his pathway to the club he always supported as a boy in Glasgow.
From injuries derailing his start in British Football with Rochdale to making the most of the social life back Derry and eventually the dream come true of ending up at Celtic Park.
Hilarious stories from inside the Celtic dressing room, team nights out and of course how he managed to develop as an important first team player after getting to grips with a new level of professional training! You’ll enjoy this one!
