Celtic fans spell it out for the management

The good news: I went to mass for the first time in yunks today, a sort of service before going over the top celebration by Fr Brian Jordan for the NYPD and New York Fire Department runners (in whose company I ran). It was marvellous.

The race itself was a challenge, of which more later, but I finished in respectable time and before the off presented Fr Jordan with $2,100 dollars donated by readers on the Balcony for the Church of the Holy Name of Jesus on the upper west side of Manhattan. A late contribution from Mark Guilfoyle and Casey Guilfoyle of Kentucky, fierce friends of Ireland, tipped us over the $2,000 target.

There'll be more later but for now, I was taken by this riveting picture from Celtic Park commenting on Celtic's use of the poppy on their rigs. The Celts went on to win 9-0 so I'm assuming the sentiment served to spur them on.
