[edit] Formation
- Main airticle: History of Celtic F.C.
Celtic Football Club was foondit at a meetin in St. Mary's Roman Catholic Kirk haw on East Rose Street (nou Forbes Street), Calton, Glasgae, by an Erse Marist monk cried Brother Walfrid on 6 November, 1887.
The chairity establisht by Brither Walfrid wis cried The Poor Children's Dinner Table. Walfrid's ettle tae estaiblish the club as a wey fund raisin funds wis, tae the maist pairt, inspired by the example o Hibernian F.C. that wis foondit bi immigrant Erse fowk a few year afore in Embra.
On the 28t o Mey 1888, Celtic played thair first offeicial gemme agin the Rangers an wan 5-2 in whit wis described as a "freendly encoonter". Celtic haed 8 'Guest' players frae Hibernian playin that day.
[edit] The Auld Firm an sectarianism
Celtic haes aye haen a historic association wi the fowk o Ireland an the Catholic Kirk. As an ootcome, the club an its supporters haes been embrylt in maiters adae wi sectarianism. At its warst sectarianism haes manifestit itsel in sectarian veeolence; the reproduction o cultural prejuidices; an a perceived anti-Celtic agenda (see History o Celtic F.C.), that some fans believes tae be a pairt o a mair muckle anti-Catholic bias in Scotland (see Erse-Scots).
In the warld o Scotis fitba, sectarianism is oot the control o ony ae fitba club. It is a mair muckle issue, ruitit in social, cultural, historical an religious circumstances. Ne'ertheless, baith Celtic an the Reengers accepts that they hae a problem wi sectarianism. Baith sides o the Auld Firm admeets that a pairt o thair supporters haes been, an conteenas tae be, guilty o haudin sectarian beliefs an cultural intolerance gaun.
In recent times baith Celtic an the Rangers haes taen meisurs tae fecht sectarianism. Warkin alangside the Scotis Pairliment, kirk groups an communities, the Auld Firm haes clampit doun on sectarian sangs, inflammatory flag-wavin, an fashoius supporters, uisin mair muckle levels o policin an surveillance. In 1996, for instance, Celtic stairtit thair Bhoys Against Bigotry campaign, later follaed by Youth Against Bigotry tae "educate the young on haein ... respect for aw aspects o the community - aw races, aw colours, aw creeds", accordin tae the then chief executive Ian McLeod [1].
[edit] Celtic and the media
Celtic hae aye ettelt tae engage direct wi the fans an bypass the tradeitional media ootlats as a wey o gettin mair accurate information tae the ootside warld aboot the inner warkins o the club.
Whan Jock Stein was Celtic manager, he stairtit a trend in Breitish fitba that becam kent as the "tracksuit manager", whaur he traint in public wi the playin staff an hostit media/press conferences.
In 1965 Celtic publisht the The Celtic View, the Unitit Kinrick's first e'er fitba club newspaper.
