Long before it became a football powerhouse, Celtic Football Club was something far more radical: a mission to feed the poor.
In this episode of Tactical Touch, we head to Glasgow’s East End in the late 19th century — a place scarred by poverty, prejudice, and the long shadow of the Great Irish Famine. It’s here that a Marist Brother named Walfrid, moved by the suffering of Irish Catholic immigrants, used football not just as a sport — but as a tool for survival, solidarity, and social change.
You’ll hear how Celtic was founded to raise funds for starving children, how it gave a forgotten community a sense of pride, and how it grew into a symbol of identity and resistance. From its early triumphs to the rise of the Old Firm rivalry with Rangers, from church halls to packed stadiums, Celtic’s story is one of unity forged in adversity.
This is not just a football club. It’s a living reminder of what happens when struggle meets purpose — and when football becomes something far greater than a game.
