    "It's been a long time coming, but I know a change is gonna come." 🍀 Is Celtic FC truly reaching its "World Class" potential, or are we standing still while the rest of European football moves forward? In this video, we dive deep into the five pillars that will define the future of our club. From the boardroom to the pitch, we discuss why a radical change in attitude is required to achieve our global potential. What we cover in this video: 🏆 The Recruitment Model: Why our transfer strategy needs to move beyond "projects" to proven quality. 🏆 Youth Development: How to bridge the gap between the Celtic Academy and the first team. 🏆 Champions League Aspirations: What it actually takes to compete at the elite level in 2025/26. 🏆 Fan Engagement: Restoring the bond between the board and the supporters. 🏆 Global Reach: Scaling the Celtic brand to match our history and stature on the world stage.

  • Celtic's Dysfunction: Why the fans are not to blame // ACSOM // A Celtic State of Mind

    Celtic's Dysfunction: Why the fans are not to blame // ACSOM // A Celtic State of Mind
    Apr 15 2026
    Has the Celtic Board shifted the blame for the club’s current struggles onto the supporters? In this video, we deep-dive into the ongoing dysfunction at Celtic FC and explain why the finger-pointing at the fans is both unfair and inaccurate. From the chaotic Celtic AGM scenes to the lack of investment in the first-team squad, the gap between the Parkhead hierarchy and the terraces has never been wider. We discuss: 🏆 The Celtic Board vs. The Fans: Why the "small minority" narrative from Peter Lawwell and Michael Nicholson doesn't hold up. 🏆 Recruitment Failures: How years of poor transfer windows led to the current squad crisis. 🏆 Fan Media Blackout: The club’s continued shunning of independent Celtic fan media in favour of external outlets. 🏆 The fans didn't create this mess - they are the ones demanding it gets fixed. It’s time for accountability at the top of the tree.

    How Celtic can win the double: The changes Martin O'Neill should make // ACSOM // A Celtic State of Mind
    Apr 14 2026
    Can Celtic FC secure the 2026 Double? With the Scottish Premiership title race tighter than ever and a massive Scottish Cup Semi-Final against St Mirren on the horizon (19 April 2026), the pressure is on. In this video, we break down the critical tactical shifts and personnel decisions Martin O'Neill needs to make to overtake Hearts and Rangers in the final post-split fixtures. Join us as we discuss: 🏆 The Midfield Engine: Why the return of record-signing Arne Engels is the "game-changer" O'Neill has been waiting for. 🏆 Defensive Stability: Dealing with the long-term absences of Cameron Carter-Vickers and Jota while integrating a returning Alistair Johnston. 🏆 The O'Neill Factor: How the legendary manager's "old school" approach and use of the Green Brigade atmosphere can drive the Bhoys to glory. 🏆 The Road to Hampden: A tactical preview of the double-header against St Mirren. Celtic currently sit 3rd in the William Hill Premiership, just three points behind leaders Hearts. Can O'Neill work his magic one last time at Parkhead?
