Sam, that was great. I knew about Celtic's origins but I'd never heard of Brother Walfrid. The memorial in Ballymote is a fitting tribute to the man. Next video....... Ballymote Celtic, and meeting some of Brother Walfrid's relatives.

Hi Sam. I wish i caught up with you in my home town of Sligo. Loved the video, but you missed out on another Sligoman who was as equally important as Brother Walfrid to Glasgow Celtic F.C.. Sean Fallon was born in Sligo town and spent 30YRS at Celtic as a player, coach and Assistant manager to Jock Stein. 10 of the 11 Lisbon Lions were already signed by Sean before Jock arrived as manager. He's also credited with discovering Kenny Dalglish among others. There's a real argument that Sean was the greatest talent scout in English football history. His force of personallity convinced many Celtic legends to sign and this ultimatly added to the history of this great club. The 31st of July this year will mark the 100th birthday of Sean Fallon, a Celtic Legend.

Didn't even know his name until now and didn't realise that he was held in this much regard, statues and stuff. Great video.

@@ThePeakys Yup, you should have. The Mighty Ant was without doubt one of the finest captains of Celtic FC. He also captained and managed Northern Ireland. Many people forget he was assistant manager to Billy Bingham at the 1982 World Cup. He was a very talented player; fast and with a strength and courage that belied his relatively short stature. The era in which he played for Celtic was relatively barren for the club, but Peacock was held in the highest regard by the Celtic fans throughout.The only player from that era more popular than Peacock was another Northern Irish great, the legendary Charles Patrick Tully. No Celtic player before or past was ever adored more than Cheeky Charlie. They referred to it as "Tully mania".

I am from ballymote not a ballymote celtic fan as such more of a GAA fan ,but i will tell yo what i know Ballymote celtic are a local club or a sunday league equivalent.Basically the same people who play and are involved in the GAA club are Involved in ballymote celtic there is a bit of fixture conflict though but generally thats the way it is.Usually however in rural areas its just the GAA club and if there is a soccer club they don't get on ,but not in ballymote both codes are more or less on an equal footing

Celtic are not a Catholic club as we are continually addressed as! We are a football club which was founded by a Catholic member of the church to help Irish Immigrants in Glasgow to survive impoverishment! The food kitchens which were operating were not sectarian but given the areas they operated in were mostly used by Irish Immigrants who were Catholics! The club unlike other institutions have never been against signing persons from any race religion or colour! A significant contribution has been made by people (non catholic) to our glorious history and such we should not be called a Catholic club, but a club for all! 👍🍀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇮

Joseph. Celtic were founded specifically to fund the St Vincent de Paul's Poor Children's Dinner Tables in the parishes of St Michael, St Mary's and Sacred Heart. I'd like to think that nobody was turned away but the intention was for only children from those parishes to be fed. In the early days Celtic were very much seen as being from the Irish Catholic community. You are correct in saying that we did not have any issues who played for us unlike other Irish clubs such as Hibs who had a Catholic only policy

Archie Gemmell wasn't a Lisbon Lion and didn't play for Celtic. Bobby Lennox is from Saltcoats (about 30 miles) Furthest away from Glasgow. I visit Brother Walfrid once a year. 10 minute walk or so from Palmerston. (Queen of the South)

Ballymote Celtic would be playing in the Sligo/Leitrim district league which would be the local soccer league, most county's in Ireland would have a District league it would be considered the lowest level of football in Ireland, it's goes Loi, leinster/Munster/Ulster senior leagues and then the district leagues
