Walfrid & The Bould Bhoys Named In The Scotsman’s Best Sports Books of the Year

On Friday 18 December, The Scotsman newspaper published a list of 16 books, which they ranked as the best sporting reads of 2020.

The publications ranged from books about the great boxer Muhammad Ali to Ken Scotland of Rugby fame. Keeping company with these great publications was The Celtic Star’s very own book – Walfrid & The Bould Bhoys: Celtic’s Founding Fathers, First Season & Early Stars.

About Author

Hailing from an Irish background, I grew up on the English south coast with the good fortune to begin watching Celtic during the Martin O'Neill era. I have written four Celtic books since the age of 19: Our Stories & Our Songs: The Celtic Support, Take Me To Your Paradise: A History Of Celtic-Related Incidents & Events, Walfrid & The Bould Bhoys: Celtic's Founding Fathers, First Season & Early Stars, and The Holy Grounds of Glasgow Celtic: A Guide To Celtic Landmarks & Sites Of Interest. These were previously sold in Waterstones and official Celtic FC stores, and are now available on Amazon.
