Okay, so I’ve been digging into the history of Celtic FC’s head coaches, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride! I started out by just wanting to know who the current coach was, but then I fell down a rabbit hole and ended up looking at every single manager they’ve ever had.
First off, I learned that Celtic has had a total of 19 full-time managers since they started. The first one was a guy named Willie Maley, and he was in charge for the longest time ever. I guess they really liked him!
Then I started looking into the current staff. I found out that there were some coaches for different teams, like the U18 and U17. It took some time to get all of the names.
- U18’s Head Coach: Darren O’Dea
- U18s Coach: Grieg Robertson
- U18s Goalkeeper Coach: Ryan Marshall
- U18s Physio: Brendan Culhane
- U17s Manager: Michael O’Halloran
After that, I got curious about who’s considered the best Celtic manager of all time. Turns out, most people think it’s Jock Stein. I read up on him, and yeah, he did some pretty amazing things during his time.
And then, of course, I had to find out about the current manager, Brendan Rodgers. It seems like he’s doing pretty well, especially after winning the 12th Scottish Premiership title in 13 years. Sounds like he had to prove himself this season, which must feel pretty good right about now. I found out that when he was manager before, he won three SPL championships out of five, and even got the team to win a domestic treble in his first season. Now, that’s impressive!
Honestly, the whole process was a bit messy. I was just clicking around, trying to piece everything together. Some websites had information on all the managers, while others only focused on the current staff. And then there were articles about specific managers, like Jock Stein and Brendan Rodgers, which were interesting but also kind of a distraction.
But hey, I eventually got all the information I was looking for, and then some! It was a fun little research project, even if it was a bit chaotic. Now I feel like I know way more about Celtic FC than I ever thought I would. Maybe I should start following them more closely now!
