In their own ways these men achieved incredible things for Celtic, and the weren’t alone in doing so across one of the most astonishing eras in the club’s history. Now, renowned Celtic author Matt Corr has produced the definitive account of that time in his new offering “Celtic In The Thirties” – a two parter telling tales of McGrory, Thompson, Maley and so many other figures from our past.
