Celtic FC On This Day revisits all the most magical and memorable moments from the club's glorious past, mixing in a maelstrom of quirky anecdotes and legendary characters to produce an irresistibly dippable diary of Hoops history - with an entry for every day of the year. From humble yet proud origins, charitably assisting in feeding the poor of Glasgow's East End, the club is now a global institution with a worldwide following. Along the way, the green-and-white faithful have witnessed famous European exploits, record winning runs and attendances, countless triumphs on the Scottish scene and the one-off glories of all-British victories in 1902, 1938 and 1953 - all featured here. All-time greats including Jimmy Quinn, Patsy Gallacher and Jimmy McGrory, Billy McNeill, Kenny Dalglish and Henrik Larsson loom larger than life, appearing alongside all-conquering Celtic heroes such as Willie Maley, Jock Stein and Martin O'Neill.

David Potter has written over 20 books on football and cricket, centred mostly around his greatest sporting love, Celtic FC. He has penned acclaimed biographies of Willie Maley, Jimmy Quinn, Jimmy Delaney, Bobby Murdoch, Patsy Gallacher and Tommy McInally, and recently co-authored the Encyclopaedia of Scottish Football with Phil Jones.
