This the reserve game from 1985 when the big game at Parkhead was posponed in March ? Think we won 3-2. Saw the worst fight I've ever seen afterwards at an OF game outside the wee Rangers club. Crazy stuff. |

He is an unbeaten Celtic Manager who even got a result in Europe. His use of industrial language makes Big John Fallon's language seem angelic.

Slattery's Mounted Fut is a great lost 'B' side. That's brought back a few memories seeing that. |

I remember my Granda holding my sister when she was a few months old and singing this to her. Probably did the same with me ![]() Who was "Young" btw ? I can't say its a name I have heard a lot about. Kennedy as well. ![]() Obviously Young was a "right half" and Kennedy a left back ( I think ) were they any good ?

grew up on it.You've heard of Julius Caesar, and the great Napoleon, too, And how the Cork militia beat the Turks at Waterloo; But there's a page of glory that as yet remains uncut. And that's the martial story of the Slattery Mounted Fut. This gallant corps was organized by Slattery's eldest son, A noble-minded poacher with a double-breasted gun; And many a head was broken, aye, and many an eye was shut. When practicing maneuvers in the Slattery Mounted Fut. |

A classic. Some great rhyming. 'Down, down the mountains came the squadrons and platoons.....' was the start of the chorus if my memory serves me right or words to that affect. |

Ian Young http://www.thecelticwiki.com/page/Young,+Ian Biography Defender Ian Young came to Parkhead in June 1961 from Neilston Waverley.and made his debut at Hampden in the final of the Glasgow Cup on May 5th 1962 when the Celts drew 1-1 with Third Lanark. Originally a centre-half Young switched to full-back and by the autumn of 1963 he had succeeded Dunky MacKay as the Hoops right-back. However, those early days were to see Celtic at their worst and this was being reflected by an increasingly vocal support against the board, team and manager. We hadn't won a trophy since 1957, and we were very much in the shadow of more teams than just the huns. All was to change with the arrival of Jock Stein, and this allowed Ian Young a good opportunity as well. Ian is perhaps most famous for his performance in the League Cup Final of 23rd October 1965 against Rangers when in the first few seconds of the game he put in a "crunching" tackle on Willie Johnston the Rangers winger and this set the tone of the match in that there was no way this time that Celtic were going to lie down and be second best to Rangers brute strength.Celtic went on to win 2-1 with Ian putting through his own goal in the dying minutes. Many supporters to this day believe that this was the game were Celtic finally laid down the marker of dominance to come over Rangers which resulted in Nine Successive League titles in a row - "The Nine in a Row". He retained his place right up to the early days of the now legendary 1966-67 season when Willie O’Neill and then Jim Craig took over the right-back berth. Ian was unlucky that Jock Stein eventually settled on Jim Craig as he was possibly a better defender than Jim but certainly not as good at going forward and as Stein used "Cairney" as an overlapping full back he got the nod. If he had kept his place he would more than likely been part of the Lisbon Lions. An athletic and tough tackling player Young was a fine full-back and won a Scottish Cup winners medal in 1965 and a league championship medal for season 1965-66. After 164 appearances and three goals he left Celtic in May 1968 and went on to play for St Mirren.

Jim Kennedy http://www.thecelticwiki.com/page/Kennedy,+Jim Biography Jim Kennedy came from Johnstone and went to school at St Margaret's Johnstone. He had no desire to become a professional footballer until after his National Service, served in Belgium in 1952. He joined Johnstone Glencairn Juniors in 1955 before moving on to Duntocher Hibernian also in 1955. In fact reading about Jim Kennedy's life he really does come across as the reluctant footballer and though a lifelong Celtic fan he never really played till National Service. "Apart from playing in the Army, I had no urge to play football and my only interest had been following Celtic around the country. "But Johnstone Glencairn had been in a cup semi final on the Saturday and it finished level so the replay was scheduled for the Monday. "The game was played down at Kilbarchan and they wanted me to turn up and play, but I told them I wasn't interetsed. "One of the boys trying to persuade me to play was the father of Owen Archdeacon, but I didn't see playing football as a way of life." "Well in the end I gave in and played as Celtic weren't playing. "After the game Renfrew Juniors wanted to sign me as well, the boy kept shoving a piece of paper at me saying 'just sign this' but I said I wasn't interested. "He followed me onto the double decker with his form and he even came out to my house but I was determined not to sign. "However on the Sunday there was a chaop at the door, it was Teddy Smith who was a Celtic scout and his wife was Bob Kelly's sister. "He waved another piece of paper under my nose and this time I signed right away and didn't have to think twice about it." Having signed for Celtic in 1955 he was farmed out to Duntocher Glencairn and earned a reputation as a tough tackling no-nonsense left back. Having played a few reserve games for Celtic he came in for his debut against Partick Thistle on 23.4.56 where he was up against the gifted Jags and Scotland right wing Johnny McKenzie and Celtic duly lost 2-0 and his oonly appearance that season. He wasn't in the first team photograph in the 1956/57 season and did not make a second appearance till 2/1/57 in a 1-1 draw against Kilmarnock. He started to make a good number of appearances for the first team in the 1959-60 season. However it was not until April 1961 that Jim gave up his day job in an Elderslie carpet factory, having taken nearly six years to decide that playing football full time was a fit and proper way to make a living. The arrival of Tommy Gemmell on the scene saw him lose out for the left back position but he found a new role of a left half. With the emergence of the team that would become the Lisbon Lions and Stein's preference for John Clark, Jim saw fewer games and on 13th November 1965 he transferred to Morton. His time with Morton was highly successful and he led them to promotion in April 1967. He then, as might be assumed for a lifelong Celtic fan, bunked off at Morton to go and watch the team in Lisbon. "There was no way I was going to miss the game and the first person I met on the pitch during the celebrations was Stevie Chalmers who invited me into the dressing room. Once inside the first thing I noticed was that Ronnie Simpson was crying and then Big Jock told me to stay with the team and come back on the club flight. "I told him I had training in the morning but he said never mind all that just stay with us. But I had to get back as Morton manager Hal Stewart knew fine well where I was "It was no surprise to Hal that I wasn't going to miss Celtic in a European Cup final, but I thought that missing training the next day because I was celebrating with the winning team might be a bit too much." He retired from Morton in 1968 and was appointed Liason Officer between Celtic and the various Supporters Club. Being back at the club reawakened his taste and in August 1968 he re-registered as a player so that he could play in Celtic Reserve games (allegedly so he could play in the Reserve game against Morton in August). He finally retired from Celtic in 1995 but still remained on the scenes at Celtic Park helping out wherever he could. one of his duties was being in charge of the distribution of away match tickets for the various CSA and Celtic Supporter's Clubs before a proper Ticket Office was established at Celtic Park. Jim Kennedy was a Celtic player, fan and man through and through. He sadly passed away in December 2003
