Celtic

his week Harry is joined by another man from Celtic's recent history, but this time it is one of the more controversial figures - former general manager Jock Brown.

 

At the club for just for 17 months, his tenure coincided with the final push of the failed Murray regime to achieve ten in a row and consequently this period also saw the hight of the media campaign to unsettle Celtic.  Many would argue Fergus assisted that campaign by dismissing Tommy Burns and then appointing Brown along with "the worst thing to hit Japan since Hiroshima" in a very different structure to anything else in British football.

 

Those around at the time will recall the events and will have their own recollections - this is Jocks.

The Celtic Underground Podcast No.210 (a) - Jock Brown , General Manager Part 1

Hello, Adam Buxton here.

In 2006 Joe and I put out 20 short podcasts which included conversational moments from our first ever radio show, on London's Xfm, Saturday mornings on and off between 2004 - 2006. As pickings from the radio show were often slim, we'd record other bits in our own time, hence the bad language.

This is a compilation of some of my favourite bits.

Adam records the intros and outros for most episodes while walking with his dog friend Rosie in the East Anglian countryside where he lives with his wife and three children. 

Adam has appeared in films such as ‘Hot Fuzz’, ‘Stardust’ and ‘Son Of Rambow’ as well as a variety of TV shows in the UK. Since 2007 he has hosted ‘BUG’, a live show that combines music videos and comedy that became a TV series on Sky Atlantic in 2012. From time to time he also does live shows featuring just his own material. Along with lifelong friend Joe Cornish he also is one half of award winning TV, radio and podcast duo Adam & Joe who have worked together since 1995.
