Spent some time with Ange Postecoglou this week - a fascinating bloke. We spoke about immigration, his inspirations and why #Celtic history chimes with his story. I made this with @83AdamC
💚Powerful. Emotional. Unmissable.
Ange Postecoglou sits down to give us an in-depth look into his life. From difficult times in Greece to moving to Australia, the @CelticFC manager tells us his story.

My thoughts are with the hamstrings and calves of the many 30-50 year old friends set to pull on the boots again for the Tennent’s Sixes this weekend. 🚑

Continuing making some short films with those in & around Scottish Football. The inspirational @MrGunny1963 is the latest person to be generous enough to spare me some time. Him on pride and heartbreak.

(Belatedly) watched the @BBCSportScot icons of football episode with Craig Gordon. Great access and a brilliant sequence of shots around the Scotland World Cup announcement 👏🏻
In the age of TikTok videos and aggregated content, proper journalism can struggle for oxygen and opportunity. The FIFA debacle has been a refreshing reminder of what can be achieved and why it’s vital to allow people to build up contacts rather than clicks. @martynziegler 👏🏻

From President Trump’s peace prize to the Folarin Balogun saga, the US tournament was the perfect opportunity for Fifa president to impress investors

Awfully sad. A sensational player who had an incredible career. Interviewed him in my very early days - one of the few times I’ve been starstruck 💔
Truly heartbroken to post this on behalf of the Keegan family...
It is with immense sadness that we announce that Kevin Keegan has passed away at the age of 75. The former England player and manager had been battling cancer and was surrounded by his wife and daughters in his final moments. Kevin, a double Ballon D’or winner, was a much loved husband, father and grandfather. The family would like to thank Kevin’s incredible medical team for all their support. This is a hugely difficult time and they are requesting space and privacy.
I wish people could appreciate how much time and effort goes into making the closing Vt for something like the World Cup. An unimaginable amount of shots to sift through, an almost infinite number of music tracks to consider using… today’s offering was great 👏🏻
Can the independent football regulator look into all this half time pish? If not their powers don’t go far enough…
Doesn’t happen often so it’s refreshing when top, top footballers take the shackles off and just start swinging…
For me there’s an argument he’s the best player Scotland produced during that period. Amazing career, but could have been even better without the injuries. Convinced he would have gone to a top 4 PL team from Sunderland if not for the 🚑 issues and been a CL regular. 🧤
