"Kidnapped by the KGB." Matt McGlone of Celts for Change picks his Celtic dream team (the Lisbon Lions plus Kenny, King Henrik, Danny McGrain and Artur Boruc), then tells the story from his book Emotionally Celtic: Dynamo Kiev, 1986, a street curfew nobody told them about, a black car, a man with a minder, two and a half hours in the car park with Ken McCluskey of The Bluebells, and a pie, a bridie and a bottle of whisky. Plus how he wants to be remembered: "just as a Celtic fan that cared". From Straight Talk with Peter Martin, first published in September 2026.
