[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]With all the negative stories floating around cyber space; there is a real positive one; and once again it shows the feeling and compassion of the Celtic Support. When it comes to worthy causes; we are top of every league in the world.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]The famous Thai Tims of The Good Child Foundation are coming to sing at Celtic Park; they will be here for about three weeks in April/May. There will be about forty kids with ten teachers and guardians to look after them.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]The visit should be a trip of a lifetime for these kids; some of them come from very poor families; and a few have Down syndrome; The Good Child Foundation does a fantastic job with the kids.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]During their visit it is hoped the kids will visit places like Loch Lomond, Edinburgh Zoo, and Alton Towers; there is also a visit to Belfast planned in early May. The Association hopes they will be able to come to the Celtic Rally to sing for us.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]The visit is obviously going to cost a lot of money, it is hoped that as well as the cost of trip; money can be raised for Down Syndrome children in Scotland, Ireland, and Thailand; there will be a few events featuring the Thai Tims; I believe the main one will be in The Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]If anyone would like to make a donation it can be done in several ways; it can be done by online text through the link below; or through the Celtic Charity Fund; or through the Association.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]If anyone would like to book tickets for any of the Thai Tims functions; it can be done through Celtic FC or the Association. If you would like any further information; please feel free to contact me.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]Hail Hail.[COLOR=#000000:42d5aea0]The details of the online and text donations are here:

The Celtic Supporters Association

The Celtic Supporters Association was the idea of Willie Fanning whose dream became a reality back in September 1944.

These were dark days on and off the pitch with the Second World War still raging and in comparison to those horrors rather more trivialy Celtic were not providing much joy to its supporters and defeat was a regular experience. Indeed the idea of a supporters association came to 27-year-old Willie while watching the Bhoys get thrashed 6-2 at Hamilton.

Willie decided to write to the Daily Record calling on fellow Celtic fans interested in establishing a supporters club to get in touch. A total of 14 people replied. Consequently a meeting was arranged at St Mark's and St Paul's Hall, Chester Street in Shettleston. The meeting proved to be a success - a provisional committee was installed and Willie was elected as President.

By the time of the second meeting at the A.O.H. Hall in Alexandria Parade in Townhead the word had spread. The hall was packed and car loads of supporters from across Glasgow and beyond eager to attend created a traffic jam along the parade.

A constitution was drawn up which allowed the new organosation to become an amalgamation of supporters clubs. Within 12 months membership had rocketed to 700 and the association had won the official endorsement of Celtic FC who handed over the responsibility of distributing match tickets to affiliated branches of the CSA.

The CSA remains a strong and influential body. Apart from following Celtic in massive numbers it has a social club in Glasgow and its annual Supporters Rally is a highlight in the Celtic calendar.

True to the traditions of Celtic FC the CSA also has a proud and continued ethos of raising funds for charity.
