In this interview special, we sit down with Celtic legend Paul McStay to discuss his crucial role as the new ambassador for the Season Ticket Alliance. Following a season marred by off-the-pitch frustrations, protests, and a fractured relationship between the board and the fanbase, Paul explains how Willie Haughey’s new initiative aims to bridge the gap by securing supporter representation directly on the Celtic PLC board.
