The man is a legend. He needs a statue in all seriousness. He kept our club as one club from 1888 unbroken. Paid the bills, done what he had to do, gave us the stadium we all take for granted. He is a ⭐
Fergus is part of History at Paradise and a Celtic fan was first in line of many to save our Celts. Born and bread in Kilsyth burn green. We salute you Lord Mcann
I've had the privilege of taking my son to celtic park for 17 years of his life and witnessed some tremendous results and memories that will live forever in our heats none of which would have ever been possible without Mr McCann hopefully 1 day there will be a statue of him at parkhead 🍀🍀 unbroken history HH
Total legend, As everyone says a statue should be put up outside paradise, alongside our other legend's, unbelievable what this man did,not only saving the club,but putting in place business plans,that are still successful today..god bless you Fergus
This man saved Celtic and is much a hero as Jock Stein and Brother Walfrid in my book' He was so right the Stadium had to be rebuilt or we would have had nothing. I would like to see some of the new development have a money making part called "The Bunnet" as a fitting tribute. He will always be remembered by Celtic fans as the man who saved Celtic.
A come back to this every couple of years. Great insight into how he done what he done. What an achievement. He will always be the main man in our history. Look what happened to the manky mob. They died we survived and thrived. Fergus a love you pal. A know you get a bad rap but you legacy will last forever. God bless you pal.
I cannot understand why Celtic football club have not got a stand named after this wonderful man who saved our club. I would even say a statue in honour of him please fans get behind this thought.
When common sense was needed and someone who could withstand the pressure of the situation and deliver on their promise, in stepped Fergus. He dragged Celtic from mediocrity and gave us back pride in our club. He never backed down from the Scottish football hierarchy and fought Celtic's corner till the day he bowed out. The new generation of fans should be grateful to this gentleman and should be schooled in what he has done for our club
Many many thanks to this wonderful gentleman, he knows what Celtic mean to us, because he feels the same, as he’s one of us, so thanks again.many many blessings.🙏☘️
What an absolute legend. Can’t overstate the importance of his involvement. You only need to look across the city to see how badly it could have gone. Should have a statue beside Brother Walfrid.
Can't recall if I've commented here before, but this man stands with the GREATEST CELTS. We have what we have because of him. Every time I see Celtic Park, I think of this man. Did what he said he'd do. Kept his word. Thanks, Fergus. Great Celt.
I remember Michael Kelly, going on about how he is perceived aesthetically, would be a major hurdle to him, (maybe not his exact words, but it is what he meant). Kelly might be right in the sense that despite McCann’s achievements, he is not overburdened by cheer leaders. I know that Jock Stein and the Lisbon Lions is probably the biggest source of pride at Celtic. But possible including the afore mentioned, McCann has achieved the most for the club. The Kelly’s were opportunist compared to him.
This man is the polar opposite from david murray, and thank God for that! Thank you Fergus, you are a massive part of our clubs history and as a matter of fact the father of modern celtic. We are forever grateful for all the very hard work
I was lucky as a teen-ager nearly leaving school, When he came. Glorious years were to follow! Wim Jansen! Venglos, Jorge cadetes first game as a sub, And controlling that pass over his head to chip in and send parkhead crazy in the new stand! Seville, Larsson, Burns, Van hooydonk, Di Canio, Johan Mjallby, Weighorst, Geeeez 💦🤤 Stubbs & The Rieper man I could go on and on. But Top of them all was Fergus. Took the club into the future 😊
First time seeing this interview which was good to listen and recall Fergus McCann at that time coming to Scotland and seeing all what he done for Celtic and himself in the process and he done a really great job and wish him all the very best . For me Celtics no 1 fan he is for doing such for the club with his own millions though being business minded he probs knew he was onto a good thing which later proved true as he done very well for the club and himself and then as he said when he arrived i shall stay for 5 yrs not one day before and not one day after when i shall then leave and he did what he said and then flown back to Canada with millions made for himself and getting Celtic a brand new stadium and people in board he Fergus McCann done got guys in who would look after the club and not have such happen which so near did and going bankrupt ..Fergus McCann all Celtic fans salute you take best of care 👍
McCann he rode the winds of change. And the things he,s done will long remain. he done Exactly what he said he would do. a 5 year plan. of which he was our Savior. he got us out of debt. And got us a winning team. and a new stadium. And then he left us in a far better state. if it was not for him we would have died. like Rangers. Hail Hail the bunnet.
29/12/2019,,,,3 hours to we play the darkside possibly go 8 points clear and well on our way to 9 in a row, a treble treble,Fergus McCann made it possible, i slated him at the time but he done all he said he would and now look at us, ,,,,,,,,,Glasgow Celtic more than just a football team, thank you Fergus
He is someone the blue half of Glasgow have never had, someone with integrity and foresight . He took a big gamble with his own money and it paid dividends for Celtic as a club and the support. He left a magnificent legacy and Celtic will do well to never forget it.
I do not even need to watch this vid, Fergus was way ahead of his time and he did what no one thought was possible. He is up there with Brother Walfrid, Jim McGrory and Jock Stien as far as I am concernerd
The saviour of the Celts " The Bunnet " Fergus McCann ridicule by the media and by Huns alike, but he achieved everything he set out to do Celtic are now thriving. Celtic should honour the man with a fitting tribute at Celtic Park we salute you, Fergus McCann
Love him or hate him he will go down in history as THE MAN WHO SAVED GLASGOW CELTIC from bankruptcy in 24 hours! He built a fantastic stadium and the foundations OF WHAT WE HAVE TODAY! And simply the next feasible move for a club of Celtics size is a move to the English leagues! We're too far a big fish in a ever dwindling pond! Wishful thinking I know but if Celtic had to get the revenue of what the English clubs get (And remember Scottish football gets a 10th of what the English leagues get!) we would be a massive,unstoppable force in Europe! We've got a fan base with or larger than your Barcelonas so we've got all of the above but politics stops this from happening,but for how much longer? Scottish football would die on its arse without Celtic or that other mob! But my loyalties lie with Glasgow Celtic and ITS GREATER GOOD!!!🍀
I'm embrassed and ashamed of way we treated that MAN AT TIME .. WE NEVER GAVE HIM AS MUCH CREDIT AS HE DESERVED .. WE COULD HAVE WENT WAY THAT MOB DID BUT HE SAVED US AND BUILT US THAT STADIUM AND WON US THAT TITLE WE SO DESPERATELY NEEDED N WANTED TO STOP .. WE SLAGGED HIM FOR HIS BISCUIT TIN MENTALITY AND STUFF BUT HE PUT US IN POSTION WE ARE TODAY EVEN .. HINDSIGHT GREAT THING JUST WISH WE HAD SHOWN HIM MORE RESPECT AT TIME TBH ..
Saved us and our history god bless Fergus for what he did. The club should never forget him and maybe a wee statue to remember him should b at celtic park. God bless u Fergus thanks
Total fantastic business man who put his money up and built a legacy that lives on. Shame on the clowns that booed him that was disgraceful and remember that he took on the SFA and won who else has done that? 🍀🍀🍀👏👏👏 Fergus Mcann
A lot has been made about erecting a statue in his honour, but listening to him and his modesty around his own importance, I think a simple bronze bunnet at the top of the front steps or somewhere else appropriate would be marvellous.
The wee man way the bunnet saved us big time build us the best & biggest stadium in Britain at the time. Is a shame some of our big players at the time turned us against him over contracts despite all he did for us. But time always tells the truth now the man is a Celtic legend & those players that turned us against him nobody's now wee Fergus will always be remembered forever He will never walk alone. Oh & it's cup final day HH COYBIG 💯🍀💚🍀🙏🙏✌️
What a guy ,I wonder if wee Fergus really appreciated at the time what a vicious bitter individual he was talking to.Oh how jabba must wish he had a real man like Fergus dealing with things at the bigotdome...........Karma is real.......btw.
Lubo was a gift from god but wee Fergus was also a gift from god. He came in and put in his own money and saved us from certain death. He was vilified when the three amigos left and i have to say i was angry as well but this man stuck to his guns and continued with the plan, he knew better than all of us. Our great stadium is a testament to his drive and ambition. He put Celtic back on the map of world football. The fans need to set up a go fund me to honour this man with a statue.
Just shows how much Michael Kelly was a scumbag, Playing on the loyalty of the supporters. Sadly when he stopped the 10 in a row the fans booed him, strangely enough there's no one out there with the balls to put their hand up. Brilliant man
He’s someone who saved our club …. End of …….!!! At the time he angered us …Now I understand …. But when everyone realises what happened to “the rangurs”…Our saviour 😊🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
What annoyed me is that half the stadium booed and jeered Fergus as he unfurled the league flag. They're all praising him now though. Lots of them have very short memories.
The wee man did exactly what he said he would do. He saved Celtic and he made money. Nobody does that in football. The man was brilliant throughout.
Yes,Pure stuck to his words.
The Rebels have won.
I know I'm kinda off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch new tv shows online ?
@Zachary Cohen Lately I have been using flixzone. Just search on google for it :)

@@PunisherFC79 A monster paedophile. Just like everything touched by #CelticThePaedophileClub
there's statues of Brother Walfrid,Jock Stein and wee Jimmy a think there should be one of wee Fergus he saved us from folding God bless you wee man
There should be...maybe there will be. After all, he shares the very same aspect of Brother Walfrid's time, only he had to shell out a vast sum.
I Agree.
@Steven Pettigrew Haha
Regarding titles. He DID say he would make us Champions in 5 years Steven, he did that too.
Wouldnt build a statue but 100% name the North Stand after him, dont know what the wait is.... Maybe to celebrate 10 in a row ;)
Fergus is part of History at Paradise and a Celtic fan was first in line of many to save our Celts. Born and bread in Kilsyth burn green. We salute you Lord Mcann
It was actually a guy called John Kean who put the cash up to the bank on that day,but he hardly get any praise
@@martinmckenna8834 Humm, not heard of him:-
personally; T.B.H.!!
100% man of his word. Thank you Fergus😉🙏🍀HH🍀

You are so right, Murry seems to have gone on the missing list after the Bankruptcy
I was lucky as a teen-ager nearly leaving school, When he came. Glorious years were to follow! Wim Jansen!

Some people are destined to be so significant, that they resonate forever. Hail to the Fergus, a Celtic legend like no other.

What a humble and honest man. Hail Hail Fergus
Legend, As sad is was to see Tommy Burns sacked it was the best decision in Celtics recent history as Fergus brought in Jansen who signed Larsson👏
The APE called Trainer,asking negative questions from start to finish. Fergus being cute bobbed and weived,and schooled him from start to finish.
God Bless this Man.
Lubo was a gift from god but wee Fergus was also a gift from god. He came in and put in his own money and saved us from certain death.

Brother Walfrid is the "heart and and soul of Glasgow Celtic..leat😢we forget "... Fergus Oohvah up the rah"..
Just shows how much Michael Kelly was a scumbag, Playing on the loyalty of the supporters. Sadly when he stopped the 10 in a row the fans booed him, strangely enough there's no one out there with the balls to put their hand up. Brilliant man
Love the voiceover man. Must have stung.
Great interview 👍
god bless him
Fergus was the most important person in the Clubs history. Big Jock gave Celtic a past but Fergus gave Celtic FC a future
Fergus some man
Visionary. Needs a statue next to Cesar. As important in the history of our club as Brother Walford
He’s someone who saved our club …. End of …….!!! At the time he angered us …Now I understand …. But when everyone realises what happened to “the rangurs”…Our saviour 😊🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Celtic would have been scraping the barrel without him. I'm not celic fan but his statue should be there already. That's a man who loved that club
Well done Fergus 👍
Stopped 10 in a row, built us best scottish stadium and left us financially sound and with a certain mr Larsson, enuff said eh, SHLvSLH.🎉
Thank you Fergus mc cann hail hail 🙏
God bless fergus hh tc joe dock
Fergus the great.
Like others have stated !! There should be a statue to this great man beside Brother walfrid
A forgotten hero who deserves a statue....without him Celtic would not be .
Fergus McCann looks exactly like Mr Garrison.
What annoyed me is that half the stadium booed and jeered Fergus as he unfurled the league flag. They're all praising him now though. Lots of them have very short memories.
James Trainer Is A Rangers Fan, And Now Work's For Rangers TV,
Who cares? It's Fergus that matters.
You'll find it hard to find a better run club than Celtic today.
