Any condescension detected in this post is fully unintentional and is solely the perception of the reader. If I think you're an idiot, I'll tell you that. You won't need to intuit it.
I think its teams who do not play in this country that he's interested in, teams that may have been started by ex-pats, etc. I'm sure the likes of Canada and the US must have a few.

Colin T played with Casement Celtic
Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

On the original point, you could include non-soccer teams like Boston Celtics (basketball).
Ya really have to feel sorry for Ossory. He has all of Borris' Two miles in him.
Ouch
Also you can never forget Mullagh in County Meath.
Oh no not them again
There's also Stalybridge Celtic.
How many teams are called Hibs or Hibernian in Ireland? Hibernian means Irish. There was a Cork Hibs and an Athlone Hibs. Any others?

Brother Walfrid, the Marist Brother who founded Glasgow Celtic was from Ballymote, Co Sligo which explains how Ballymote Celtic got their name.Originally posted by gustavo

Sean Fallon one of Celtic's most famous ever players and trainer of the Lisbon Lions was from Sligo Town.
This might explain the large number of Celtics in Sligo and Leitrim.

Accidents in the dark cause children.
I also should mention that Sean Fallon was educated by the Marist Brothers in Sligo Town where he learned about Brother Walfrid and the Marist connection with Celtic. There seems to be a fairly strong between Celtic and Sligo.
Ya I think the North West has strongest links Celtic then any other region in Ireland because of all the history.Originally posted by Paddy Ramone

Don't forget Castlerea Celtic in Roscommon I think they are one of the oldest teams in Ireland.
There's also Castlebar Celtic in County Mayo. They were founded in 1924. Michael Davitt the Irish patriot was born in Mayo and supported Celtic.
Athlone Town claim to be oldest club in Ireland. They were founded in 1887 the year before Celtic formed . There are Marist Brothers in the town.
I read somewhere that Brother Walfrid, the founder of Celtic was living in Athlone before he moved to Glasgow and may have been involved in the founding of the local football club. It mightn't be true though.
