With only 10 days to go of our crowdfunder, Producer/Director Ged Fitzsimmons spoke with Tino @CeltExchange on challenging unfair narratives and that the George Connelly story is one of triumph as well as tragedy.

[Newcastle United @NUFC]

We are devastated to learn of the passing of Kevin Keegan, one of the most iconic, influential and deeply loved figures in our club’s history.

Kevin was more than a legendary footballer and manager. He was the beating heart of Newcastle United for generations of supporters.

[George Connelly: Far From The Maddening Crowd @GConnellyFilm]

[Cosmic Cat Films @CosmicCatFilms]

A real pleasure to be reunited with my old sparring partner from our Cassius X days @Detroit67Book and the brilliant @comedyray on today's @offtheballbbc on @BBCRadioScot. We discussed all things George Connelly, what Norway means to me and I might just be the first ever guest to mention @systemofadown on the show.

Thanks million for having me on, guys.

[The HomeBhoys @HomeBhoys]
