Sportswriter and broadcaster. Dad. Struggling Christian. Listen to my Scottish football podcasts - interviews + debates - here:

[Paul W Mitchell @pwmcomms]

A superb broadcaster, his Trans Euro Express was a masterclass in presentation and how to engage people. He will be greatly missed.

[talkSPORT @talkSPORT]

We are heartbroken to share that our much-loved friend and colleague Danny Kelly has died, aged 69.

A cherished part of talkSPORT for so many years, Danny brought extraordinary wit, warmth and knowledge to our airwaves. His passion for football, music and life was infectious, and his kindness touched everyone around him.

“I love football, Stan. I love it.”

We loved you, Danny. We’ll miss you dearly.

Our thoughts are with Danny’s family, friends and everyone who loved listening to him.

Do you ever, ever weary of “the world is against Celtic”? Do people who know you tease you about it? Do people say “no amount of evidence will ever change his view…he has to see everything weighted against Celtic.”? It is genuinely incredible to me.
This was such a fantastic result for MON and Celtic. And all my media colleagues agree.

[Graham Spiers @GrahamSpiers]

That is sheer guts from Martin O’Neill and Celtic. Out of the game, brave substitutions, the Celtic Park crowd rouses itself and Besiktas are beaten. Celtic have given themselves a Euro fighting chance. CEL 3-2 BES

[Graham Spiers @GrahamSpiers]

@Oldtimeaccie No, I mean starting correctly, staying in the game, and then changing it for the right impetus. Has been done a thousand times in football, though fans won’t accept it.

[Graham Spiers @GrahamSpiers]

@FM2308 As usual…wrong. But I know by now you have an absolutely fixed world view. Hell freezing over would not change you. It has to be - it must be - the way you see it.

[Graham Spiers @GrahamSpiers]

@Geomax1888 Duran in my opinion still does not have 90 minutes endurance. It was totally the right call.
