MATCHDAY HOSPITALITY at CELTIC PARK
Vložit

- I went to Parkhead for Celtic v Hearts in the Scottish Premiership.
Instead of the usual matchday experience, I decided to buy a hospitality ticket in the Kerrydale Suite. Is the price worth the experience at Celtic Park? Let me know in the comments!

Where else should I try matchday hospitality?
Easter road
East End Park
Emirates Stadium
Cappielow
how about a vlog at Hashtag united who has the best winning record out of all the leagues 19 league games unbeaten great vlog as always
Thank you for a really gr8 video - very interesting and captivating! I couldn't take my eyes off of any segments; well done! I can see, if one is a major Celtic fan and well-enough off financially, that paying such a price for that kind of experience may prove worth it every once in a while. I'm easy to please- just give me decent seats and a fair view of the game/match, and I'm happy. The comraderie with the fans in the general stands offer its own unique atmosphere in itself, which is also a lot of fun. And that leads me to mention your random fan interviews you had in this video: I loved those! They really capture what being a fan is all about; and one could tell the kids were so very excited about being on camera and offering their match insights & predictions!! Great job!!!
Very happy to have found you and your Footy Adventures channel,
Quite sincerely,
Martin & Buggles from Pittsburgh, PA USA
Yet another great video, Sam! Cheers for all you're doing for football in Scotland **at ALL levels**. Chapeau, mate! Gerri in Japan.
Thank you Gerri! Beith one week, Celtic hospitality the next haha
Last time I was at Celtic Park was when they beat my team St Johnstone 2-0 to win the league and stop Rangers winning 10 in row, Wim Jansen was the manager I think. When the goals went in I had never experienced a feeling like it before, the stadium was actually jumping mental.
Great content lad all the best.
I REMEMBER THAT GREAT DAY AND CELTIC WINNING THE LEAGUE. A GREAT NUMBER OF US CELTIC FANS WERE AT THE FRONT OF CELTIC PARK TUNING IN ON THE RADIO. MAY 1998. HAIL HAIL THE CELTIC.
@@vincentobrien7098 yeh when we were leaving the stewards were selling access to Celtic fans for the celebrations ha ha
I was there. Rid hot day. NEVER forget it. 🇮🇪👍🇮🇪
Hi Sam, Fantastic video, I myself used to work at Celtic Park and in the Kerrydale Suite, we always tried to set high/good standards there and it was a good place to work.
Great video love the stuff you do...anyway i went back to England ( i now live in Australia) for my mums birthday...and my team Oldham Athletic!!...i enquired about match day hospitality...and was told it's 50 pounds including a great 3 course meal and seats...(my 18 year old daughter was with me and she's never seen a football match!!)...but they said my 90 year old mum was free!!! What a great experience and our new owner Frank Rothwell came in and said hello!! I actually interviewed him for my radio show back in Oz...Wish i could put up a photo for you...anyway keep up the good work and get back down to Oldham and see the Revolution!!!
Another excellent video. You do great work to show the positives of Scottish football. I also love that its never about you but the fans you interview and the experience. Top work Sam
Great Video of your visit to Celtic Sam was over there in 2022 twice last year one of the best Stadiums for athemsphore alone is top class did the tour was top class. I'm over St Patrick's weekend. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 brilliant video way I was treated by the celtic fans is top class.
Loved the video mate, could not recommend enough going up a floor to the no7 club(the one you were pointing at when you first went to the seats). it is by far one of the best experiences in British football(Value for money). Ive met many a legend up there from Danny McGrain to Berty Auld. the 4 courses of food are phenomenal. its free bar and food. you even get these steak pies at half time if your stomach isnt already full🤣Simon Donnelly and Tom Boyd normally do pre match half time and full time entertainment with the MotM coming up to say a few words after the game. Definitely give it a go when you next get a try, you wont be disappointed!🍀
Followed Celtic home and away my whole life, crazy to see how the other half live. Up the good guys 💪🏼🇮🇪
Good video Sam , I’m thinking of taking my elderly father to a game and this was very informative for me so thanks -HH 🍀
Great video again, it was good to see this side of the game ...
Sam has made me realise how underrated Scottish football is.
who do you support?
Underrated how? The same 2 teams dominate every year slaughters Sid’s that would struggle in English League 1.
@@beds139 The last couple years Man City and Liverpool have been the only 2 teams to win the english prem, Bayern always win the Bundesliga, PSG with Ligue 1, Real Madrid and Barcelona.
@@planetceltic4126 Look at the Premier League table . Also why do 50000 of you get hard ons when you beat teams on a level with Morecambe😱
@@beds139 look at the money the premier league get. u get more for being relegated in england than you do for winning the treble in scotland, Not to mention Celtic have a remarkable record against England opposition. getting draws against an unbeaten (at the time) man city, beating Man Utd etc.
Sam I really hope Celtic and every other club in Scotland treats you really well! I've been in the executive box at Ibrox, but never managed at Celtic park. Keep up the great content!
Thanks mate! Everyone's always been really nice. I'll need to try more hospitality tickets at other stadiums within Scotland
@@FootyAdventures It's behind the goal not middle of the pitch!!!
@@FootyAdventures
Come to Greenock morton hospitality. You get a free half time shot o heroin.
Sam, great video, and a great promotion of what fans can expect at Celtic Park if they get the hospitality package.
The price may seem high, but I guess that’s all relative to your income, experience, and expectations. Here in the USA, it’s difficult to even walk in the door at most sporting events (NFL, NBA, NHL primarily) for £98. I was fortunate enough to visit Celtic Park for a game several years ago, and I was pleasantly surprised how affordable everything was, even for a European night. If I ever get back to Glasgow, I’ll definitely be booking one of the hospitality packages!
One of my favourite moments at Celtic park is also standing behind the goal with my dad when Nakamura scored that wonder goal against VanDeSar.
Keep up the good work with your coverage of Scottish football.
His “coverage” is just the Glasgow teams 90% of the time
Haha.. been watching your vids for a while and I'm actually in this one just in front of you. Was over from Ireland. Mad.
Love your channel so unbiased.
I wish you all the success in the world.
Great review Sam ! Unfortunately when you are a captive audience expect to pay far above the normal. When I was your age back in the sixties, the most you could buy was a pie and "or" a Bovril. Sadly the pies at Parkhead in those days were under cooked and not far from raw. The best pies in Scotland were at Fir Park, Motherwell. Where they baked them till they were crisp and brown. At least you got a wonder goal from Haxa. To take the edge of the price.
I was at the game and also paid £98 for the hospitality ticket. I do this to have somewhere warm to hang out pre game. There is the Sports bar but space is limited and often the place is full before I get there from NE Scotland on a supporters bus.
You were a few rows in front of me. I missed Kyogo's goal thanks to the big guy who stood up as the pass was made to him.
The fee for hospitality is high considering that food and drink has to be paid for on top. It is a nice atmosphere in the Kerrydale suite, and worth it as the odd treat for me.
The main thing was....we won !
Cheers for this vid Sam! Great as always. Thinking of taking my dad over for one of these hospitality games, he's 72 so hiking the stairs of the regular stands isn't as much an option anymore, but this seems fantastic. Would dream of doing one of these vs. Rangers but I'd imagine tickets are like gold dust 😂
Cheers again Sam! 💚🍀
They have lifts in these hospitality areas. Also if you ever buy tickets for the section 121 near the front, you could ask at the big gate thing outside if your dad can enter there and just walk to his seat without going up stairs and down stairs to get in. They let disabled people in there and its also used for blind and wheelchair access to the front of the North stand so they probably wouldn't have a problem.
@Celtic Barry This is brilliant mate, thanks very much! Mistakingly booked 2 for us to go watch us vs. Hibs back in October and it was in section 409, which had a lift to access, but the row was right up top and the walking distance for him was a lot. This is great though, thanks very much pal. HH 🍀
£8.50 for that meal is a total scam. No more than £2 worth including cooking at bulk buy catering prices... They must be paying Ang's wages out of that racket!
You are just jealous coz you have no money and no job ya boaby!😁
Who gives a shit, it’s a day out at ur favourite club. Don’t be such a tight ass😂
Still not as bad as oweing 60 quid for face painting....
@@markoneill8188 😂😂😂😂 or starting a new club and in 2023 owing 78 million to investor's
got mad respect for you and your coverage of scottish football, genuine legend
Great coverage when 90% of his “coverage” is just the Glasgow teams
Just took you to 1000 likes my friend, keep up the great content!
Another cracking video mate!
Thanks a million for your mentioning & remembering of our football player Shunsuke Nakamura! Most of us (Japanese fans) respect him very much because he had provided us huge fantastic dreams so many times. It's so pleasure for me! Please, keep to love Kyogo as well!
I’m really hoping you read your comments, honestly mate I’ve not even watched this but I happened to watch your video from the Cup Final at Hampden and honestly was obvious how much you appreciated being in Hampden as a part of the media..could see it on your face,you were buzzing talking to Ally McCoist and I’m a Celtic season ticket holder but was just brilliant to see how you got caught up in The Best Derby in The World 🙌.. But it’s even better at Celtic Park ☘️..Both Celtic and Rangers get bad press so it was brilliant to see you had a class day! ( JUST DONT GO TO IBROX) 🤪
Dearie me. Get yourself back along to Cappielow for the hospitality there Sam. You will love it
Did the hospitality a good few times about 10-12 years ago and it was around 60 quid, which at that price could afford to do a number of times a season. Last time I did it was more in the £80 range and that was maybe 4 years ago? Don't know about paying nearly £100 for that same experience for a regular league game. Other than perhaps a one-off treat.
Every Derry city fan knows you ! You were awfully kind .wish you great success because you actually love what you do ❤
So many Aussies watching this and planning bucket-list trips right now
I was in the Kerrydale Suite for a European tie 3 years ago. Tom Boyd held the door open for Me 😮
No doubt one of Tom's highlights 😁
HH
Love the Celtic videos
Thank you!! More to come...
My time in a box at Melchester Rovers was out of this world and although old Roy was always sublime he was just awesome that day, and I'm conscious that I had a massive amount of crack and that could have obscured my judgement but its just so moreish.
Gimp
We usually only started 2 of Larsson, Sutton and Hartson except the 2003/04 season, Chris Sutton played in centre-midfield in a 4-4-2 with Neil Lennon and Thompson and Petrov on the left and right, Sutton actually had his highest scoring season for us that season also despite playing deeper and won POTY. He scored 24 goals basically in a kind of Lampard role.
Used to play
Douglas
Balde Mjallby Valgaeren
Agathe Lambert Lennon Thompson
Petrov
Larsson Sutton
With Hartson rotated with Sutton Lambert also rotated with Petrov/Agathe.
To then in 2003/04
Douglas
Agathe Balde Varga McNamara
Petrov Lennon Sutton Thompson
Larsson Hartson
That photo is from the 2003/04 season as we are wearing the kit released in May 2003.
haha and that was the last Championship Manager i ever played... for a few years after that and never since! happy days ;O)
Great video well done 👏
Another great video. Keep them coming!!!
Thanks! Will do!
I was in the cheap(£35) seats in the upper tier above you for this game. Celtic were not at their best but at least they got the win. I have done the hospitality in the North Stand before and it was much the same as you experienced. It was decent enough but maybe worth paying a bit more for hospitality that includes a free bar and a pre-game meal.
I was there 3 times & what surprised me was lack of choice on the food menu, one list of starter, main course & pudding? but, if they didn`t suit you, the chefs would come to an arrangement with you & cook something that suited you! I never had a problem with the food on offer but I did think it was a bit odd, & the bar was free (Yippee)
I'm an Arbroath fan and I must admit, I love the food there, especially the hospitality suite. Great for a part time team
What hair gel do you use?
I went with my son to Dundee United hospitality in the Celtic end. The package was 180 pounds each. We got program and 3 course meal and 5 free pints. Also a pie at half time. The game ended in a draw which basically guaranteed Celtic the title with way superior goal difference. Bit expensive probably overall but not season ticket holder so best way of getting away tickets. Really enjoyed the day. Love your videos..
Wow, the price is about half of what I expected,... I think I'll give it a go next time I'm back in Scotland.....
(Pete Mc) Thanks Sam I'm coming up from Bristol for the Hibs game on 18th March. We have 30 coming up. Bristol Celtic Supporters Club. We're doing the same deal as you Sam so thanks for the video
1:30 you just know that he was about to segue into talking about the Billy McNeill banner (on the other side of the stadium) then turned round and realised it was Callum McGregor on the banner 😂😂
Being in the stadium for that game - it was as good as it gets.
oof £98. That’s a shocking price and I say that as a Celtic fan.
I remember it being around £80-85 a couple of years ago. A 20% hike seems steep. It is brilliant though with a bit of comfort beers pies etc at half time
Cost a living and prices for food have to be takin into account these shity days.Food prices r just mad,and the rest like,staff wages.Wonder how much sunny Govan charge?dont say £1 for everything! lol.
Thanks for coming 💚
6:20
Fairly simple Sam in a 4-3-3 .
You would deploy the Fullbacks as Wingbacks and dispense with the two wingers to create the overlap and width.
As Klopp did and does at Liverpool.
That food is a total rip off.
Probably cost the best part of £1 to make it.
Although it could be argued that you could buy eight and a half of the worlds most successful football clubs for £8.50 in 2012. 🤷🏻♂️
The food/drink kiosks I believe is leased, and you should have just waited till halftime, my man. Nice to see though.
Looks class
When I went in the hospitality section I found that the attmosphere round there isn't as good and it has alot more sort of tourist fans
The locals could not afford those prices.
Any chance of doing Queen of the South or Albion Rovers hospitality?
No chance lol this guy is Celtic through and through now.
Apart from the chicken and handful of chips, it looks like a pretty good deal. Everyone watching probably realises it won't be the same as a typical matchday experience. Interesting look behind the scenes.
Really hopiing you come on a us trip at some point and check out clubs here like the 1st mls club columbus crew
Sutton played Centre mid in some games that he and Larsson and Hartson started in. Normally a 352 👍
In the 2003/04 season he played centre-mid the whole season and won POTY also scored his most goals in a season that season, that season it was in a 4-4-2 though.
Also Larsson was pretty much given a free role and would come deep to get involved in the build-up so of the 3 Hartson was the only real out-and-out striker.
Why a game! Imagine the difference it would make to these clubs if the supporters turned out like this every weekend, they were phenomenal.
Great video👍, I'm a season ticket holder who believes our catering is poor with extremely high prices. I did the hospitality a few years ago and my experience wasn't great for a variety of reasons, it's seems to have gone a up a notch or so from what I witnessed in your report. I'm not impressed with £98.00 for a free pie, coffee and padded seating, and £8.50 for your snack is ridiculous. It would appear to be busy, so in essence it's what fans are happy to pay for is the conclusion I take from the report.
I think it would be good to try one of the lower leagues teams maybe second division
How do you fit Larsson Sutton and Hartson in a team? Larsson has a free role, Sutton fits in and Hartson runs as fast as his legs can carry him.
Glad you enjoyed the experience at the home of the champions! :)
Yeah his weekly trip to shithole park as he’s a Celtic fan even tho he claims not to be
@@QueenLizzy1926 i remember your mum.
@@shirtfanatic5519 really? So you went to prison?
Is their anyway we can suggest clubs/games to go too besides the CZcams comments? I have one in mind 😊
Is the San Siro tour video coming soon?
Yep, that'll be my next video that comes out :) Either tomorrow or Saturday
Don’t bother with the food in the Kerrydale suite, pretty poor.
Also make sure you get to the half time food promptly as it runs out really quickly. I missed out on the complementary pie 😂
The staff are so friendly there however
Hospitality at hearts get a welcome drink and all drink and 2 course meal with the ticket and a pie and more drink at half time 2 bottles of wine at the table as well.. I thought celtic would have had all.that and more or os there different packages?
Hospitality isn’t for me but nice to see a Scottish video sandwiched between Italy & Northern Ireland!
Flippin heck, that chicken and chips was absolutely dire
Jesus! that was expensive!! Guess it has changed since I was last in there. You had have to pay for your food prematch but it wasn't so expensive. The bevvie was on a par with Glasgow pubs. At half-time you had as many pies/sausage rolls/bridies as you could eat at no cost. It was an afternoon match that I was at but not sure if it'd make a difference.
Be cool to do other teams hospitality, looks like Hibs have update there’s and I think hearts have some good scran too
Give partick thistle hospitality a go , done it last year for my father in laws 70th was a brillant day out food was amazing and a pint was waiting on us coming in
Partick hospitality is even more!! £105 for a division below!!
@@cathaljosephquinn they charge more cause they get no money from the SFA like most championship teams cause Celtic takes the majority of the shares
@Mr Tinkle I'm trying Patrick's hospitality next week... it has a meal beforehand included, so perhaps that's the reason it's more expensive, but the standard of football will not be anywhere near my beloved Celtic...
i was at this game and the bit where you were sitting at i was there but a few stairs down
Hope you weren't the guy with the locker room language !
@@den264 no it wasn’t me
What’s the dress code for there ? Are trainers allowed ?
i believe Partick Thistle is an enjoyable xperience
Is it unusual to have the posh seats behind the goal ??
Nice one 🇾🇪🇾🇪✌️🔰🔰🔰
Great hospitality my brother 💙👍🏻⚽
We want the best players so all these offers and charges helps provide the profits the club need to do this so if you can afford it why not. 👍🏻🍀
Wherever
£8.50 for that is fkn shocking. Better off getting a chicken nugget supper from the chippy fs and am a Celtic fan as well 🍀
Sam I’ve been to the kerrydale suite
Good vid Sam, but £8.50 for crap food mate, no chance..
Never done hospitality, I just go in the stands and the atmosphere pays for itself
Way too much for a couple of coffees and a cold pie!
Scottish football is brilliant, and I'm English.
i loooooooooooooove your videos
Bit Sutton was midfielder then Sam
Forest Green Rovers would be interesting.
And a better standard than Scottish football
omg such a meager amount of chips and nuggets at that price! Geezus!
It’s expensive but tell me a football ground that won’t be , some proper restaurants would charge you dearer for that😂😂, foods amazing that’s the benefit you won’t be let down with what you buy but it’s on the dearer side like everywhere else especially this day in age.

Sutton played CB and Midfield quite a lot after Hartson joined.
6:43 that chicken and chips is really disappointing for £8.50 🤑 especially with a plastic tray and cutlery rather than real and having to pay for it on top of the ticket price

Absolutely shocking! £8.50 fur that! 🙈

I think the price for the hospitality is very good but £8.50 is a bit steep but you would pay more for the same at McDonald’s or Burger King me I would rather have waited till halftime and scarfed a couple of free pies and a bovril anyway keep up the great work brother hail hail
