Political Football: The Life and Death of Belfast Celtic
Barry Flynn
On 27 December 1948, rioting broke out during a match between Belfast Celtic and Linfield. Jimmy Jones, a prolific goalscorer for Belfast Celtic, was dragged from the pitch by the opposing fans, and beaten so badly that his career was ended. Like that of every football club, the story of Belfast Celtic is one of victories and defeats.
