Glass, John - Kerrydale StreetJohn Glass

John Glass is commonly regrded as the man that did more than anyone else to turn Brother Walfrid's dream into a reality. No less an authority on Celtic than Willie Maley credits Glass as being the man to whom Celtic FC owes its very existance.

A strong and stocky man, Glass was a builder by trade. From proud Donegal stock he had a pressence and sense of authority which was impossible to ignore. Intelligent and hard working Glass worked day and night to ensure Celtic had a team and stadium to be proud of.

He would die in 1906 but his legacy will live forever in the shape of Celtic.
