I just did a good search and it looks like the emirates cup is on saturday afternoon starting at 14:00 and goes on through the afternoon so it looks like that is getting all the main tv coverage. Looks like it will be a streaming job.

Celtic are involved in CL qualification at present I think most will see it as a run out for both sides therefore not a an important match to cover

Yep and if their current scoreline keeps up they are really not going to care about the friendly. 1-2 down in Poland as I type.

Thats a relief. Historically these pre-season friendlies against Celtic can be quite rough affairs as they try and prove they can mix it with the Premier League.

It's 'Live' on Celtic TV by the looks of things. It'll cost you £40 for a season's membership, though it does come with the added bonus of exclusive highlights throughout the campaign of Celtic v St. Johnstone, Celtic v Ross County and Celtic v Inverness Caledonian Thistle amongst others.

Celtic lost the first leg of their CL qualifier 4-1

2nd leg is after the Spurs freindly.

Think they will play a 2nd string as they need to concentrate on the 2nd leg. Can't see us playing a strong side - although giving our WC returnees a run out

Thus will bw the 17th time Spurs have met Celtic in a friendly since the late 1950s. Spurs won the first three times but Celtic have beaten us 8 times, with us winning 5. This will be the 6th country and 9th city the two clubs have met in. USA, Canada, England, Scotland, Holland and Finland. Over 91k saw Cetic who were European Cup winners draw 3-3 with Spurs who were FA Cup holders in 1967, at Hampden.

Worth rembering that a Spurs X1 are going to Dagenham & Redbridge on 2nd August, same day the first team squad play Celtic.

As there is an u19's tournament going on at the same time, a number of last seasons Academy Year 2 will probably play there leaving a development squad of maybe Archer/McGee, Ball, McQueen Lameiras, Coulthirst, Coulibaly available for the Spurs X! game so a few of the players from the north american tour may be needed to make up the Spurs X1 side rather than playing against Celtic - and those might be interesting and IMO might include the likes of Falque, Fredericks et al
