On a daily quest for football news, with a new copy of FIFA on tow, (which he was struggling to grasp), SEAN O’DOHERTY came across a facebook page that he could only describe as doorway to a website that he described at the time as “Science for FIFA games”. A message later and the rest is history.
Sean has been obsessed with football from birth, born into a family of avid Celtic supporting maniacs, he could never escape the desire for football – watching, playing and learning about it in anyway possible.
He was a devout blogger of now defunct “The Celtic Blog”, it gained a large cult following and Sean thrived in the opinionated environment.
After a long journey through the educational ranks – degree honours in Sports Journalism and a masters degree in multimedia he now rests his hat here to give his all on the editorial side.
He can be found watching football, trying to master FUT or spending quality time with his family.
