NICE TOUCH: Brendan Rodgers sends letter to ex-Celtic star’s daughter congratulating her on marriage 22 years after dad left Hoops

Here’s a paraphrased version of the story with a warmer tone suitable for a blog or fan site, while staying informative:


“Once a Celt, Always a Celt” – Club’s Touching Wedding Tribute to Daughter of Ex-Hoops Keeper Jonathan Gould

It’s been 22 years since Jonathan Gould last wore the gloves for Celtic, closing out a six-year chapter in Glasgow that saw him lift six major trophies. But the Gould family’s connection to Celtic is still going strong.

Gould’s daughter, Louise Gould, who many fans will remember from her time as a presenter on Celtic TV during Ange Postecoglou’s tenure, received a heartfelt surprise from the club this past weekend. As she tied the knot with her partner Christian Fuller, Celtic sent a personalised wedding message—signed by manager Brendan Rodgers himself.

Louise, who has also worked in PR and media alongside Postecoglou at Tottenham Hotspur, shared the letter on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), calling it “the best wedding letter to receive.” Her caption summed it up perfectly: “Thank you Celtic. Once a Celt, always a Celt.”

The letter, titled “Congratulations on your Wedding Day,” read:

“On behalf of myself, the team, and everyone else at Celtic Football Club, we would like to wish you huge congratulations on your wedding day.
We hope it’s a joyous and memorable occasion as you begin your life together, with many happy years ahead.
Thank you for being such a passionate supporter of Celtic Football Club and may your journey together in life be like Paradise.
Enjoy your special day and celebration of love.
We wish you every health and happiness together.
Best wishes, Brendan Rodgers.

The beautiful gesture was a reminder that at Celtic, family always comes first—and once you wear the green and white or serve the club in any form, you remain part of something bigger.

Meanwhile… in transfer news:

Former Celtic loanee Jonjoe Kenny has sealed a move to PAOK Salonika in Greece. While speculation linked Greg Taylor to the Greek side, it turns out PAOK have swooped for Kenny instead, who previously had a short-lived loan spell at Parkhead during the club’s ill-fated 2020/21 campaign. Kenny, now 28, joins from Hertha Berlin after a three-year stint in Germany.

So while one Gould celebrates love and loyalty in green and white, another former Celt embarks on a new journey—proof that Celtic connections never quite fade.
