Celtic supporters always need a personality goal scorer. The traditions of the club demand attractive attacking football with loads of goals. The tradition was started by the great Celtic side of the 1890s and by Sandy McMahon in particular.

Born in Selkirk of Irish stock, Sandy McMahon first played for Hibs before, in late 1890, joining the new Celtic team which was beginning to make its mark on Scottish football and Scottish society.

With a particular ability to score goals with his head, but also a fine dribbler and passer of the ball, Sandy McMahon earned Scottish caps and very soon became a cult figure of the age, as Celtic made their mark on football.

Yet there was so much more to him than that. An erudite and well-read man with a wide knowledge of Shakespeare and Burns, Sandy McMahon was an excellent example of an urbane Victorian gentleman, as well as the most famous football player of his age.

All this is lovingly brought to life by famous Celtic historian David Potter who has already written similar biographies of men like Jimmy McMenemy and Sunny Jim Young.

No angle for correct throwing
Size: 1-pack, Size: 1-pack
This item does not work. It is about ) inches tall. It’s tiny to bend over and pick up the ball. Has no angel for the ball to throw accurately. Ball goes downward. Would not recommend

Happy pup. Worth it.
My dog loves this thing. It takes hardly any effort to launch the ball. Flick of the wrist kinda thing. The squeaky ball is her favorite but unfortunately you can't buy this brand of ball separately. It says compatible with any 2.5 inch ball but that's not true. We have a ton of Penn tennis balls and they are just slightly too big for this launcher. You can do it but it's a huge pain and hard to throw. Another issue is that when we first got it the handle didn't want to stay screwed together. After the first day of use and having to rescrew it together multiple times, the issue seems to have corrected itself? Either way, for the price with the comfy handle, very low effort throwing for big pay off, two balls included and the crazy excitement from my dog anytime we get near the thing. It's definitely worth it. I like it much better than the chuck it and stone random cheap brand we used to have. I'm going to try one of the balls recommended in the product pictures. I'll update if they work out.

Ergonomic and well made.
I have at least a half dozen ball launchers and this is the nicest one. As efficient as any of them and it feels the nicest in my hand. As long as you tighten the handle when you put it together, it will serve your puppy well.
