This is a really interesting interview that Bernie Slaven gave me about his book Slaven Snaps, his Celtic supporting boyhood, how a phone conversation with his father's Celtic and Boro hero played a part in his move here..

The result meant it was too long to go in the fanzine, just over half went in the Boxing Day issue but here for the first time is the entire interview, with the Cleveland Hills behind us.
