Jim McGuinness will be back in Croke Park today to launch a partnership between Glasgow Celtic and the GAA.

Croke Park is now a familiar venue for the Glenties man and he is the ideal candidate to front the new link up between the two bodies.

McGuinness of course in his first year as a performance consultant with the Scottish champions and will be at Jones’ Road to promote the “Let’s Go – Lead Through Sport” which is a youth development scheme which both bodies have given the green light to.

The Examiner reveals that Celtic chairman Ian Bankier and GAA president Liam O’Neill will also be in attendance. McGuinness had  a swipe at O’Neill over his comments regarding Paddy McBrearty and an alleged biting incident from a Dublin opponent during the league, but the pair have reportedly put that issue to bed.
