About Charlie Nicolas

Celtic legend, playing for a number of England and Scotland’s leading teams, Charlie Nicholas was one of the most recognisable footballers of the 1980s.

An exciting forward, Charlie would enjoy an illustrious career in the limelight of professional football. A wonderful sports speaker for events, Charlie has an abundance of anecdotal tales at his disposal that can be used to entertain and engage with audiences, making every audience member resonate with a part of the story.

Beginning his career at Celtic as a 21-year-old, Nicholas was considered the most exciting emerging talent in British football. His first spell at Celtic saw him appear 74 times for the club. During the 1982-1983 season at Celtic, Nicholas scored almost 50 goals in all competitions winning both the Scottish PFA Player of the Year and Scottish Football Writers’ Player of the Year awards. This rich vein of form lead to a tremendous amount of interest from a number of England’s leading clubs such as Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal all offering him a contract.

With a goal almost every two games for the side, Nicholas had proven his reliability once again, a trait he would uphold until his retirement from the professional game in 1996.
Nicholas then returned to Celtic for a couple of seasons before a short spell at Clyde where he would retire as a player. A player of great quality and flamboyance, he had fans gasping with excitement and expectation whenever he touched the ball.
