Excerpt: Dianbobo "Bobo" Balde (born 5 October 1975) is a French-born Guinean footballer. He has previously played for Mulhouse, AS Cannes, Toulouse, Celtic, Valenciennes and Arles-Avignon. Balde was also a Guinean international and has represented them 52 times scoring 2 goals. Balde started his career in 1995 at centre back for Marseille, where he stayed until 1997 but could not make the first-team breakthrough, so he had to leave his hometown club to join second division outfit FC Mulhouse for the 1997-98 season, staying only that year. When Mulhouse were relegated he joined AS Cannes on loan in 1998 where he had little success, in the league making 29 appearances and scoring 4 goals. He left Marseille, moving to Toulouse, whom he helped to promotion during the 1999-00 season. In total he made 52 appearances for Toulouse, scoring one goal. Balde signed for Celtic on 21 July 2001 and became a regular player in Celtic's team. Balde made 232 appearances (51 as a sub) during his spell as a Hoops' player. He made his debut on 8 September in a 3-1 win at home to Dunfermline Athletic. 4 SPL games later he scored his first Celtic goal on 20 October 2001 against Dundee United at Celtic Park. In that entire season Balde scored a total of 6 goals including one in the Scottish Cup final against Rangers when he rose above Lorenzo Amoruso to score from a Neil Lennon free kick from six yards, on the 50th minute. Celtic lost that game 3-2. Balde also scored in the League Cup semi-final defeat to Rangers. Balde scored his first goal of the 2002-03 season on 1 September 2002 against Livingston. He was booked in the first Old Firm game of the season which ended 3-3 but at the end of the season Balde was subsequently voted the Celtic Player of The Year for 2003 by the Celtic fans in which 40,000 Celtic fans voted. He was the inaugural winner of that award. In his acceptance speech he paid tribute to his team mates and manager Martin O'Neill. Speaking just after winning the award, Balde said
