Frank Collins (footballer)
Francis Joseph Collins (10 May 1893 – ?), was an Irish footballer who briefly played as goalkeeper for Celtic during the 1920s. Collins was a dual internationalist and played for both Ireland teams – the IFA XI and the FAI XI. He was born in Dublin, Ireland. Club career Collins first came to prominence while playing junior football with Jacobs from about 1918 onwards and was subsequently spotted by Celtic while playing for Ireland Juniors. His relatively late rise to prominence can be explained by his service during the First World War with the Royal Army Medical Corps and a subsequent serious injury he received while serving in France. In May 1921 he joined Celtic in time for an end-of-season match in Paris against Cercle Athlétique. The following season Collins provided cover for regular goalkeeper Charlie Shaw, making his Scottish League debut in a 4–0 win against Dumbarton on 6 September 1921.

Frank Collin
Francis Joseph Collin (born November 3, 1944) is an American former political activist and Midwest coordinator with the American Nazi Party, later known as the National Socialist White People's Party. After being ousted for being partly Jewish (which he denied), in 1970, Collin founded the National Socialist Party of America (NSPA). In the late 1970s, his planned march in the predominantly Jewish suburb of Skokie, Illinois was challenged; the case ultimately reached the United States Supreme Court to correct procedural deficiencies. In 1979 Collin was convicted of child molestation and sentenced to seven years in prison, and he lost his position in the party. After being released early on parole from prison, Collin created a new career as a writer, publishing numerous books under the pen name Frank Joseph. He wrote New Age and hyperdiffusionist works. Early life Collin was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, where he attended local schools. His father, Max Frank Collin, ...
