Is this going to be a thing now or are we borrowing this song for a temporary wind up?

Morning all, Lubo Moravcik was a technically gifted player who was two footed and able to trap a ball instantly. On one occasion he demonstrated a method of getting a high ball under control that I haven't seen before or since...

Morning all, someone said yesterday that Maeda's second goal in midweek was the best Celtic team goal he had ever seen. Well, I think Celtic of 1986 might say, 'hold my beer!'

What an experience for a lad of 20, Callum Osmand is a player I have high hopes for in time. Born in Jersey, he played at youth level for Wales but the rules have changed and he can only be capped at full international for England.

The ball boys seemed to enjoy that goal :-)

Few team goals in Celtic's history were as poetic as this one. Was it really 37 years ago!

That outside of the boot pass from Kuhn to Kyogo was outstanding....

That old classic piece of commentary, 'Whits the goalie daen, Tom?' :-)

Is this the best Glasgow derby goal of them all?

That classic piece of commentary.... 'Whits the goalie daen, Tom?' :-)

Absolute scenes behind that goal. Few things in life release that pent up emotion &amp; passion like a last gasp winner...

Moussa Dembele and the double nutmeg, more remarkable that he did it with a back heel.

Morning all, Celtic defeated a good Anderlecht side 3-1 in November 2003. When you watch those games now you can see the pace and drive Celtic played at then. The team had had plenty of firepower but that midfield was strong too.

Celtic giving Manchester City a run for their money in the Champions League. Those two games (3-3 &amp; 1-1) were very competitive despite English pundits suggesting we'd get battered. I forgot who scored City's goal in Manchester, turns out it was a familiar face...

Possibly the best angle I've seen of Daizen Maeda's stunning goal against Rangers. Good scrapping by Maeda and McGregor to win the ball back at the start of the move.

Morning all, 50 days since this and not a day has gone past without it being on my TL somewhere :-)

Are we officially adopting this song or just saving it for the wind up at Ibrox? :-)

Following UEFA's absurd decision to make Celtic play Rapid Vienna 200 miles from Glasgow back in 1984, 51,500 fans showed up at Old Trafford to back the hoops. One moment decided the tie. Aitken hits the post &amp; Rapid break to score. I'm sure a few of you were at this game?

Was Archie Gemmill's goal for Scotland against Holland in the 1978 World Cup the best ever by a Scotland player?

Next weekend in Glasgow will see a few thousand folk exercise their right to march through the streets and celebrate their 'culture.' Not a bad day to go hillwalking.

Old Celtic Park, Terry's Tattoo shop, The General Wolfe pub, the Grange bar, the Straw House, the Four ways, the Wee Mans, erra Spearmint chewing gum and Macaroon bars, waiting outside the pub for your old man, the songs before kick off, the roar as the team comes out the tunnel.

Morning all, ten long months of football and it all came down to the final seconds of the season. A poor delivery from the free kick and Hearts are undone. A quite remarkable ending to a season...

Morning all, in April 1988 Celtic faced Hearts at Hampden in the Scottish cup semi-final. 66,464 fans saw the Hoops trail 0-1 into the 88th minute and then this happened...

Morning all, we might be missing the club football already but the World Cup will keep us going. Am I right in thinking that most fans put their club first in terms of importance when it come to football?

Gary Hooper popping up with a last gasp winner against St Mirren. I recall the stress of that game &amp; wondering if the goal was ever going to come.

Morning all, it was on a wintry day in 1981 that Celtic found themselves a goal down to Rangers. That Celtic team, never one to shirk a challenge, rolled up their sleeves and got stuck in...

Celtic Park tuning up for a derby game in 2022. Those games are rarely played at night and I thought that one had a European tie feel about it. Celtic won 3-0.

Spanish football fans asked to identify the badges of clubs from the UK. The wall to wall coverage of the EPL made the English clubs easier to name. Interesting responses for the SPFL clubs...

Paddy Power poking fun at the Glasgow footballing rivalry. I'm sure there are plenty of folk out there sharing their lives quite happily with someone from the other side? :-)

Morning all, Celtic Park has seen quite a few tifos over the years but that night when Barcelona were our guests in 2012 lives long in the memory. Celtic Tito Vilanova said: “I have been lucky in my career to have been to many grounds, but I have never seen anything like it. .”

Neill Lennon on Open Goal explaining why the wily Chris Sutton slapped David Beckham during the Giggs testimonial...

''The Celtic, we’re the best team in Glasgow, And we’ve done it all in Europe, when we won in Portugal, With Cesar, Bertie Auld and big Jock Stein, when we brought the cup to Parkhead, and it still feels like a dream...''

Absolute scenes behind that goal. Few things in life release that pent up emotion & passion like a last gasp winner...
