🗓 On This Day 30th July 1991
Celtic played Arsenal in the Paul Davis Testimonial match. 2-2 the scoreline.
It is not only remembered for 10,000 Celts travelling and C. Nicholas scoring on his return to Highbury.
Most notably the unusual kit combo of home kit with away shorts.
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.
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 & Rapid break to score. I'm sure a few of you were at this game?
A new Celtic signing is unveiled at Parkhead before the Parma friendly in August 1997. Turns out he was not bad. The days when Celtic actually signed players you had heard of.
Rangers fans accusing another football club of cheating while systematically cheating Scottish football for close to a decade by financially doping their playing squad,and should have every trophy they won during that period took off them is another level of zero self awareness
Today was the last day we’ll see of this Legend in a Rangers shirt at Celtic Park.
Footballing rivalry aside, he’s been nothing short of sensational for @CelticFC, a class act.
Thanks for the memories, Tav. Disappointed to see you go! 🫶
