@CollowWillie @Boola_vogue My memory as an 8 year old was that not all the goals were shown on Sportscene that night. I’ve still not seen all the goals on line

@CollowWillie @Boola_vogue This was my first ever Celtic game. The start of a love affair…54 years later still going ☘️

ON THIS DAY 1st APRIL 1972 Celtic 3-1 Partick Thistle Goals - Johnstone, Davidson 2 🍀🍀

@PaulJohnDykes @devinejames1967 Cheers . Appreciated

@ManusGOK @devinejames1967 I’ll speak to the author and come back to you Manus 🙏🏻

“Why don’t you support your local team?” I was gifted this rare Celtic book by author Brian McAuley last week in Musselburgh. The East is Green - well worth checking it out if you can find a copy.

@PaulJohnDykes @devinejames1967 Would love to get this book Paul John if. Any details?

@devinejames1967 I’ll email Brian and find out James 🍀

@Stephen4_2 Think the last time we were there was the 78/79 Anglo Scottish cup, the round before Burnley….

@ManusGOK Was in it just the once.

Bobby Lennox at the old Brockville in 1970. No more Brockville, Muirton Park, Shawfield, Boghead, Love Street, Broomfield, these days. Sad.

A bit late in posting but what a night in Stuttgart. This was the first ever away win on mainland Europe that I’ve attended. A wonderful atmosphere. “This is the day” for 20 minutes at the end. Magic.

@Stephen4_2 And Andy Rolland, Frank Kopel & Doug Smith

Dixie Deans at Tannadice in 1974. The sharp eyed will notice Vic Davidson.

@Chaz1037 @Stephen4_2 Yea that’s who I guessed at, but was wrong. He came on at half time in a Kilmarnock game

@ManusGOK @Stephen4_2 The boxer , they wheeled on at Half time at Celtic Park when he was due to meet Jimmy Watt in a world title fight at the Kelvingrove Hall ? And Watt took him easily

Who can name this guy and what was his connection to Celtic to get him in the media spotlight in August 1980 ?

@Stephen4_2 Got ye. In the 2nd leg we were 3 minutes away from going out when TB scored at Celtic Park, taking it to extra time where a young Charlie Nicholas got a couple

@ManusGOK The guy in the pic is Lloyd Irvine who scored the winner when Stirling Albion beat Celtic 1-0 in Lc 1st leg tie.

@Stephen4_2 Something to do with Stirling Albion?

@ManusGOK Clue - an opposition player.

@_Tweet_Celtic_ March email sent 👍

Murdo MacLeod could still be considered to Easter Road, but he will not be risked for tonight’s match, which kicks off at 7pm.

@Stephen4_2 So was i Stephen. Spooky

Danny McGrain testimonial prices from 1980. I was in the main stand that night near the dug out which was very unusual.

@Stephen4_2 Johnny Doyle’s last pre season team group

Celtic team group from 1981 in Tiger and Scorcher comic. that we MY Celtic team 1978-83. Great years as a teenager.

Great wee day for the unveiling of the Tommy Gemmell statue in sunny Craigneuk. What a player. First British player to score in 2 different European Cup Finals

@Stephen4_2 Drew 2-2,at home to St Mirren that night

Why I've come home by Frank McGarvey in March 1980. Hard to describe how exciting a signing this was. Scottish record fee of £250,000 when the British record stood at £1.4m for Andy Gray to Wolves,

@Stephen4_2 That was the Wednesday between the 2 Real Madrid games
