Sure

Great side.I was too young to watch that final.I remember them losing the 1970 final.Jimmy Johnstone was one of my childhood heros!! They even managed to beat the MIGHTY Leeds in the semi!!
Yep, and that semi-final over two legs, both live on free to view TV (ITV or BBC - can't remember which), still remain in my memory as two of the finest matches I've ever seen. Good as Leeds were in those days, watching the way Celtic beat them to nearly every second ball was just awesome - and still, as in '67, just a bunch of lads more or less from Glasgow!
It still remains one of the biggest surprises in my football following life that somehow Feyenord managed to beat them in the final!

yes i remember all 3 games

The home leg was played at Hampden not Parkhead and was in the Guinness book of records for a number of years as a record crowd between 2 British club sides.Probably still is. (130,000?)

Plus the few hundreds that got in anyway, I dare say! Would love to have been there!

I s that all you've got? A comment about spacing? Mikel Arteta Henrik Larsson, Torre Andre Flo, David Laudrup, Dion Dublin, Chris Sutton, Didier Agathe, Frank Sauzee, Ulysses De La Cruz , Joe Baker, have all graced the Scottish game with their pressence.None of them farmhands.Here's something you can think about. If Celtic or Sevco were playing in the EPL, they would finish above Brighton.

50 - or even 20 - years ago they would (if they could have avoided relegation). Now - above Brighton? 50-50 at the very best. Two of our youngsters are on loan to teams above you in the league! ......................... and you do know where Rangers got two of their title winning CBs from, including their vice captain, don't you? Well, probably not, all things considered!

....... and you think you can make reparations for previous ineptitude by double spacing instead of just putting in the required single spaces? Get back tae youse electric soup an' ha'd yer wheesht, ye ba'm pot. Sheezt ................ finnell ......

Crystal Palace have agreed a fee of around £15m with #Celtic for Odsonne Edouard. Medical in the morning and ends Palace’s search for another striker #cpfc

Poor bloke

Feel for him

Though more on the palace eye watering wage bill :lol:

There’s so little to admire in that post. Mainly because it is utter shite.

Alfredmizen used to do that. I always thought it was symptomatic of something. What, I'll probably never know. With any luck.
