It has been an emotionally charged week for the players and focus around the club will be on weighty matters of history, of what we are all about. You can be sure, however, that Derek McInnes and his Aberdeen players have only one thing on their minds.
Aberdeen can win the Scottish Cup on Saturday. They need to play at their very best, and will need Celtic to perform as they did earlier in the competition against St Mirren, but 90 minutes passes quickly at Hampden, and you and I both know to take nothing for granted.
No one is going to drink in the celebrations of 1967 more than me, but we have won only two trebles since then. The current team deserve every inch of preparation possible. They are already one of the great Celtic teams, with an undefeated treble they can look the Lisbon Lions straight in the eye.
CQN presents Lisbon Lions and wives, Greenock Celtic Supporters’ Club, Friday 26 May 2017
The Lions were paraded on a coal lorry when they reached Celtic Park on 26 May 1967. We have a coal lorry, we have the Lions. This will be an incredible event. There’s also a live band.
Admission by ticket only, get yours here. They will be posted until tomorrow or collected at the door thereafter.

Oldtim (without phone) asked me to post that he is just finishing his beer on the seafront and will be back up to meet the guys waiting for him in 15 minutes or so, personally I would allow half an hour.
Looks like Donald findlay is softening up Horne (Murray’s Solicitor) at the moment.
I’m expecting a grenade to be thrown any minute now.

Just caught up with this: a great, great post. Thank you. It made me even prouder to support the Celtic and I didn’t think that was possible.

That was written by BROGAN, ROGAN TREVINO AND HOGAN over a number of weeks.
I just collated it and posted it up today as i thought it was appropriate.
