The Old Firm

With the old firm game coming up this Sunday, this blog will take a look back at previous meetings between Glasgow's Giants.


With the game fast approaching it's all anyone can talk about! It's the game of the season and it's the one everyone waits for to come as it is the last meeting between the two Glasgow clubs.

Despite all the violence around the game and the bad press the old firm games are actually something to look forward too. It is known to have an atmosphere like no other game in the world.

Not only does both clubs have huge fan bases worldwide other footballers are also fans. Wayne Rooney has been photographed at  a Celtic game before and also stated on twitter during an old firm game " Come on Celtic get a win today and win the league. Come on the Hoops".

Rio Ferdinand tweeted " Atmosphere sounds unbelievable at the old firm game. 1-0 to Celtic !"

Not only is the atmosphere amazing in the stadium, inside is just as good! Last time when Celtic bet rangers 1-0 with Joe Ledley's wonder goal, all the players went around all the restaurants and went back to the players lounge to have a party.

Because it's the last old firm game of the season, my work has done a special offer where you can come to Parkhead and eat before, got to the game and come back afterwards, just like the cup final. Though lets hope the game doesn't end the same way!

We could of been celebrating not only a possible win over Rangers but the fact they have won the SPL, however because Celtic had a draw with Aberdeen, the presentation of the cup will be held off another week.

But could you imagine? Winning the cup at Ibrox? The feeling for all Celtic fans, the players and Neil Lennon would be unbelievable. It would of definitely made up for Sundays disappointment.

However, here's hoping once again they show us why they're top of the league and come back home to Parkhead with a win.
