Celtic remember best ever players with enormous banner covering entire stand

Plenty to choose from

Impressive.

Even if you are not a Celtic fan, it’s hard not to feel something special towards one of the most famous football grounds on the planet.

Celtic Park, or Parkhead as some like to call it, is one of the most iconic stadiums in the world, but now Celtic have decided to make the outside of the famous venue equally as iconic.

The club have unveiled an artwork called “The Celtic Story”, which covers the entire length of the Jock Stein stand, and is an impressive 21 metres tall and 202 metres long.

The artwork features 58 of the club’s most well known figures, such as Billy McNeill, Henrik Larsson and Scott Brown, as well as the words: “Paradise – Where Legends Are Made”.

Fans will get a chance to see the work properly tomorrow night, when the Scottish champions face FC Stjarnan.
