Remembering a Legend

On a poignant day at Celtic Park this week, the Celtic family came together in a touching tribute to the late John 'Dixie' Deans, crossing The Celtic Way one last time. Deans, who recently passed away at 79, was not just any player; he was a talismanic figure whose impact is forever etched in the annals of this storied club.

As the former striker's cortege travelled down the iconic route, it was a moment of collective remembrance and reflection. Celtic has lost one of its greatest servants, a man whose prowess between the posts made him a hero for many a generation.

Deans's football journey is one of legend, notching up an impressive tally of goals for both Motherwell and Celtic during the 1960s and 1970s. Earning six major honours with the Bhoys, Deans's legacy is a testament to the glory days, a chapter in Celtic's rich tapestry that speaks of triumph and undying dedication. Though he only represented Scotland twice, every appearance was a demonstration of his top-notch skill and sportsmanship.

A Fitting Tribute

As a fitting homage to a club legend, Celtic’s next match sees them travel to Fir Park to face Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership. It's sure to be a game charged with emotion as the team honours Deans’s memory on the pitch, aiming to channel some of his unstoppable spirit.

Closing Words And A Joke!

As we look forward to the match against Motherwell, remember, every goal we score is dedicated to legends like Dixie. On that note, why did the Rangers fan sit in the last row at Ibrox? Because they wanted to get as far from the trophy cabinet as possible!
