    I can only go by what I have seen and I had some of the best times of my life watching Henrik. Whether it was his 50th goal at Ibrox, all his goals v rangers or his numerous goals in Europe, it would have to be him.

    Ye know, I really didn't think this poll through. I should have made it 'Who's your favourite ever Celt apart from Henrik Larsson?'

    I forgot that Henrik wins every poll going on here. :31::56:

    Johan mjallby. Reason..... IMO I dont think defenders get enouh credit and big Johan was one of the best CB's I've seen at Celtic.

    Can't pick one at all.

    I started at the top of the list and could select every one of them for various reasons.

    larsson just for what he did for the club and what confidence and class he brought, how he scored some of the most important goals in the history of the club and how he got 2 headers in the uefa final :50:

    Larsson shouldn't be in polls unless you want one sided results.

    I've never admired a footballer so much than i did Henrik Larsson. Being 16 i can only remember the likes of Tommy Burns and Jinky off DVD's and videos so for me its easy because he was at his best when i was growing up. Lenny a very close 2nd along with Brother Walfrid, for if it wasn't for him i wouldn't have Glasgow Celtic in my life...scary thought :shamrock:

    Lubo because he's the best footballer I've had the pleasure to see play for a Scottish Football team. Unbelievable ability.

    Henke because of the affection I have for him.

    BUT every one of those Celts on the list would be worthy.

    The obvious answer is Henrik, however I went for Other and I'm gonna say Big Pierre as he was the first ever footballer I idolised.

    Could have went for the obvious in henke, But went for the "mermaid" james mcgrory.
    The amount of goals he scored was phenomenal and was also Celtic manager for 20 years. Winning titles and Scottish cups.

    He was apparently informed years later that he was the lowest paid player at Celtic because he refused a record transfer fee to move to arsenal. To which he replied well it was worth it to pull on the hoops.

    Absolute legend in my eyes.

    hail hail:shamrock:
