Remember Remember......

Hi this is my first thread so i hope it's a decent one :bbpd:

What Celtic memories do you have from youth? and i'm talking proper childhood here (up to 12). Either happy or Sad, I'll share a quite few of mine:
I started going to the games in 1997 and i was in a new stand (in a new stadium but not yet complete as i was the south-west and the jock stein stand wasnt there yet) but i remember before the season had started we got invited to look at our new seats from the pitch and that was a fun day going in the celtic park main entrance and then trying to find the way back out and we came across this big guy who my dad asked the way out, took a few minutes for me to realize it was Packie Bonner. I remember going to my first beam back game in 1999, i called it a bean bag game also remember singing the henrik larsson mark viduka song at that game, remember shouting at andy goram both with rangers and motherwell. remember nearly getting hit by a stephane mahe clearance, stopping the 10 was a great year with its ups and downs and i'm proud to say that was my first season, remember the street parties and the massive huddles, remember invading the pitch after it and grabbing chunks of it. Remember Joke Broon and also McCann getting booed, oh how we look back and see what he done for us. Remember "Who is Lubo Moravcik?" glad to say that stranger became one of our best friends
Remember Super Caley , Henke's leg break tosh mckinlay stookying henke, The old tops, blessed martin and his "i will do everything" and bhoy did he
Many more and if i remember i will post as i hope you do
what do you remember from your Celtic Bhoyhood?

 

Hail Hail Tom, 1997 98 was the year I first started going to games, great unforgettable year! Remember the FC Tirol Innsbruck and Liverpool games as well, winning the league cup at Ibrox.

1998 99 was came with much anticipation new manager Dr Joe, Champions League, defence of the title and it all came to naught. We also got to the Scottish Cup final which Rangers won garbage.

1999 2000 Another let down Barns fails miserably.

2000 2001 St Martin arrives! My best year ever! Treble Winners!!!

Will Lennys Irish eyes be smiling before long!!

 

My earliest memory was watching celtic beat rangers 2-0 at ibrox in 1994 when I was 7 & john collins scored that peach of a free kick n mcstay scoring n seeing ma granny so happy that celtic beat rangers n loved them ever since.
I started going in 1996 my first game was against hibs n we won 5-0 ill always remember how sunny it was that day. My first old firm that year aswell when laudrup scored early n gazza n van hooijdonk missing penaltys n never forget the fox on the pitch lol.

My first away game was in 1997 when we beat motherwell 3-2 when donnelly got the winner after being 2-1 down what a game. Most of my childhood evolved around celtic in school or at home they wer always in my head thinking about the next game or game i was just at it was great days when I was a kid n mostly coz of celtic.

 

Hail hail, remember that mad bastardo annoni and his mental boots

 

My first ever game was a aberdeen game I was young think we won 3 1 and from that day I was hooked also rember the treble I was about 11 12 I think and after wards had a giant treble party in my house think it went on for a week lol

 

i remember my 11th birthday getting my season ticket in a card for the next season never looked back since , i also remember my 1st auld firm game in the times t was rough our supporters bus took a wrong turning and had to go up london road as the huns were marching up there getting bottles trown at the bus grown mebn liften up there socks showing off knifes and such, as a kid disturbed me for a while .

Another time i remember was the 1st game once parkhead had been rebuilt, 1st game was a night match against Aberdeen i think we hammered them 7-0 we had floodlight failure and when they came back on a fox ran across the pitch was a totaly strange night

 

first match i went 2 see was a friendly against boheamians in dublin cant remember what year it was ,charlie nicolas scored a brace, remember thinking paul elliot was a giant,paul mcstay was class when the final wistle blew the whole team sprinted like * for the changing rooms cause they were going to be mobbed by all the celtic fans

 

1 was 5 i think when i first watched us win the league in '81 am sure beat st mirren 3-0 n ma da wouldnt let me run on the pitch!5 year later at love street when we did the impossible i was like "* you old man" and ran on to celebrate with the troops,great memories of bein at cup finals in 85(nearly got badly crushed) and 88 doin the double same season(centenary) was magical,great days,the childhood feeling never really leaves you

 

First game was against clydebank in the scottish cup
first ever game played in britain on a sunday i believe
so many highs celtic v rangers 4-2 6-2 5-1 and
4-2 at ibrox winning cups and leagues following celtic home and abroad
european nights real madrid ac milan juventus to the lows finishing fifth in leagues watching nine in a row at ibrox
losing to clyde raith rovers inverness
real roller coaster but always proud to be a season ticket holder
now go to games with my son

 

Cant remember my 1st game as i was a kid back then but i think it was against the huns and we won or lost 1 nil. My childhood memories are all cracking one's . Back in the 80s when everyone was skint in belfast my da always made sure he brought me to glasgow. He's dressed up as a chef to get us on the boat, dressed up as a stewart to get us into the game's and hitched hicked from stranrar to glasgow. I remember being 8 years of age and singing happy birthday to celtic in our centenary year. I was standing in the jungle on teh day we called it the jungles last stand because it was about to get knocked down for the new stadium. I remember cup finals, wining leagues. I was there with my da and my wee sis when we stoped 10iar and we got in without any tickets. I also remember being at ibrox when we got beat 5-0 by them * and all my da's scots friends told him that not to bring me back again because i was a scud ,lol. Ive also got this memeroy of us * the huns with me standing behind the net at parkehad but i forget what the score was. But most of all i remember when celtic park had a cracking atmosphere with us singing all the republican songs there is and not a word said about it by our own fans, would love to see them days again

 

inverness with barnes, i was there, it sucked

 

Was at Manchester Utd away when we got beat 3-2 and Naka scored a free kick. Turned out to be a good result though as it meant we qualified later on

 

The 5th of november.

 

I was 10 when they won the league by a goal.
Remember watching the game with my family, not really bothered about football but being * devestated after the game.

 

1st game was at home to fc zurich in the uefa cup 98/99, drew 1-1 darren jackson scored and tom boyd got sent off.

1st old firm was at hampden in 00/01 we won 3-1 in the cis semi.

1st away game was benfica when we lost 3-0

 

Earliest Celtic memory I have was the shame game in 1999 when the scum won the league... I wasn't really watching the game, but my Dad was, I just remember seeing Dallas' face covered in blood. First started watching games properly in Seville season, but I have vague memories prior to that, like the 6-2 game, beating Livingston 5-1 to win the league, a 4-0 win against Dundee UTD around Christmas 2001 and that last minute Scottish cup final defeat to the huns.

 

Always remember henk's goal in the old firm match, meg and chip and watching the ball boys jump around behind the goal. Fantastic.

 

Mine was my first season book the year we played at hampden and the memory i have was when Big Pierre Scored from edhe of box against hearts .

 

• Annoni's boots.
• Mahe's hair.
• Stuart Kerr duffing up to let Falkirk put us out of the cup in the replay.
• Brattbakk stopping the huns.
• Last game of the season - Celtic on one screen, Rangers on the other. Nail biting stuff.
• Dallas shouting "Heeeeids!!" then wishing he hadn't after he caught it sweet on the forehead.
• Henrik Larsson breaking his leg, which also resulted in me breaking down in tears

 

did boyd get sent off for handballing the ball to stop it going in?
and they got a penalty...cant remember the outcome though
