The 4-2 game: in pictures

junglejamesie on the Huddleboard posted these great pictures from the 4-2 Championship clincher back in 1979.  We’ve thrown in a few more for good measure.  “We’ve won the league again, fly the flag, fly the flag”

 

Celtic go one goal down thanks to Greetin’ Face himself

 

The Bear (hidden behind hun defender on the right) snatches Celtic’s equaliser . . .

 

then celebrates in front of the Celtic End:

 

 

George McCluskey puts Celtic ahead

 

 

George then sets up Celtic’s third – gloriously despatched by Colin Jackson (not the Welsh sprinter) into his own net

 

with the Girvan Shitehouse unable to stop it crossing the line!

 

Murdo makes it 4 – and the League is won!

 

 

Andy Lynch knows it’s all over

 

 

Then fails to get off the pitch in time before the Tims invade!

 

 

Let the celebrations commence!  (including an injured Tommy Burns with fetching green and white tie on!)

 

 

Colin Jackson wasn’t celebrating, despite his great goal:
