Strangely enough, by Celtic and not the Club yet, however....... http://www.celticfc.net/newsroom/news.aspx?id='2006-02-15_1037JS'
It used to be about a long term player getting a big pay day before he retired..Now since most pros are millionares it's basically a exhibtion match with the money going to charity.
The Celtic supporters over at Xtrashit think that we are not even worthy enough to play them. They think it's ludicrous that we want to play someone big in Europe. I could post the link but it really irritates me. I kinda am a Celtic fan for me being Irish but holy geebus they are out of control.
What a load of shite about them being bigger than us. What sort of "big" team has John fuckin' Hartson as first choice striker. Plus they are xtrashit wankers.
A Rangers fan over at XT came up with a possibility as to why Shearer chose Celtic. It has something to do with these lyrics sung by the fans: You are my Larsson, My Henrik Larsson, You make me happy when skies are grey! We could have Shearer but he's a ****** so please don't take my Larsson away!
Check It! Alan Shearer compilation video! http://www.********.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48003 I haven't finished downloading yet, but dude says it covers every year of his Newcastle career. Footage from Soton and Blackburn years too.
