Seven years ago she probably knew very little about Celtic with her football interest focussed on Derby County where her partner Kris Commons played.
In January 2011 a transfer to Celtic changed Lisa Hague’s life as she found a new home at a club very much to her liking.
On Sunday it was time for farewells of a sort but after the last half dozen years she’ll never be far away from the club.
As Kris’ career blossomed Lisa discovered that the supporter culture at Celtic was very much to her liking, she found a club that was much much more than the result on a Saturday or Sunday.
What an amazing day ????
So many kind messages to read through today, thank you.

Every cause that she championed was backed in incredible numbers as someone inside the club reached out to connect with the fans- the backbone and lifeline of the club.
Kris never managed a game this season but was warmly welcomed into the presentation ceremony and congratulated by Brendan Rodgers.
As Kris, Lisa and the kids took a final lap of honour around Celtic Park you knew that there are still plenty of unwritten chapters for them to enjoy in their adopted home.
