Celtic fans delighted by hard man Brown
Celtic fans were delighted to see Scott Brown lead the side out on a pre-match walk around St Petersburg in his trademark polo shirt.
Whatever the weather at Lennoxtown or elsewhere the Celtic skipper makes no allowance for the elements as he trains the way he plays- giving it 100%.
The temperatures in northern Russia make the Scottish winter almost tropical but this afternoon Brown was showing the way with no concessions to the elements.

He must have some internal heating system.
I’m not saying he’s hard but I once heard he killed two stones with one bird!!!

Surprised he was wearing long trackies. Probably needed a pocket for his sun cream.

Brown is expected to be accompanied tonight by Olivier Ntcham and Eboue Kouassi as Celtic attempt to reach the last 16 of the Europa League.
Callum McGregor’s goal gives the hoops a slight advantage with the home side playing just their second competitive match in ten weeks.
Brendan Rodgers has no fresh injuries to deal with and is expected to start with the team that lined up against Zenit last week.
