Celtic’s Double Treble winners were given an open top bus to take the Scottish Cup back to Celtic Park.

Not long after the trophy had been presented at Hampden supporters started to gather along the Clyde Walkway with the parade starting from Dalmarnock Station.

Thousands of fans who had watched the match at Hampden were joined by revellers who had watched at home or in the pub turned up to salute Brendan Rodgers’ squad.

Celtic had planned a parade on Sunday before Scott Brown’s testimonial match but due to other pressures that was cancelled with tonight’s parade the compromise.

At other clubs the bus parade is part and parcel of a cup success but in Glasgow things have always been dealt with differently.

In recent seasons fans have gathered at Celtic Park to cheer the team back but today’s half mile route marks a breakthrough as the Double Treble winners confirmed that Glasgow is Green and White.
