Brendan Rodgers dropped in on one of Celtic’s most recognisable fans at home in Belfast yesterday.
The elderly fan has a customised green and white wheelchair and faithfully makes the journey over to Glasgow for every home match as well as taking in a number of away games and European matches.

Rodgers looked very relaxed and tanned from his summer break as he prepares Celtic for the challenges of the new season.
On June 19 he will find out who the hoops will play in the first two Champions League qualifiers with those matches starting on July 10 or 11.
Over eight consecutive midweeks, all going well, Celtic will be in action chasing the £40m plus pot available for reaching the group phase of the Champions League.
Rodgers has still to move into the transfer market although Erik Sviatchenko and Nadir Ciftci have left the club as the Irishman prepares for his third season in charge.
