Celtic fans were underwhelmed by a sneak preview of the new lighting system inside Celtic Park.

Including the new hybrid pitch around £5m has been spent in and around the stadium during the close season as the club consolidates the finest stadium in the country.

An early evening video clip of the lights however doesn’t make much impact although no doubt they will be impressive on winter nights.

Fans will get their first look at the new pitch on Saturday when Standard Liege visit on friendly action as the hoops sharpen up for the Champions League qualifiers.

After winning 3-0 away to Alashkert the second leg against the Armenian champions should be a formality before a much tougher test.

Rosenborg or Valur will visit Celtic on July 24 or 24 with the Icelandic side taking a 1-0 first leg lead into the return match in Norway on Wednesday.
