Amid another depressing week of ‘news’ for Celtic fans there was one set of images that appeared on Friday that no-one could argue with or fall out over.
Four images of Bertie Auld as lively as ever appeared on Twitter as his supporters’ club in Maryhill share the images of the Lisbon Lion dropping in on Celtic Park after more than a year away.

It is almost 15 months since over 50,000 fans watched Celtic hammer St Mirren 5-0 with Leigh Griffiths bagging a hat-trick.
Hopefully next month fans can be back inside Celtic Park for the friendlies against Preston North End and West Ham but they are certain to be watching a much-changed team.
Yesterday Kris Ajer announced his desire to move on after five years at Celtic, these days that seems to be an above average stay at the same club.
It is almost 50 years since Auld left Celtic as a player but the bond with the Lion seems stronger than ever.
