The Green Brigade gave Bertie Auld an incredible salute as they fired up the pyro for a 67th minute celebration of the Lisbon Lion.
Since his death was announced last Saturday hundreds of stories, videos and pictures have been shared with the majority of them relating to his post playing exploits.
Hampden Park was a special ground for Bertie, legends are made in that stadium with Auld and his team-mates rising to the occasion to deliver some of Celtic’s greatest triumphs.

From the 66th minutes the mobile phones were raised at Hampden, from the front of the Celtic End a huge image of Auld was unfurled with pyro lit around it, a move that is likely to be condemned by the authorities.
Fittingly the only goal of the game arrived a few minutes later, through hard graft Jota created it with substitute James Forrest delivering the decisive moment as he fired the ball into the net. It was the sort of win that Bertie would have revelled in.
