Celtic on this Day – Five wins in Paradise but some real contrasting emotions for the Celtic support with the then Celtic director Michael Kelly hitting out at the fans…
6 November 2010, Celtic 9-0 Aberdeen
The Hoops biggest ever win in their Scottish Premier League history. The league rebranded in 2013, just before anyone smart comments are made about Ange Postecoglou’s side thumping Dundee United 9-0 at Tannadice two years ago. Celtic’s victory eclipsed their 8-1 win at Dunfermline in 2006. It was also the Celts biggest margin of victory over Aberdeen in the club’s history. The previous record stood at 8-0 against the Dons. Anthony Stokes and Gary Hooper both netted hat-tricks. Joe Ledley, a Josh Magennis own-goal and Paddy McCourt’s late penalty also rounded up the scoreline. In addition, both Paul Hartley who denied a certain goal for Celtic at 0-0 and Thomas Rogne who denied a clear goal scoring opportunity were sent off by referee Alan Muir in the first half.
