Tom Grant’s Celtic Park Photographs, Destruction of the Jungle…
On the previous pagewe looked back to July 1994 at Celtic Park as the old stadium, with the Celtic End, Rangers End and of course the legendary Jungle, started the sad but also exciting process of being demolished.
The former Celtic Director Tom Grant worked alongside Celtic’s saviour Fergus McCann to build the new Paradise and along the way he took many hundreds of photographs of the end days for the old Celtic Park and the emergence of the fabulous stadium we all enjoy today.
As we continue to look through Tom Grant’s Celtic Park Photographs, it’s fascinating to see the Jungle come down like that, so many great memories in there for tens of thousands of Celtic fans over the years, but excitement too. The journey to being today’s dominant force in Scottish football was underway and here are the photographs to prove it….
I consider myself privileged that i lived during the era of the jungle, was no better place in the ground especially to be especially victories over them.
what a transformation all that needs done now is to do the main front stand in future looks a bit out of place now need the full stadium same height i know front part of it is listed but im sure it can be worked around make stadium bigger we got a massive following so be no problem filling the seats
