The early 60s was a tough time at Celtic Park. There really was a sense of hopelessness until Big Jock arrived at the club. Today’s photo of the day captures that despair through the experience of one fan, who is being carried by his arms and legs.

The image was taken at Ibrox during the Scottish Cup Semi Final between Celtic and St Mirren in 1962. Play was held for 16 minutes when Celtic fans invaded the pitch with St Mirren 3-0 up. This supporter was arrested for his misbehaviour.

As the saying goes… night is darkest just before the dawn.
