Today’s photo of the day is slightly unusual. It represents a tremendous picture of young Celtic fans working together to give each other a lift over the wall, as opposed a lift over the turnstyle.
It is unclear as to what period the photo dates back to. My hunch was that it was a game from the early 1980s because of the short haircuts on show, however the clothing seems to suggest that the image is from the 1970s, meanwhile the image of one fan wearing a rosette could indicate that it is actually a scene from the 1960s!
In addition to this speculation, it seems to be difficult to determine the location of the shot. Some feel that the wall looks like that behind the old Celtic End at Paradise. However, others feel that the image is from Hampden Park.
One thing’s for sure – it is a wonderful sight to see young working class Celtic supporters doing their utmost to get into the ground. After all, this was a bygone era when free entry to football was a right of passage for children.
