THE CELTIC FAMILY have united to pay tribute to one of the club’s greatest ever sons on the anniversary of the club’s finest hour in Lisbon. Billy McNeill held the European Cup aloft back in 1967 and the affection towards the Lisbon Lions has never wavered.
Designer Barry McGonigle has teamed up with Social Recluse to produce a t-shirt honouring Cesar. The t-shirt includes the tagline ‘where you went others followed’ a nod to Cesar becoming the first non-Latin player to lift the European cup.
#Cesar T shirts go on sale tonight, with the blessing of the Lisbon Lions.
Money raised will be split between @BADCharity1 and @MNDScotland
Available from 9pm Tonight

With the t-shirt having the blessing of the charities and the families, Celtic players past and present combined to pay tribute to Cesar and the Lions. Frank McAvennie, Simon Donnelly, Tom Boyd, John Hartson and Scott Brown were just a few of those that showcased the t-shirt before it went on sale last night.
