SAD news this morning as Celtic have confirmed that Harry Hood has passed away.
“Everyone at Celtic is saddened at the death of Harry Hood, who has passed away at the age of 74. A Celtic great, Harry made 310 appearances for the Hoops between 1969 and ’76, scoring a very impressive 123 goals,” the official Celtic site has posted.
The thoughts and prayers of everyone at the club are with Harry’s family and friends at this extremely sad time.

Harry Hood “deserves his place in Celtic folklore. He wasn’t a Lisbon Lion or a Quality Street Kid, but he fitted in perfectly at Celtic. He had the X-Factor that helped the team win games and in many ways he was the classic Celtic player. His record of 123 goals and 12 major honours stands comparison with the greats.
The thoughts and prayers of everyone at Celtic are with Harry’s family and friends at this extremely sad time.”
