On this day in 2008, Scott McDonald’s incredible volley secured all three points for Celtic at Ibrox.

In the second half, a ball was flighted towards Samaras, who flicked the ball on to the Australian, and with a chest, swivel and powerful strike the ball soon nestled in the far top corner.

1-0 is how the scoreline stayed, with the Hoops moving seven points clear at the top of the SPL. Incredibly, Celtic contrived to lose their grip on the title by the end of the season and finished four points behind Rangers.

Hailing from an Irish background, I grew up on the English south coast with the good fortune to begin watching Celtic during the Martin O'Neill era. I have written four Celtic books since the age of 19: Our Stories & Our Songs: The Celtic Support, Take Me To Your Paradise: A History Of Celtic-Related Incidents & Events, Walfrid & The Bould Bhoys: Celtic's Founding Fathers, First Season & Early Stars, and The Holy Grounds of Glasgow Celtic: A Guide To Celtic Landmarks & Sites Of Interest. These were previously sold in Waterstones and official Celtic FC stores, and are now available on Amazon.
