Celtic supporters have unveiled an Easter Rising inspired banner pre-match against Livingston.
With lyrics from the song “Freedom’s Sons,” the banner read: “Born into slavery, they were freedom’s sons.”
With today’s game taking place on Easter Sunday, a number of supporters have paid recognition to the Easter Rising in Ireland, which took place from April 24th to 29th, 1916.
With Celtic’s significant historic connection to Ireland, it’s clear to see why some felt the need to mark the occasion pre-match.
Celtic supporters have certainly been in fine voice in the first half, with the atmosphere heightened by the traveling support.
Livingston away historically marks an occasion for as many Celtic fans as possible to pack the Almondvale Stadium in West Lothian, and today has been no different so far.
In a stadium where Celtic have at times struggled over the years, they will need as much support as possible, and that is clearly what they are being given.
