The Great History of Celtic F.C.

6th November 1887. The Irish religious-catholic Brother Walfrid formed The Celts. In 1888 they played their first official match against Rangers FC, and in 1903 they made a switch for the iconic green-and-white hoops. As one of the first football clubs in Scotland and in the world, the Celts got off to a flying start, and expanded quick in the catholic part of Great Britain. This leads us to the Old Firm.
