Celtic have a raft of famous faces who are fans of the football club.
Rod Stewart, Snoop Dog, Martin Compston and Hollywood actor Tony Curran are some of the most famous that are not shy in professing their love of the club on social media and in the news.

And now, former World Snooker champion John Higgins has cited Celtic as the motivation behind his desire to win another title and hopes that if he is succesful, he will get to parade the championship trophy at Celtic and meet Ange Postecoglou.
Speaking to STV News, Higgins said, “Ange Postecoglou has been amazing for the club he has come in and everybody just loves him, so for as long as he stays at Celtic I think we can look forward to more games like the weekend for, hopefully, years to come.
“That’s maybe why I am feeling so good just now.
“It would be a dream to be able to go and parade another world championship at Celtic Park and meet big Ange, that would be an amazing feeling.”
Higgins has won the title four times in has career. It was in 1998 that he got the chance to parade the trophy at Celtic Park before we faced St Johnstone on the day we stopped Rangers winning ten in a row.
Clearly, the desire to do so again is strong in the 47-year-old as he kicks off his bid to win the title this Saturday in Sheffield.
