Celtic staff and players wore black armbands during their victory over Motherwell this weekend.
The Hoops opted to wear the tribute in honour of a former player who passed away earlier in the week.
Tommy Callaghan died, aged 78, on Friday, October 25.
The club paid tribute to the former left-sided midfielder on their social media channels and website before commemorating him during their 3-0 win at Fir Park.

All players as well as staff and the management team wore the armbands as a way to remember Callaghan and all he did for and brought to Celtic Football Club over the eight years he played there.
Callaghan also represented Dunfermline Athletic, Clydebank and Galway Rovers while also enjoying a short stint in the States with San Antonio Thunder.
At Celtic Park he won six league titles, five Scottish Cups and three League Cups.
He was the only man to be signed twice by the great Jock Stein and was part of the Hoops’ iconic nine-in-a-row winning team in the 1974 campaign.

Before the Motherwell clash, manager Brendan Rodgers paid his own tribute to Mr Callaghan and dubbed him a “legend of the game” in what was an emotional moment for the Northern Irishman.
“So, I think all our thoughts and condolences are with Tommy,” Rodgers explained.
“I think any player that’s been signed twice by Jock Stein tells you how good a player he was.
“And it’s always sad. I bumped into Tommy a few weeks only back and yeah, sad day, but a real legend of the club. And all our thoughts are with his family.”

Celtic won the game 3-0 thanks to goals from Luke McCowan, Alistair Johnston and Adam Idah to go six points ahead of Rangers at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
Aberdeen remain close on the tails of the champions after they, too, won again in a 1-0 victory over Dundee United.
Both clubs are on 25 points with Celts holding a superior goal difference.
It is not the first time this year Celtic have worn black armbands for the club legends.
Back in January during a clash with Rangers, they paid tribute to Frank McGarvey by wearing the bands, as pictured by Kyogo, above.
