Callum McGregor has told CelticTV there might be a wind up between the players and Neil Lennon in the run up to the Clyde game with the bhoys making note of the upset the Celtic manager suffered as a player.
It was back in 2006 when Gordon Strachan was in charge. Roy Keane and Du Wei made their debut at Broadwood – Celtic suffered an embarrassing 2-1 defeat and Du Wei was sent packing shortly after.
Neil Lennon played the whole game alongside Roy Keane and they didn’t cover themselves in glory.
Speaking about the upcoming Clyde game at Broadwood in February. Callum McGregor vaguely recalls the game as a youngster at Celtic and admits the bhoys will be giving Lennon a bit of a hard time in the lead up.
“We’re looking forward to the game and from our point of view, we don’t want any upsets.
“Maybe in the next coming weeks we will wind him [Lennon] up a wee bit but certainly come the game everyone will be serious and ready to go and want to win the match.
“I was at Celtic back then and probably watching it. I just remember the result, it was obviously a big shock at the time but I was probably too young to actually understand the magnitude of it.
“Certainly this time around, we will be hoping for a positive result and into the next round.
“Football is always two teams and both teams have got a chance to win the game.”
Celtic haven’t lost a cup game in over three years and it would be a huge upset – perhaps bigger than 2006 if Clyde were to get a result against the treble treble champs.
