Luke McCowan’s dream of lifting a league title with Celtic took on even greater significance after a heartfelt social media post from his partner captured the full-circle journey of the couple.
The Celtic midfielder was part of the side that clinched the Scottish Premiership title in style at Tannadice on Saturday with a commanding 5-0 victory over Dundee United. But for McCowan and his partner Erin, the moment had an added layer of personal meaning.
The midfielder, who has been a terrific squad player for Celtic this season, started on the bench fo the Hoops in the league winner, but did come on in the second half.
In a series of Instagram stories, Erin reflected on the couple’s emotional connection to the club and the ground where Celtic sealed their latest triumph. “There are truly no words to describe this feeling!” she wrote. “The last time Celtic won [the league] at Tannadice we were both in the stands.”
Erin shared a photo of the two of them among the away support back in 2022, watching on as fans. Fast forward two years, and she reposted an image of Luke celebrating on the pitch as a Celtic player, holding the league trophy as a key part of the squad.
It’s a remarkable story of dedication and dreams fulfilled, and a reminder of the personal journeys that intertwine with footballing success.
Champions and they showed why furst 15minutes nervy but after first goal they turned on the style I wouldn’t say jota going of hopefully just a twist maeda is more direct and that was shown in the second and third goals the running off the ball by all Celtic players johnstone run for khun first illustrates unselfish running as good as an assists you see players tire 10 minutes before before halftime with non stop movement off and on the ball one-touch passing Rodgers will be delight with the whole aspect of the game and praise to Tannadice groundsman for the pitch that allows teams to play passing game put other clubs to shame that maybe I’m been to tough cause or weather doesn’t help
Brilliant example of dreams coming true!
In this time of “squad” football over just “team” game, Luke is a tremendous addition to our squad! Players should last longer like this. The ridiculous amount of games asked of top players these days is causing burnout and top quality squad players like Luke are critical to top clubs like Celtic.
To see him come on yesterday and be on the park when the final whistle blew was brilliant! His first, but very probably not last title with Scotland’s most decorated club of all time!

Soon as first goal went in it was all over.Teams in Scotland really need to score first to have any chance against this team.We score first, they have to rip up game plan,start again,holes start appearing all over the place,and we inevitably score again,and again.
