The Celtic support will be celebrating the life of Billy McNeil today at Celtic Park as they welcome Kilmarnock for the second last home game of the season.
The club lost one of its greatest sons this week with the passing of the iconic Celtic captain after a long battle with dementia.
Celtic players will be wearing specially made black armbands with number 5 on it this afternoon and they laid a wreath at the great man’s statue before heading in to warm up for the game.
Celtic fans will get to make some noise for Billy with a 67 second applause before kick off this afternoon and as the players emerge from the tunnel they will be greeted by this banger from the GB.

Celtic are looking to virtually wrap up the title this afternoon. A win would put them 12 points ahead with their rivals only having 12 points left to play for in the final games.
A big win today,would be a fitting tribute to the big man,on this sad day..
