Former Celtic Star Sparks Brilliant Huddle Scenes at Oasis Gig

Former Celtic forward Simon Donnelly was right in the thick of it at Murrayfield this week, joining in a raucous version of the huddle during an Oasis concert that had the crowd bouncing.

The ex-Hoops man, now 50, shared footage of the moment on social media as he and a group of pals embraced the Celtic-inspired celebration while the Gallagher brothers’ iconic tunes blasted around the stadium.

It was clear Donnelly was enjoying every minute of it, belting out the hits and soaking up the atmosphere in front of a packed Scottish crowd.

Donnelly played a key role in the Celtic sides of the 1990s, making over 100 appearances between 1993 and 1999.

He formed a lively attacking partnership with Jorge Cadete and Paolo Di Canio during one of the more turbulent periods in the club’s modern history, before going on to feature for the likes of Sheffield Wednesday, St Johnstone and Partick Thistle.

The Oasis gigs at Murrayfield, held on the 8th, 9th, and 12th of August, drew huge numbers, with Donnelly attending the final night.

His appearance sparked plenty of reaction among Celtic supporters online, many of who were delighted to see one of their own still embracing the spirit of the club, even away from the pitch.

While Oasis brought the noise, it was Donnelly and his impromptu huddle that delivered a distinctly Glasgow touch to the evening, a reminder that wherever the fans go, the Celtic spirit isn’t far behind.
