Celtic release special Oasis-themed magazine ahead of Murrayfield gigs

Celtic have released a special Oasis-themed magazine amid the iconic band's reunion this summer. 

The Gallagher brothers, Liam and Noel, have got back together for a tour spanning several continents over the coming weeks and months. 

They will play at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh in August.

Ahead of their series of gigs, Celtic have released a special edition of the 'Celtic View', with the cover a nod to Oasis' 'Definitely Maybe' album cover, which was released in 1994. 

Celtic's connection to the band that hails from Manchester goes back several years. 

Indeed, Noel visited Parkhead for a Celtic vs Rangers match in 2000 that turned out to be rather iconic, with the hosts running out emphatic 6-2 victors. 

"The greatest thing I've ever seen was before the 6-2 match," he said [football.sportingmemories.net].

"I was having a drink and this guy came up and said, 'You better go and sit in your seat, son, something special is about to happen'. As I walked into the stadium, 'Roll With It' came out of the PA. They stopped it halfway, and the fans stood up and began to sing it.

"I'm glad I got the chance to see Henrik Larsson score against Rangers when he looked especially cool with the dreadlocks. He scored with a magnificent chip over the keeper's head. Everyone thought the ball was over, even the ball boys, but he was already celebrating.

"My other favourite Celtic player was Kenny Dalglish. He was just a phenomenal footballer. He had the haircut, the big sideboards, the big collared shirts and the number on the shorts. I also liked Charlie Nicholas. Anyone that comes with the prefix Champagne is all right by me."
