JOHNNY Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 It is estimated that there will be approximately 15,000 Celtic fans in Barcelona this evening, despite receiving less than 5,000 from the Catalan club. It is expected that many will make the journey in the hope of picking up tickets on the black market, or be content watching the match on a large screen set up in the city. Not quite the estimated 70,000 who descended on Seville last may, but a very impressive turn out once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOHNNY Posted March 26, 2004 Author Share Posted March 26, 2004 This picture perfectly sums up the defensive performance on display by the brave Celts. Villarreal, currently 9th in La Liga, come from a small town an hour from Valencia and play in a stadium with a capacity of only 19,000. I hope Celtic don't treat them lightly, as this is a game they will enter as favourites which brings added pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evergreen Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Great game and great result!!! I was very impressed again since I expected Celtic to fold from the pressure Barca would apply. Marshall has a great career ahead of him and I think he's destined for big things. Well done Celts!!! I'm cheering for you!!! Take it all the way this time! :tup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
