Crerand’s advice to Amad ahead of Old Firm derby
Our 1968 European Cup-winning midfielder Paddy Crerand played for Celtic for five years prior to coming to Old Trafford, and he’s got a bit of advice for Amad going into his first Old Firm derby.
“It’s a great opportunity for him, this,” Crerand says.
“The pressure of a Celtic v Rangers match is incredible. There is nothing like it anywhere.
“You don’t know what it means unless you’re living in Glasgow. It’s bigger than Man City v Man United and maybe even Liverpool and Manchester United.
“The hatred between the fans isn’t nice. It’s got a nastiness to it sometimes, but as a player, it’s great to play in those games. The atmosphere in the stadium is just fantastic.
