Celtic FC manager, Neil Lennon, appealed to fans living in Edinburgh to support Ireland’s year-long celebration, The Gathering.
The eagerly awaited ‘Dublin Decider’ match against Liverpool on 10 August 2013 is supported by The Gathering tourism initiative and the Scottish champions are urging fans to use this time to enjoy Ireland while they visit.
Manager Neil Lennon said:- “We have made a number of recent visits to Ireland to see our supporters and of course we are really looking forward to playing Liverpool in Dublin in August, a match where thousands of Celtic fans have snapped up the tickets in record time”.
“Celtic Football Club and its supporters have such strong links with Ireland and clearly we’d encourage all Scots to visit and see this amazing island for themselves”.
From clan reunions and grass-roots sport to traditional music and festivals, The Gathering is bringing people to the island to enjoy hundreds of events across the year. Fly there in just under an hour from Scotland and enjoy a number of fantastic deals available across the whole country.
