Evening Quote by Martin O'Neill

“There were 75,000 Celtic fans who descended on Seville. The stadium could not take them but they just wanted to make the journey. If anybody had ever doubted the scale of support for that football club they only had to be in Seville for that evening. It was unbelievable.” quote by Martin O'Neill — Download Open image
