Lisbon Lions
In 1967 Celtic became the first British team to lift the European Cup, the heroics of the Celtic players that night earned them the nickname ‘Lisbon Lions’. Remarkably all members of the team were born within 30 miles of Glasgow.
This remains Celtics best ever performance in the European cup, as such the 1967 team has a gained near mythical status among the clubs fans. Our site www.RetroFootieShirts.co.uk features two great replica retro shirts just like the ones worn that night by Wallace, McBride, Lennox and Chalmers.
We have recently started a google PPC campaign based on Celtics famous 1967 European cup success. If the campaign is successful we will roll out specific PPC ads for other teams big game shirts. Arsenal’s 1989 shirt worn at Anfield when winning the football league and Manchester United’s 1968 blue shirt worn at Wembley for the 1968 European Cup win.
