Celtic Legends, Football Stars Attend John Clark Funeral Glasgow

The funeral of Celtic legend John Clark was held at St Mary’s Church in Calton, Glasgow, with a large gathering of current players, former stars, and football officials paying their respects. Clark, a key member of the Lisbon Lions and a pivotal figure in Celtic's history, played over 300 matches and secured multiple Scottish league titles, including the historic 1967 European Cup victory. Attendees included current Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers, players such as Callum McGregor and Kieran Tierney, former Celtic captains like Neil Lennon and Scott Brown, and notable football figures Roy Keane and Ian Wright, who had brief spells at Celtic. Rangers were represented by CEO Patrick Stewart and former player John Brown, reflecting the respect across rival clubs. The funeral chapel displayed Portuguese flags, honoring both Clark's greatest triumph in Lisbon and recent tragic events involving Liverpool footballers. Following the service, the funeral procession passed Celtic Park, allowing fans to pay tribute to the club legend who dedicated seven decades to Celtic as player, coach, and kitman.
