The decision has been branded 'inflammatory' and one star who featured in that notorious match is not impressed.
Atletico Madrid’s decision to celebrate the notorious shame game by wearing a special strip at Celtic Park on Wednesday has been branded incendiary.
Celtic legend Tommy Callaghan has questioned the wisdom of Atletico wearing a replica strip and labelled it “bad taste”. He said: “Whether Atletico have forgotten all about 1974 and the things that happened, I don’t know. “It’s the club which will be offended and the people still at Celtic and the supporters who were there back then, there’s not a lot of us left but we remember well what happened.”
