If Oasis do come to Celtic Park, it will not be entirely unique.

In the past, the Gallagher brothers have been at Parkhead to hear their tunes rocking the ground, not least ‘Roll with it’ after the 6-2 win in 2000.

That will again happen in 2027.

Next year, Oasis will play a series of concerts at Celtic Park.

The Celts’ home has long been used for more than men's football.

Its history includes other sports, religious events and major music shows.
