    Does this not really really really annoy you when you hear people call Celtic Park parkhead?

    It's not called parkhead!!!!!!

    Few of my cousins from my mums side (englishish) down south are chelski fans and they CONSTANTLY call it Parkhead, as do some commentators, tv presenters etc. Seriously does my * in.

    Opinions?

    ? Is there a big difference? People call it both, people also call it paradise. Doesn't really matter.

    I do, it does my * in. Let's start calling Stamford Bridge Fulham then since it's in the Fulham area?

    Or lets start calling the Emirates stadium Ashton grove?

    It should not be getting called Parkhead - it's real name is Celtic Park.

    it was called parkhead for a long time, and still is. Newcastle fans still call their stadium st james park when it's actual name is sportsdirect@st james park

    Always been called "Celtic Park" but people took it upon themselves to call it "Parkhead"

    TBH I don't mind "Paradise" as a nickname but when like commentators call it "Parkhead" - when it's actually called "Celtic Park" it just seems to get on my nerves a bit lol

    I call it either parkhead, Celtic park or paradise. I don't understand what calling the stadium really matters.

    Tbh mate it probably doesn't really matter but we wouldn't go calling any of the other stadiums by the area that they're based in unless it's the actual name they're dubbed as such as "Ibrox Stadium" for the huns
