    Treble winning Celtic side coming to play Shamrock Rovers in Tallaght Stadium on July 8th


    Shamrock Rovers v Celtic

    Tallaght Stadium

    Saturday 8th July 2017. Kick off 3pm


    In preparation for the UEFA Champions League qualification match, Brendan Rodgers is bringing his treble winning Celtic squad to take on Shamrock Rovers at Tallaght Stadium.


    Adults tickets only are available from 1pm today on www.shamrockrovers.ie/match-tickets/ priced at €20. Adults (€20) and a limited supply of concession (€10) tickets will be on sale at the Shamrock Rovers v St Patrick’s Athletic game in Tallaght Stadium tomorrow night (June 2nd) inside the ground from half time.


    In build up to the game Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers said that he is very much looking forward to the game and that along with his staff he identified this fixture as a key part of the build up to the new season and their Champions Legaue qualifying rounds. Rodgers said that “we’re looking forward to going over and taking Celtic to our great supporters in Ireland and it’s good point in the season to get some pre season sharpness”. He said that “we’ll have a strong team there, we are not sending a Celtic XI or a reserve team, we are bringing the strongest squad that we have. It will be all the first team squad, players and management”.


    We also hope to have some of the trophies that Celtic won in 2016-17 along to display on matchday.


    Hospitality packages are being put together with more details to follow in the coming weeks. Matchday sponsorship package are also available contact the club for more details: brendanmurray@shamrockrovers.ie or call +353 1 4605948


    Shamrock Rovers have put together a Festival of Footballpackage for the Celtic game, the league game v Drogheda, the Europa League qualifier and the Burnley friendly. Tickets for all 4 games cost €60 for adults, €40 Concessions and €25 for Children U14.

    Not sure will let you know soon as I find out. Hearing it could be in Glasgow but not 100%, info coming from same source at New balance who's always spot on with his rumours!

    Fair play @Notorious.
    Tickets secured. A lot of Rovers fans didn't even know tickets were available, the club had officially advertised they don't go on sale till tomorrow & general sale Saturday.

    I'll give the Rovers game a pass. Usually a * load of guys turn up that have never saw the hoops and it is an excuse for a drinking session for them. Fair play. But I'll leave them to it. Used to go to Southern friendlies all the time but not now.

    I would think the days of the far away trips to the USA and the likes are over, especially given the European demands.

    I notice Liverpool and a few others are sneaking in the "pre season" tour to the Far East at the end of the season. Which maybe something we will explore should things progress/improve on the European front and suits the squad (ie international games).

    Brendan and the staff got the pre-season and probably more importantly the winter break schedule(given the number of games we played, probably more recuperation than preparation) right. Presumably the Middle East trip will be a recurring theme and will have the potential to link in some friendlies if appropriate.
