    Scotland's national stadium is Hampden Park. However, I have heard that Celtic Park was used for Scotland's international game while Hampden was being redeveloped. Could you tell me how many Scotland's international games were played at Celtic Park? And was Ibrox or Murrayfield used as well?
    How about the Cup finals in that period?

    They beat either Iceland or The Faroes 6-1..............most noted for "Monster Munch" actually scoring a goal at Paradise.

    W've had a few Scotland games at CP, for different reasons. I can only remember Scotland playing at Ibrox once, against Sweden. Murrayfield I can't ever recall being used in my lifetime.

    We've hosted at least one SCF, huns Vs Aberdeen. Ibrox held the Killie/Falkirk one. Both have held a couple of LCF's.

    Aye :50:

    Scotland played the Czechs at CP in 99, too.

    Mordor has hosted them far more than CP in the last 20 years. Even when I saw them listed I couldn't remember the games :smiley-laughing002:

    My first and only ever Scotland game was the one at The Govan Reichstag vs Sweden in 1996. Have absolutely no recollection as to how I got dragged into going to the game nor anything about it.

    Just looked at the teams there - 8 ex-Celtic players involved including Henrik Larsson!

    Watched that game in the De Vere hotel down in Blackpool. The wee ginger mulleted, gaffer loving lesbian came into the bar with his entourage and took over. Near caused a rammy.

    The equaliser was Dermot O'Leary coming into the bar with his Celtic international/european shirt on.

    The lass Middlemiss was there too for the eye candy.

    Celtic Park has been a home venue for the Scotland National Team over 20 times, the most of any ground apart from the national stadium, Hampden Park.
