    Rochdale as well. Villareal and Barcelona are just links with fans rather than a link between the 2 clubs i think. same with NK Dinamo - their fans seem to have a soft spot for us but tbh i think its just the Catholic thing

    I think the Barca link is pretty strong.

    They have a similar identity to us in that they are the non 'establishment' club, I'm pretty sure some of their players were quoted as saying so before the CL last 16 game.

    The GB have a link with the Livorno Ultras. They are strongly leftwing anti-fa, anti-ra.

    Thats correct mate-
    "Celtic, like Barcelona, are more than a football club. Our clubs are a symbol of a culture and community that has not always been made welcome in their respective countries."
    Xavi (Barcelona midfielder)

    Ha, that's the very quote I was after but couldn't be arsed looking for. :50:

    That's not press talk, that's a guy that's done his history.

    Their fans chanted 'Celtic! Celtic!' after they beat us 3-2 at Parkhead in the last 16 of the CL and we applauded their substiutions, to me that's a pretty special relationship.

    More links with Everton mate :50: In my experience Everton have a softer spot for us, and Liverpool prefer the huns. When I went to Ibrox last season (0-0 game) there was a 'Liverpool - Rangers united in friendship' banner, and a lot of mixed scarves.

    I'm very proud of the Barcelona relationship, more so than any other.
