Glasgow Celtic FC Football Club Metal Pin Badge Crest Logo Emblem Official

Product Information

It wasn’t until the late seventies when the four leaf clover became the emblem emblazoned on the strip, and has been since used to the present day as the club crest. May perpetual light shine upon my Auntie Bridget and my Dad and Canon McCabe, and all deceased members of Celtic Supporters Clubs throughout the world.

After our first year when the club badge was without doubt the Celtic Cross, it was another 90 years before the club badge would appear on the jerseys. The team also wore an away strip with a large three-leafed shamrock as the badge in the fifties, but then all the strips were without a crest on the strip. The club’s name was written in the same way, although where the founding year was on the previous logo, there was now a clover. In 1988, the club celebrated their centenary with a badge derived from the Celtic cross of their very first badge.

After the 2007/08 season, the star was retained and the badge remained the same until 2012/13 season, when Celtic celebrated their 125th anniversary by using a 1994 badge encircled by an attractive Celtic knot and an alternative badge featuring a Celtic cross. Not surprisingly for Fergus there was controversy too as he tried to get the idea off the ground that the badge should be changed to appeal to the Scottish business community and should incorporate a thistle. Clear examples of the 3 leaf being used until then was the large green 3 leaf shamrock glass plaque in honour of John Thomson along with the large 3 leaf shamrock used on his goalkeeper top which was common at that time. Obviously the club’s symbols and colours are Irish befitting of our humble beginnings but many probably don’t know that we only started using the hoops in 1903 after wearing green and white stripes before then and of course the original white top with green collar and Celtic cross on the right breast for the first season only.

The judges who participated in the election, plus four judges from ESPORTE FINO, were: Everaldo Marques (ESPN Brazil), Helena Jacob (journalist, graphical teacher of design and master in semiotics), Mauricio Noriega (SporTV), Mauro Beting (Bandeirantes Radio, TV Band, BandSports) and Rodolfo Rodrigues (journalist and historian, author of the book, Badges of Football Teams of the Entire World). Along the top of the resulting green frame, they’ve written the club’s name – ‘the Celtic Football Club’ – in white letters. As ever, I am indebted to Dave at Historical Football Kits for some of the historical information used above. Its a metal crest badge with a stud fixed you can wear them on your shirt scarf bag or anywhere else you can think to put them. The Athletic aspect covered that in the original days the board likely wished to attract other events to the club as well as football to broaden the club’s mandate as well as to generate revenue (e.The old traditional Celtic Cross badge made a re-appearance in the ‘Centenary Season’ (1987-88), and again in 2003 to celebrate 100 years of the Hoops top. My father invited me to speculate as to who that might be: I suggested ‘the driver’, I was told to behave myself. None the less the removal of the badge from the article came across as rather pompous and humourless. In addition to these highlights, for three consecutive seasons (2016/17, 2017/18 and 2018/19), Celtic have won every domestic trophy on offer (nine), completing the first Scottish ‘treble-treble’ (no other Scottish side has even won the domestic treble in two consecutive seasons). Executed in green and white, the color combination which associates with the country most, it features a four-leave clover as the main element.

It certainly looks as though it had been officialy adopted by 1938, which was a few years before the creation of the Celtic Supporters Association and the Bonnybridge CSC. The obverse inscribed Celtic Football Club, 1908, the reverse inscribed Presented By The Directors Of Celtic F. After due consultation and consideration, Celtic supporters either at club or association level responded to this ‘request’ and the plaque design was gifted to Celtic F.

Ned and Elizabeth were married in Shettleston in 1892 and they produced 16 children, the first born Mary 1893 and the youngest in 1915 – James. Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the club’s existence, they adopted this logo: a white circle with a lot of green elements. One possible theory is that it is possible that if Celtic had won only the three then a three-leafed clover would have been used likely gone on to become the club emblem.

We also host Celtic AM live at Malone’s, Glasgow, before home games and host numerous events throughout the World for Celtic Fans. It’s an important emblem of the club and the support, and one of the world’s most recognisable symbols.

The most popular away strip ever worn by the club also featured the large green 3 leaf shamrock as late as the early 60s.
