Harald Brattbakk adds his name to the list of former Celts for charity game.
HARALD Brattbakk knows the history. He helped make it too. The Norwegian forward is coming back to Paradise for the sold out Henrik’s Heroes v Lubo’s Legends match in aid of Celtic FC Foundation on May 28.
The former Celt who scored 20 goals in 60 games said: “It is always good to be at Celtic Park but doing it for such a good cause is a further reason to be pleased.
Even before arriving at the club in 1997, he had an understanding of the club’s formation as a charity to feed the poor. He said: “When I knew I was joining the club, I studied its history to know what it was about.
“It is fundamental to care about other people and it was good to know the club has being doing that for more than 100 years. It is very good to be part of that.”
Harald, of course, is part of the history, scoring one of the goals in the 2-0 win over St Johnstone that won the league in 1998.
