Old Firm "friendly" in Boston (Mass.) this summer?

[Tim Little]

Looks like the plans still up in the air, but yes, this would be a great "kilt night" event!

[Tim Little]

It's a no-go: Rangers have other plans, it seems.

Too bad; it would have been quite an event!

[Lachlan09]

Aye well, that's the teddy-bears for you.

At least the Jambos would have turned up !

[Tim Little]

Well, Rangers may have said "no" but at least Celtic will show up at Fenway on July 21:

The Boston Red Sox have announced that Fenway Park will host an exhibition soccer game between Celtic FC of the Scottish Premier League and Sporting Clube de Portugal, commonly called "Sporting," on July 21.

just announced Glasgow Celtic will play Sporting Lisbon on July 21 at Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox

[Tim Little]

There shouldn't be a bad seat in the house:



Of course Fenway is no stranger to hosting non-baseball events, most recently this year's NHL "Winter Classic" between the Flyers and the Bs.

I just hope the field doesn't get too chewed up for the Sox' return on July 30.

Today's the day; anyone going?
