Formed on November 6, 1887 in East Glasgow, where the club is still based. The first match was against eternal rival Rangers. The Glasgow derby between Celtic and Rangers, known as the Old Firm, is one of the fiercest in the world. Celtic are traditionally the club of Catholic Scotland and of its Irish community. Bhoys is the traditional Irish spelling of Boys. Hoops is a reference to the "hoops" on the jerseys. Celtic were the first British (and still only Scottish) club to win the European Cup.
