Glasgow Celtic at eleven-a-side.com, the home of Irish soccer (1715 words)

The club's fast flowing, end to end football was both successful and attractive and when the club won the league championship for six successive seasons, 1905-10, the club enjoyed unparalleled popularity among religionists across the sectarian divide.
League titles were retained year on year with the famous nine in a row being achieved from 1966 to '74.
