Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers sold Josh Windass in the summer, and he was always impressed by Celtic’s Parkhead ground.

Josh Windass of Rangers has a shot on goalduring the Pre-Seaso n Friendly between Rangers and Bury at Ibrox Stadium on July 6, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Former Glasgow Rangers forward Josh Windass has told Open Goal’s Youtube channel that he found Celtic’s home ground ‘unbelievable’.

Windass was handed his debut for Rangers at Parkhead, and it marked a big rise for the youngster.

Windass had joined Rangers from Accrington Stanley, and immediately after making his first appearance at Celtic, he realised the magnitude of the club he had joined.

He said: “It was going from playing for Accy and then my first game was an Old-Firm at Parkhead and I was looking around the gaff thinking ‘this is unbelievable’. That is when I knew it was a massive club.”

Rangers actually went on to lose 5-1 to Celtic in the contest, with Mark Warburton in charge at the time.

Windass played fairly well for the Ibrox side, but his teammates could not cope against a dominant Celtic team.

Windass has now left Rangers, after deciding that his future lied away from Scotland this summer.

The striker decided to move away from Ibrox soon after Steven Gerrard arrived, and joined Wigan Athletic in the Championship.

Rangers are putting up a better right against Celtic this season, and currently sit two points behind their Glasgow rivals.
