And those years in green and white earned the Polish stopper a lifetime of adoration with Celtic fans. <\/p>\n

He even turned down huge interest in his time in Glasgow<\/a>, revealing years later: \u201cI had Manchester City<\/a>, Arsenal<\/a> and Spurs after me and I remember speaking to Arsene Wenger<\/a> on the phone.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut it was just before the World Cup<\/a> and I was desperate to play for Poland<\/a> at the finals and I couldn\u2019t be sure I would be first choice goalkeeper at any of those clubs.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I signed a new contract with Celtic.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u2018Holy Goalie\u2019 was at the Old Firm derby on Sunday, as Celtic beat rivals Rangers<\/a> 3-1. <\/p>\n

He shared a snap outside Celtic Park ahead of the match<\/a>, which moved the Hoops within one point of leaders Hearts<\/a>. <\/p>\n

And Boruc enjoyed celebrating the Hoops massive victory in Glasgow\u2019s City Centre, even posing for a picture outside a pub. <\/p>\n

One bar shared a snap of the Hoops\u2019 former goalie enjoying his afternoon saying: \u201cGreat to have the Holy Goalie Artur Boruc<\/a> pop by earlier today after the game.\u201d<\/p>\n

That was Connolly\u2019s Irish Bar on Bell Street in the city\u2018s Merchant City area, a pub popular with Hoops fans. <\/p>\n

And there was plenty of Celts out in force enjoying celebrating the monumental victory. <\/p>\n

The three points helped move the Celts to within one point of Hearts<\/a> at the top of the table. <\/p>\n

Hearts let the Hoops get so close after dropping points to Motherwell<\/a> on Saturday evening. <\/p>\n

And now Celtic need to travel to Motherwell and avoid defeat, as if they lose and Hearts win on Wednesday night, Hearts will be champions. <\/p>\n

But it looks like it might comes down to a final day shootout, with Celtic and Hearts facing off on Saturday, and depending on midweek results, it could well be a winner takes all match. <\/p>\n

There could yet be time for another twist in this seasons tale, as Hearts have led the way for most of the season, and Celtic could nip in and take the title from right under their noses. <\/p>\n
