Family of young Celtic fan appeal for ‘paradise’ tribute in memory of Hoops-daft son

Dylan Marc Bogue was left wheelchair-bound after being diagnosed with the life-limiting genetic disorder Duchenne muscular dystrophy when he was just a toddler.

The 23-year-old, who was also a season ticket holder for his local side Ross County, still enjoyed regular trips to Celtic Park where he met several past and present players including Leigh Griffiths and Scott Brown.
