Garngad-born Hugh Hilley was an all action defender who joined Celtic on May 16th 1921 from St Anthony’s.

The energetic left-back made his debut for the Hoops in a 0-0 league draw at Third Lanark on March 4th 1922 and he would be a regular for the Bhoys for much of the remaining decade. Hugh was an uncompromising defender who was always prepared to go in where it hurt.

He may not have been the most composed of performers but his energy and robust defending was vital to Celtic. Few have been so bloodied, battered and bruised in the name of the Celtic cause than Hugh Hilley. He would play 195 senior games for the Bhoys before being released and retiring in 1930.1930.
