Dublin, 54, stunned everyone in Denholm’s Bar in Hope Street after visiting the pub as he geared up for the Auld Enemy clash at Hampden.

The football pundit has made the trip to Glasgow ahead of the derby match between Steve Clarke’s Scotland and Gareth Southgate’s England.

The two nations went head-to-head at the national stadium to commemorate the 150th anniversary of their first meeting in 1872.

Dublin was on punditry duties for the 3-1 England win and he was soaking up the atmosphere ahead of the ‘friendly’ fixture.

And despite cheering on the other side, the staff at Denholm’s Bar loved having the former England international in the venue.

Sharing pictures of him behind the bar and pulling pints, the pub wrote on social media: “When @diondublin09 comes to Denholm’s 🙌.”

The Hope Street bar wasn’t the only place Dublin visited as he also stopped in to the Rhoderick Dhu in Waterloo Street too.

The former Manchester United, Aston Villa and Norwich City forward joined Celtic for a brief spell at the latter stages of his career after leaving Leicester in 2006.

His contract with Leicester was terminated by mutual consent in January that year and Gordon Strachan moved quickly to snap him up on a short-term deal until the end of the 2005/06 season.

He helped the Hoops win the league title and League Cup that year with several cameo appearances, scoring one goal against Kilmarnock.

Dublin was then released by the club in May and he went on to return to Norwich before hanging up his boots in 2008.

The four-cap international has enjoyed a successful career in the media since then, working as a pundit for various broadcasters including Sky Sports and BBC.

He joined the cast of Homes Under the Hammer in 2015 and reached the final of BBC’s Celebrity Master Chef in 2021.
