AROUND 50 Celtic fans were attacked in an Amsterdam pub last night – hours after they featured on Dutch TV.

The Hoops supporters were drinking in Cafe Old Sailor in the city’s famous red light district when masked men entered.

A Dutch news website said the thugs shouted: “Amsterdam Hooligans.”

Witnesses said a fight broke out before the attackers fled and security staff barricaded the doors.

A man who answered the pub phone last night declined to comment.

Dutch police were unable to provide any details.

Earlier, Celtic fans in the bar were interviewed by a local news crew ahead of tonight’s Champions League clash with Ajax.

It is feared yobs targeted the pub as they knew Celtic fans would be inside.

Ajax could face sanctions from Uefa over fans’ behaviour during the first leg at Celtic Park last month.

Dutch supporters clashed with stewards after Celtic’s first goal in a 2-1 win, ripping up seats and throwing them into the home sections.

The case will be dealt with by Uefa’s disciplinary body on November 21.
