Surely it's time for a year off..?

I've seen some good ones , unfortunately they all have some pesky irrelevance like Jimmy Johnstone, Pat Stanton or Willie Henderson getting in the way...

No.

Nowhere near as insufferable or pointlessly rude as 'Big Ange' however. Good to have a grown up back in the room..

I remember those days too....much, much better now. This might possibly be the best Scotland squad since I was first old enough to pay attention (1969). What we do have, without doubt , is the best Scotland manager since the national team started having a manager.

It's a great lyric.....and, to quote a phrase, if that don't suit you that's a drag...

Yep for the SFA's 150th anniversary....same pub team from down south that came up for the 100th anniversary full of fancy ideas..........wha's like us !!!!!!!

I'd say that Brendan has got his sights on being the 2nd best Celtic manager of all time. Certainly very achievable. .

They don't have a hat ?? Robert Kelly used to sport a natty Homburg but that was a while ago admittedly.

The only angry people seem to be the less intelligent and perceptive element of the Celtic support who fail to realise Celtic now have a better manager than they had last season. Maybe some Rangers types sensed a glimmer of hope before Brendan stepped back aboard but the rest of us understand that an imploded Celtic only let their old firm partners gorge on a slice of the pie and that's in no one's interest.

Scotland 1, ... Georgia 2 is far more likely than us 'pummelling' them, indeed pummelling anyone. Where do people get this stuff from ? Not from a history of watching the Scottish international team that's for sure.

Very impressive...almost John Clarkesque..

It would be well nigh impossible for Brendan to do worse than Postegoclu as Celtic manager in Europe. I think Celtic are set fair after a fantastic summer. They've lost Postecoglu and replaced him with an upgrade.

Was that before or after he starred in 'Love Thy Neighbour' ?

I applaud whoever in the Celtic heirarchy sanctioned getting Brendan back. Now do the decent thing and disband this 'Green Brigade' thing.

You're right.

Rumours abound that The Blessed Brendan will attempt to placate the more devout of the fan base by changing his name by deed poll to Rhodgers.

"A narcissistic, lying fucker".....why ? Because he had the temerity to leave one job for a bigger job with more money ? Like Jock Stein leaving Dunfermline Athletic for Hibs in 1964 or Jock Stein leaving Hibs for Celtic in 1965. Was he 'a lying, narcissistic fucker' ? Surely not !!??

There's room to enjoy and appreciate both. But constantly glorifying the mediocre and sneering like crazed inverted snobs at anything outwith our own wee world appears to be the default setting which is fair enough.

Yep....when up against teams who he doesn't massive financially outmuscle or who are beaten before they step on the pitch because they've had years of 'Sportsound' or 'Superscoreboard' drip feeding them on how 'massive' Celtic are, he tends to struggle...Do you think English football fans are so thick they're incapable of looking up Celtic's record in Europe under Postegoclu ?

And your experience of England and English people is what ?? a) non-existent; b) built on lazy stereotypes; c) diligently garnered through many happy hours on the Norfolk Broads....?

What's silly about it ? Again, a simple question......what is the great mystery of Scottish football they don't know about ?

What's there to know about Scottish football ? Only one of two clubs can ever win the league. One of those two went bust a few years ago, thus being a semi - competent manager of the other club virtually guarantees you win the title. Let's not kid anyone on that the top flight of Scottish football is anymore mysterious or difficult to fathom than that.

I don't think there's much ignorance among English football fans...they see exactly what we up here see - a Celtic team who sweep all before them domestically solely due to a massive financial advantage and all the media and refereeing soft-pedaling that their status as the establishment club brings. Therefore Spurs fans look to see how things have gone under Postegoclu when that massive advantage has been removed.
