Brendan Rodgers speaking outside Celtic Park after the game last night would bring a tear to a TIMS glass eye. Walking around with KT shaking hands as a one guy say's 'thank-you Brendan' before a woman says 'God Bless you son. Finally Brendan chokes and can't quite get it out as he speaks about winning his first trophy 'for the club he's supported alll his life'. That talk he had with Tommy Burns must have made some impression. 'When you become the manager of Celtic Brendan-you become the leader of a people and a cause'. It was Brendan's destiny I think to manage Celtic. Like Tommy and KT and Big Billy and Bertie he is one of us. And to see the Celtic players from other countries like Henrik before them of all faiths and none developing a life long attachment to Celtic makes me proud to be a member of the Celtic Family. PS: Grace must be the best non-football song sung at football of all time. Thanks Green Brigade.

Well said JFP

At times like yesterday I always remember individuals in my life that Celtic meant so much too and introduced me to Celtic who are no longer sadly here

I said to you yesterday that I love that song I could see all the sevconians @ t semi final perplexed @ what we were signing to also see if there was a reason for them too complain about it!

Tommy Burns is my fav Celt and surely he must be next to be honoured after next years 50 milestone after the Lions (y)
