    I made my peace with this on Friday when things started to gather pace.

    I will be thankful to Ange for the blend of football that he brought to us and will wish him well down here.

    Spurs are nothing to me so their new manager and his his team next season will probably register below what I am having for dinner tonight.

    We are the biggest club in Scotland with,

    The best squad
    The biggest and best stadium
    The best finances and sponsorship deals
    The best run club
    The best fans

    I am excited to see who we will turn to for next season and I am sure that the good times will keep on rolling.

    We are Celtic, we move on. :ynwacelti

    Defo feels like he's snaked us a bit but trying to temper my anger and bitterness because Celtic isn't the be all and end all to players and managers, it's just a job. I'm sure I'll calm down in time but dunno if I'll ever actively root for teams he manages in future, it works both ways and I'm a Celtic supporter not an Ange Postecoglou supporter.
    I'm an * though so I'm not gonna be doing vlogs ranting or crying or punching * out of and hosting burials for cardboard cutouts or any cringey * like that.

    Some amount of histrionics man :56:.

    I can only imagine this is how daft wee lassies behaved when Robbie left Take That.

    I'm not sure I can criticise Ange too much.

    We've players and managers who have claimed to be supporters who have left in less respectable circumstances. Ange has never claimed to be attached emotionally to the club.

    BR and KT, for example, left us in the most surprising circumstances. Both stood on their soap boxes and declared blah De blah about their love of the club.

    The simple fact is, money and the pull of a better league is just too much to turn down when it's put in front of you.

    Ange was as respectful to us as he possibly could be, given the circumstances. He refused to deny the support of the chance to celebrate, even though we kinda knew. Still, he wouldn't * on our parade.

    He'll be a massive loss to us, and one I hope he doesn't regret, but any one of us who could move on to vastly better pay would do well to turn it down.

    It's simply a job at the end of the day.

    He was in a no win situation.

    It is what it is man, anything we offered wasn't gonna compete with the prestige and riches of the EPL and his ambitions of making a dent there. Its annoying and I feel a bit bitter towards him but Celtic will be fine and life goes on. Not gonna start slagging him and calling him a fat * or whatever cause of it.

    No one made him quote Tommy Burns then have a giggle with his agent on the park immediately after.

    If he was upfront I doubt the reaction would have been as bad.

    Our support really come off like spoilt * at times like this. No one is happy he's going but some of the treatment I've seen of a man who had just delivered a treble is ridiculous. Same as Rodgers a double treble winning manager too, 2 men who have given us a few of the best * seasons in our history.

    We are held back by the shackles of Scottish football, simple as that. No one is turning down epl to stay in Scotland not a single player or manager in the league.

    Believe it or not some people are criticising him for not saying there was Spurs interest and he would be considering it after the final.

    Another (possibly the same person) had a go at him for ‘making this week all about him’. :39:

    It’s a minority to be fair. Emotions are raw right now.
