    Always liked Pressley, wish we had got him a lot earlier than we did. Could have been a fantastic player for us. He did well in his brief time here.

    Enjoyed having him here and gave us some great moments, I'll always fondly remember him.

    Even when blunders crept into his game at times you know he'd soon pull off a worldly!

    What a nutter too :56:

    His comments during the whole Legia scenario were unsurprising but still a hit dissappintment. Seem to remember a tweet from him.

    I know he grew up with them but after the bond he created here with the fans etc 9 thought he'd be a bit more neutral.

    Remind me of what he said? I recall him putting in his thoughts but can't remember how harsh he was.

    He's was going with the #letfootballwin thing cos they * us but got papped oot cos a player registered incorrectly (who only actually played for a bout 5mins if a remember right)

    Was a bit disappointed in him too with that but loved him when he was here.

    He had that craziness that every goalkeeper should have.

    He was such a hero. His charisma, personality, and almost arrogance at times was absolutely key to that team. Makes the whole team relax when your keeper has the characteristics that he did.

    Although he is loved as a cult hero amongst the supporters, I still feel he is slightly overlooked and a little bit underrated perhaps due to the way his career here fizzled out a bit at the end.

    For two years he was almost invincible, pulling off saves that were almost lost causes. It's no exaggeration to say he was amongst the top 5 keepers in the world in around 2006-2007. His ability alone made him a wonderful goalkeeper but his personality and rapport with the fans made him even better.

    I don't blame him one little bit for that. That was a disgrace and an embarrassment, they beat us (pumped us, actually) fair and square and went out on an admin error. As a Legia fan, he was always going to say what he did. We'd all have said much worse if the roles had been reversed and I think the bond he created here is probably why he did tone his comments right down (c.f. the comments about us by other people connected with Legia).

    Of course none of this was Celtic's fault (although I dread the next time we play Legia, because their fans seem to want a scapegoat); but neither did Boruc blame us at any point.

    Boruc looked in better condition in the legends game than when he was here playing
