Title won on March 7th. I know Scotland is a cr@p league but, ye Gods.....
You hear he'll be a good manager because he was a class player, etc, etc & they ending failing, Gerrard has come in & no only stopped the 9 year monopoly of Celtic but smashed the league to stop their dominance, where will he go next, Liverpool?There are 6 games left, you can criticise but Liverpool won the title with 7 games left last season.
Even considering the general uncompetitive nature of Scottish footballers, it's still a big achievement from them given the starting position of the two clubs.
My thoughts exactly - they would love yto have him back, whether he can be a success in a more competitive league is another thing!You hear he'll be a good manager because he was a class player, etc, etc & they ending failing, Gerrard has come in & no only stopped the 9 year monopoly of Celtic but smashed the league to stop their dominance, where will he go next, Liverpool?
Going great in Europe as well, something Celtic haven’t done in a long time.You hear he'll be a good manager because he was a class player, etc, etc & they ending failing, Gerrard has come in & no only stopped the 9 year monopoly of Celtic but smashed the league to stop their dominance, where will he go next, Liverpool?
He's turned the form book upside down, is this his 2nd season in chargeGoing great in Europe as well, something Celtic haven’t done in a long time.
Can’t imagine him going anywhere else. See how Liverpool get on next season.You hear he'll be a good manager because he was a class player, etc, etc & they ending failing, Gerrard has come in & no only stopped the 9 year monopoly of Celtic but smashed the league to stop their dominance, where will he go next, Liverpool?
A bit like Lampard to Chelsea I can’t see it working out so well. He should give himself at least five years in management before even considering it if he wants to keep his Liverpool legacy intact.I think Klopp is in for the German national team job, Gerrard a certainty for Liverpool if that happens.
Celtic were the first club in the UK to be crowned European Champions though, a record that can NEVER be broken.Going great in Europe as well, something Celtic haven’t done in a long time.
The stat that blows my mind is every player in the team was Scottish and every one born within a 30 miles radius of Celtic Park, no club will ever be able to boast that againCeltic were the first club in the UK to be crowned European Champions though, a record that can NEVER be broken.
Truly unremarkable statThe stat that blows my mind is every player in the team was Scottish and every one born within a 30 miles radius of Celtic Park, no club will ever be able to boast that again
I agree. He's done great so far at a club where the pressure is always on - but running Liverpool is a massive step up again. They wouldn't even consider hiring any other manager whose only achievements were in Scotland.A bit like Lampard to Chelsea I can’t see it working out so well.

Derby games between them and Rangers don't seem to have the edge that they did in those days because the "Local Lad" factor is missing now and I think the same can be said of "Derbies" in general, they seem to have lost the oomph ! factor.The stat that blows my mind is every player in the team was Scottish and every one born within a 30 miles radius of Celtic Park, no club will ever be able to boast that again
Stein's European cup triumph in 1967 gets more remarkable the more you read about it. It's an interesting thought that Matt Busby was knighted after Man U did it a year later, and Stein wasn't.
