Sucks Ange is leaving but I get it. It’s life changing money there. I don’t think many casuals understand how different the money is today from the handful of big time money leagues vs everywhere else. Ange pulled something off in Scotland I don’t think anyone else in my lifetime has. He brought a totally foreign perspective to Scotland, held to it and had it work. He pushed aside the cynical and very physical, muck it up, Scottish philosophy and stuck with his up tempo, attacking all the time, J League eastern philosophy and won big on it. I don’t think casuals know how bad things looked for Celtic when he came in. Many thought we’d win nothing for a few years and he rebuilt it all in two months. As a Scot I can attest that we are a stubborn people who resist change to a fault and I wonder if any team,… Aberdeen, Hibs, Hearts,… any of the other ‘big’ clubs in Scotland would roll with it and go for a younger name from off the grid like Ange or as to see if their philosophy might be able to nic a title or two from the Old Firm.
On Brendan Rodgers coming back,… it’s safe enough but I’d have preferred a fresh start. I have little doubt he’ll keep trophies coming in tho.
