how long, has he been your boss now?
Is your team still developing?
maybe he means when he first came in... but then maybe, he's been tapped up as the new Tottenham Boss.

It’s been abundantly clear for years that Celtic’s model has always been one if buying in players at relatively low cost and developing them into first team players who are then at their peak likely to be sold on for profit.

Who were that last big names we bought? Keane, Bellamy, Wright, Ljungberg? None of them could really be termed a success and none of them had any sell on value.

The only exception is French Eddie who was almost a must have exception with the timing of Dembele’s last day departure and again only because we got huge money in. Other than that we’ve paid around a maximum of maybe £5m.

It’s been largely successful for many years now so I don’t see it changing.

I was more interested in the fact he used the word "Was"

between lines is he planning this to be his last season....

Certainly hope not!

Forgive me for being a cynic.

A lot of rumours that we are close to signing McKenna, I put these in the BS category as it suits me that we don't sign him 🙄

I'd seriously suggest that you don't dissect Brendan's comments too much or even pay any attention to them whatsoever. His statements are a mess of garbled nonsense and contradictions.
He talks like a confused drunk. Using the correct tense is the least of it.

He does tend to waffle
Ye get away with talking baws when you’re winning, when results go the other way folk start to analyse what Ye say a bit more
For what it’s wirth I don’t buy into the dropping hints in statements stuff I don’t think he’s that clever linguistically
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Problem is that he thinks he is but he isn't. That's one of the reasons for the occasional mess.

Well there you have it Business hot. Zach and I agree. You can stop worrying....at least you can stop worrying about his use of the past tense.

I don't think it's just this parochial wee country...he's viewed in a similar way in England which is a much bigger parochial country.

He's good at certain aspects of him job imo...I'm just talking about his public pronouncements. In person he's much more engaging.

Rodgers is by some way the best manager in the country but he is human and makes mistakes. That said he has won every domestic trophy he has been involved in since joining us and IF he gets the treble treble then legend status awaits. I hope he is here for the go for 10 but too many factors involved to expect it.

Perhaps they've taken that part of his role away from him?

posted on 12/1/19

He is weird, at least his in public persona is

But nowt wrong in that

Would be a very dull world any other way

That permanent bead of sweat is freaky though

Unless they are announcing/welcoming a new signing i don’t really bother with managerial interviews.
