Ange Postecoglou appeared to be summing up his time at Celtic in his post match media duties at Hampden.
After securing a world breaking treble with his Hoops side, Ange Postecoglou sat down with the media and proclaimed he was a joke when he was made out to be a joke when he was appointed Hoops boss. The inference that those who laughed at the time aren’t laughing now.
However, he credited the Celtic fans for backing him when it would have been easier to throw him under the bus during his slow start at Parkhead.
Listen to Ange who became rally introspective during the conference. The Australian pointing out when the media were going for their pound of flesh, Celtic fans put their arms around him and said ‘he’s one of ours’.
The manager clearly emotional about the backing he’s had from the support.
However, he was talking like a man who wasn’t going to be here next season. With rumours swirling around over Ange’s future and the Celtic manager body swerving any opportunity to provide clarity, fans are resigned to losing the manager in the coming days.
