Listen, Martin Neal needs to take a huge amount of credit for this.
The players, I give credit to a lot of the players last week.
They handled the pressure.
They got the job done.
For me, Martin Neal's brought an element of calm back to the club.
When he walked in the door, there was a lot of outside noise.
There was a lot of disruption between the fans and the board and players not happy at the club.
Everything was going wrong.
Martin Neal just brought an element of calm.
And what he did was started to bring belief into the club and belief into the players, belief into the fans again.
And he's absolutely delivered.
The players have delivered today.
All the pressure was on them.
They've got the job done and they've got another trophy.
Yeah, absolutely, and again, our management staff's all about the people that are around about you, yes, Martin O'Neill figureheads it, and he's the front of the face of Celtic, but you've got to give credit to Sean Maloney, Matt Fotherham, you've got Woodsy in there as well, the goalkeeping coach, so they'll have been working tirelessly since Martin O'Neill came in to get this right, and this moment is fully deserved for them, because
They'll put all the hours in, they'll put all the hard yards in on the pitch, on the training pitch, made sure that they can deliver and give these players the best opportunity at delivering.
It's up to the players.
Once they step across that white line, it's up to them.
But this management staff's been special for Celtic.
They've managed to turn this around, which is just incredible when you think of the Wilfred Nancy situation and where they were at that moment that they've ended up with a double this season.
