It ticks every single box.
I don't think anybody saw that sort of combination of results but yeah I mean I think just what Josh is saying you know Eva Holliday has done an unbelievable job because you always think it's always you know Glasgow City then Celtic Rangers in recent years have come through to try and win trophies but you know hearts have
surge through there and it's an amazing achievement from her and her players.
I'm not surprised, given the managerial circumstances of the last 12 months, to be honest with you, Andrew.
I think it's just been a situation where they're obviously trying to get the season out of the way, trying to win the league, trying to win the Scottish Cup, and then see what happens.
I think Celtic... I think everything will be geared towards this Champions League play-off, and what the Celtic board, Dermot Desmond's Celtic board, feel gives them the best chance of getting through.
This is the golden ticket for Celtic.
It's a play-off.
They're going to be seeded, I think.
you know as of next season you're not going to get this playoff to the Champions League so this is the last chance for a long time where you've got a real you know one-off shootout to try and get that Β£40 million or whatever it is and I just wonder I agree with Marv in the sense that I think Celtic do need to rebuild at some stage I just wonder in a World Cup summer whether the board will feel that stability is better just now and leaving Martin O'Neill West Sean Maloney Mark Fodium Gavin Strachan all those guys who know the squad know what's required is maybe the best way forward at this moment in time
I mean, Martin O'Neill's already said that he's meeting Dermot Desmond in the next couple of days, so that means everybody's just asking and waiting, supporters especially, for answers, and the players.
But there's a lot of big decisions to be made at Celtic this summer, so if they're going to make a decision, they have to do it right now.
he couldn't really have signed off in a better way he's formed towards the end of the season was remarkable Andrew he hadn't scored in 18 games and then he scored 9 in his last 7 you know he won Celtic the league he won Celtic the cup I think he just looked like a different player you know almost you know it was like a flick switched
And it was just, you know, what was going on.
He just was the player he was last season again.
And those goals have done so much for Celtic, but they've also put millions of pounds back in his price tag as well.
You know, if you'd have said maybe back in March, what would you get for Dijon Maida this summer?
You wouldn't be getting much, but I think there'll now be a queue of clubs down south looking for him.
And I think he'll have his pick.
