I just wanted to say how proud I was of the team yesterday.
With the anniversary of the Lisbon lions, doing a treble for only the fourth time in our history, and probably a once in a lifetime opportunity to go through an entire domestic season unbeaten, the pressure on these players was absolutely massive.
I think that because Aberdeen turned up and made a match of it, the win seemed even more special.
I must admit that when Brendan Rodgers was appointed last year, I wasn't totally convinced he was the best choice. I'd seen that for a while as Liverpool's boss they couldn't defend to save their lives, and I feared that he might be another Tony Mowbray, where we were okay going forward but defensively a shambles.
The job he's done here though has been magnificent, the way he has improved several players, the team spirit that he's created, and his tactical knowledge, has absolutely transformed us. I've not enjoyed watching a Celtic team as much as this one for many years.
My only worry looking ahead to next season is that how can you top this, I mean we could win the treble again, yet if we lost one league match, some people would say that we couldn't match the achievements of the previous season, that's how high the bar has been set.
Well done Brendan and the team, you have earned your own place in Celtic's history.

Think a lot of us were the same Gerry I have to admit he wasn't my first choice after some of the Liverpool stuff but as good managers and players do he has learned from his mistakes and has done an unbelievable job and lifted the entire support let's hope it's just the start. H.H.
