Martin O’Neill, the former Celtic manager, spent five fantastic years at Parkhead, mastering the art of winning the Scottish Premiership title.
Along with three Scottish Cup titles, one Scottish League Cup, and our illustrious journey to the UEFA Cup final in 2003, three league winners’ medals serve as a testament to the strength of his tenure in Glasgow’s east end.
Put simply, O’Neill has seen it all at Celtic, and when he is questioned about his former team in the media, the general public holds his judgment in the highest regard. This legacy, which the 72-year-old had a key part in creating by laying the groundwork for our extraordinary success, has seen the Bhoys dominate Scotland in every aspect of the domestic game. Naturally, Brendan Rodgers has taken over as manager. The former Ireland manager said, “Why not?” when his comeback was announced last summer. He must get past the anger that certain football club supporters felt against him when he left.
“I believe he is aware of that.” However, you start winning football games, just like anything else, and that is overlooked. It is best if you win the games as quickly as possible. Both men have walked similar managerial routes, having each spent time at Leicester City, building strong Premier League resumes, and leading Celtic to a dominant period of success. Rodgers’ team is four points clear of Rangers with five Scottish Premiership games remaining in the current campaign. Hopefully, he can lead the Bhoys to two trophies at the end of the campaign.
Martin O’Neill expresses his emotions after Celtics’ championship surge As everyone is aware, Celtic’s convincing victory over St. Mirren last weekend gave them a boost in their title ambitions, as Rangers were defeated 3-2 by Ross County at the Global Energy Stadium the following day. Speaking live on talkSPORT, O’Neill feels that Rodgers and team have received a “incredible boost” in their quest for a third straight Scottish Premiership title as a result of our competitors’ performance.
He responded, “I don’t think that would be entering Celtic’s heads, and it wouldn’t be,” to Jim White’s question about if Celtic had the Rangers’ number. I would never think that if I were Brendan.
Then O’Neill continued, saying, “How encouraging that was for them yesterday! I’ve done this previously: I turned on the TV hesitantly, saw that Rangers had the lead, finished it, and left it. Coming back to see that they have won the game (Ross County) is amazing and has given Celtic a huge boost. “With so few games remaining, that psychological boost could be enormous.” Celtic will understand how important yesterday’s events were, but we need to make sure they remember it by getting as many points as possible from our remaining five games.
Although some of the scenarios around possible title glory have, admittedly, somewhat unraveled, Rangers would still trail by just one point if they defeat Dundee, indicating that nothing is certain and that giving up is not an option.
