Ange: Champions – that’s who we are!

It was a day tailor-made for Tom Rogic and Nir Bitton to carry the SPFL trophy out on to the hallowed turf of Paradise as 60,000 diehard Celts looked on in a mixture of tears, smiles and a happily familiar sense of déjà vu to bring the curtain down on a truly remarkable season.

After skipper, Callum McGregor spoke to the crowd, the entire East End and beyond could hear the stupendous roar that greeted manager Ange Postecoglou when he emerged from the tunnel to address the supporters.

And, once the singing eventually died down, the clearly moved manager who looked on the verge of breaking down in tears couldn’t have put it any better when he proclaimed:

'Champions – that’s who we are!'

He added: “I just want to thank everyone involved, the board management,” and pointing over at his fellow backroom Bhoys in the middle of the pitch, he added, “I’ve got the best staff in the land – unbelievable effort.

“I’ve got a group of players who have been unbelievable.

“Champions of Scotland and well deserved.”

And the Aussie who could see scores of Australian flags and specially adapted cork slouch hats dotted around the stadium said of the amazing Celtic support:

'And for you, the best on the planet - unbelievable.'

“You’ve embraced me, you’ve embraced my family, you’ve embraced this jumper,” he said tugging at his trademark matchday Celtic pullover.

“And I want everyone to enjoy today, enjoy the summer, and we'll come back, bigger, better - because we WE NEVER STOP.”
