That is outstanding news, I think he will get some serious backing from the board this summer.

Really exciting.

Such a welcome and pleasant surprise. Really cheered me up.

We can look to the future with even greater optimism.

Brendan is happy. The board are happy and every Celtic supporter will be over the moon.

Makes the task of developing and taking the team forward easier. It's a demonstration of faith by the board in Brendan and he has taken a huge leap of faith be signing this contract.

We've had the odd bit of talk about other clubs being interested in him. Signing this contract allays those fears, at least for a while. If he continues to achieve there will be interest in him and if the right job offer was put to him, he might be tempted. But, at least we have him under contract and would be suitably recompensed.

The squad will get a lift from this and if we continue to be successful, it might be easier to attract the kind of player we want and need to take us to a higher level.

Just Bloomin marvellous. :clap:

"For me, Celtic is the greatest club in the world. What league we're in, how is that perceived? I'm not really bothered."

Hold me.

Absolutely outstanding news and some of Brendan's comments in the press conference would have made your heart burst with pride and anticipation of what lies ahead... biggest signing in 50 years IMO.

I actually really like the rolling contract idea.

I think fixed term does the exact opposite of stop speculation.

I am guessing it's been set with reference to 10 but after that I hope we got back to a rolling contract.

For the avoidance of doubt I'd be delighted (as things stand) if BR was here for 5 years. I don't think any management job is certain over that period tho

No inside info whatsoever but when it came to light that there was going to be a major announcement I had a hunch Brendan had extended his contract and the 12 month rolling would be put to bed.

Really is fantastic news, just finished watching the press conference with him and Lawwell and listening to them both speaking it comes across that everyone at the club is on the same wavelength and for the first time in a long time there is a clear plan for where we want to be moving forward.

Listening to some of the comments from BR about him being happy both personally and professionally, and him not caring about the perception of the Scottish game is extremely pleasing to hear and is a massive giruy to the level 5 fueled SMSM who are choking to see him going back down south.

These are very exciting times, looking forward to us securing 10IAR and progressing well in Europe. This is the beginning of something special and it's a great time to be a supporter of this wonderful club.

I had a wee uneasy feeling about the Arsene situation at Arsenal, the chances were that Brendan wouldn't have gone as he clearly believed in what he was doing with us but this makes sure. A good day for Celtic Football Club.

Absolutely delighted, this is just amazing, amazing news. :clap:

I reckon with the him saying that he doesn't care what people think of our league, that Brendan feels he can really have a proper pop at making serious inroads in the Champions League, further than we have been in the new format. Which of course would be the best way to make those commenting eat their words. And it's great to have a Celtic manager who is regularly in the habit of making them do just that.
