Great night at the Armadillo tonight. Few quiet digs into the manky mob went down a treat. The story of Danny McGrain turning up for the first day of training under BR, in his own gear, and asking if he’s still wanted, is both humbling and heartening. A true great

I wasnt at the Armadillo so dont know the Danny story. But i do know Brendan's a class act and total gentleman who knows the history. I expect the story ended with Danny still with us,much loved and valued. We're very lucky to have a man and manager of his wisdom and soul at our club. Both of them. |

It’s a story I’d like to hear too. The idea of turning Danny McGrain away from Celtic Park is too desperately sad to contemplate. |

Night at the Armadillo was great. Brendan was as honest and charming as ever - crowd lapped it up and were just the right side of enthusiastic -I thought Brendan might not get a chance to speak for shouts and chants but that wasn't the case. Eamonn Holmes - who was excellent - asked how it felt to win the treble - a shout came from the crowd which was heard by everyone ' f.....g great' Brendan waited for the laughs to subside and brought the house down with his own ' yeah f.....g great ' Brendan swears !!!!!!! |

Just like us V Aberdeen though, when you have higher quality players, you can win the 1v1 situations and actively try to create them. They were great at isolating Gamboa last time out. I think we have to just be at our best and have the right attitude. Then hope they aren't. The big problem we've had against the big guns under BR is showing them too much respect, standing off and not tackling. Change that and we have a better chance of at least competing. |

Brendan was at his first day at Lennoxtown, and his full day was full of meeting the staff and players. His PA then informed him that Danny McGrain wanted to meet him later that day. Being a lifelong Tim, BR was saying he was the one who was excited about it. So the meeting comes and Danny McGrain walks in. Unlike everyone else who has been kitted out in the brand new New Balance training gear on their first day back, Danny walks in in his own gear and sits down. He then says to Brendan; "I wasn't sure if you still wanted me." Brendan then tells them that as long as he's here of course Danny will be here. He's Danny McGrain. Paraphrased slightly, but hopefully you get the jist. Was a lovely story. Was great to see Danny there too last night. A hero

Yeah I think that's the case, said the same thing last night to my mate. He also gave a mention to Tosh McKinley, saying he was doing an excellent job scouting for us. Was nice to see him give a wee mention to a few of the ex-players who still work around the club. |

^^^^ The point was that Danny being Danny wouldn't make any assumptions he still had a job which was why he didn't change into the training gear until he had spoken to Brendan about it. Anybody who knows Danny will know to this day he still will only refer to Jock as "Mr.Stein" - Similarly to this day Ten Thirty still talks about Jock as "The Boss". Brendan talked about The Lions and Greats like Danny never losing their "humility" - Just like Brendan himself. - You could see he was close to tears when he came to talking about losing his parents.It was a good wee night - The couple of pops at the Zombies and although set up and obviously coming the "Glasgow Derby" line still worked well. |

I think , for perhaps the first time ever, our players are being tutored in the deviant practices of the SMS , and told not to make any provocative replies to loaded questions. I am really pleased to see this, as it gives these leeches absolutely nothing to use against us. They tried so hard to goad Bitton into talking about the unbeaten Record, but he took his time, and swatted their attempts at headline grabbing aside. Well done to whoever is coaching the players in this.
