Yes he’s a Celtic fan. Who the fuck does anybody expect him to support? Because He, not the board wanted to move on, doesn’t mean he suddenly isn’t a fan of the club.
I was dissapointed that he chose now. I initially was a bit angry that he was even thinking about it, but I knew his silence was confirmation he wanted to go, no matter how much I tried to talk myself out of it.
I truly believe in years to come, he will sit and think he should have given us two more seasons and enter the small band of true heroes. That’s gone now.
Maybe, like all of us,I am projecting how I feel and think I would have reacted onto him. But, I’m not him. I don’t have the football world at my feet. No one is offering me £75k a week and nobody is asking me to play in a bigger league. Although they fucking should, as I’ve still got it.
How do I feel today as the dust settles? Sad mainly. I don’t feel hate toward him, I will never feel hate toward him and the reason is I thought of him as my own son, the way we would want all our sons lucky enough to play for Celtic to play and fight.
I would never hate my actual sons for taking a decision their faithir disagreed with. That’s not love. So if people hate him now, my belief is the kind of love they had wasn’t real love. Not the kind of love I would ever want anyway.
Maybe the definition of love is different now. But to me you don’t abandon those you love because they make a choice to move away.
I have sadness but that’s football life. I hope he does well, for selfish reasons too, he moves from Arsenal and we get more money for Lawell to stitch into the curtains.
One of the saddest things though is how the bile is being lapped up by Sevconians everywhere.
Good luck son. I will still give you a hug if I ever bump into you.
