Celtic A fine wine

- Kevin Graham

As we equalled our own 100-year unbeaten record the question was asked if this was the best time that I have had watching Celtic. This is different from other signpost moments. In our centenary year I had youthful naivety and believed it would always be that way. The 1990s then happened and Wim Jansen won our first league title in ten years. That was a relief though.

Along came Martin O’neill. His time is like a thousand fireworks going off behind your eyes when you think about victories. Brendan is cut from the same cloth as O’neill. He has taken the club up another step but in completely different times. Brendan has delivered an unpreceden­ted consistenc­y and performanc­e level. It’s akin to a fine wine. A fantastic buzz, a great after-taste and it will be ageless.
