Ange Postecoglou and Rodgers have both been fulsome in their praise of the work done by Lawwell Jr but there was no suggestion that the Australian wanted to take Mark with him to Spurs.
Vata has clearly become increasingly concerned about his stalled development compared to peers elsewhere, with Marco Tilio and Yang Hyun-jun joining Celtic in the summer his situation isn’t going to get better any time soon.
Seriously! Our staff and players are not safe at ibrox, a former Celtic player now TV presenter has been told they cannot guarantee his safety, but he thinks its fine for 700 of our fans to go
At 3.29 today Andy Devlin of The Sun broke the news that Celtic had turned down tickets for Ibrox with the story quickly moving on to Bisgrove’s demand for 800 tickets to Celtic Park on December 30.
He seemed very off guard during the podcast, almost as if he was sharing small talk with chums in the BBC canteen. Clearly unburdening a lot of resentment he claimed that Rodgers would be livid at not getting the Spurs job that Postecoglou left Celtic for.
Between February 26 and April 29 the Beale myth took an absolute battering as he lost to Celtic in three competitions with a defeat at Pittodrie thrown into the mix.
Two seasons ago Vata played with Ben Doak and Owen Moffat in the Celtic B team, one got away almost as soon as possible while the other stayed on too long.
