I hope he goes on to have a brilliant career.<br /><br />My article is not directed at Kieran Tierney, but at his hero-worshipping fans getting all maudlin about what a big Celtic man he is. Celtic men don't hop on a plane to London to sign for another club while we're playing a Champions League qualifier.<br /><br />His love for Celtic proved to be of as much relevance when Arsenal came calling as the love for Celtic held by Forster, Hooper, Wanyama, van Dijk, Armstrong, Dembele etc - ie, it meant nothing.<br /><br />But like you, he goes with my best wishes.Daniel O'Connellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09969220864160232831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858894039508424030.post-78326692803547786852019-08-09T08:50:29.316-07:002019-08-09T08:50:29.316-07:00Thanks for taking the time to leave a measured and...Thanks for taking the time to leave a measured and reasonable comment.<br /><br />I never said he's not a diehard Celtic fan, but he's not diehard enough to turn down Arsenal when they came calling and that's a fact. I don't care who Scott Brown used to support, or who he supports, he has shown his commitment to Celtic by spending almost his whole career with us when he could have moved on.<br /><br />Not sure why you think McGrory has no relevance to today? Like Tierney, he could have earned at least treble his wages by signing for Arsenal, but turned it down because Celtic was the only club he wanted to play for. The two situations are exactly the same. McGrory's love of Celtic turned out to be deeper than Tierney's.<br /><br />Good luck to Kieran Tierney at Arsenal, I wish him every success. But however much he supports Celtic, it wasn't enough to keep him at Celtic. He's an Arsenal man now.Daniel O'Connellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09969220864160232831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858894039508424030.post-26861038434809203682019-08-09T00:13:30.412-07:002019-08-09T00:13:30.412-07:00Mr O'Connell is spot on.

My god what kind of heroin are you actually on? Tales of Willie Maley,McGrory and others have got absolutely feck all relevance in this day and age! and the club's clubs utter bollocks that they tried all they could to keep him is,in my opinion UTTER garbage!

He is still learning his craft and I believe he should have stayed at Celtic for the 10 in a row. Then would have been the better time to move on. What happens if he finds it much more difficult to perform at English premiership level? On the bench or part of a rotational system wouldn't suit him. Best of luck young to him and I hope he plays well down there.👍👍👍Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10117905176689856184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858894039508424030.post-83609443483320547822019-08-08T08:11:27.510-07:002019-08-08T08:11:27.510-07:00Got to agree with Daniel, the boys 22 not 32 ,he ...Got to agree with Daniel, the boys 22 not 32 ,he earns a million a year at the team he's supported all his life , 10 in a row is so close you can almost touch it !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04884197735291987866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-858894039508424030.post-39288382084085927422019-08-08T08:05:56.690-07:002019-08-08T08:05:56.690-07:00Beautifully summed up.
