    I found this on another forum it was posted by a guy called Smelltheglove.
    Not sure how true it is but if this is what was actualy said. Then I think it was great.:50:

    Apparently this is Gordon Strachan's speech (as described by a lip reader) to the players in the huddle after the game at Tannadice which Paul Hartley recently described as being 'inspirational'...

    "...that lot with their pens and notepads, their exclusives, and their match reports saying we had no chance of retaining this title, we proved they know nothing about us, our fans or our club...

    That lot standing there singing, with their scarves up above their heads, chanting the name of a special man who everybody connected with this club loves, that's who we won this title for..

    ...for our supporters, for ourselves, but most of all for Tommy, so be proud of yourselves, hold your heads high, look up to the heavens and shout loud and proud... look what we did Tommy, we did the 3 in a row"

    I watched the game, had no idea what he said in the huddle, but cried anyway-that sounds pathetic but you just knew it was of that ilk so i don't doubt that was actually what he said. And then to top it all wgs walked out with a cuppa. He's celtic through and through...

    Brilliant, there was definitely something emotional said in that huddle, a few players showed it directly after.

    Wow! I hope to * that's true. Nearly greeting reading that...........TB has left his mark in more ways than one. Hopefully any doubters out there now know that WGS understands and is part of the Celtic Family.

    I have nothing to base this on, I dont think WGS prepared that beforehand, words like that, at that time, at the end of that week, come from the heart.

    Well done wee man, your words captured exactly what every single one of us was thinking at that moment.

    Shivers down the spine stuff.
