While experience does not always translate into wisdom, it can provide a more comprehensive perspective of past events compared to current affairs.

Because of my 54-year journalistic background and my personal experience, I am able to conclude that we are living in historic times regarding the Celtic- Rangers rivalry.

Engels took the place of the Portuguese and will undoubtedly pose a threat to his starting spot moving forward. Rodgers’ team, though, seems to understand that rotation isn’t a form of rejection. It is an example of the squad’s depth of strength.

It’s common knowledge that a manager with that kind of abundance of talent then has
