'This is class' - Journalist left wowed by what Celtic man has just said

The Athletic journalist Jack Pitt-Brooke has been left purring over Ange Postecoglou’s latest comments after Celtic’s win on Wednesday night. 

Celtic sealed all three points in an emphatic derby win over their bitter rivals, which has now taken the Australian’s side to the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Postecoglou’s men got off to the perfect start at Parkhead, with Reo Hatate netting twice and providing Liel Abada with another inside the first half to see the Hoops go into the break 3-0 up.

However, it was not just the football that left many impressed, with the 56-year-old’s post-game comments delighting Pitt-Brooke.

“We had 60,000 in here. I’m sure a lot walked in with some problems in their lives and for 95 minutes we made them forget that and feel good – and that’s something special,” said the Australian. 

And in response, The Athletic journalist took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the Celtic manager’s post-game comments.

“This is class,” Pitt-Brooke tweeted as the quotes were relayed.

He continued: “There’s so much nonsense talked about ‘fan engagement’ these days, usually taking the form of clubs selling fans some nonsense tokens or whatever. But if you want to see *real* engagement, it’s stuff like this.

“Fans aren’t stupid, they know who’s for real and they know who values them and cares about them. And it’s not fan engagement tokens powered by the blockchain.”
