There's no doubt Celtic's principal shareholder Dermot Desmond has always moved to his own beat.
He has been described by those who know him best as someone who is deeply in tune with all the goings on at Parkhead and what punters want – despite his lack of public appearances. Managers and decision makers rave about the Irish billionaire and Celtic fans – craving more updates – know they have an experienced mind in the middle of the boardroom. And intrigue has been sparked after he was snapped deep in conversation with Ange Postecoglou within Celtic Park.
So what comes next for Celtic? Their dominance on these shores is relentless and they boast a manager the punters adore. Postecoglou is keenly aware of his standing but isn't ready to slow down. It's anything but a crossroads at a club where success is second nature but there's a tangible sense this is the time to strike and produce a European campaign which backs up their uncanny knack to ride roughshod over their opponents in Scotland.
