Celtic may be Eastenders but that’s where the drama stops as far and Ange Postecoglou is concerned.
One of the former main characters may be making a minor scene on the way out but the Celtic boss is just glad the rest of his cast are sticking to the script. Postecoglou certainly wasn’t going to go full Peggy Mitchell after hearing Josip Juranovic was a bit sad Celtic didn’t put up more of a fight before letting him exit stage left to Union Berlin. There was a feeling the Croatian was written out of the show when he started considering switching channels but replacement Alistair Johnston has entered the stage like he’s been understudy for years.
Postecoglou is basking in the glow from the rave reviews on the back of Sunday’s Viaplay Cup success at Hampden and Juranovic’s tear jerking barely registered. The Aussie said: “I don’t really care to be honest. Josip was outstanding for us for 18 months. He won trophies and represented his country at a World Cup. Now he has gone on and he is doing fantastically well and I couldn’t be happier for him. We continue on our journey now. The rest of it is just a soap opera for the masses.
