Steven Pressley has always considered himself to be one of the most unpopular players in all of Scottish football but was still shocked on the day he signed for Celtic when Neil Lennon refused to shake his hand.
And, speaking in the latest episode of our hit new podcast Off the Record, the man who is now in a key development role with English Premier League high-fliers Brentford, also reveals how he’s never been forgiven by Rangers supporting friends for choosing to sign for Celtic.
On the Lennon snub, Pressley said: “On my first day, I got on the bus and was shaking hands with everyone. Neil Lennon refused to shake my hand. He was quite serious - it’s not as if he was playing around with me. I think Neil was one who liked to test you a little bit but we became good team-mates and I really like him.
