Ange Postecoglou says that he felt the backing of the Celtic support from his first day in charge of the club.
The Australian spent quarantine in London trying to grasp the full extent of the rebuild that he had signed up for.
While starting the rebuild he made use of Ryan Christie and Odsonne Edouard despite knowing that they would be gone at the end of the transfer window.
For friendlies against Preston and West Ham there were less than 10,000 fans inside Celtic Park but as the crowds grew so did the side and style that Postecoglou was putting together game by game.
‘The fans were unbelievable from pretty much day one.’ ? @CelticFC boss Ange Postecoglou is absolutely loving the support he has received in Scotland ?

Whatever concerns fans had were swept away in the autumn as Kyogo Furuhashi and Jota became the new heroes, in December the Japanese striker turned the League Cup Final Celtic’s way.
In spring time it would be hard to find a dissenting voice, if the hoops continue their winning run through until the end of May he will have achieved legendary status in less than 12 months.
