There was one comment this season that Ange Postecoglou really took to heart.
Early in his tenure at Ibrox Micky Beale offered that observation, discussing other managers, lucky or not is a No No for the Celtic boss.
Everything was cordial and diplomatic in the five Derby matches between Postecoglou and Beale but clearly the hoops boss was irked, he found some extra motivation from an opponents comment.
After today’s 5-0 win over Aberdeen Postecoglou addressed the fans from the centre of the pitch. His message was very clear.
Because I’m a lucky man ??? pic.twitter.com/SQeRWY2FU0

Following a 2-2 draw at Ibrox in January Celtic won three derbies in three competitions to put them within touching distance of the domestic treble.
Inverness Caley Thistle stand between Postecoglou and the only Scottish trophy to have eluded him to date.
Perhaps at Hampden he will get lucky again.
Lack of class from Beale. They don’t do “Class”.
