If you are wanting to cut it in coaching it is probably best to start off at the top of the tree.
Back in May Charlie Mulgrew the player was suffering relegation with Dundee United, this week the budding coach has been preparing for a Champions League tie against Lazio.
When the action gets underway tomorrow night the former Scotland defender will be the best informed fan in the stadium as Celtic take on the Italian giants.
An invaluable few days learning from one of the best. Massive thanks to Brendan Rodgers and his staff for allowing me to watch them work, in the build up to the Lazio game. Good luck @CelticFC pic.twitter.com/GUHQbO0UIe

At the start of this season Mulgrew took the decision to step down from playing, a career that included two stints at Celtic, working under Gordon Strachan, Neil Lennon and Ronny Deila.
None of those coaches have the profile of Brendan Rodgers with the Irishman happy to help out any aspiring coach having worked his own way through from Reading and Chelsea under-age sides into management at Reading, Watford and Swansea before hitting the big time with Liverpool, Celtic and Leicester.
Mulgrew could probably have found himself a player coach role in Scottish football but has opted for time out to build up his coaching credentials before going in at the sharp end.
I see the VAR officials from the Spurs v Liverpool game have been stood down this week because of their decisions from that game.
Apparently now the conversation between all the officials is to be made public after Liverpool have heard the recording itself.
So if they can do that in the BIG TIME EPL then why not in the SPFL it’s the same set up,is it not.
Or do our officials on the pitch and the SFA have something to hide.
Good Luck, Charlie!

You scored that fabulous opener in the LAST ‘OF’ game EVER when you charged in from the left, nutted the ball into the ground and out of McGregor’s reach.
Fukkin BRILLIANT. We won 3-0 with Kris Commons and Gary Hooper providing the other 2. Our 1st game against Rangers FC was, I think, in 1888? Anyway, we won by 3 goals (5-2)
SO, 1st game vs huns and last game vs huns we won by 3 clear goals.
It’s enough to make your heart go………….
And, BTW, the new huns arnae worth ma time!
