Gordon Strachan leaves Celtic after four years in charge.

Strachan and Celtic part ways



Celtic manager Gordon Strachan has quit following the team's failure to clinch a fourth successive title. The club announced on their website that Strachan ? who won three titles and three domestic cups in his four years in charge ? had decided to step down. Strachan said: "I have enjoyed my time immensely at Celtic and clearly I will be sad to leave this great club." The former Coventry City manager refused to discuss his future immediately after their final Clydesdale Bank Premier League game of the season, a 0-0 draw with Hearts. But his departure is no surprise after he failed to gain total support from a number of Celtic fans despite his success at home and in Europe, where he twice led Celtic into the last 16 of the Champions League. Strachan added: "As I have said before, Celtic is a special club, with special supporters. "There is no club like it and it has been an absolute honour and privilege to be the club's manager for the past four years. "We have done all we can to bring success to the club and we were delighted to deliver three SPL titles, other domestic silverware, as well as making some great progress in Europe. "It is just disappointing that we did not manage the fourth championship. "However, the players can hold their heads high in terms of what they have done for the club in recent years. "I would like to thank the Celtic board for all the support they have given me during the past four years, in particular Dermot Desmond, John Reid, Peter Lawwell and former chairman Brian Quinn ? I could not have asked for any more support. "I thank all the players I have worked with at the club and, of course, my backroom team for the backing and assistance which they have given me. "I thank the fans too for the tremendous support which they have given both myself and the players. I wish Celtic and our supporters nothing but success for the future." Strachan's success came despite having a much smaller transfer budget and wage bill than was afforded to predecessor Martin O'Neill. The Parkhead chief executive Peter Lawwell paid tribute to the former Southampton boss, who has been linked with the vacant Sunderland post. Lawwell said: "Gordon has given everything to the club and worked tirelessly to bring success to Celtic. "He has achieved so much at both domestic and European levels. "It has been a pleasure to work closely with Gordon and he leaves the club with all our best wishes. "We thank Gordon for his commitment and achievements at the club and we also thank our fans for backing us all the way this season. "Our fans know how to support their club and we will be doing all we can to once again bring back the title to Celtic Park, something which our support deserves." *PA Sport

Four motivational quotes from Alicia's Dubai talk

“The only thing we need is to know that we have faith. Faith and hope in our own dreams. The belief that, when we keep going we’re going to find our way. That’s all we got.”

“Sometimes we try so hard to keep things inside. We try so hard to pretend it’s not really bothering us. In some ways, that hurts us more. You don’t realise how dishonest you are with yourself sometimes, but I realised that if I spoke it, I could let it go.”

“One good thing is to know you’re not the only one going through it. You’re not the only one trying to find your way, trying to find yourself, trying to find amazing energy, trying to find a light. Show all of yourself. Show every nuance. All of your magic. All of your colours. Be true to that. You can be unafraid.”

“It’s time to stop holding back. It’s time to do it on your terms. It’s time to shine in the most unbelievable way. It’s time to let go of negativity and find your tribe, find those people that lift you up, because everybody else is just in your way.”
