Jim Goodwin discussed his connection to Celtic past and present this afternoon, having come through the Celtic youth academy.
Goodwin, who spent five years at Celtic, making only one first-team appearance in 2000 in a 2-0 Hoops win against, coincidentally enough, against Dundee United at Celtic Park, who the Irishman is now in charge of.
Goodwin also revealed what the 0-0 draw at Tannadice this afternoon will mean for him after the game with his friends.
He said: (Daily Record),”There was probably far too many people connected to me in the opposition end, so I’m glad that my phone is not going to be buzzing with people having a pop because they managed to trounce us.”
It was certainly a good result for the Irishman, who also popped up with a 1-1 draw at Ibrox against Rangers in November, showing that he is thriving being back in the Scottish Premiership with Dundee United after a season in the Championship
Goodwin grew up supporting Celtic; however, he has always taken every game against the Hoops very seriously.
With his ability to put a structured tactical approach against Celtic, he has proven to be a manager.
Despite criticism over his time at Aberdeen, he has time and time again bounced back.
