Ange Postecoglou confesses to 'missing' Celtic fans as he shows Scotland loyalty with bold Euro 2024 prophecy

Former Celtic boss Ange Posteocoglou admits he missed the fans in Scotland after leaving for Tottenham last summer.

After leaving Celtic to a Treble in his final season, Postecoglou took his shot at the English Premier League with Spurs - with his all-out attacking style winning many admirers in North London and beyond -despite falling just short of securing Champions League football next season. However, the Australian hasn't forgotten about his time in Scotland - while on punditry duties for ITV gave a glowing report of the national team going into the crucial Euro 2024 clash with Hungary.

Postecoglou boldly backed Steve Clarke's side to earn the win the final group stage game - and all-but secure a place in the knockout stage for the first time in Scotland's history. The Tottenham boss said: "I have to declare I am on the Scotland bandwagon. I followed them for a couple of years when I was at Celtic, obviously.

"They obviously got blown away that first game. It's always hard that first game of the tournament - it could go either way. The hosts could be nervous but Germany were flying, and that is probably as passive as I have seen the Scottish team in quite a long time. The strength they showed in the second game is their capacity to run, with energy. If they can bring that they can cause any team problems. They have talked about making history, I think they are a good bet for that tomorrow."

He was then pressed by host Laura Woods on if he missed the Scottish fans following his time at Celtic Park after the scenes of the Tartan Army partying in Germany, the Australian admitted: 'I do. That is part of the reason I am on the bandwagon!

"When the national team plays they are great - and the good thing is that since Steve Clarke has taken over the team represents them really well. It is a credit to them, and the will play a big part tomorrow."
