I've had to take a lot of stick down the years but the one thing that really got to me was when someone questioned my integrity. It's the one thing that really grates with you.
Gordon StrachanPeople talk about footballers and they get a bad press when not all of them deserve it.
Gordon StrachanIt took me 35 years of being involved at a decent level of football to become manager at a great club like Celtic.
Gordon StrachanThe reality, ... is that I need to win games of football. That's where the pressure and the sleepless nights come from. There's a fantasy pressure with this job but none of that matters. I need to make this team into a good unit, need to take it forward, give it a change of pace, need to get it younger and to use the experience of the lads we've got here. I need Lennon and Sutton and people like that to go and show how you handle being a Celtic player.
