Celtic fans' reactions makes Double Treble even sweeter, says Rodgers
Brendan Rodgers admits seeing the look of joy on the jubilant Celtic faithful made his side's double treble triumph all the sweeter.
The Hoops boss followed up the Invincibles feat of his debut Parkhead season with a second successive clean sweep as the Hoops became the first Scottish side to win back-to-back trebles.
And while that achievement meant much to the Northern Irishman, he took more satisfaction from seeing the club's supporters lap up their latest record-breaking campaign.
Around 15,000 supporters spilled onto the streets of Glasgow's east end in the hours after their 2-0 William Hill Scottish Cup final win as the Celtic squad embarked on an open top bus parade to show off this season's haul.
And it is a day that will live with Rodgers forever.
"Last year felt like a dream, winning the treble in my first season - and this season was just remarkable really and historical,'' he told the Celtic View.
"For me, it's seeing the happiness of everyone else. People ask what it means to me but I grew up as a Celtic supporter and seeing what it means to people gives me the joy - seeing children, women and men, granddads and grandparents, all smiling and being so happy and being on the streets.
"That gives me the joy, as does the happiness of the players, knowing they've achieved something and added something more to their profile, and that's ultimately what I'm here to do.
"It was a really special day for everyone. It was a great day for Celtic. You think of the whole history of this great football nation, players and managers, and to be the first team to do it back-to-back is a phenomenal achievement.
"My thoughts are more with the supporters, the players, all the staff and the board that brought me in a couple of years ago. I'm so happy for them that they can really enjoy this.
"It's for the supporters. We can be nothing but inspired by the Celtic support and their commitment to us - wherever we go, they're always there. To give them a day like that, and overall a moment in history, gives me the real satisfaction.
"This is something we'll never forget. Saturday, May 19, 2018, was the day Celtic created football history in Scotland.
"I'm very proud and privileged to be the manager here at this time and now we'll have a few weeks rest to go and enjoy it.'
