The curious significant of 1 June
There’s something I’ve never been able to figure out for the last nine years. When Gordon Strachan was announced as Celtic manager, on 1st June 2014, he apologised to the media for bumping their calls the previous week, as he was due to takeover on that date, and the announcement was embargoed until then.
No idea why the news was embargoed, but it was. Tomorrow’s the 1st June. If the same rules hold true now as when Gordon Strachan was appointed, there was little chance of an appointment in late May.
