McCluskey welcomes Mowbray appointment

Wed, 17 Jun 17:44:36 2009

Former Celtic star George McCluskey believes Tony Mowbray's arrival has given everyone associated with the club a much-needed boost after missing out on the Clydesdale Bank Premier League title.

But he admits the new Hoops boss has a tough act to follow, with his predecessor Gordon Strachan delivering three championships in four years in the east end of Glasgow.

"I was delighted that Tony got the job," said McCluskey, who played for the Hoops between 1975 and 1983. "He is one of the most imaginative coaches. The fans were delighted and he got a great reception at Celtic Park."

He added: "I'm sure he has given everybody at the football club a lift. The reception he got was amazing.

"It's a big, big lift for the football club after being down for the last few weeks."
