David Martindale heaped praise on the Irishman and recalled their first meeting at Celtic Park five years ago
Livingston boss David Martindale has recalled his first meeting with Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers - and heaped praise on the Irishman’s character and humility.
He said: “My first game, it had been all over the papers about Davie Martindale being in prison when Livingston were back in the Premiership. We go to Parkhead and they had won the league the previous season so they had the unveiling of the flag. “Kenny Miller was playing at that point so he was in the changing room and so I was sitting with Brendan and he was brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I’ll never forget him giving me that time.”
