Joe Hart: Celtic's retiring ex-Man City keeper on final game
“I feel a meteor is going to hit my house in the coming weeks because everything has just been unbelievable."At Hampden on Saturday, the former England goalkeeper lifted a seventh trophy in Scotland, in addition to his seven south of the border, to bow out where he's spent the majority of his career. The top.
The ear-to-ear grin as he savoured every second in the sun after Celtic's 1-0 win over Rangers would suggest he's at peace with his decision.Anyone unfamiliar with Hart might be forgiven for thinking he was retiring with his boyhood club, given the emotional scenes of the past few weeks. Hart's ability to 'get it' has captured the hearts of the Celtic fanbase, while they seem to have carved out a place in his.
“I’m truly blessed to walk out with a big smile on my face. It wasn’t like that at one point so I am gonna take my win and run."I wanted to take the pressure away from the manager and do the best for the club, because it’s about the club being successful and the people being happy.That sort of self-deprecative charm unveiled a side to Hart few were aware of when he joined the club three years ago.
