Giving Chris Wilcox some love



So I don't know if this has been posted somewhere else in the site so sorry if this is a duplication. I've just read this article at csnne about Chris Wilcox and I have pretty much grown more in appreciation of the guy. I admit I have been hypercritical of CW and favored Collins over him but I guess I must admit that I was quite wrong about him.

It's been great to see him suit up again and even greater to see him contributing more. It's been easy to forget that he's been hounded by injuries all season long which probably explains a lot of his inconsistent performance and not just mere lack of effort. I personally like that he chose to stick it out with the C's even if they tried trading him. If anyone in this roster in the future ever as much go off about getting disrespected because he was about to traded look no further than CW on how to handle it.

CW and his overall character is what really makes rooting for the C's all more satisfying for me. It seems this team is a collection of people who fight back no matter the adversity. I want to see this culture of "grit and balls" all through future Celtic teams and all future C's are like CW (in attitude) even sans jaw dropping talent.

Anyways enough of my rant and just read the article for yourselves:
