Celtic boss Gordon Strachan admits the death of Tommy Burns prevented him from celebrating the dramatic Clydesdale Bank Premier League title triumph. Speaking in a video presentation at Friday's annual general meeting, Strachan said he was still numb after the death of coach Tommy Burns just days before.

He admitted: "It was my most difficult period in football dealing with the loss of someone that close.

"We had to deal with it and with the games coming fast and furious it helped in a way.

"I didn't think anyone would deal with it properly. There was a numb feeling at the time because of what happened the week previously.

"I enjoyed watching the players celebrating but couldn't get my mind around the whole day.

"I haven't really celebrated yet, my head was still numb from the previous week."
