    Strachan's unpoulatrity may have stemmed from those with long memories who saw him as part of an Aberdeen team that was a tough opponent. I think Strachan's dealings in the transfer market were questionable but in fairness Celtic are now debt free.

    It was time for Strachan to go but in fairness he did a decent job with a very average group of players. Won 3 out of 4 league titles, now that is fairly respectable

    He was succesful and I backed him for over 3 years but the football this season was dreadful. It's been getting worse since season 1. I think most managers would have played Naka in central midfield as he does for Japan which could have made all the difference.

    Anyway, excitement now at Celtic Park. I'll look forward to the daily rumour mill.

    Lennon won't even be a contender. Owen Coyle is the bookies favourite which would be understandable if he didn't just get Burnley promoted. I'd say Tony Mowbray is the real favourite. I'd happily take either of those.

    I think Mowbray would be your best option. Excellent manager IMO


    Heard David O'Leary being mentioned too

    Can't see it being Coyle.

    I think your two most likely are McGhee and Mowbray.

    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.

    Both would be decent I'd say.

    I think Mowbray's rural accent makes him sound less clever than he is.

    It seems Owen Coyle is the man.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/foot...ic/8070586.stm

    Bilic would be very exciting appointment but I've been reading about Coyle for the last hour in work and I'd be delighted to get him. I didn't think there was any hope after getting Burnley up.

    Terrible thing to say but a man might be alive today if Celtic had won the league

    http://www.rte.ie/news/2009/0528/mcdaidk.html

    but then again they probably would have gone on a rampage if Rangers had lost. Just an excuse I suspect.

    What do the Celtic fans think about the rumours of Tony Mowbray provided Celtic pay the 2 million? Ex-player and also good experience at Hibs. Looks a good choice.
