Finally, just five months too late.
Sorry, it has had to come to this, I've no doubt Lenny loves the club but it all went very badly wrong in the end and he should have been gone months ago. The board are responsible there.
Hope he takes a break and gets his head right, and enjoys being a club legend again.

Says a lot about our board that it looks like they waited for Lennon to be forced into resigning rather than sacking him, they knew he was done months ago but stuck with it to save money
Whoever comes in next needs to be top-notch. The club is on a serious slide and needs to bounce back strongly.

I hope they show ambition and at least approach good managers that are or will be available in the summer. Nothing to lose by at least approaching some top managers, after all Celtic are a massive club, but if I was putting money on it I'd back Steve Clarke to get it after the Euros
Talk of AVB or Rafa is a bit over the top. I would love to see either of them take over but I can't see it happening.
Clarke would be a good result imo, knows the league inside out, knows the Scottish players inside out obviously and did very well at Killie. I think he'd be a good fit. Rafa would be great, but I just can't see him being attracted to the role.
Hopefully not - Kennedy, Keane, Strachan or Lampard.

I think Clarke is a good manager and under normal circumstances would be a good pick but I'd worry he's not the right man for the rebuild they're facing into this summer.
It looks like they're in the process of hiring a director of football so that may help but I think it will be a tough sell for season ticket holders.
In recent history Celtic pushed the boat out twice when hiring managers, Martin O'Neill and Brendan Rodgers and both times it paid dividends with Champions League football and very successful teams. This is where they should be looking again.
