I think Martin O'Neill has earned the right.

I think that he is a standout candidate.

My only worry is how it got to that.

After the Wilfred Nancy saga, Martin O'Neill came in, put out a few fires, done well.

Celtic boards have had five or six months, maybe just a little bit less, to find somebody, to appoint somebody and...

Like we said, behind the closed doors, they've came with a shortlist of an ex-Celtic striker and an ex-Celtic manager.

Now, I don't think that it's really shown them up in the best of light.

I think the Celtic fans, the fact that Robbie Keane was in the final two, regardless of what your take on politics or whatever...

were really really angry and I think this shows that they've actually listened but the problem is there's a big disconnect between the board and the fans at the moment and now the board haven't set themselves up in a good light because the shortlist they've ended up in

Yeah, I think it's incredible how close we're getting to it and how excited everybody is.

Now, there's a few question marks, obviously, on what the start on 11 is going to be.

And I think the Scotland fans, after Steve Clarke's just signed a new deal, I think they want Scotland to go out and attack.

And we know that Steve Clarke's probably not the most attacking manager.

He's more probably...

defensive which is fine he's done well got us to the tournaments but I think now with the options with Finlay Curtis, Ben Doak even Ross Stewart who can play in the wing who's a really talented footballer I think the fans really want us to go and go head on with teams and I get we're probably not going to do that with Brazil but the Scotland fans would fancy their chances against Morocco and for sure Haiti so it'll be an interesting week leading up and

All the speculation, all the team kind of, the team should probably pick itself, but it'll be interesting to see where they go.

I think the fact that he's doing the year speaks a lot about his drive and his motivation.

I think he's probably the right candidate at the moment.

I think having Maloney and Mark Fotheringham is big.

Maloney's obviously probably a Celtic legend, if not a big figure in the kind of recent past.
