@CelticIg Both these points of view can be true at the same time.
If it was a choice between O'Neill & Keane,then most would choose O'Neill
The board had 6 months to look for candidates for the job,then came up with just O'Neill & Keane.
Surely you must agree they should have done better?
@ScottBradleyX O'Neill will NEVER ruin his Celtic legacy!He started the dominance that we've enjoyed over the last 26years.Broke Rangers' strange hold,brought us titles, trebles, went toe to toe with the best teams in the world.Then came back at 74 & broke the rest of scottish football hearts
@Maedasteel@MillerLove1877@Record_Sport@ScottBurns75 Ye but his barca career started the exact same way Doaks celtic career started. Token minutes.Doaks would have been got regular game time at celtic as well if he had stayed but was never going at Liverpool and hasn't happened since.
Pathways had nothing to do with his move
@Maedasteel@MillerLove1877@Record_Sport@ScottBurns75 You keep saying token minutes like he should have been in the team before he was??
Doak would have played over 100 games by now if he stayed with us and stayed fit.
The point is that these players are not leaving for pathways to the first team.
It is money.
Martin O'Neill has agreed to become Celtic's manager on a permanent basis, following talks with Dermot Desmond in London.
The 74-year-old will sign a one-year contract, with the option of a further year.

@Maedasteel@MillerLove1877@Record_Sport@ScottBurns75 What is there to disagree with.
It is a fact that they could not play him any earlier. It is a fact that he was told he was part of the 1st team plans for the next season.He jumped straight from the youths to first team set up without B-team appearances.
He even spoke about it
@Maedasteel@MillerLove1877@Record_Sport@ScottBurns75 We literally could not play him any sooner. The boy was told he was part of first team plans for the next season.
Was nothing to do with path way to first team.
@MillerLove1877@Maedasteel@Record_Sport@ScottBurns75 Doak was training with the 1st team at 15, part of the squad and playing a month after his 16th birthday, he became our second youngest player.
They couldn't play him any sooner.
