So which PL club will he be going to? Parted company with Celtic and it won't be without a team lined up. Actually did really well for Celtic, and will probably bring a player or two whenever he goes. Virgil Van Dijk looks a player.

Bit surprised by this, must have something lined up like you say, or Celtic have caught wind of someone becoming available for them. There is also the possibility he has demanded a big pay rise or he will walk and they called his bluff.

They wouldn't get rid of him because someone else was available, as he's doing a really good job to be fair.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him at Norwich
Championship is a big step up though

WBA are without a manager so that's my guess.

For level of opposition, I agree. But I couldn't see a championship team beating Barca or rivaling Milan etc.

I doubt he'd leave a guaranteed seat at Celtic to go to the championship. And if I was West Brom I'd rather him than Sherwood. But I may be wrong

I'd bet, as per his agents comments, he doesn't have a club to go to. He has media commitments this Summer which he'll probably now extend. For me he would be stupid to go to Norwich in a notoriously difficult league to get out of.
Far as his time as Celtic manager goes, on the field he's been a success whilst having to deal with; being assaulted in the dugout, death threats, nail bombs in the post and everything else that goes with living in this backward little Country.
I'd take Moyes in a heartbeat for what it's worth, Henrik looks more and more likely with every passing hour though.

Its safe to say whoever becomes manager will be guaranteed the league title.
Henrik would get a lot of respect because of his history but he doesnt seem the type who you would expect to shout at his players, or at all for the matter.

The Board want; the League, Champions League qualification and a cup every season.
The fans want; The domestic Treble and the Champions League, without losing a goal never mind a game.
It is, easily, the hardest job in Britain. The club's standing in Europe and the fans perception of that standing are wider apart in reality than any other club. We earn less in revenue than Championship clubs yet are expected to beat Barcelona. It doesn't add up.

Tbh you could be the manager of Celtic and win titles.
What have they done in the cups with Lennon?

Rightly so Lennon.
I'm surprise he lasted this long with the shite he has had to put up with due to that job.
Pretty sure he could do a job in the championship and relax a bit.

2 of the 4 Scottish Cups he entered?
The League Cup in Scotland means less than it does in England, only good as part of a Treble.

nothing to do with me the press have been linking him with Norwich since they fired hughton! he'd be a risk for a PL team though IMO, has the experience of big games but does he have the experience of a constant higher level

The man didn't help himself at times. Straight after nail bomb threats (iirc, there were so many incidents), he insights the Rangers fans It was disgusting what he and his young family had to put up with though. I admire him for the massive ginger balls he has.

Rangers supporters hold themselves in such a high regard to think that anything they do is going to affect Celtic at the moment,
Saw some bitching and moaning on The RFC fan page on facebook, supporters gurning at the quality of players they have, and they should have this player/that player.
I'm not usually one to comment on any of the bullshit they spout, but I had to.
I reminded them they are playing a load of plumbers and joiners, not contesting European glory. the players they have/had won the bottom division and league 1 quite convincingly, so I see no grounds for them to complain.
Anyway, Moyes for the celtic job, failing that you can have Derek Adams
