Has to be this week its announced surely

I still think Dom McKay was specifically brought in earlier than initially scheduled to deliver Eddie Howe. This is McKay’s first opportunity to make a positive impression on the fans and Desmond won’t let him down.

I can understand why some Celtic fans are getting impatient though Tbf to them.

If it isn’t Howe, whoever it is will obviously be second choice.

Celtic’s board have to deliver Howe. They’ve backed themselves into this corner by waiting so long for him and publicly briefing that he’s the choice. They basically just gave up their leverage straight away.

Surely McKay can’t fail in his first project in the Peter Lawell role ? I can’t see that happening tbh.

Many bookies no longer taking bets so now seems a matter of when and not if Eddie Howe is announced. Daily Mail reporting it’s done.

They have to? What will happen if they don't? Will Celtic close down?

I don't really see how it matters if a club gets first, second, third choice. There are hundreds of coaches who could succeed at Celtic. What matters is the system in place to support whoever gets the job succeed once in it. I'm not sure Celtic have that.

Aye, I seen it suggested on TalkSport (I know) that the announcement has only been delayed due to Bournemouth's involvement in the Championship play-offs as Howe would like to pull together his coaching team from them but it's dependant on whether they get promoted or not.

Yeah which is pretty plausible. He will want to build a team he trusts and won’t want to interfere with Bournemouth’s chances of getting through the Playoffs.

I know Tindall won’t be part of the team however interested to see if Richard Hughes will. Rumoured Mark Burchill will be coming in as a coach also

Oh my!

So, what did you mean then? Or were you just using an overly-dramatic meaningless phrase?

Too much Kenny McIntyre for you, imo.

Is this the same guy who lost the plot about people making predictions because we can't tell the future?

Everyone must be 100% sure and literal with everything they say, internet is serious business. 

[BigDoddyKane]

Howe announced on Monday im thinking

 

[BigDoddyKane]

So Bournemouth at least have a game next Saturday 22nd, If it is Howe is it looking like he wont be announced until they are knocked out or win the playoffs?

Hodgson resigns fromPalace. I guess it'll be apparent quite soon whether the Palace/EPL stuff has any substance. 

[kingjoey]

Howe announced as Palace Manager would be fairly amusing.

I wouldn’t think it likely as the indication all season is that Hodgson was retiring.

Never say never however, Mojo taught us that

Howe won’t get a job in the EPL at the moment.

I don’t think it’s likely either, but it would be funny.

It’s going to be Steve Clarke lads.

Resigns? Palace did not offer him a new contract and forced him out. The papers are now saying that Lampard is in discussions with Palace to succeed Hodgson. 

Eddie Howe was a failure at Burnley and the pressure would be too great at Porkheid. It's very possible that he'll bottle a straight fight with Gerrard.
