It appears there are very tight lips at Celtic Park ahead of what will be the most important decision the club has made in quite some time.

The appointment of Celtic’s next full time manager is absolutely pivotal as whoever takes over will likely be the man tasked with getting us to the ten.

If Celtic are sounding people out and working through their options at the moment, one thing is clear, the mainstream media know absolutely nothing.

Case and point, bookies have again installed Roberto Martinez as the second favourite after ‘reports’ overnight. This off the heels of yesterday’s Andres Villas Boas stories yesterday, and the Marco Rose link that turned out to be nothing more than speculation.

The reason it’s not getting out because it’s one man who will make the decision and it will be Peter Lawwell’s job to secure his target. Notoriously media shy Dermot Desmond is the man who will make the biggest call of his Celtic tenure as majority shareholder and he’s telling the press absolutely nothing.
