Could Hearts Be Martin O’Neill’s Final Game? Celtic Cannot Afford Another Defeat

Read Celtic argues that Sunday's Scottish Premiership clash against Hearts could decide Martin O’Neill’s managerial future at Celtic Park. With Celtic having suffered several recent defeats, including a 4-1 Europa League loss to Benfica, writer Aodhán Ó Conchobhair claims that suffering a fifth defeat in six matches would make O'Neill's position increasingly difficult to defend.

The piece highlights growing pressure on Celtic's leadership following additional losses to LASK, Ferencváros, and rivals Rangers in both the league and cup. The writer notes that while changing managers does not solve recruitment issues, O'Neill must secure an immediate response to prevent the board from considering a change.
