I can’t take Martin O’Neill seriously as Celtic manager and resignation offer would reveal board’s priorities – Hugh Keevins

Hugh Keevins argues that Martin O'Neill should consider offering his resignation as Celtic manager following a heavy Europa League defeat against Benfica in Lisbon. The columnist writes that O'Neill made a severe misjudgement by returning to the club after previously securing a domestic Double, alleging that the veteran manager now exhibits consistent errors in team selection and game management amid a broader club decline.

Keevins states that Celtic faces deepening turmoil under principal shareholder Dermot Desmond, highlighting European struggles, domestic cup elimination by Rangers, and fan unrest. Ahead of a league clash with Hearts, Keevins contends that the squad suffers from limited depth and warns of mounting toxicity among supporters who plan boycotts over ticket prices and board statements.
