    Has Favre actually expressed interest in the job?

    Absolutely, some wee Limey * with a massively overblown reputation who shat the bed the last time he ventured further north than Watford......

    I’m as * off as anyone about this.

    But I find some of the comments about him pretty unfair. Has he done enough to earn the Celtic job? Doesn’t look like it. But he’s evidently not some mug.

    Unbelievable how uninspiring it is, though.

    Not panicking yet, have a feeling the media are just using the bookie odds as their source.

    Guess we'll find out by Monday.

    I personally feel you won’t be far away with this, everything apart from appointing JK though of course.

    Why is it unfair ? You can't acknowledge he doesn't deserve the job but say ah give him a bash anyway. I get he has done nothing to cause the circumstance he will find himself in but it's about the bigger picture these * in the boardroom need hunted

    He could be about to take a job in which he probably wasn't even considered as second or even third choice for let alone first choice.

    He'll be working under strict conditions with little or no budget and have his coaching staff picked for him.

    I'd say he's as big a mug as you can get tbh.

    By having a quick read of his managerial history it’s clear he’s got something about him. Whether he can do it at Celtic is another thing.

    Set a record for the longest unbeaten streak in Australian sporting history. By all accounts did very well with the national team. Won Yokohama their first league title in 15 years. All while playing a good brand of football.

    I don’t want him as our manager. But some of the comments I’ve seen from people going on as if he’s some dud seem pretty harsh when you actually read about him, plus when you hear what Jackson Irvine is saying.

    Nothing he's achieved is above what Callum Davidson did in one season compared to his 25 years of management

    * all other than take Australia to the World Cup with their absolute cake-walk of a qualification.

    55 years old, mucking about the Japanese League and we're eyeing him for the most important rebuild in our history :99::99:

    Puzzled by this. Never managed in Europe before apart from a short spell in the Greek lower leagues, simply went to our City Group pals and got a name.

    Agreed - my fear is also that the signing "policy" will be to bring in cheap "prospects" from Australia and South East Asia to develop and sell on at a profit - the Lawwell legacy lives on.
