Celtic fans not shedding any tears

The announcement that Roy Keane would not ‘pursue talks’ with Celtic divided Glasgow last night in much the same way blue and green-and-white shirts do.

On one hand, a majority of Celtic fans appeared nonplussed by the snub from a player who made just 13 appearances for the Hoops, but many ‘insiders’ were shocked by the news, having confidently predicted on Sunday Keane would be in place yesterday.

While most Celtic fans were desperately looking for reasons to be convinced Keane was a good appointment, it appears the Corkman wasn’t convinced it was the right job for him either.
