Dalglish hails magnificent Martin

Kenny Dalglish hailed Martin O’Neill as “a magnificent servant” to Celtic after the Irishman confirmed he would bring his five-year spell at the club to an end after Saturday’s Tennent’s Scottish Cup final.

Gordon Strachan will take over the Celtic hotseat on June 1 after O’Neill announced he would be stepping down to spend more time with his wife Geraldine, who is battling a serious illness.
