Celtic’s Wilfried Nancy catastrophe is another indicator of a club embroiled in turmoil

Even the return of Martin O’Neill is unlikely to placate supporters frustrated by poor performances, a lack of investment, and chaos in the boardroom.

Any club confirming the end of an error after eight games owes an apology to its supporters. In Celtic’s case, even the admission of an all-time blunder in hiring Wilfried Nancy would be unlikely to placate the masses.

Remorse has not been forthcoming anyway. As Martin O’Neill’s return as the Celtic manager was confirmed, office bearers took it in turn to express disappointment at the Nancy affair. Which was very good of them.
