Get ready for some thrilling football news! The Celtic job is up for grabs, and it's sparked an exciting debate among fans and pundits alike. Kieran McKenna, the Ipswich Town manager, has emerged as a top contender for the prestigious role, but there's a twist!

While Ange Postecoglou was initially favored by the bookies, sources close to the former Celtic boss have poured cold water on that idea. But here's where it gets controversial...

Martin O'Neill and Shaun Maloney are currently steering the ship on an interim basis, and O'Neill has revealed some intriguing details. He told talkSPORT's Jim White that he was offered the opportunity on Monday evening, and it came as a complete shock!
