For his next trick, Martin O'Neill proposes to make a league and cup double appear right out of thin air. It first appeared at the end of October when, after successive domestic defeats to Dundee and Hearts, Brendan Rodgers resigned. With a swish of his wand, O'Neill swapped coffee shops on London's King's Road for six wins in a row domestically, including making Rangers disappear from the League Cup at the semi-final stage.
Former Celtic midfielder Roy Keane has hailed Martin O'Neill for driving the club from "disarray" to a dramatic title success this season. When the Northern Irishman returned in January for his second interim spell following a disastrous six league games under Wilfried Nancy, the club were six points behind leaders Hearts.
It should be Martin O'Neill's decision whether he stays on as Celtic manager, according to the club's former midfielder Paul Lambert. O'Neill masterminded Celtic's dramatic title triumph - his fourth with the club, 22 years on from his third. The 74-year-old said after the final-day win over Hearts that there had been no talks regarding his future, but Lambert believes it would be "great" for the club if O'Neill were to stay on.
Celtic interim manager Martin O'Neill says there has been "a lot of hyperbole" surrounding the scenes following the club's Premiership title win on Saturday. O'Neill's side scored two late goals to snatch the league from Hearts, after which Celtic fans invaded the Parkhead pitch. Hearts players left the stadium immediately while still in their kits due to what the Tynecastle club say was a "menacing and threatening atmosphere inside the stadium".
Martin O'Neill ultimately overcame his concerns that Celtic could not make up their points deficit to Hearts by winning the Scottish Premiership. Celtic trailed leaders Hearts by a point before Saturday's meeting of the two sides in Glasgow and won with two late goals to finish as champions. It was the club's fifth league title in a row and a fourth for O'Neill as Celtic manager.
