We asked Celtic fans at Hampden Park: "Should Martin O'Neill stay on as Celtic manager?" The biggest question in Scottish football, debated as O'Neill lifts the Scottish Cup at Hampden — and then immediately tells us he's thinking the club needs "somebody younger."
The case for KEEP O'Neill: 80-odd percent win ratio across two Celtic spells. He's just won the Scottish Cup. Champions League pedigree. The supporters love him. The interim has become the man holding the trophy.
The case for GO YOUNGER: O'Neill himself said it post-match — "the football club to go forward properly would probably be looking at somebody younger." Add the Robbie Keane and Roberto Martinez names already in the frame, plus the Shaun Maloney link to Martinez.
The case for ASK HIM TO STAY one more year: A double already in the cabinet. One more year of stability while Celtic find the long-term answer.
The Football Show panel weigh in on the question of the summer — what's your call?
🟢 KEEP — one more year
🔴 GO YOUNGER — as O'Neill himself says
⚖️ CONDITIONAL — only if he wants to stay
