Now we are leading up to cup final I predict that come Friday the big leak will come out and new manager/ DOF will be named? To try put everyone off at Celtic from winning the cup. Just my opinion.

Said this earlier on rumour page rich wouldn't surprise me mate.

The media can only announce the new manager or DOF's name if it's leaked by someone from within the club. Why would anyone from Celtic want to put Celtic off winning the treble?

I would not be surprised. I have been checking out the odds for the job Lennon has never outside the top 4 names tipped for the job with Rafa there too could it be possible we could actually get Rafa? For me I think it’s down to either Lennon or Rafa. What do use guys think Eds?

There is always a 'story' before a big game and there will be some sort of attempted distraction/ scandal printed before Friday.

Ritch T there’s no chance Rafa Benitez is coming to Celtic mate! I see Uve mentioned it a few times on here but please spare urself the disappointment mate. rafa Mourinho and I seen Sutton mentioned Allegri from Juve today! This is Scotland we’re in lads and these guys will not come here! One we can’t afford there wage,2 we couldn’t afford there transfer budgets and 3 our league is mediocre at best! Not having a go at all just let’s get a bit of realism eh!

Originally I had guessed that Lennon would be announced this week after the league was wrapped up. Not something I particularly wanted, but with talk of David Moyes I'd have Lenny in a heartbeat over him.

So if not a Rafa or JM where do we really start to look at Moyes or give the job to Lennon. I might be living in coo coo land there is nothing wrong with trying to do better showing ambition like we did with Rodgers I would like to think that the board may have that same ambition but we will see?

It's not whether the board show ambition. Its whether these names want to come to us. Sutton has said we approached JM but it ain't going to happen. I would have preferred Clarke over Lennon personally, but prefer both to Moyes. I wouldn't mind a bilic, Houghton or bielsa. I think being realistic bielsa is my preferred choice.

Anno bielsa done well elsewhere but his age and the language us he's just failed to get Leeds even into the play offs so not sure the of the clamour for this guy.

Lennon has been in job before, won 3 leagues with zero competition, failed big time in cup competitions, football was dire and he failed to really inspire the fans or the team.
I can’t see how he will be any better now plus we have much stronger competition from across the city.
He’s had his day, time for different direction.
Moyes? He’s had years of managing in a high quality competitive league at a level Lennon will never be offered.

If forced to choose between the two it would be moyes for me.

You obviously haven't really thought this through have you?

If that information was leaked, it would need to be leaked from within the club. So someone in the club would do this to try and disrupt the cup final preparations.

I cannot believe that some people would be such avid conspiracy theorists that they would even suggest this.

I think someone of the calibre of AVB or Rafa could be tempted by the lure of having a chance to get big European clubs' attention again by taking us on a run in Europa or get some results in Champs League like Strachan or Lennon did before the game went totally mad financially.

The safety of us having a low interest in domestic cups next year and the budget we fans feel the board should invest to secure the 10 might be a good carrot.

One of these guys would be guaranteed a couple of medals plus a choice for their next big job. I might be too optimistic but it's an attractive job for managers who can't get an EPL top 6 gig.
