The fruitcakes think he’s getting announced next week.With both Chelsea and Arsenal, at least, positions far from secure, I'm sure he'll wait and see first.
That's before you consider continental possibilities.
It’s a done deal according to them

Ross was probably favourite till getting done yesterday by St J. Cheap option and they have history of taking Hibs managers, all the way back to Stein.Not a chance. He’ll get a good EPL job within the next 6 months.
They’ll scapegoat Lennon for the failure of this season and bring in someone else on the cheap. Probably Jack Ross
They are probably faced with a choice if paying for someone decent or watching season ticket sales go down the toilet. Remember it's likely at least part of next season will be bcd.Very decent manager. ... Going to septic. No chance .
Firstly. No way they paying circa £5 mill a year
2 They don't have millions to give him to spend
3. He will get much better offers Europe wide
4 it's. Septic
5. He's not daft
I did and I,'ll ask you again what money.all you have put down is if,s and puts.desmond is more interested in taking money out of that club .not putting it in. All he is interested is making money .not losing it.when was the last time he put money into Celtic.Read my post.
Good.The fruitcakes think he’s getting announced next week.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle and possibly Citeeh.How many epl jobs will be availiable within the next 6 months?
The only way they could is if DD is dipping his hand very deep in his pocket. I wouldnt rule that out after the way he reacted to the SC semi final defeat a few years back. However, I think this more about whether Benitez would want to go to the piggery or not. Like you say, nothings impossible, but I think he could easily find a better gig in a bigger league than the mentally challengeds. He doesnt strike me as a 'project' manager, and although he is a bit of a mercenary, I think the transfer budget on offer would make him baulk. He would be a coup for them no question. However, it would take a miracle to win them the title this season, and next year he'd be starting from scratch. So unless he's getting a long term deal (which I really don't see happening) I dont think we should be overly concerned.Although anything is possible, do they really have the money required to appease a manager used to spending large amounts of money on transfers? And then you have to take into account the salaries of him and his coaching staff.

I put this down to a lazy piece of journalism that's pure speculation. The journalist in question has probably penned the story based on the fact he's just left China and the bookie's have shortened the odds on him getting the job.
I think he’ll underestimate how bad they are off the park, no point denying that he isn’t a good manager however.
You’re right, he’s got a pedigree and ability as a manger. Our own manager cites him as a great influence on him, so to read some downplaying him is a bit ridiculous. The fact of the matter is Celtic are about to go on a downsize, unless Desmond pumps millions in, which he’s not done in many years and quite the opposite in taking out then they are downsizing. Where are they going to get Rafa’s wages and £50m for him to spend. Just not happening.Just to plays devils advocate here, I remember people doing this routine with Rodgers too, the infamous GioLoyal even proclaimed Warburton would ensure he disappeared back down south with his tail between his legs.
Regardless of Benitez’s stint in China he is a top manager and there’s no sense in trying to do mental gymnastics to convince ourselves otherwise. I don’t think he’s going to end up at the piggery though, having a reputation like his means he’ll get more lucrative offers.
This, the names they thought they were getting before Lennon was signed in the showers was hilariousLawell classic rope a dope on the idiot fans.
Gets a story like this leaked out in the press.
They all get excited, pipe down for a while and get off his back, shift some season tickets then Rafa goes somewhere else and he announces Kennedy or Malky or someone similar.
Those idiots will have been taken for a ride again.
This. I barely take notice of FF posts about our own players and managers. The football opinions on here are dubious as hell, my own included. When it comes to our rivals the posts on here are even worse. That's not a dig at our support or FF. When it comes to a rival team don't expect much sense from a bunch of supporters.Just to plays devils advocate here, I remember people doing this routine with Rodgers too, the infamous GioLoyal even proclaimed Warburton would ensure he disappeared back down south with his tail between his legs.

Stadio Olimpico or Stade de Nonce???Roma & Napoli rumoured to be in for Rafa too
Some on here seem to be going to ridiculous lengths to try and prove otherwise.He is a superb manager. Let’s not pretend he isn’t I can see him go back to Newcastle.
Fair point! i was taking a few things into consideration tho that was just the most recent thing in ma head! With thier wage bill and no substantial income for best part of a yr so far id imagine they've burned through serious amounts of cash the players they have tied to long term contracts who are shite etc I can't see them having enough to pay off lennon, pay benitez , his backroom team, pay off the dross and rebuild a team that benitez would want! just my opinion ive no idea but I'm certain there will be far more tempting offers for him elsewhereI don’t see the connection between furlough & recruitment in different areas of the business.
Arsenal borrowed £100m from The Treadury, then paid £20m to get Ozil to leave.
ps I want them to go for a Jack Ross type manager, I just don’t think that will sell s/t’s.
Really can't see it aside from the fact he is too big a manager for them it would be a bit disrespectful to Gerrard.
Bring it on if true, very much doubt it is though, they are burning cash already without getting a 6 million per year manager and bankrolling transfers to appease him.
