John Hartson: Steve Clarke must build Scotland team around the Celtic players
WHATEVER happens with regards to who manages Celtic next season, we now know it won’t be Steve Clarke.

EVERYONE knows where I stand in terms of the Celtic job, and that I support Neil Lennon to get the position. For me, the Rangers defeat on Sunday doesn’t alter that, but if he doesn’t get the job, that is entirely Celtic’s decision and that’s fair enough.
HOW on earth referee Kevin Clancy saw the incident between Jon Flanagan and Scott Brown and decided that it merited just a yellow card is beyond me. It’s just bewildering.
RANGERS thoroughly deserved to beat Celtic on Sunday, and I really feel that Celtic’s minds were elsewhere. Yes, the cup final is more important, but you can never go into an Old Firm game with that kind of attitude or level of application.
I meet fans all the time, and they are still very angry and very disappointed over the way Brendan Rodgers left the club.
What was Allan McGregor doing on Sunday against Hibernian? He must have been taking karate lessons the amount of times he’s kicked out this season now.
I’VE nailed my colours to the mast in terms of who I would like to be the next Celtic manager. It would make sense to me to stick with the momentum and good work that Neil Lennon has been doing.
KIERAN Tierney is such a huge player for Celtic, the main man really, so I understand that they will be desperate to get him onto the pitch whenever they can.
FAIR play to Mikael Lustig, who has fought his way back into the Celtic reckoning since Neil Lennon’s arrival to make the right-back spot his own.
CELTIC are on course for another historic treble, and in terms of how the trophy cabinet is on course to be stocked at the end of the season, everything is rosy. But there is no doubt there are growing murmurings of discontent among the supporters.
