Overview
- Wilfried Nancy was sacked after 33 days, with a 3-1 defeat to Rangers closing a run of six losses in eight matches.
- McGregor told Sky Sports the scale and speed of change were “too much too soon” without a pre-season and with games every three days.
- Nancy abandoned Celtic’s long-used 4-3-3 for his 3-4-3, and reporting says several players were used out of position under the new setup.
- Interim manager Martin O’Neill has overseen a domestic uptick, leaving Celtic six points behind Hearts ahead of Sunday’s league meeting.
- Former striker Louis Saha criticized Celtic’s handling of Nancy, calling a roughly 30-day tenure unfair and “horrible.”
