I read yesterday that Celtic weren't best pleased because it looked like Howe was backing out because his family didn't want to move that far north (apparently they struggled with moving upto Burnley).

That makes Newcastle unlikely as well.

He is awaiting for us to come in for him, though the comments about Brighton would make sense as well (if he has been contacted quietly).

I also saw a list of odds today, in which Dyche wasn't even on the list, so could not really take it seriously.

Lampard, Howe, Benitez, Terry, Lee Johnson, Pardew (!!!!!!!!), Carrick.

Also if you resign you probably don't get a payoff

I'd be amazed if Brighton dump Potter. They dumped Houghton after he got them up and kept them up on the very public grounds that they wanted to play better football, and were so committed to what they wanted Potter to do in the long term that they extended his initial four year contract by two or three years extra within almost no time at all.

Agree if they had a finisher they would certainly be higher up the table.No way they are getting rid of potter he is on a long contract as well.

His Dad's not dead...

So I manage a Workshop which provides a safe learning environment for blokes struggling with PTSD and other mental health issues. Being a Palace fan isn't listed yet.

Celtic get about as far as Dundalk in the Champions League. Admittedly, they have had past successes but Scottish football is not exactly Brazil, or even Sunderland. Celtic should employ one of their own current coaches. It's not going to be hard to finish second.

Red and Blue Army!

All these pundits give their views on what they think Howe should do, but only one view actually matters and that's Howe. He's all but rejected Celtic so think that settles it. Now it's just a case of the other important view...Parrish's.

The thing that Chris Sutton hasn’t grasped, is that if he fails at Celtic, just by coming 2nd behind Rangers for a couple of years, then he might get a job at Dundee Utd or Rotherham. Successful at Palace by getting us say 7th one season and he could be in line for a job at Everton or perhaps a top 6 club.
Celtic are a much bigger club, but you spend most of your time playing league 1 standard opposition and when you qualify for Europe you end up losing to the 3rd place team from Switzerland.

According to this report Fonseca is leaving Roma at the end of the season.

People keep saying what a big club Celtic are, but take Brendan Rodgers out of the equation (who quit at the first chance of a return to the PL) and their managerial appointments over the last decade or so are very underwhelming:

Tony Mowbray, Neil Lennon, Ronny Delia

Would you have wanted any of them?

They have history on their side and they win trophies in a two horse race. Nevertheless, Howe could win 10 leagues at Celtic but still get more recognition if he got Palace into a Europa League spot for one season. Also, he'd probably get paid double what he'd get paid at Celtic.
