Martin O'Neill: To win another title as Celtic manager is like a dream Returning to Celtic as manager and winning another league title has felt like a dream for Martin O’Neill. In the course of this rollercoaster season, the Irishman has had two spells in charge, and he has guided the Hoops to another Premiership title – their fifth in a row – with a dramatic 3-1 victory over Hearts at Paradise. Speaking to Celtic TV after the title triumph, the Celtic manager said: “It’s surreal and what we didn’t really want to do was to get as close as we’d done and then not win it.
It’s been a fantastic effort. “Last year I came along as a pundit, so a year later to be here as the manager of the football club, is really, really incredible. 'I genuinely can’t believe it.
It’s like a dream. ' “Of the things that Kieran Tierney’s won, he’s said this is the most special, and it is really special for me. It’s probably because I can’t remember the ones from back on those days!
“I have two grandchildren who were at the game. The three-year-old won’t know what it’s al about – she just keeps saying ‘Celtic, Celtic. ’ But the seven-year-old will grasp this and that’s just lovely.
