Celtic finally appoint Lennon as manager but have to wait on Baxter

Celtic will end months of uncertainty today when they finally appoint Neil Lennon as their new manager after the 38-year-old agreed to terms with the club’s hierarchy.

Central to the delay in naming the Irishman had been the make-up of Lennon’s backroom team. He is set to be assisted by Alan Thompson, Johan Mjallby and Garry Parker, team-mates from his spells at Celtic and Leicester City respectively.
