Neil Lennon has joined the managerial merry-go-round with dozens of bosses jostling for a handful of jobs.

Carlos Calvalhal, Chris Hughton and Rafa Benitez have all been linked to various degrees with the Celtic job while Lennon continues with his duties as caretaker.

Yesterday the Irishman took in a reserve team friendly match against Hearts at Tynecastle then travelled to the midlands to watch West Brom lose out to Aston Villa in the EPL play off.

With James Shan in a caretaker role at The Hawthorns he finds himself in exactly the same situation as Lennon who is being quoted as a 10/1 shot to become the next Baggies boss.

Lennon and Garry Parker are former team-mates at Leicester City with plenty of contacts in and around the Midlands.

Since the weekend a number of sources have emerged claiming that Lennon still needs to be convinced that the Celtic job is in the interests of his career.

While other names have been linked with Celtic Davie Moyes has firmed up with the bookies with the former West Ham boss being out of football for one year.
