Martin O'Neill is keeping calm after a big Celtic result, even with fan anger and boardroom tension swirling around Parkhead.
Celtic have a result to celebrate, but Martin O'Neill is refusing to get carried away. Asked about the title picture after a statement victory, the veteran boss waved off the significance of a four-point margin: in his view, it is nothing at this stage of the season.
The calm tone stands out against the noise surrounding the club. Supporters have been openly unhappy, and a recent protest targeted the major shareholder, leaving the mood around Celtic far more complicated than a big win might suggest.
O'Neill, meanwhile, has made clear that this is no time to think about winding things down. Experienced and unflustered, he is treating the job as unfinished business and pushing the focus back onto the next game rather than the politics around it.
It makes for an unusual domestic storyline: a team collecting a meaningful result, a manager urging patience, and a fanbase still demanding answers off the pitch. How Celtic balance those pressures could shape the run-in as much as anything that happens on the grass.
