Ridiculous in my opinion.

I know we don't do politics on here, and this is somewhat different to the wider piece, but I think a retirement age of 65 - 68 should be inplace, and probably with a slightly higher state pension. I know a lot of people still feel fit and able but that's a very different debate.

Much as there is this belief that older workers don't block the paths of the young, I think there is a really big issue with older workers, who society need to try and find ways to keep entertained, outside of filling the job spaces/opportunities the young need to be occupying.

And I know, I know. O'Neil signing as manager of Celtic is different but he is doing it because he is bored and needs a purpose, and whilst a fair number of older workers will say they are doing it for money, I remain somewhat unconvinced about that argument.

I expect this post to be deleted but it's off my chest.

He wants to work, turned their season around, when it looked hopeless. It's ridiculous that he wouldn't be offered the job if he wanted it, he's earned that much.
