John Reid, the former Home Secretary, is poised to become the next chairman of Celtic Football Club.
Mr Reid, an ardent fan of the Glasgow club, has been offered the job and is understood to be "highly likely" to take it, according to senior sources. Mr Reid will replace Brian Quinn, 70, who has been chairman since 2000 and has made it clear he wants to step down.
The appointment of Mr Reid, 60, has been pushed for by Dermot Desmond, the Irish entrepreneur who is the largest shareholder in the club.
But will Dr Reid find that Celtic are 'fit for purpose'?
