I have read through the posts on RD Moyes and other mangers and have come to this conclusion.
RD was suppose to improve our fitness our youth and our coaching. I see no change from all the other recent managers under NL when reduced to 10 men we battled and dominated games to come through and win ( who could forget the game against rangers that certainly won us the league that year)
D Moyes was a fool to take the United job when he did had he held off he would be there now and had hundreds of millions to spend, Martinez has done no better than him at Everton and the young players he is using were delveloped by DM He too has been given a lot more money than DM

AS for the scottish managers named all have there good and bad points which may make them risky however as an Assistant to an experenced Manager ( European or British) it may be an ideal choice as in the case of Macleod and Jansen.

Out of interest, what game with ten men did we come back against rangers (under Neil Lennon) that Won us the league? I genuinely can't remember.

R D was given a Scottish assistant and some say that hasn't worked out too well.
If and when R D leaves or is asked to leave his replacement will be a risk. There is no guarantee that the in- coming manager will do as well . The Managership job at Celtic is particularly difficult as very many of Celtic's fans are far more ambitious for Celtic to succeed on the playing field than the board is . It can't be easy for any manager of any club who winning their league doesn't satisfy the more vocal supporters.

The game the op was referring to was the Scottish cup game we drew 2,2 away to rangers where we totally outplayed them with ten men.

Thanks i had forgot it was in the cup. the point i was making we dominated even with 10 men and the result propelled us forward to subsequently beat them to win the league.

Oh I see. Well, that cup game (I don't think we did totally outplay them albeit we should have won by the end of it) led to a Scottish cup win - not a league title. We actually lost the league to Rangers that season, if I'm not mistaken, after a poor defeat in Inverness. So let's get some perspective here. You can't use examples that don't exist as yet another way to bash RD.
