On-loan Albion defender Shane Duffy has been left without a manager at Celtic after Neil Lennon resigned this morning.

The Hoops are 18 points behind leaders Rangers in the Scottish Premier League after they were beaten 1-0 by Ross County on Sunday.

Duffy, who is on a season-long loan at Celtic, has made 25 appearances in all competitions so far this season scoring three goals and getting one assists.

Lennon's assistant, John Kennedy, will take interim charge while they search for a new manager.

Celtic took to Twitter this morning to break the news, with the following message: "Celtic Football Club today announced that Neil Lennon has resigned from his position as Football Manager with immediate effect.

"We thank Neil sincerely for all he has done for the club and we wish him every success going forward."
