    Celtic came in as heavy favourites, and it's job done.

    And what a job done Martin O'Neill has done. From where they've been throughout this season, for him to guide them to a double is quite incredible.

    Who knows? Will it be the last time we see him?

    He's shown he's more than capable. It's re-energised him, and given him the best feeling he's had as a manager.

    Did anyone ever believe this season that Celtic could win a double? It's quite incredible.

    For Martin O'Neill to come back in two spells and to turn this around is remarkable story. It'll be in the history books, written about.

    It depends what the future holds for the club and for him.

    A nice moment in the dugout at the end there. Martin O'Neill and his former player Neil Lennnon embrace.

    Lennon raises O'Neill's arm in the air like a boxing referee would do to the champ.

    A disappointing day for Dunfermline, but they did brilliantly to get this far in the manner they did.

    Martin O'Neill's name rings around Hampden Park. We're into four minutes of stoppage time.

    If Daizen Maeda does leave Celtic this summer, he is going to be so hard to replace.

    I don't know if Steve Clarke is here, but he'll be sending signals to Martin O'Neill... aren't we all.

    All good Amy, Marcelo Sarrachi replaces Kieran Tierney for Celtic.

    The goal has given them belief they can get back into it.

    The response has been excellent and they're putting Celtic under a fair bit of pressure here.

    Dunfermline win a corner. They're asking a few questions. They couldn't, could they?

    Kieran Tierney felt a sore one in a tackle and was getting some treatment. He got to his feet and moved to the side of the park.

    He's back on. I think I speak for a nation when I say...GET HIM OFF.
