Celtic are the "best" club in the UK to manage – but two of their Premiership counterparts are the most perilous, according to a new study.
Statistics collected by OLBG rank the Parkhead side ahead of Liverpool, Manchester United and rivals Rangers as the most desirable destination for bosses.
The report bases its findings on the average length of time managers remain in the job.
Of the 22 to have led Celtic down the years, each man typically stays in the job for an average of 2,050 days (five years, seventh months) - just a shade longer than the 2,039 days at Anfield.
Club legend Willie Maley is also the UK's second-longest serving manager with 15,644 days (42 years, 10 months) in charge, behind only West Brom's Fred Everiss with 16,740 days (45 years, 10 months).
Manchester United 's 1,932 day mean is owed largely to Sir Alex Ferguson's 26-year reign, which places them in front of Rangers.
Aberdeen land in fourth with a four year, seven month average, with Motherwell in 11th (three years, five months) and St Johnstone in 12th (three years, fourth months)
By contrast, Livingston were named the most dangerous for managers, closely followed by Hibs.
Livi average a change in the dugout every year and four months, while at Easter Road it's a year and eight months.
A further three Scottish sides feature in the danger list.
Ross County average a change every year and 10 months, while for St Mirren and Dundee it's slightly longer at a year and 11 months.
