illy Davies has said that he would be interested in managing Celtic one day - but also stressed he still has a job to do at Nottingham Forest.[LNB] The Hoops formally launched their search for a new manager after the last game of the season, following a successful interim spell with Neil Lennon at the helm.[LNB]Davies steered Forest to third place in the Championship but promotion hopes were dashed when they lost to Blackpool in the play-offs.[LNB]He has been linked with the vacant Celtic job, despite having played for Rangers in the 1980s.[LNB]"As a professional football manager there is not a job that I would not consider," he told STV Sports Centre.[LNB]"If the terms and conditions were right, if the club structure was right and the right support mechanisms were in place then, as a professional football manager, only a fool would turn around and say no to any interest from any club."[LNB]Regarding a move to Parkhead, he added: "Until something official had happened well, you look at the situation then. I can't stop the speculation. I'm employed by Nottingham Forest for another two years.[LNB]"I have got conversations I have to have with the board regarding what lies ahead in the future but all other speculation is purely speculation.[LNB]"I've had no official contact from anybody about any other job. My job is to focus on the balls, bibs, disc and cones as they say.[LNB]"From my point of view I certainly would not turn my back on any potential interested party if they make it official to Forest, if they agree compensation, and they do what is necessary.[LNB]"Until that happens I turn a blind eye to it, it's just speculation and I look forward to the challenge I've got as manager of Nottingham Forest."
