    You can't really count like 8 games as caretaker manager as a season in charge, and he won all his games except Ross county.

    You post said you were laughing at the comparison then you said you knew he wasn't comparing?

    Yeah we know you don't like him or whatever but there's no need to post back everytime someone sticks up for him.

    I post everytime he does something worth posting about. Just as you always quote my post and bash my opinion down with your's.

    So you mean he * up the one real thing he had a chance of winning in his caretaker stint?

    Don’t have an issue with him kicking water bottles or confronting corrupt officials. But a paying supporter who has every right to be concerned? No chance. It was a disgrace.

    I said earlier in the thread that MON remonstrated with some supporters, but not in the aggressive style that Lennon did.

    So basically you come on when he does something 'wrong' I don't recall you supporting when he's won the last few games. If this 2 second incident is the only fault you can find then he's doing a good job :50:

    Concerned? We won the game and played some brilliant football. Just a drunken idiot, probs not even a fan. Some people said they had never seen him there before.

    It seemed to me like Lennon said 'if your not happy, go home' so the guy should go home, and don't come back.

    Are you really going to hold the Mowbray debacle over Lenny?

    It's his second season, his first season he came within one point of the championship, with a points tally that would have won the league the previous five years.

    That's why he is getting another chance this year.

    Don't know why I'm replying to you though because you are just negative all the time that I can't help thinking you are just at the wind up.

    I don’t blame other supporters for getting angry; after all we should have seen that game out of sight.

    Lennon should have been pleased to get the points and just walked down the tunnel. There was no need for the reaction at the end, it really did reflect badly on him.

    Well people make a point that the league was lost because of Mowbray, but the SC was still in the running, and we went out to Ross County. That was Lennons fault. All be it a begginers mistake, and one I didnt really care about at the time because I believed we would get a new man in that summer. Sadly we did not.

    1 point last season - Losing is losing. His team bottled it a few times to take the points tally even higher. Can bang on about 1 point, high total etc etc. We lost the league, Rangers didnt win it. His fault IMO.

    This Season - He masterminded the team to some beyond * performances with some crazy tactics and team selections. Yes we have won a few but we are hardly convincing, and when we are, we still nearly draw the game.

    Since Neil has been in charge, there has been some infair attention brought on him by the bombs and bullets however, his own behavior has been shocking at times. There was no need for him to angrily turn on a fan, regardless. Just pointless and stupid and will give him more negative press.

    Simple as that really. We have a better team, more money and more potential than the huns, yet we are hoping they * up so we can win the league again. I cant help feel as a fan, I have been hard done by with Neil's poor management. Its not negativity. I praise the team for a victory, which I have been doing recently. But not Neil. The performances other than the first half during the week have been lacking what it takes to win a league.

    We battered them for 75 minutes, if the fans were not happy with that they can stay at home. We can't have 9-0 every game. There is no possible reason anybody should have been angry at that game.

    I've spoken to several neutrals about it, including a rangers fan and they can't believe this is still being dragged out, it shouldn't have even been news. The only people who are dragging this on are our own fans!

    In all fairness mate, if we battered them, it should not have ended how it did. Simple as that.

    This shocking behaviour you speak of, can you give me examples.

    And if you say Hearts away or the "shame game" don't even bother.

    I will give you 3.

    Critisizing his own players.

    Angrily confronting a fan.

    Various petulant outbursts like kicking bottles around, and or reacting to fat Allys baiting infront of the camera.

    And that's "shocking" behaviour is it?

    Did you grow up in a bubble?

    In your eyes perhaps. When I see a team like Dunfermline, who by all circumstances survive on about a 20th of what we do per season put up with that kind of beating they did then almost scrap a draw away from home.

    I think it did not end to perfectly. Poor management and players resting on a good first half performance.
