Neil Lennon

Typical orange *

 

Is Lennon's missus still with him after all that pumping other birds nonsense?

 

:smiley-laughing002:
Nothing would annoy these zombies more then seeing their new team get skelped by Lenny

 

Can see you any potential manager coming out in the media saying this squad is useless?

Do you think it would also be wise for a potential manager to claim to need +£20 to spend on new players?

 

I am just defensive of Lenny.

For me I would be happy with Lenny, Moyes, Rodgers or quite a few other managers. Lenny would be safer short term as he knows many of the players and is more familiar with the role than Moyes but in the long term I feel Moyes would be better.

I agree with you re Keane

 

Totally agree. Makes me wish I wasn't Scottish.

I understand the desire not to bow to the sort of mindless filth who dish out the abuse and I also understand that Neil loves Celtic. However if I am being completely honest, if I was in his shoes I would sit down and have a serious think about whether I really want to come back to this bigoted cesspit of a country. Is it really worth the hassle? I'm not sure I would feel it is. He's better off away from here.

 

One thing Lenny never bothered about was putting players on the bench who didn't feel were performing. Kayal was his go to guy, he replaced him due to his injuries etc. Sammy was regularly on the bench in the SPFL despite being a big Lenny favourite, Matthews was doing very well for him and he bought Lustig and had Matthews as mostly the back up, he'd drop Lustig for Matthews at times.

Hooper got benched and Stokes was the number 1 striker because he was outperforming around the time of Rennes.

Decisions like that I'd have no bother in trusting him to make. As it is, I don't think the likes of Commons and Broony are as finished as people are making out.

 

He * loves it with us though mate, he said that when he left us to play for Forest, Celtic is just a different level for him both as a club and a personal level. So he retired and came back as a coach.

It's the type of character he is, he won't back down from a fight and he won't let people stop him from doing what he loves. Which is why I'm quite baffled about some of the comments we've seen about him on here lately.

 

Commons is getting older, he just needs used more sparingly. Something that hasn't happened properly under Ronny weither. Broony is 30 and has the manager publically declaring he's playing him when he isn't fit because he was rushed back. I don't have many worries that he'll be back on top once he is properly fit. People said the same thing when we were playing him with a * ankle and then again when we played him through his hip injury.

As it is, I don't think Lenny doesn't have the balls to drop guys he doesn't think are doin the job under him.

 

I know that and that is part of the reason I admire and love him so much. I don't think it would be for me though, I think there would eventually come a point where I'd just go '* this....I'm putting myself and my family first'.

I have no doubt that if Neil comes back here we'll see more of the trouble we saw last time he was here. It's * disgusting. It is also one of the reasons I have never wanted, and will never want, the zombies back. I don't give a * about competition or atmosphere, when I think of them I think about the way they've treated Neil Lennon since he arrived in this country 16 years ago. That's who and what they are.

 

Brilliant post mate

I think the older I get the more I'd do a runner as well. Doesn't and never will sit well with me though.

 

This is why I am disgusted with posters referring to hims as "coming back with his tail between his legs", "desperate for the job". I wonder how many of the other potential candidates would be happy to take the job if they were to get the same treatment as Lenny. We should be honoured to have a potential manager who holds us in such high esteem that he is willing to come back and suffer more abuse for the love of his team.

 

Well said. Especially the bolded part.

 

i'd just love to be standing next to the sort of * that does that, you'd just skelp the * into next week.

 

A lot of * on here aren't Celtic fans Dev. They might own a Celtic shirt but they don't have a clue.

 

If I was at a Noel Gallagher gig I wouldnt give a * who was there id jsut enjoy the music like imagine going out of your way to target the ex manager of a football team you dislike
