    By the sounds of that interview it already is if the group is as fractured as he’s making it sound.

    Its deeply deeply concerning that's Lennon's view. We didn't get beat by copenhagen , Cluj or tonight because of an individual mistake and I find it fairly appaling that he is attempting to * el hamed under the bus for tonight. It's our * tactics, our formation , our chance creation. Elhamed would never have been in that position if we were 2-1/3-1 up at that point. It's our inability and difficulty to create and score that is * us and will continue to * us in spl away games unless something changes

    Lawell has been a common denominator. He has more power than anyone.

    Its a weighing up process.. bring someone else in with an unknown effect..

    or stick with lennon and back him to get the right reaction.

    * abject. There's a time to say 'thanks but no thanks' to Lennon and now is as ripe a time as ever. He's a poor manager, and I can't believe some idiots think he's top class.

    If anyone thinks Lennon is the answer going forward, then you can only be small minded. This is Celtic - it should be attracting managers of significant talent and expertise, at the very least, progressive minded coaches with an eye on the future to consistently bring this club into the elite of European cup competition.

    Not some neanderthal like Lennon. It's pathetic and downright embarrassing. That other lot will smell blood, Steven Gerrard couldn't ask for a more ideal opponent in the dugout. Okay, it would be unwise to replace him at this stage (unless there's a better alternative who would be certain to take charge which means he should go immediately) but slowly but surely, with Lennon in charge, we are going to be caught by that lot.

    It depends on how the dressing room is. If he's firing about accusations of folk not wanting to be there, it makes for an unpleasant and unhappy atmosphere. Initially tonight i was saying he should stay till end of the season but the more I think about it, I'm torn.

    Lennon going would be pointless if the * above him don't follow, we should be be doing so much better for the size of club we are the fact the huns got further in Europe last season than us should have been a wake up call.

    Unfair to John Kennedy tbh he doesn’t pick the team football is very physiological in no way has that team trained during the week for no striker upfront ...... to then be told hey guys here the line up players would start to panic wondering what the * then notice star man out the team can be only one reason and it’s no injury they would know that aswell ..... Lennon answer in the post conference confirms that for me ...... crystal ball says board have had an offer and don’t want him to play fair enough what isn’t alright is for that * to then Play no striker up front in protest its the only thing that makes sense because klimala was fit

    In all honestly I think it’s up in the air as is. The ramifications after this lose will be massive.

    Something’s gone on in that dressing room after the game.

    Nah, not for me.

    You've got to give Klimala a chance first. He worked his * off, while Griff * about.

    Imagine you're Klimala and a club has paid £3.5m for your services, you graft like *, bide your time, all other strikers are unavailable or unfit and your manager picks a midfielder to play ahead of you. It's a slap in the face that basically says "I don't have faith in you"

    I wish Lenny hadn't said anything about players who want to leave - it's just going to lead to witch-hunting.

    Mind you, it was a VERY un-Lenny like thing to say, so I guess he must be pretty *-off with whoever he was referring to.

    Not a good night. :-(

    I actually think he means Christie he’s the one in signing talks and his performances have been * since that came out and his father talking about epl very similar to ajer in that regard if any one needs to go though it’s Lennon himself

    Nights like this are bred out of the absolute refusal to blood players and give fringe players game time when we are * 4 nil up at home in an spl match.

    Have to say I agree but sometimes basic defending really does become a major issue with our back line as well. Ajer and Jullien try to play like VVD. In SPFL v Hamilton thats fine. Europe, Nope. Lennon and Kennedy have to get them back to basics. Kennedy was a no nonsense CB, I cant understand why we cant get the CB partnership right with him overlooking it.

    One thing I will say in fairness to Lenny, hes working without his usual backroom staff. I bet he would have chose Gary Parker to come back over Strachan.

    Maybe he is trying to take the heat off himself, but I think it’s backfired.

    I can’t believe what he has disclosed.
