    Hi hate saying this but I’ve seen enough over the past couple of months, the club really need to use these next 2 weeks to inject something into the team, after today Lennon is going nowhere, the next best thing is to bring in a quality assistant instead of rat boy Strachan. If the board don’t sort this out over the next couple of weeks then we can kiss good bye to the 10.

    Wasn’t being nippy mate, just no matter what our views on Neil are it seems a little demeaning. :50:

    Your right mate, don’t think cheeky bhoy was meaning it the way some people do but aw this nasty nonsense calling the guy an Alkie, saying he’s turned up at training pished crap, the guy deserves criticism for a lot of his decisions this year but as a player and a manager the guys a professional with standard s and do you honestly think the players and staff would all be covering up for him, absolutely no chance

    guy basically had a big red nose due to a big red pimple, next minute he’s getting labelled an alky from a small portion of Celtic fans

    leave they comment s to the Huns vermin crew

    Nah, the set up was fine today, at no point did we aimlessly knock it about and the individuals are paid big money to win games like that, that's why we're better than motherwell.

    Torn here with Lennon I think we should get better and I wanted him to succeed at the start the board won’t sack him so I guess we all just have to belt ourselves in and with some hope that he turns it around .... if anything his love for Celtic like a fan might just get him through it needs to change his approach though and maybe him being a fan is what pushes him to change

    Might come off as apologetic, but Motherwell were in a good vein of form, so it's not like we beat a totally * team.

    Totally agree mate you don’t score four goals that we did today by aimlessly knocking it about- every goal was a well worked move or pass or cross and unlucky with Christie Rogic and frimpong could easily have been 6 or 7 and when you play any team away from home they will get a spell of chances and possession- and oh bhoy saying he changed absolutely * all, everyone saying edouard didn’t warrant a start and big Duffy needed dropped and he did that so that’s not changing absolutely * all

    granted would like to see brown making way for Turnbull, and still a lot of stuff to be worked on and I’ve been one of his many critics this season but credit where it’s due 4-1 away win- guy got it mostly right today

    Exactly mate, no one saying their Real Madrid but they’ve won last 4 out of 5 matches without conceding- went up to pittodrie and trounced them 3-0, so on our current form and on their s and away from home it had the makings of a potential banana skin today- so winning 4-1 was a really good result

    The performance today shows again that the issues with our losses I think has been more down to the players not turning up, maybe it has been all to easy in previous seasons and we've needed a taste of defeat several times to get the message through we need to work for it.

    Was far from perfect, we seemed to lose the midfield for about 15 mins in the 2nd half but regained it with the 3rd goal. That causes the defensive issue where we end up stretched and outnumbered but are far more assured at the back with Ajer on. Still too many mistakes though, a better team would of punished us with the chances Motherwell had today, so still plenty to work on defensively.

    Got a good result today out of the players.

    Should be his last game in charge though.

    To get to the 10 we have to be unrelenting, unforgiving and ruthless. Lennon can't be allowed to go game by game papering over cracks.

    We need to dig up the foundations and build now.

    Bang on the money there. Today was a massive result for Neil. Hopefully things will kick on from here. We need to be more positive

    We said “hopefully things will kick on” after the Aberdeen Cup Semi.

    Exactly this for me, but no chance are they sacking him after a win. It should’ve been done on Friday morning, that said the international break is coming up so stranger things have happened.

    For most of the first half we were reasonably comfortable as Motherwell were quite happy to sit off us and let us have the ball. When the second half started they pushed up more trying to have a higher line and closed us down quicker. This is when panic stations at the back were happening, we looked vulnerable and disorganised at the back. If you look at recent games including the Huns game, our set up is easy to press and play a high line against. This is why we are struggling, Lennon refuses to change the set up during a game if it is not working. If a team is playing a high line , miss out the midfield and get in behind them.
