Neil Lennon

It will be immense.... merchandise, dvds , special edition kits, etc etc.... it would run and sell for years...

The ‘board’ being so money oriented and revenue conscious will be more than aware of this. You’d have to think that they seriously thought/think that Lenny is the better option as opposed to offloading and bringing in a competent and safe pair of hands.

 

How managers has lawwell actually sacked? In his tenure spanning more than 15 years, think it was just mowbary or am I wrong

Correct

 

No really, why hasn't he been sacked yet?

 

I've said it on here years ago. So frustating. One of the reasons i gave up my ST years ago was because of the short-sightedness of the board. Listen i get we're a business and have shareholders to keep happy but i don't believe most of the support were looking for too much. MON called it years ago when he said he had taken us as far he could. I know we need to watch the pennies but we've done it to an extent we've cost oursleves big time by not pushing the boat out that wee bit at the right time. Look at Fletcher that January years and the amount of times we've fannied about during windows and costing us CL groups. That's not to even mention Mcginn. I'll grant you they got the rat but i think that relationship hit rocky ground fairly early. And then when we have spent big, for us, we've spunked nearly all of it on a lot of garbage. We could have buried these *, made a lot more dosh with CL groups and have a healthier bank balance into the bargain.

Rant over. My tuppence.

 

Much of that article is nonsense in defence of Neil Lennon's work, and in the parts that are accurate (about boardroom negligence) he just repeats what has been said countless times on this forum by myself and many others.

So he can take his superior attitude to "keyboard warriors and football manager obsessives" and ram it up his *.

 

The panic happened when he was given the job after the final in a shower. That was a panic move, so the board could find a manger for the long term or had they already had someone in mind and it all fell thro.

 

Work's been a good distraction today. Only slightly surprised he's not gone. Really quite down about how this is playing out. Would love if it had worked out for Lennon.

 

Is anybody else starting to have doubts about Lenny's management going forward?

 

Need to keep things in perspective we've had a bad week lets not get carried away

 

He no' away yet?

 

I wouldn’t quite call it panic stations just yet. He’s done well in adversity before mind! Something inside so strong! HH

 

Can’t believe he’s still here man.

Board clearly just not wanting to be seen to be bowing to fan pressure.

- 2 wins in 10.
- Out the CL to a half fit Ferencvaros due to not playing a striker and being reactive rather than proactive in his use of subs.
- Zero shots at home to the Huns.
- Out the EL with 2 games to spare after being hammered 8-2 by Sparta A and B teams.
- Cup run ended at home to Ross County.
- £35m spent since he’s been here and we’re now worse off for it.
- Players all regressing under him.

Hopefully we’re just keeping him in charge temporarily until we finalise talks with another manager and that he’ll be gone later in the week regardless of the result vs Milan. Probably not though.

 

Remember the taunts...

“Pedro must stay”

“Warburton must stay”

The shoe is firmly on the other foot now.

This situation has just highlighted that the biggest problem at CFC is the Board.

 

Can’t believe he’s still in a job

If you didn’t laugh, you’d cry.

 

How in the * is he still here !!

 

He s maybe still here as it's part of the 5 way agreement

 

I'm only laughing because I'd cry otherwise.

 

I thought on a 1 year rolling contract we would need to give him a years wages to get rid if that’s the case then he is due £2.4 million. That’s why he is still there.
He is on the same doh as the rat.
