    Their banner today was outstanding, and it speaks on behalf of me as a Celtic supporter.

    As did their banner the other week, despite widespread condemnation by a large section of the Celtic support.

    I’m pretty sure it’s his last year, though I might be wrong sadly.

    I’ve said it aswell before gyp, mibee just my personal opinion, guys like McNeill, jinky, lennox, mcgrain, Aitken, larrson lubo and the likes were Celtic legend s to me, always liked Lennon as a player for his 5 years under MON and latterly with Strachan, always gave a 100% , good captain and won a few trophies aswell and was very good in his role as a midFielder Spoiler doing the ugly side of the game, Celtic man through and through as a say all about personal opinions but never a Celtic legend for me anyway

    Kennedy was a good player and it was very unfortunate that his career ended prematurely, but you don’t give someone a job as a backroom staff on the basis of nothing else but sympathy

    He's a *, a yes man, a slabbering * of a man.

    It is one thing to be deluded enough to think you can fix a run of 3 or 4 defeats, to be so "Celtic minded" that you want to fix this for the fans.
    It's a complete other thing to be 11 games deep in to this and be so * deluded to use words like "breath taking" "excellent" "positive body language" and then to call the fans out, call us entitled to want better - we arent demanding we win 10, we WANT to win 10, we are not demanding it, but we do demand we have a manager who can do his * * best to get us it.
    It is not entitled to want that.

    Entitled is expecting that we will just * get it, which is what Lennon and still a few remaining supporters of his * think. Entitled is assuming the huns are going to implode and we will just come good, because.

    * off with that * and * off Lennon with calling the fans out, * off with calling us entitled, calling our voice worthless, * off with backing the board as they literally put fences around the stadium - OUR stadium.

    What was those words Fergus said when he built the stadium? I am sure he made some sort of comment about making a stadium for the club, the fans?


    Anyway, * it. Lennon has sold his soul to the * devil in PL and DD and he has completely lost touch with the fans, I will not question his love for the club, but it is clear to see he is very far removed from what the club is.

    Lennon, when you are gone I am afraid to say you will not be remembered fondly any more. That ship has sailed these past week or two.

    Agree, a Celtic legend would not still be sitting in that office right now. He's all about greed.
    I get that not many would walk away from a well paid job, but football money is different from normal jobs. He aint short of a few quid and won't need to work a day in his life, if he wanted he can go in to punditry for a pay cheque every month.
    To still be sitting in that office is a disgrace, compounded more by how he talks about, to and treats the fans these last few weeks.

    Him throwing Barkas and Bain under the bus today saying he’s looking at a few players already. If he thinks the keeper is our major problem, he’s more hysterically in denial than I thought. Teams only concede goals if the other team are allowed to have shots on goal, the way we play allows not so many shots but set pieces, that’s either petulant fouls out and inside the box, or gifting corners. Granted neither keeper has covered themselves in glory but there are 11 players on the pitch the keepers the last form of defence, I’ve never seen a keeper in a Celtic jersey having so many saves to make, there was a time where the quality around the park see teams struggle to get 2-3 shots a game. When your that bad at set plays and allowing teams to whip in balls all afternoon your going to concede.

    It’s like reverse transfer deadline with Celtic, desperate for the board to do something and then you get a loan at the last minute, fans expecting him to be sacked yet the board keeps on the denial that things need to change. Rotten to the core.

    @Noskeil missed todays interviews, not sure I want to bother with it, but has he actually thrown the two keepers under the bus? Still not seen him owe up to the didy Duffy being put in front of them yet.
    He's ready to blame anyone but himself for this * up.

    He's a *.

    Have been staying of social media with all whats going on with our club. Depressing times indeed seeing our fans all divided and calling for Lennys head! These sort of banners and protests will definitely have the board taking notice about next years renewals thats for sure. After Sunday, i just couldnt see away back for Lenny. I was * devastated after the game and ended drowinging my sarrows on them sambucas in a lock in we had in the local pub! The misses found me on the other side of town staggering not knowing where the * i was going near 12ish. Thats how bad that game was for me thinking the 10 is gone so i ended up not giving a * and trying to take my mind of things getting wasted. Something i would never drink these days because i know how dangerous they can be! I havent been in one of them states in a long long time and its even embarrassing thinking back to it as i cant remember a * thing from that night but i just wanted to forget about what was going on! Waking up with the worst of all hangovers i couldnt believe Lenny hadnt been sacked!

    Lennys staying untill Jan unless we drop anymore points and if we can claw back any points and the huns slip up then we beat them at Ibrox then all our mindsets will change and hopefully the team going on a great run. Its happened before and can happen again and if anyone doesnt believe this then they dont know football. Its more hope than belief at this stage, though if im brutally honest football is a funny old game as has shown in all our lives i think we can still do it! Look at how quick weve fallen, surely the same can happen for the better and has done before. The huns with them playing great and getting the results, that isnt going to last forever. I cant see it! Wishfull thinking maybe because they are clocking up th epoints however all it takes is a few suspensions, injuries and there whole season will change!

    Keep plodding on and hopefully the bhoys will start getting the points needed on the board, come Jan get rid off Ntcham and id even stick my kneck out and say get rid of eddy aswell. That money will go along way to getting reinforcements in needed to push on including FF in nets. Lenny has pulled it back before and even thou i do believe he should have been sacked or walked, hes here to stay and i do believe he can do it again with luck, new recruits and the change in mindset in the players. All it takes is a few good games for that self belief again and who knows. This bad run cant go on forever and when you break it down, there isnt really that much in it. We are out of the league cup, that and no european football to distract us. If we win them games in hand and * the huns at ibrox then its game on again. I for one am not giving up. not a * chance and i seriously dont think its over. Ive seen to much change quickly in football in my time following Celtic to know leagues are never over in OCT, Nov and Dec even when things never look as positive in these months!

    I do believe Com May, the banners will read GLASGOW CELTIC 10IAR CHAMPIONS!

    With that, im considering sticking a few quid on us tomorrow to win the league and im willing to bet one person on here 50quid that come May, well be the ones celebrating rather than them vermin * across the city!

    Another problem with Neil Lennon is he looks at the Hun result too much.

    He’s actually implied today we only need to win all our games this month if they win all theirs. What kind of * talk is that?

    People wonder why he constantly needs to launch comebacks to win a league..

    Lennon will only go now when we get battered at Ibrox.

    He may well go on a decent run in the league now considering who we're up against. We'll rack up some points but any slip up, won't see him gone imo until Ibrox.

    It's a shame it's going to take what may well be the final nail in the coffin to our season for him to be ousted.

    Problem I have is we could feasibly gain ground between now and Ibrox and even sneak a result there and it wouldn’t matter.

    The problems with Lennon are deep rooted. If he has a miraculous purple patch now the problems will resurface February/March next year when it’s too late to fix it.
