    What else can it be ? He has acknowledged he is lucky to still be in a job and its apparent he can't turn it around. Obviously he wont come out in the press and state that as his reason but I for one would respect him a * of a lot more for it

    Think if you read every thread, every Celtic fan to a man wants Lennon to get to * asap,by not using the phrase *, tartan teeth or a fat * that eats to many chips before saying they want him to * off is not supporting him more than Celtic

    He is but, that's why he's a fraud and not a legend, coupled with the fact he's out his depth and woefully incompetent.

    Lennon says he has TRIED EVERYTHING and it's not having an effect

    So what is the point of giving him more time!

    He has already tried everything and it didn't work so what is it he plans to do because he reckons he has done his best and tried everything...

    Well in that case it's time to go because you have nothing left to offer..

    Condemned by his own words.

    If he wanted to resign and get a payoff, he could easily negotiate with the board over termination of contract. He doesn’t have to outright resign and throw away compensation, if that is his motive.

    Things must be bad when there's actually people from the Celtic Blog now saying that they've had enough. Was * off during the week with their mightier than thou type comments when they were condemning the protest and actually backing the board. The penny has finally dropped

    “The phrase *”

    A lot of very sensitive people on here. Said it before but it’s * weird how personally some people take it.

    After everything he’s done for Celtic, calling him a fraud is frankly, laughable.

    Calling him a legend after it took, what, 18 months, less even? To undo almost a decade of work, is quite frankly, laughable.

    Well if money is his motive like you claim, that’s one of his options.

    Where did I call him a legend?

    I don’t think the payoff issue is as black and white as some are making it.

    If he sits down with Lawwell and admits that he’s not the man for the job, there’s no doubt in my mind that they would quickly come to an agreement about any severance package. He’s in a 1-year rolling contract, on a wage that isn’t astronomical, so I can’t believe the payoff is the reasons why he doesn’t walk, or why we don’t fire him.

    For me, he doesn’t walk because it effectively spells the end of his managerial career, and we don’t fire him because it’s the admission of a massive failing on the part of the board.

    I know it shouldn't have been but, todays game was a must win so, why did he only go with one striker up top.

    We are well beyond debating his merits as a manager; the anger directed at him now is a reflection of him as a man.

    I said he is sitting waiting on his payoff nothing else. He wont/hasn't walked/resigned as he knows he will not get a job anywhere near this level again. He will wait til the decision is taken out of his hands
