    That's the thing, Lennon doesn't follow blindly. He knows exactly what he's doing and what Lawwell is all about. Lennons loyalty is to himself and his pay packet and he knows the only way he's getting that is from Celtic. Lawwell completely owns him now

    Meaning?
    Yet At.Madrid, AC Milan, Juventus, Inter, Bayern, Dortmund, ajax....etc are coping fine?

    Not sure if you're meaning that the lack of fans and Covid is the excuse or not, or just the general backing of boards. Either way none of those clubs are on a run of 2 in 12

    The clubs values are one thing. Allowing them to dictate who you have in the dugout is another. I couldn’t give a * if our manager was housing a thousand impoverished refugees and orchestrating civil rights marches, if he isn’t getting results on the pitch he has to go. That’s a garbage excuse anyway, are you telling me that Lawwell and Desmond, in their heart of hearts, are keeping Lenny in a job because of potential mental health issues, and not because they’re too tight fisted to pay him off? They’re damaging his mental health more by keeping him in a job that he is monumentally * up.

    Anything that promotes or insinuates violence is * moronic.

    Honest to * man this club. Peaceful protest 10 days ago deflected by 1 guy throwing a fence. Peaceful protests at the weekend deflected by a few breaking police lines to get to the bus. People put up banners literally could not be anymore peaceful deflected by 1 banner that rightly or wrongly is a clear reference to the 90s.

    What is he thinking does he genuinely believe there is a hit out on Lawwell ? " A dangerous narrative" away and don't talk pish

    I’d have to agree with him here. ‘Shoot the board’, just * stupid. They guys who made that banner were probably the same morons filmed singing that song about Rodgers when we were at Tyncastle the day after he left. I agree with the banners as a whole, but any of them that insinuate violence need to go.

    Never would I have thought that Neil * Lennon would be a snowflake *.


    Seemingly the term "metaphor" is completely * lost on people.

    It was not shoot lawwell or shoot Desmond etc, it was a metaphorical shoot the board, as in kill this board off, not as individuals, as a governing group on the club.

    If that needs explained to folk, then really the real world isn't for you.

    If you believe that banner was actually insinuating violence, maybe take a wee step back. Neil included

    Surely, “sack the board”, “get rid of the board” or “get the board to *” would suffice then no? Metaphor or not, it’s a stupid choice of words.

    You can be arrested and charged for incitement ...

    Not sure about ‘insinuation’ .. courts would be rather busy if it were the case.


    insinuate

    /ɪnˈsɪnjʊeɪt/

    verb
    1. 1.
      suggest or hint (something bad) in an indirect and unpleasant way.
      "he was insinuating that Lenny had no management skills."

      incite
      /ɪnˈsʌɪt/

      verb
      1. encourage or stir up (violent or unlawful behaviour).
        "they conspired to incite riots outside Celtic Park."

    You can see in about 5 years he’ll be doing an interview somewhere and he’ll give it “I didn’t want it to end the way it did, it was regrettable, but I truly thought I could turn it around”.

    Not only is he useless with the players he’s actually doing Lawwell’s bidding, he should see aswell as us that he’s in this position because of the * he’s sticking up for.
