    His actions are no different to any manager, be it wenger pulis or david moyes. Every manager does the same, everything lennon has done since setting foot in scotland has been scrutinised.

    One of the most prominent is Stuart Dougal but he has no reason to be bitter or have a personal dislike for Lennon or Celtic.:rolleyes:

    I remember the fourth official seemed to be giving as good as he got. Did the fourth official then not cross the line also?

    Seems to have been forgotten my the media and SFA, but no real surprise. IMO Lennon does need to focus his passion on the players that being said it was a penalty and he has every right to question the officials judgement and dare I say integrity.

    I don't think he does any less than what any other manager does, I think the 4th official in the Hearts game added to Lennys frustrations as I think he was way out of line in how he conducted himself.

    I don't think he has crossed the line whatever that line is supposed to be. The man takes abuse at a level that is just disgusting and which most of us if subjected to something similar would struggle to cope with.
    He obviously has gone after a few refs recently but in no way different to any other coach when bad decisions have gone against his team. But again he is Neil Lennon and he is Irish and now Celtic manager so he is subjected to abuse directed at him that other managers do not get subjected to. For instance just look at the bias in the photos of Lennon that have appeared on the bbc website during the ref scandal. They mostly show a furious Lennon with his face contorted with rage. You just cannot tell me those pictures were not deliberately picked out to show Lennon as the bad guy.

    Cross the line. Houston, smith, jeffries, levein, too name a few I have seen behave in the same way . Why is the focus on Lenny.

    Also Craig brown attacks a foreign coach and it is totally overlooked.
    Bias press me thinks

    Misleading headline. He says he may have crossed the line 1 or 2 times with no specific incident being highlighted.

    Yes he may have crossed the line but we will never know unless we are lip readers.

    The problem is that, for now, Lenny will be compared with Walter Smith who is one of the calmest managers (well to the camera anyway). There is no problem in showing your passion for the situation. Mowbray was way too passive. 99% of managers in the football world will be aggressive at times.

    Aye, he is so calm he doesn't even have to move his lips to talk! The auld fuckbag...he can go and sook a fart as far as im concerned!

    At least Neil is one of the few who remain passionate about the game, shows a bit of balls by just being himself....rather than conforming to the views of the hun rags!

    Aye, that's right....* Craig Brown stuck one on another gaffer's chin....was he called a 'Thug'? No chance!

    * the huns, * all huns, * the S.F.A....we are Celtic...no one likes us and we don't care!:47:
