    after managers around the world hear what has happened to neil lennon and his family, what would happen if he left.
    i dont think there are many managers out there who will be willing to take on an incredibly high pressure job where even their life could be at risk.
    the only manager i can think of who has enough of a tough mentality to manage here and who would actually want to is Roy Keane.
    Of course saying if lenny leaves is a very big if, but the amount of replacements we would be able to get is very limited.
    Is there anyone else out there who would
    1. want to manage celtic
    2. would be able to cope with the pressure
    and
    3. we would be able to get them (ie. from another club)

    Roy Keane was a great player * manager though but I know what your saying I think if Lenny leaves which he wont at the moment anyway, were going to find it tough to get another manager of decent quality.

    I don't think there would be many,Neil Lennon is an absoloute legend for sticking it out and not letting the intimidation get the better of him.The amount of respect I have for him can't be put into words.I don't even want to think about anyone else managing us just now.

    I feel that Neil will be the Ferguson or Wenger of Celtic.

    I feel if Neil can get over the initial bumps and threats he will manage us for many, many years to come

    Don't think it would happen with another manager, the huns just despise Lenny.

    His agent said he won't be leaving anyway. :50:

    I think if Lennon decided it was in his, and his family's, best interest to leave, the only person I would want to replace him would be a certain Mr. Ian Holloway.

    I see someone mentioning Roy Keane again.....* him!!!! Hw is a total * and a USELESS manager....no thank you:40:

    I dont see any problem attracting a top manager.NL has attracted the moronic over there because he does not back down and they hated him as a player also.Plus he is a catholic from NI and he will always get that kind of stick.What other of our managers have attracted such abuse?

    Lennon will stay, if he is forced to leave due to threats to his family, i dont want another manager, i dont want us to play in Scotland ever again. I would pull the plug on Scotland and let the SPL fall flat on its face

    I heard Slaven Billic would love to manage either Celtic or Rangers one day. He would take it in my opinion. All the threats Lenny gets are down to his creed and nationality.

    I feel the same way, if the SFA/ SPL and the authorities allowed our manager to walk because they failed to act on the threats to him, I think it would be the end for me with Scottish Football.

    Our club has a responsibility as well. I would like to see them coming out and attacking all areas that have it in for Neil.

    The media, even if it means blanking the red tops, or banishing them from Press Conferences. Same for TV and radio.

    The Police, for not doing enough to find perpetrators nor actually arresting the Huns who continue to break the law at Celtic Park instead if shiteing it from them.

    And lastly the ineffectual and impotent SFA and SPL who seem intent on hammering our manager yet doing nothing to support him with these threats on his life.
