    We've got no chance of landing Moyes or Coyle, they would probably take a job in the championship rather than come here.

    Financial restrictions have reduced our chances of landing a top manager.

    Soaring rhetoric is for story books. The man's sentiments will not win us titles, unfortunately.

    iv been consistently saying he wasn't the man

    am i happy about that? of course not. he's signed some good players also

    the defence, and * about with a winning team constantly has cost him

    when was the last time he played the same team 3 games in a row?

    also,some of you are extremely fickle btw, having all these lennon avatars and slagging him rotten

    Last season we lost the league by a point, won the SC and amassed a very healthy points tally, what this did was buy Lenny another season.


    Fat sally is the rookie this time not Lenny, despite this the same mistakes are still being made, it could be that last season was as good as it gets under Lenny, it can be a fine line between success and failure .........

    I'll have some of what you are smoking.
    Aye if Rangers go into administration and take the ten point hammering. Even then I think we would struggle with this mob.

    Who would actually take the job? Lennys built a team on freebies and cheap buys not his fault its the boards with their lack of investment imo

    Exactly :50: That's whats keeping me going, of course with a ten point reduction for them paired with our current form its still far from decided but hopefully they will have to sell a fair chunk of their squad.

    We were linked with him before, mate. He's kinda like the antithesis of Lenny - a tactician as opposed to somebody who's all heart.

    He moved up through the ranks in management before landing the Copenhagen job. We met his mob before. They were a bit of a nuisance for the bigger teams in the CL if I recall. Had a very loyal following there. Won 5 titles in 6 seasons.

    He's now at FC Koln in the Bundesliga. Dunno what they are like financially or anything, but it's not as if they are Bayern.

    I seem to remember him being linked with the Norway job, for the upcoming Euros but it hasn't come to anything.

    To me, that could be a really shrewd move by the board if worst comes and Lenny is forced to step down/is removed!

    For me the answer is no. I still suppport Neil Lennon. This is the first time since he has taken charge that he has really got himself on the ropes. Now he has to take some blame. For example not starting Ledley in the recent huns game or why he ever starts anybody other then Stokes alongside Hooper. But this season we really have been hit very hard with injuries to most of our key players. We simply haven't had a settled side all season unlike the second half of last season.
    Having said all that Neil Lennon will know that he has a real crisis on his hands after todays game and with where things are right now overall. I think though he will find a way out of this hole we are in and come out on top.

    If Rangers get a 10 point deduction and win the league, no matter what happens in the future Celtic would never be able to live that down. If you assume Celtic win the game in hand we are 7 points behind with only 9 available Old Firm points. Celtic are more likely to drop points to the others than Rangers. Get Lennon to *, 3 losses in 9 games is unacceptable. League's over now so it's imperative that we stop 5 in a row.

    I really don't understand this attitude to be honest, of course its a major challenge being this far behind but there's so many games left to play and so much uncertainty concerning the financial situation of rangers that I feel it's far too early to throw in the towel just yet.

    There's been uncertainty around Rangers financial situation for 3 years now but who is it that's on course for 4 in a row? Plenty more football to be played? Yes, plenty more times for Celtic to make a * of it. Rangers have lost 2 out of 30 points, Celtic have lost 9 out of 27. A team like Celtic should barely lose 3 games a season never mind 3 out of 9 games. This lot will not win the league and Lennon should not have been given the job.

    One more loss and Hearts and St Johnstone will be equalling us.

    Yes there has been uncertainty for a while but as far as I am aware the tax case in December could be disastrous for them if they lose. Yes our form in the league has been very poor but I feel we have enough about us to turn it around. With kayal and ledley in the middle I genuinely believe we are stronger than any team in the league. Also if we keep within touching distance through January then we are due a massive boost with the return of izzy and hopefully rangers will be forced to sell players like jelavic.

    There are far too many unpredictable outcomes in this season for me to decide that it's over just yet.

    Gotta love how we have to prey for a £50million tax bill to * Rangers because Celtic can't. Rangers have beaten the team above us in the league and took points from the other teams that have beaten Celtic. They have also took full points from the other teams who sometimes have a go against them: Aberdeen, Hibs and Dundee UTD. I really can't see where the points are going to be made up. There's no fight in this Celtic team so I really can't see them winning all 3 of the remaining Old Firm games.
