    Really? He made 3 changes. One was to bring back Sammy, which I don't think anyone would have disagreed with. He brought in Ki for Forrest, who was injured, and Cha for Wilson, who has been * recently. What more could he have done? As I've already said, the only possible improvements I could think of would be to put Izzy and Commons in, which was never going to be a good idea given the amount of game time they've had this season, with their injury problems.
    Or maybe Ki should have been replaced with McGeough, Brown with McCourt and Stokes with Brozek? Should Mark Wilson have been brought back?

    No. Even though we've won the league this is as far as he can take us imo

    How is a man who does not lose the rag "pandering to a bunch of premadonnas". You're glad he doesn't act more dignified? What the * is wrong with you?

    Anyway with regards to his conduct I think he did * all wrong today, and in the immediate aftermath of last week I thought his interview was also spot on, but that's when I was really gutted to lose and not get the last minute penalty, I'm not so sure now. The only times I've really been disappointed with him were the first game at Tynecastle and the Scottish Cup replay last season.

    Cheers bud, I appreciate that, and I echo the sentiment. :50: I was just trying to say that Lennon behaved poorly and childish today, and it does not help the team or our clubs reputation. It is important to see the bad points as well as the many good points in his character, he can always improve as a manager and he should not rest on his laurels.

    You say "I would rather have a grown man as a manager than a moody teenager" and then contrast Lennon with McCoist. That to me sends a pretty obvious message...

    And if you're a winner, who cares how you act? You're a winner. Everyone else will try to find ways to bring you down, who cares about them? What trophy do you get for dignity?

    BTW yes I agree Lennon has to take some blame when we lose. He deserves cristism. But not abuse, especially not from his own fans.

    I don,t blame Lennon but would blame the majority of players , our defence are *, nothing but *, I,ve never rated Rogne ,goal or not today one goal does,nt change the fact that he is pace less as well as clueless. For * sake the Huns are second rate and we made them look good !, that just about sums up the game for me.

    Rogne is one of our best defenders! He may not have the physical strength but he reads the game well.

    Why is he now not allowed to criticise the ref (in a calm, well-mannered way I might add) after the shocker he had today. I would rather he said what he did than say "well done Callum Murray and his officials after doing their jobs on a difficult day". Seriously, why is Lenny the ONLY manager who cops this much flak for saying the refs got it wrong?
    And on the subject of MON (I love the guy, and support him in these claims), is this really acting with more dignity in his criticism of the ref?

    We're not talking about just any man. We're talking about Neil Lennon. He's been the way he is since I can remember, so by changing because some people don't like it all of a sudden would be pandering to them.

    Why is celebrating all our goals the same as blaming the ref everytime we lose?

    It isn't. Where am I saying Lennon should not be passionate?

    Passion is not going in a huff everytime he sees a decision go against us, or blaming everyone bar himself when we play crap. Or bottle it.

    If someone criticises the way our manager does something, or presents himself, it does not mean they 'hate' him, sounds a bit over-dramatic.

    Mate you are probably wasting your time. some people were just waiting on a blip so they can get tore into our manager.

    For whatever reason I don't know but it's painfully evident today.

    The man has won the league and we have people calling him a "*" "*" "*" "not up to the job" "lacking in class"

    there are even people saying he should be more like Sally ffs!

    there is a few things I would love to say about some folk but I wont because I'll get banned.

    Utterly embarrassing the way some are going on after today.

    I think after the dougie McDonald fiasco, the head of referees sending anti Catholic emails, employees talking of "anti Irish canteen culture" within the SFA he has every * right to mistrust the officials in theis * wee backwater.

    The decision to send off Cha was shocking, Whittaker was as reckless if not more so than Wanyama today and the huns fouled our players with impunity today.

    Well done Lenny for saying what most of us are thinking.

    never read so many * posts tbh.

    we lost the old firm game! wooo big deal,the title is as good as ours and we will get this soon yet you all * greet, they were more up for it for 2 resons.

    1-this would be the 1st time they would have lost 4 home games on the spin ever!
    2- do you really think that they wouldnt turn up to stop us winning the league on their patch?

    all this crap about lennon give yourselves a slap eh. ill wait untill its confirmed we are the champions. see what you say then.

    Think its fair to criticize lenny on 2 things today.
    1. Fat sally picked a more effective starting 11 from about 14 players that included some young boys. Lenny couldnt get it right with about 25 Internationals to pick from.
    2. Sally had the huns fired up to * and they were playing for pride. We had the chance to clinch a title at the * pit for the first time in half a century and we got completely outfought.
