    Baffling team selection and too stubborn to use subs even when it was blatantly obvious we needed it.

    He's made an absolute * of that.

    When you make the big decisions that Lennon has done at the start of this season: 1 up top to Kilmarnock - failing to change it and false 9s in the Champions League against mediocre outfits and they backfire, then you have to be held accountable.

    As excellent a player as Édouard is, we should not abandon our whole shape and system when he's out.

    The cold, hard reality is that we are wasteful in attack, soft in defence and it should have been sorted before now; we've had plenty warning.

    Those Lazio results looking flukier by the day.

    Honestly done with him. Never learns. This is far worse than Cluj, and I expect him to insult us further by claiming we played well.

    This may annoy some people but I really don't care.

    The man hasn't a clue and he doesn't learn from mistakes. Same * different year.

    We have bottled yet another game in Europe under him. Just not good enough at all.

    But but but Lazio..

    Honestly, see if he says anything along the lines of “I thought we played well”.

    He should be sacked after that, but who will we get instead? The desperate fact is, the board will not have planned for anything other than Lenny in charge. They are as tactically stagnant and slow as Lennon himself.

    A marriage made in *. All our domestic dominance is shown to be what it is against bang average European opposition every single year. Scottish fitbaw is pish - utter pish.

    So far this season we have looked rank * rotten. Also, * you Bolingoli for putting a spanner in the works this season.

    I don't even know why I am angry. I knew this would happen tonight. It's Groundhog Day - definition of insanity.

    Let him stay to try and win the league. After that he's got to go. That's an unacceptable loss.

    No over reaction here, simply this. He will always be a legend at the club, player and manager he's given us great times fair play to him.

    He is not good enough to be in charge of Celtic, absolutely miles off it.

    3 knock out games, Cluj, Kob, ferencvaros, lost all 3, these lot tonight are an SPL team. We should be beating all 3 with ease, he's been tactically out done in all 3. Tonight the players must also take some blame but thats mainly on him.

    We'v looked * in a 4231 since he took over, he changed to 352 last year and we looked good, he's changed back this year to a 4231 and we'v looked * woeful, yet he keeps playing it? It makes no sense literally no sense its as if he's picking players and just hoping because they're good they will go out and win us games. Not good enough, tin pot level manager.

    In a 4231, we leave our 3m striker who must be wondering what the * he has to do to start a game on the bench and start a CM up front.

    Forrest & Brown have been way off it for weeks, starts them both?

    Lennon should be allowed to take a crack at the league this season as sacking him would be to disruptive, but at the end of the season unless we go mental in Europa and win it he should be thanked for his efforts and told to pack his bags. Not good enough. Miles off it.

    Lennon really needs to be challenged and questioned following that result.

    He has once again made the same mistakes. Playing players out of position and not being able to manage a game.

    Tonight was a carbon copy of Cluj and Copenhagen.

    It’s not good enough from a Celtic Manager. I’ve got serious concerns about his ability to lead us to the 10.

    Genuinely don't even think is a knee * reaction I would hunt him before it's too late.

    Swear on my weans lives he should be sacked on the spot for that..

    2 year's on the spin we've gone out to average but well organised side's..

    We don't even have the excuse of a side being ahead of us in pre season as they were behind us. Another team from a poor league and fraction of our budget..

    They were out on their feet by 40 minute's and every single supporter was screaming for a striker on at 1 each to finish off one of the chances we were creating and he made no a single change. Kept Broony on who was creating fuckall..

    Didn't start witg a striker but had option's on the bench..

    Tactically he's been laughable this season and today was an utter disgrace of a result going out like that and he sat and done fuckall. No a single thing until they scored the winner..

    Im sickened by him tonight. Sickened..

    This is what comes off the back of the ultimate high after the treble treble. Hiring a man in the showers at Hampden. He is not good enough, simple as that. He is our level though now unfortunately. He has learned absolutely * all from his first tenure. * all. No plan b, stifling creativity and ostracising players like Rogic and shoehorning his pals in to play * week in week out.

    Personally i would like to see him shown the door but it won't happen. Him Kennedy and Strachan look absolutely clueless sitting on the bench. 10 in a row is in serious doubt. I honestly feel if we win it, it'll be in spite of Lennon, not because of him. Shambles.

    Two years in a row against Cluj and Ferencvaros his team selection and tactics have cost us.

    From McGregor at left back, to no striker tonight.

    I love the guy, he’s one of my heroes, but I wouldn’t care if he walked tomorrow.

    Why the * did he start with Christie up top ? Why wait so long before bringing one striker on ?
    Total embarrassment.

    Never, ever learns a * thing. He’s a Hibs level manager and the only reason he’s here is because the club sorely lacks ambition and he’s a yes man.

    Two seasons in a row he’s been a * disgrace in the qualifiers, against teams we should be beating comfortably.

    Get him out before he * the 10 as well.
