    Lennon going would be pointless if the * above him don't follow, we should be be doing so much better for the size of club we are the fact the huns got further in Europe last season than us should have been a wake up call.

    Unfair to John Kennedy tbh he doesn’t pick the team football is very physiological in no way has that team trained during the week for no striker upfront ...... to then be told hey guys here the line up players would start to panic wondering what the * then notice star man out the team can be only one reason and it’s no injury they would know that aswell ..... Lennon answer in the post conference confirms that for me ...... crystal ball says board have had an offer and don’t want him to play fair enough what isn’t alright is for that * to then Play no striker up front in protest its the only thing that makes sense because klimala was fit

    In all honestly I think it’s up in the air as is. The ramifications after this lose will be massive.

    Nah, not for me.

    You've got to give Klimala a chance first. He worked his * off, while Griff * about.

    Imagine you're Klimala and a club has paid £3.5m for your services, you graft like *, bide your time, all other strikers are unavailable or unfit and your manager picks a midfielder to play ahead of you. It's a slap in the face that basically says "I don't have faith in you"

    I wish Lenny hadn't said anything about players who want to leave - it's just going to lead to witch-hunting.

    Mind you, it was a VERY un-Lenny like thing to say, so I guess he must be pretty *-off with whoever he was referring to.

    Not a good night. :-(

    I actually think he means Christie he’s the one in signing talks and his performances have been * since that came out and his father talking about epl very similar to ajer in that regard if any one needs to go though it’s Lennon himself

    Nights like this are bred out of the absolute refusal to blood players and give fringe players game time when we are * 4 nil up at home in an spl match.

    Have to say I agree but sometimes basic defending really does become a major issue with our back line as well. Ajer and Jullien try to play like VVD. In SPFL v Hamilton thats fine. Europe, Nope. Lennon and Kennedy have to get them back to basics. Kennedy was a no nonsense CB, I cant understand why we cant get the CB partnership right with him overlooking it.

    One thing I will say in fairness to Lenny, hes working without his usual backroom staff. I bet he would have chose Gary Parker to come back over Strachan.

    Maybe he is trying to take the heat off himself, but I think it’s backfired.

    I can’t believe what he has disclosed.

    If what he's saying is true then no wonder players want to leave, putting up with this idiot and his insane team sheets and tactical decisions and that's not to mention the fact that he picks his pals constantly. As good as Brown and Forrest have been over the years we're talking about a CDM who spends most of his time talking * to the opposition players and a winger who can't put in a decent cross on a consistent basis, they need to be dropped.

    To not play a striker is unforgivable, imagine if your Klimala or Ajeti seeing that team sheet.

    Lennon is a dinosaur when it comes to management, old school ideas of throwing 11 players on the park and letting them sort it out belong in the 50's. We need to move on, thanks for the service Lennon but it's time to get a forward thinking manager in place with their own coaching staff.

    Swipe a Ntcham maybe?

    Its fair enough really. Looking for a reacton from players. I'd be telling them they've * all chance of a move if they expect to turn up and win like that. Make them earn their move or sell them to a lower club.

    No player is bigger than the club.

    It really is no surprise. The players don't even look fit but that's no surprise given how much of a goon Lennon is turning into.

    This is a manager who would quite happily put fast food on the menu to keep squad camaraderie high, and gives players numerous undeserved days off.

    It simply creates a culture at the club that stinks of unprofessionalism. How is it that in England, poor diet and fitness was rectified nearly a quarter of a century ago with Arsene Wenger. He banned ketchup for * sake and that was readily accepted, but here we are at Celtic with players acting like its the 1970s.

    Scottish football culture stinks, and it's lack of professionalism and luddite attitudes is headed by Celtic and Neil Lennon.
