    It's been obvious Lennon has disliked Sutton for a while, probably dating back to when the former was calling for change during the Covid season. Lennon and his small mindedness would have taken that as a betrayal or something. I mean the guy still isn't accepting that any of that season was his fault. He's an idiot.

    Him and Boyd came across unprofessional as * today. Although I don't understand Sutton's unwavering support of Rodgers either. He's a poor manager and a massive * problem. Done at any half decent level.

    He isn’t a poor manager. That’s nonsense.

    “Boydy”..

    The way they attempted to gang up on Sutton is pathetic and Lennon’s stupid wee dig and laugh at the end is so,so poor from him.

    I still respect what he done at the club and at his best as a player/manager it was brilliant but that today was embarrassing - from his defence of the reptilian-soon-to-be-gone board to the wee pals act with Kris Boyd.

    Pass the * sick bucket.

    He's so unlikeable these days zero accountability for the covid season and just constantly brown noses the board.

    Boyd is thick as * as well.

    He might not be a poor manager but he’s not a good one either.

    Look at his exploits outside of us and look where he is now. He got the Celtic job at the perfect time after Mowbray, we had a decent squad to build off and the Huns were on their way to Administration.

    Some ex players say he was good, but it’s more his man management and personality they mention.

    If he came back for a 3rd stint I honestly don’t know what I’d do, I think I’d have to chuck football all together.

    I just think that summer window was such and open and shut case that anyone trying to defend it or the board are giving up their credibility.

    I mean there’s people on here that have defended the board. I myself gave Nicholson the benefit of the doubt in January, but I feel all of us now are in strong agreement there has to be significant change.

    My biggest disappointment is that people are losing focus on the board and turning on Rodgers. As someone who’s never been a Rodgers fan, it’s classic divide and conquer. Focus on the board, forget Rodgers exists. Deal with him later.

    He's talking as though he's after the job.
    Probably thinks he owes his loyalty to Lawwell after the chat in the shower.

    The level of delusion he displays regularly would tell me he probably does think he’s got a shot at the job.

    Thankfully there’s less than zero chance now unless the Board want the fans to burn Parkheid to the ground. Which we would.

    He might not even be after the manager's position. There's a lot of jobs for the bhoys at Parkhead and they don't seem to require much by way of actual work.

    It sounds like he’s on the payroll already. Board don’t have the balls to front up and defend their stupidity themselves so instead they’ll enlist Lennon who’s in the media as a pundit to shill on their behalf. It’s exactly the sort of nonsense that Lawwell and co. spend time and energy on instead of doing their actual jobs sourcing quality players and looking after the academy and the stadium.

    He is a poor manager.

    He’s struggling with Dunfermline in the Scottish Championship after being sacked by clubs in Cyprus and Romania.

    A spotty record at Celtic, and a mostly good time at Hibs (albeit one season was in the Championship). Aside from that, his CV is pretty *.

    6-10 years ago you’d say he was a decent manager. Not so much now.

    The worst bit was straight after this clip. * 'Boydy' and slagging Sutton saying he was stuttering..

    Sickened me. *..

    Lennon is nothing but a puppet for his masters.

    When you realise he was never the Celtic man he claims to be, you’ll stop taking an interest in whatever * comes out of his mouth.

    Fair play to Sutton for keeping his composure - takes a lot when you’ve got two idiots coming for you.

    Anyone from Lurgan will tell you that Lennon grew up a Liverpool fan, and, in the words of someone that I know who grew up with him, 'you'll never meet a more self-involved person in your life'.

    He disgraced himself on Sky Sports yesterday. Sitting there at Tynecastle in his maroon jumper, still half-* from the night before, mocking Chris Sutton (who is clearly worried about what's happening at the club) with his jakey Hun mate Boyd, and not being particularly respectful to BR either.

    As someone above said, if he somehow gets the gig again, I'll lose my * mind.

    Read it back mate, it was regarding Rodgers. Lennon is a poor manager, I’d agree.

    His * must be jealous of all the * that comes out of his mouth.

    I had turned off right at full time, so hadnt seen this. Cannot believe the state of Lennon there. Acting like a drunk with a chip on his shoulder.
