Neil Lennon **The Official Thread**

He doesnt act like a thug!! i think hes passionate cause he cares about the club. sometimes aye, his team choices i have questioned but he isnt a thug, and he just reacts because he is passionate, and to be honest, id challange refs if i thought the descions were wrong, if i was a manager.

 

Really no point talking to referees. Lennon just needs to ignore them from now on. When he came on the pitch to discuss the game with the referee, all he was rewarded with was a look and a point away.

Wrong setting, wrong decision.

Rise above the hate...as John Cena would say.

 

Well, rangers woulda been on 73 points and we would still be on 81...

 

It would be 8 points mate... Also I would be a bit scared of this teams and managements ability to handle matches under pressure if I am completely honest.

 

Who does?

 

Lenny is more a supporter than a manager his actions at the end were embarrassing time to go for him and i have backed him all season

 

We are * under pressure, but points deduction or not, I firmly believe we would have been crowned league champions.

A case of, we're not that bad.

Major improvements required in the summer.

Still, ILWT.

 

I'm not saying we wouldn't have dropped points between now and the end of the season, regardless of whether they had been placed into administration or not, but they will also drop points in the next four or five games.

For a kick off, we'll beat them at Paradise on the 29th of this month. I've never been more confident of it. That may be a bad thing, being overconfident heading into these games, but Hooper is back on form now, with three goals in his last two games, and he will run their pish defence ragged.

I think we'd have won this title comfortably, regardless.

 

Lennon overreacted and I think this will be blown out of proportion. I do think Lennon needs to cut this sort of stuff out, but I certainly think he has imporved a lot since taking the job. He is passionate and I love that, but last season he was in trouble a bit too much for me. He's worked on it this season and he's improved IMO. Everyone gets annoyed and overracts once in a while.

In fact, when we played Falkirk, I remember Pressley basically doing the same thing to the referee, and pushing Izagguire in the tunnel. There was hardly any mention of this in the papers, but I think that there will be over today since it's Lennon.

 

I see your point.

However, at what point do we start to point the finger at him for the teams failings? Or is he completely exempt from getting the dan mack or critisized because he is Neil Lennon?

 

Yeah u assume their form would have dipped anyway.They lost a lot of points after they were deducted 10. We may have lost more with the pressure and corrupt refrees ala last season.

Neil Lennon is turning this club into a shambles.What should be two trebles in a row is now 1 trophy from 6. The guy cant pick a team to save his life and his behaviour is embarassing.

 

Look where we were the day Lenny took over as caretaker and look at us now. He's completely turned things round since the Mowbray year. He's build a good young side and got us to 3 cup finals, took the league to the last day last year and lost out by 1 point and finished with 92 points ffs, and has brought the league home this season. People saying he should go? Just * off please. The things hes put up with since he joined us as a player, then as a coach and now as a manager are a disgrace. Death threats, assualts, bombs getting sent to him and getting attacked in the * dugout. Yet again its a * knee-* reaction on this forum. At the start of the season i seem to remember most people saying they would just take the league and no cups. Well, we're the champions if you dont remember.

 

100% agree.

 

So will all the * Lennon has been through win us trophies and take us forward. No it wont. I agree no human should have to go through that and there is no excuse.

However, there comes a point where you have to draw the line, we a worse team this season than last, in my opinion.

And if you are totally honest, Neil Lennons turn around has been boosted a little by the financial doping catch up of der hun.

 

the refs wont even let him into there rooms anymore....so i was not surprised he ran on to give that * abuse....dont condone it ...but i can see why

 

No it wont but winning the league and getting Champions League money will help us, which we have done this season.

I agree i think we were better last year but the POTY last year has been missing for more or less the full season and Kayal has missed a lot of the season as well. 2 of our best players right there.

The turn around was complete on the 28th December, the huns went into administration on the 14th February.

 

Rise above the State,,thats what he has to do ,,slan

 

Tactics were poor today, though he's not to blame for Ki's header etc...

 

What did Lenny do at the end? I must have missed it.

 

If he does not learn quickly that we need experience and how to tactically outsmart managers, we won't be playing any euro football after august.

It is as Simple as that. There is much more to team selection that picking the best players in training, you have to judge the team you are playing. Neil has been made to look tactically inept by Ally McCoist. Shields and Sergio this month.

Its literally, embarassing.
