    At the end of the day he picked a winning team and Brooney came up with the goods. Won the vital header that was saved into Griffiths shot. He stuck with Hazard who saved the penalties. He brought on Griffiths who scored. And he played Turnbull 'the bull' who played well. There for Lennon put out a winning team selection. And I think people should put down their grievances and just enjoy it.

    3/3 since the protests. 4 to go for Lenny. If we beat Rangers he's earned his right to continue. I sincerely hope he shows up all of those fence kicking savage bams that told him to get to * - so far so good he's making you look like mugs!

    The Cup final will give us a timely boost, let's see if we can get ourselves into a position to apply some pressure..

    Only if there's a seismic shift in him picking the right team & formation starting from tomorrow, that means a back four & two up top, something he's not done since he returned as manager.

    Ok to me it's been obvious since Ferencvaros that's he lost the confidence of the dressing room and going forward from then he wasn't the man!! I wanted him and thought he was the man to take us to the 10 but the Huns have seriously improved and we've gone backwards under the pressure!! Look like i was wrong!!!! I * hope not as i don't think he's going anywhere or certainly not until it's too late.

    BUT BUT BUT.....before i smile to myself again reading post after post of guys claiming i was right, i was right, i knew it, i knew it!!........have a * day off lads!!!

    Anyone remember his first game at Tynecastle.....i wonder if the same bed wetters that night saying he could blow it yet are the same characters that also say that he was gift wrapped it that year?? Did we not actually win it by a bigger margin than he was handed.....anyway that's not the point.

    I said it's been obvious since Ferencvaros but there were loud alarm bells after the league game last December against the orcs but i remember this place pretty confident after our buying in the summer.

    Mind you, after saying all that this has been on the board for the last few months now!!!

    You know yourself mate you’re having a good argument with a mate in the boozer and the Mrs or his Mrs comes in you tend to calm, should probably have said anyone, point a was getting across was if someone disagrees with you no matter how ludicrous the point it doesn’t make them a * or a * as a said agree with a lot of the guys points but if I didn’t agree a wouldn’t be calling him a * or a * if someone gets * off with him about, he always comes out with the people are far too sensitive pish, it’s just downright rude and ignorant and if he spoke about people like that for disagreeing with him he’d get a few sore faces

    It's great that we completed the quad, but honestly I'm still feeling pretty deflated in general, scraping it on penalties to a championship side was about the least convincing way to win we could have possibly managed. The game should have been over at half time but yet again we crumbled, it summed up the state of us this season and barely papers over the cracks, it's another game we've won in spite of Lennon not because of him, showed nothing to convince me that we've turned a corner or he's learned anything, it was just more of the same.

    We are at the point wer we need to put the knives away ,get behind the manager and team ,there has to be the right support going through this period , we ticked off another box , new history was created ,the focus is on the league and pegging them back while putting pressure on them as much as possible .
    Every game till orcdome is a cup final ,tick them off 1 at a time . If he does the job at ibrox then hopefully the fans will be back on board .

    You're spot on there - we won a dead game at home in the Europa league when we had already secured last place in the group, thrashed the mighty Kilmarnock 2-0 at home and beat championship Hearts on penalties after extra time.

    Oh the disgrace! Personally I'm staying indoors as I'm too ashamed to face anyone now that my opinion of Lennon as a manager has been so totally proven wrong.

    No sure 4-4-2 or a diamond or whatever is the way to go, continue with Turnbull and Soro and we're half way there.

    “He picked a winning team”. Well, he didn’t. The team he started with were drawing 2-2 until he made any subs. The game finished 2-2 in 90 mins. His changes resulted in a 3-3 draw after 120 mins.

    Us winning a penalty shootout doesn’t = him picking a winning team.

    He’s not making anyone look like a mug. Some amount of brain dead * on here. We just drew with a Championship team after being 2-0 and 3-2 up. If anything he’s further proving his critics right more than ever.

    Still think we’re leaking too many goals.

    Im done with him,imo leagues gone and lenny takes the majority if not all the blame.

    After to battling wins without brown lenny showed us his weakness as a manager again by bringing brown back and playing eddie in the final and we were a joke.

    I backed lenny at the start as every fan regardless of their opinions should do but as things have progressed he has shown us he is not the man for the job and there for i want him gone.

    This place will go into melt down if hun beat us and the truth is it shouldnt take a defeat by hun for him to go,its unacceptable for us to be so far behind giving the finance available compared to hun,on paper we are a better squad and on numerous times some on here have talked about how not one of their squad would be good enough for ours and yet look where we find ourselves.

    Outwith Sunday this has been a total disaster of a season, Lenny should've been gone long ago, instead we're still having to listen to the utter nonsense he's coming away with, our defence is a shambles and we just don't look like an organised team.


    All this * about the players being happy that he's still in charge, give us a break ffs, they look as if they canny wait tae see the back of him, a bit like auld dour face himself JK.

    Honda sorry to say this but you epitomise the sentence many of our fan base have adopted “accepting mediocrity “ sadly.

    Already too late, we cant spare a single game.
    We need to win the three Hun games and the three games in hand and match everything else the Huns do to win this thing.

    The cup final proved yet again he hasn't a clue and is unable to change anything.

    No chance we are winning the three Huns games. No chance are we able to win the three games in hand.
    We won't even win the three games between now and the 2nd (based on current form).

    The chance to change it, for me, has gone.

    Strachan lost four in a row to Oldco between March 07 and March 08.

    3 of them were at the Bigotdome.

    Lennon's had some absolute horror shows against Oldco, and his record against the new version isn't anything to write home about either.

    He's had 6 games against them since his return and he's been dominated in nearly every game, including two of the games we've won. That's how grim it is.
