Neil Lennon

Funny that. Was just speaking in the WhatsApp group there and his name has came up.

Is Eddie working again?

 

He deserves until the end of the season at least

 

No, it doesn’t. It’s not my job to recruit the manager.

But it’s clear to anyone paying attention than Lennon is getting very little out of this squad. Get over your love for the guy for a minute and be objective.

 

There’s a real problem here if we are honest.

Missing players for sure, but worryingly at no stage before the game today did I expect anything else.

if Griffiths and Ajeti are fit for the bench, then at least one has to start.

I actually sympathise with Klimala.

Elyounoussi clearly has a clause that means he has to play if fit - and he’s being stuffed in to the side when frankly he doesn’t suit the preferred formation.

Calmac got a pass mark - but again it was a case of the standard platitudes: got stuck in. Made himself available. Did the simple things well.

He’s a better player than that.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen anything much to speak about re Ntcham.

just dreadful today. “We’ve given away 2 poor goals and missed a great chance to equalise” doesn’t cut the the * mustard.

Neither does “3 main line strikers missing today”

We didn’t. 2 were on the bench - so should be free to play a minimum of a half each. Nor were we “decimated.”

They had Roofe and Aribo out today. We were missing Christie edouard and jullien.

it wasn’t ideal - but there was PLENTY there to work with.

There’s a lot of excuses in the initial post-match words, and little acceptance of blame - or what seems to be a real problem. We are in 2nd gear and look so so average.

Something will break / change in the next month. Either we click in to gear, or I sense a change will have to happen.

 

He’s not in charge of the defence.

 

Zero debate over this..

Their triangles. The way they counter. The way they defend as a unit or press..

They're so much more drilled than us..

We have better player's and a depth but under a different coach would be so much more fluid. We're lacking in so many departments and that comes from the clueless guy on the bench..

 

The ‘who do we bring in‘ thing never washed for me while Deila was here and doesn’t with Lennon.

 

Bye, Felicia.

 

The leaked team sheet got a mention.

 

We've lost 3 games this year be objective

 

Can't even apologise in his interview as it might seem as if he's taking responsibility,

Will always love Lennon but time to go

 

Do people seriously believe that there isn't a better manager currently available than Neil Lennon?

It would speak volumes about the club if we actually weren't able to identify any.

 

It just that football has moved on at a dramatic rate.

Everything in the modern game is about pressing high and absolutely elite fitness to keep doing it the full game.

Gerrard is clueless but his assistant know what the modern game is all about which is why you seem them consistently dominate us and put up a far better show of it in Europe.

We deserve everything we get by having him as our manager in 2020.

 

I don’t think we can replace him tbh. We’re stuck with Lennon now, it’s just a reality of the situation.

The thing about the huns bottling it is they will have learned from past mistakes. There’s only so many times you can rely on them slipping up before they stop doing it.

It’s much easier just to beat them, or at least hit a shot on target..

 

Based on what? Seriously?

The huns have completely outplayed us in the last 3 games. We’ve failed to score in the last two derbies at Celtic Park.

We’ve been knocked out of the CL qualifiers two years in a row by vastly inferior teams (on paper at least).

We’re playing stale, predictable football. Our top players are underperforming. We are brutal defensively.

Like many have said time and time again, if his name wasn’t Neil Lennon, not one single fan would be wanting to give him more time.

 

It's an argument that you can't win: if the manager is good, they will argue that he is unattainable; if the manager is attainable, they will argue that he is poor. Halfwits.

 

There probably is, would it be a risk to sack our successful manager and get someone else in absolutely.

 

My only hope is it’s not too late.

Im someone who wanted Lennon to get the job, and believe he deserved it after finishing off the treble, but i’m genuinely thinking his time here is up. We look completely lost.

 

if we drop points next week i think he'll walk, I'm just worried that means Kennedy takes over.

 

We’ve backed ourselves into a corner hiring Lennon full time. There’s no chance he leaves or gets let go until it’s too late.
