    Why can McCoist pick a team with tactics to pump us then ?

    That's hardly an appalling record. Do you not expect us to lose any games? You can look over any managers career and find losses.

    Doesn't take much when the team they are playing against doesn't turn up

    The manager buys, picks, controls and motivates the team. He has to take the majority of the blame for this.

    With all due respect if the players aren't already self-motivated for an old firm game they can all get to *.

    He doesn't control them, he buys players with his * budget and when they hit the field its up to them.

    He just doesnt learn from past mistakes and its a big worry,

    Starting sammy and not stokes.
    Starting loovens instead of mulgrew in defence.
    Playing mulgrew out wide when we had ledley and forrest on the bench.
    Using long ball tactics when were * hopeless in the air.
    Not having commons on the bench.
    And this zonal marking rubbish.

    All mistakes he made in todays game, sort it lenny.

    Yes he does but the team has to carry it onto the field. Lennon's not on the pitch so it's down to the players to go out there and win. I'm not saying that Lennon isn't blame-free BUT it's not all down to him.

    Hun FC have been pish all season so with them winning today does that mean Fat Sally is suddenly a tactical genius? I mean he had the same players that played against Maribor & Malmo and the league games that they luckily won against Motherwell and Dundee Utd.

    Our players never turned up today and even Sir Alex Ferguson would have struggled with what was going on out there today.

    I think a lot of people knew he would start Sammy. Which he could justify. So I wouldn't call that a mistake.

    I thought he would have started Mulgrew on the left. Which was pretty stupid.

    Lennon picks the players. He sees them fit to play in said important games.

    Lennon, and his assistants, take the majority of the blame for today.

    He needs to learn from his mistakes and fast .

    I think he can be a fantastic manager i just think this job here came too soon for him but i hope he can prove me wrong and go on and win the league.

    But if he fails to win the league i really think he will have to go .

    I seriously can't be arsed with another transition season. If he losses the league I want him to stay.

    not starting ledley was a joke

    starting samaras ahead of stokes was a joke

    moving mulgrew to LB when he was on a yellow and treading a thin line was a joke

    taking of el kaddouri was a joke..

    i honestly dont understand some if not most of his desicions...i for the life of me will never get what he sees in samaras, he is a pathetic excuse of a player...

    Starting sammy in any game to partner hooper is a mistake especially when stokes is on the bench.

    You know im a lennon fan too mate but this season his tactics and decisions are really trying my patience.

    The criticism coming his way is warranted ultimately the buck stops with him and he won't expect anything else it comes with the territory.

    However he couldn't account for Ki and Kayal going missing today. He got it wrong today tactically but far too early to be calling for his head.

    A sore one today but the huns don't have the depth of squad and we won't play that badly again.

    He'll get it right and in Lenny we still trust.:shamrock:

    He's not 'clueless'.
