Lennon not happy about Gerrard's comments about being top of the league

[uneasydaz]

NEIL LENNON has hit back at Steven Gerrard after the Rangers gaffer said his side deserved to be top of the Scottish Premiership.

The Celtic boss took issue with his Old Firm rival’s remarks in the build-up to his team’s home game against Ross County today

The Light Blues are two points clear of the reigning champions following the Hoops’ defeat to Livingston and their thrashing of Hamilton before the international break.

Asked about Gerrard’s comments by a BBC Sportsound reporter, Lennon said: “I don’t know where that comes from.

“Yeah I’d quibble with that. We’ve had five away games and three at home.

“I’m always going to quibble with a comment like that.”

Gerrard and Gers striker Alfredo Morelos were yesterday named manager and player of the month for September.

The Liverpool legend said: “We are under no illusions how tough it will be to stay there.

“We have to embrace the pressure and aim to stay there, but it’s always nice to sit top.

“We certainly deserve to be there.”

F.ucking orc.

 

[Godrup99]

Who's won more points dickhead?

 

[YoungGer97]

Shut up you absolute munter cunt

 

[NoSurrenderDavieWeir]

They are amazingly rattled! Even when SG went deliberately out his way to publicly downplay the significance of top spot this early in the season TLB can’t control himself. Beautiful!

Has anyone ever heard a manager use the number of home/away games played as an excuse before?!

 

[Its-Sebo]

“I don’t know where that comes from."

Ehhh 2 points in front, 6 goals better off in GD and only dropped points in 1 of 8 games? Possibly something to do with that ya black-toothed tramp.

 

[Commentator]

Wind him up and off he goes. A fanny.

 

[Brick_Top]

Lennon taking offence at something Rangers related. Well there’s a surprise.

 

[longtimedead]

Back under the bridge Neil.

 

[cooprfc]

The league table never lies.

Celtic, however, do.

 

[buffalosoldier]

Christ almighty.

 

[Antsy]

His fragile wee ego can't take any sort of negativity towards him or his team. Hopefully the pressure makes him explode.

 

[dunn1872]

So is he saying the team with the most amount of points doesn't deserve to be top?

 

[DoubleWhopper]

He's absolute poison. This is the man some were calling "dignified" a few weeks ago.

 

[Elaine]

We welcome the chase, would love Ross county to take something today would really put cat amongst the pigeons.
We’re top on merit, wether we stay there who knows but we deserve to be top.

 

[sandbankbear]

Really. Unbelievable we have won more points. Ffs are we not allowed to be top of the league now.

 

[Forzabear1872]

Their fear is palpable. Lovely.

 

[jaws73]

This fella's really goin' to crack as the pressure mounts as many predicted he would. The early signs are there.

[yosser hughes]

shut the f@ck up minger,we gave you 3 points of a start and we have still overtaken you,

 

[squaddie-bear]

Getting into his head already - we are only 2 points ahead before todays game and he is already freaking out

 

[hhss]

That manky wee prick will use anything, however trivial, to try and fire up his players.

 

[Steve_french]

The goal posts move depending on the mentally challengeds position in the league. Lenny mentioned the amount of away games they've played and that apparently is an acceptable excuse, however when we used the away game excuse at the beginning of last season we got chopped down for blaming a fixture list. Suck it in lennon and shut your gub.

 

[LOL 133]

He never talks about other teams, or so he said.

 

[Mr Aqua]

Might come from the fact we're two points ahead and 6 goals infront, deluded thick lady's front bottom.

[oldgregg]

Its laughably easy to bait Lennon. He'd fly off the handle if an empty crisp packet blew past him a gentle breeze.

 

[Blues and Royals]

He’s a bigot who should just shut the f*ck up and stop embarrassing himself.

 

[Truffle Shuffle]

Quibble away you yellow teethed alkie tosspot.

Quib = a petty objection.
Quibble is a play on words on that.

Yeah you are petty, you fat thick ginger twat.

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

Meltdown already in progress I see

 

[The hunter2]

Seems to be alot of people at celtic that "quibble" with the truth

 

[dooman42]

If we open up a decent lead that poor excuse of a human being will top himself or end up in a straight jacket any one of those will do this Bear

 

[47blue]

The Rattlers are Rattled.

 

[Morelos20]

Quibble wibble diddly dibble

 

[Mexi]

A treble treble, chasing 9 in a row,.and they're crying about away games

If we had beaten them, they would have imploded by now. It's just going to take a little longer

 

[insanicdrunk]

They are amazingly rattled! Even when SG went deliberately out his way to publicly downplay the significance of top spot this early in the season TLB can’t control himself. Beautiful!

Has anyone ever heard a manager use the number of home/away games played as an excuse before?!

This!! Why the fck would you go 'after' that point? It is so minor, of course we deserve it, we have more points.

TLB is feeling a wee bit of pressure I think. If we are still top by tonight that will ramp right up.

Would set us up nicely for tomorrow!

 

[Ubik]

what an utter fanny

 

[Gazzaflag]

Need to keep the pressure on this cretin, he is already starting to show cracks.

 

[Div1872]

He’s just a wee angry ned with zero etiquette or professionalism

Phuck you Lennon

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

If Gerrard sat and said we deserve to be top if we were in the mentally challengeds position he would get slaughtered

 

[Vote For Pedro]

It’s pretty clear whoever is on top of the league is there on merit as they’ve accumulated mote points and probably victories than the rest! This is the beginning of Lennon losing the plot, moaning about away games that would have been won last season! Long may it continue! Heads down, work hard and 3 points each game Rangers!

 

[davyloyal]

Quibble is not too far away from wibble. Just saying.

 

[Ruben Sosa]

Gerrard will be astounded at that level of gobshitery.

mentally challengeds like Lennon take stupid and bitter to a level not seen elsewhere.

 

[Blues and Royals]

Only an inadequate fool could get upset by such innocuous comments.

 

[petepoto]

Their win over us at Ibrox has lulled them into them thinking they are better than they are. That big diddy Julien thinks he is the dogs nuts since it too.

Good.

 

[Mark-Penny]

Simple reply would have been “well, you get three points for a win”

 

[Vallance]

Quibble is not too far away from wibble. Just saying.

He's going for the Quibble Quibble.

 

[RenfrewBear72]

He's only a jobby toothed orc

It's called pressure and we need to rack it up big style
