Ally reckons there could be an announcement regarding Lennon “any minute” according to Brazil

[SDF]

For season ticket uptakes you'd think they'd need to act pretty soon, and as you say, promise of better things to come in the summer.

Their rebuild is probably going to be the biggest they have undertaken in 25 years and they need to get it right, our infrastructure at the moment could bear fruit for a few years if we continue our strategy.

They always knew it was coming this preseason but thought they would do it on the glorious backdrop of the tainted 10. As long as that was in the bag then the ST's would be bought and a bedding in process for a new football regime would be accepted.

The meltdown we have seen is beyond our wildest dreams and now Celtic are stuck with a toxic manager, a half disinterested squad with plummeting values and a revolting fan base threatening to boycott. It is absolutely glorious.

This is their biggest managerial decision since O'Neill.

If they get this wrong it could be us leaving them in the distance.

 

[bigy]

The crazy things are:

1 - Lennon hasn't lost a league game this season to anyone other than us. The 7 draws have been his downfall but it wouldn't actually have taken much for the league to have been much closer.

2 - Since the 'socially distanced gathering' outside Sharkheid when the hordes were calling for Lennon to go, Celtic have played nine - and of those they've drawn four and lost one in the league (albeit three of the draws were post Dubai). Had they made the change and got a bit of a bounce then the league would be much closer.

It's no wonder their fans are going mental.

 

[Bobans27]

They need to give him a new contract

Absolutely.

It’s blatant anti Irish bigotry the way they’ve treated him so far in 2021. Abhorrent.

 

[Johansen]

Wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't punted but he should be let go for his own good, after the last few days it will only get worse. Eventually it goes past being amusing.

It goes past amusing only when he's gone. The man brings every bit of criticism on himself with his attitude to our club and fans, he's an ignorant individual with no respect for any other person at other clubs or indeed the general public as can be seen with his attitude regarding the Dubai trip.

As long as he's there I for one will stay amused, if he's got underlying problems such as depression then he shouldn't be in such a high profile job that has the capacity to exacerbate that condition. This situation is all down to Lennon himself, if the pressure is too much then he has the option to resign, at the moment that hasn't happened so as long as he keeps up the incompetence I'll keep laughing

 

[Alex Venters]

I doubt it unless it is Alloa. I am sure that all these guys on radio that openly call him Neil have him sussed as toxic.

Queens Park.

 

[47blue]

Can’t surely be suggesting a PLC have failed to make an announcement to the stock exchange about a massive management change that could have share price implications.
That would be illegal.

I will take your word for that. Good news if that's the case.

 

[Struths Canary]

We are all Neic Lennon.

If its Neic then it has to be Cennon as well surely

 

[Bear all]

I’m struggling to see how this could ‘ go past being amusing’ .. Enjoy every minute of their and TLB’s torturous misery the scum are wallowing in !

Exactly mate I would never tire taking enjoyment out of watching Lennon in absolute misery never.

 

[jtc]

They need to give him a new contract

Definitely.After 2 historic draws v the team in form ATM a 18 year contract would be the least the lad could expect

 

[BentleyBear]

No imo.
It will always be one year, unless they give him notice or he does.
Then it starts reducing.

It looks to me like he's already been told he's not getting another contract and is working his notice just now. How else do we explain his outbursts n what looks like lack of input into his role, maybe trying to force their hand into paying him outjust now without the need to work the remainder of his 12 months notice?

Only, maybe they can't pay him out just now as they can't find anyone to take the role on?

 

[The DazzleGer]

Jackson has gone both barrels at him this morning.

That would suggest Lennon and Lawwell are at odds as no way Jackson types that without the green light.

I thought Jackson was barred ?
Sorry if I'm behind the times but I dont read the papers ?

 

[Captain_Sticky]

What odds will I get on Neic being the next Aberdeen manager? I fancy a flutter.

 

[jabwatp]

He must be gone.

‘review in January’.

Lose-Draw-Draw-Draw on four January games. Bye bye.

There will still be zoomers among the mhanky support who think he should win manager of the month with that form!!

The 7 draws have been arguably better for us. 7 draws is clearly 7 points. Out of those 7 games had they won 3 of them and lost 4 they would be 2 points closer than they are. Only way it would have been better is had they lost 5 or more of those 7 games - don’t get me wrong losing all 7 would have been amazing,

 

[Dalai Lammers]

Neic to leave at the end of the season is my guess (hope)

 

[Maccersblue]

Tom Boyd/Peter Grant dream team?

It’s no even a good dream team.

 

[jtc]

He must be gone.

‘review in January’.

Lose-Draw-Draw-Draw on four January games. Bye bye.

You can't sack a bloke on a unbeaten 3 game run.its 4 really as for 21 minutes they were better than Rangers so that counts as at least a draw

 

[Blaze Of Glory]

It's also possible that the 12 months has already been triggered and they're getting their pound of flesh as he works his notice. If he's been told he's in role until the end of the season then that gives him the freedom to go against Lawell in public as he has nothing more to lose.

 

[devilman]

Sacking him would be such a shame, well, for us and the rest of Scottish football it would be.

 

[blue diesel]

New manger announced when s/t renewal
If he goes now or not
Bitter lemon is history now
"Lets go" an have a jolly

 

[50delboy50]

Please give him a vote of confidence, I would. He must be front and Centre for what’s to come.

 

[JMCK]

Wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't punted but he should be let go for his own good, after the last few days it will only get worse. Eventually it goes past being amusing.

Excellent point; football gets very unpleasant at this stage, especially at the top. I agree, it has gone beyond the point of entertainment.

 

[Johansen]

What odds will I get on Neic being the next Aberdeen manager? I fancy a flutter.

I don't think that Dave Cormack would entertain him he's that toxic

 

[giogaddi]

I thought Jackson was barred ?
Sorry if I'm behind the times but I dont read the papers ?

Jackson is Lawwell's propagandist in chief.

 

[jtc]

Aye, I know that, but somebody needs a word with him before he completely implodes. I have no care for the man but somebody will.

The lad needs to see himself he has a problem before anyone else can help him

 

[BertyYarder]

Kennedy is undocking his nose from its hanger as we speak. Very bravely waiting for his call.

 

[Calvinist]

1 - Lennon hasn't lost a league game this season to anyone other than us. The 7 draws have been his downfall but it wouldn't actually have taken much for the league to have been much closer.

I look at it differently . Celtic have benefitted massively from poor officiating , having been given dodgy penalties , offside goals overlooked and opposition players sent off . Add in theyve carried luck in a lot of games where opposition teams have blown the chance to win or draw more games against them .

Imo Celtic are very lucky to be only 20 points behind

 

[TNT]

Read somthing yesterday sayin they have to pay him for everything he's due not sure how accurate but it mentioned they would have to pay him a lot of bonuses too! I know nothing about thier finances but my guess is they're skint after furloughing their u18s! hopfully they can't afford to sack him and we some more car park madness

The war chest will have took a tanking with no Champions League money - again, no big summer sale like Tierney or van Dijk or Dembele.

Their transfer business last summer has to come into play too. Klimala, Ajeti, Greek tragedy. There's a lot of money for failure. Plus there's super Shane Duffy.

Not just the cost of getting rid of the current staff - but, chances are a new manager will want their own staff too.

 

[UncleD]

I don’t know how genuine it is but that’s what Brazil said on talk sport

Extradition

 

[Tony75tfc]

Be a bit harsh to sack him hes unbeaten since coming back from dubai i think hes doing a great job

 

[insanicdrunk]

But harsh sacking him now when he is unbeaten since Dubai

 

[TN8]

You can't sack a bloke on a unbeaten 3 game run.its 4 really as for 21 minutes they were better than Rangers so that counts as at least a draw

Surely it was still a 0-0 draw anyway because they didn't concede any goals that day apart from one?

 

[Bear all]

they will attack the media and use the "mental health" card for him..

" Over the last week, the media have launched a disgraceful attack on our manager Neil Lennon, a man that has spoken bravely and honestly on his issues with mental health. We would ask all that have behaved in this way and bullied our manager to look at their behaviour. It's for these reasons that Neil will be stepping down from his post with immediate effect".

I think it will be along those lines...

Just look at Swinneys statement yesterday by adding in a disclaimer that he has no ill towards Neil Lennon that’s what we are dealing with here that the Deputy First Minister has to cover his arse.

 

[Slipster]

Don't get me wrong, I hate the lady's front bottom but he's teetering on the edge of a mental breakdown imo. Tears and pain are enjoyable but not so keen to watch the ramblings of a man on the edge of sanity.

I’d like to think of myself as a fairly compassionate person, I draw the line with TLB, hatred of us, oozes out of every pore of that man, he’s getting his just desserts in this case I’m afraid .

 

[Anoldranger]

I think I must be one of the very few on here who does not give a flying F—k if he goes if he stays if he drinks himself into oblivion if he has a square go with Andy Walker in the middle of George Square I really don’t care. He’s very entertaining at his press conferences he speaks so well I will miss that if he is removed

 

[jtc]

The 7 draws have been arguably better for us. 7 draws is clearly 7 points. Out of those 7 games had they won 3 of them and lost 4 they would be 2 points closer than they are. Only way it would have been better is had they lost 5 or more of those 7 games - don’t get me wrong losing all 7 would have been amazing,

Draws are great because it makes the trigger man dither . Especially if the team have played well for 21mimutes.

 

[AdiGaz]

There’s no chance he will be the manager for their next game.

That result last night right after him making a total cûnt of himself and the club on Monday will be the final straw.

It must be surely

I hope he stays

If true, candle stores across the country will need to be redesignated as essential and the Shark Emporium will need to unfurlough staff.

They are mental ay they.if you encountered anyone like them in the street you'd be phoning mental health up as a ' concerned' member of the public

Quality, couldn’t be further from the truth however

 

[Gazza no8]

Said it last night.....

Strachan, O'neil or McCarthy till end of the season

Edouard to leave this window.

 

[The Lone Sniper]

Their board's media mouthpiece, Paul Brennan suggesting this morning that Lennon's going nowhere at the moment.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

This is their biggest managerial decision since O'Neill.

If they get this wrong it could be us leaving them in the distance.

Indeed.
They got O'Neil and Rodgers timed to perfection.
They need that level again but will have to pay big to get it. The Strachan appointment had us all howling with laughter at the time but he managed to deliver when we had our own Implosion with the end of McLeish and the Le Guen debacle.

Their new management will be coming in to face a Rangers hopefully on the crest of a wave.

Yep clear Red card and Penalty not given last night.

Nah,your wrong man.Hes been unlucky and had the establishment against him.They need to stand firm against all the masonic Hvn activity and get behind the boss .#justiceforsharklovers

He hasnt lost a game this season. Apart from the two thats hes lost

It’s embarrassing bringing up how he thought his team where better than Rangers at Ibrox everyone is laughing at you Neil everyone.

The landscape there atm is not exactly welcoming, Rodgers was imo pure jammy as he was/is an excellent coach/manager sitting on his arse doing nothing.
