Whether this was arranged prior to our training camp or not, it would appear Lennon has got his priorities all wrong.

To leave the training camp and i’m assuming also missing tomorrow’s friendly game to attend this, is totally wrong.
He’s missing vital preparation time with the squad ahead of the derby plus an opportunity to assess Jamie MacLaren and choosing to attend a Celtic social function.

I'm certain that Lennon had other club related activities forcing him to travel back early, and is only heading to this cause he was already available.

He's done plenty stuff like this in his time with us. Whilst I don't particularly agree with it, it doesn't seem to have damaged us before.

Which maybe makes it a Hibs function, with Chris Sutton
Either way, I'm not losing much sleep.There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

Nah, it’s Sutton who is replacing Auld, and this has obviously been in Lennon’s diary since at least October. When was our training camp organised?

1 Celtic legend pulled out so was replaced by another Celtic legend.
Seems like a Celtic function to me.

The way its worded makes it seem as if Sutton is replacing Bertie Auld rather than Neil Lennon being the replacement, if so its possible Lennon had this gig in his diary well in advance ... whatever it is it doesn't look like a Celtic function to me. If he had this planned knowing we would be on a winter break and before he knew we would be going to Portugal fine ... but if not then in my opinion he shouldn't be leaving the squad to undertake non Hibs engagements.
I don't have any problem with NL attending Celtic or any other functions if he wants to ..... my opinion would certainly change on that if it came to him missing Hibs training sessions or friendly matches, especially where a new striker is being assessed to do so. In his own time fine, in Hibs time absolutely not ..... Hibs come first, end of story.

He flew back to Scotland last night and is flying back to Portugal in the morning and will be back in time for the match. He’ll have been contracted to the event. Plenty other coaches still present in Portugal. Really isn’t an issue apart from the folk that want to make it one.

Without knowing the working arrangements of the camp or indeed the details of his contract with our club, I’m not going to get too worked up about it.

I wish he didn't have such an affinity with Celtic but he does and the people in charge at Hibs don't appear to have a problem with it so that's the end of it for me.

NL: Leeann, would it be possible for me to travel back from Portugal to Edinburgh for one evening to attend a function I previously agreed to speak at? It won't cost Hibs anything and it won't disrupt our training camp.
LeeAnn: No.

If his flight gets delayed or cancelled then it could very well be a problem. I don't mind what he does in his free time but leaving in the middle of a training camp just for a function, which he could of declined, isn't just a simple matter.

If not then at least one of them isn't doing their job properly.
I suspect they are both doing their job properly and both NL and LD agreed this.
Of course if you have evidence otherwise.......There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

Seems some out there are intent on picking fault regarding NL, no matter how trivial it may be. Give the guy a break for God's sake.

Clearly the club did plan for it, Leann was sat on the flight home with him. I still think our manager has got his priorities wrong, regardless if the club gave it the all clear.

Priorities are all wrong in my opinion.

Who trains the team ? the ability to trust and appropriately delegate and empower is viewed as decent management in some quarters. Presenteeism and command and control is a bit pre-90s
