Cummings was a Hearts reject...
It isn't a bad thing - most of our signings were elsewhere before us at a higher level and "failed". That is why they are here. Maybe wasn't a necessary comment but it is true! Could be said for almost every player in world football outside of the top 10 biggest clubs though...

Lennon does a good interview - he is usually quite eloquent and enjoyable to listen to. He is the man who picks the Hibs team and fans want to hear what he has to say.

Tbf, Lennon has done nothing but state the truth there however could’ve maybe used a different choice of words.

We have a Liverpool reject, a Juventus reject, a Manchester City reject, a Feyenoord reject and a Panathinaikos reject - funnily enough, I’m ok with that.

Have any of the players responded to the "rejects" comment? I very much doubt it. People who get offended on others behalf should reel their necks in.

Just back from holiday and feel really frustrated I missed out on the opportunity to experience some outrage.
Anyone know when the next opportunity is?

Pretty ure you’ll find something you can come on and tell us about and we can all share your outrage!

This thread is actually a belter. The folk that are complaining didn’t even listen to the interview!!!
Context is everything.
Some of you need to grow up or better still just go do one instead of trying to cause mischief.

Lennon is a Bolton reject.
He probably should have mentioned that for balance.

Not sure we've had such a motivated squad of players as we have now in my 40 years of watching the team so I'll trust Neil to know what he should and shouldn't be saying to and about them over the psychology experts on here who are critical of his methods.

I’m outraged that I missed this interview and therefore missed an opportunity to be outraged.

Time for the “Marlon Brando in The Wild One” approach.
Townsman”What are you rebelling against?”
Marlon “What have you got?”

I heard his interview and have to agree with the OP. It can't have done the players' confidence much good to hear how he decided to describe them.
The feeling I got from the interview was that he was embarassed to be in charge of a team that were outclassed at his former club and would have said anything to minimize any blame that could be put on him.
Not very classy

I don't think it was harsh at all, every club in Scotland has picked up rejects from other clubs, that's Scottish footballs level.
Folk get their knickers in a twist over anything.

Reject perhaps wasn’t the best choice of wording but it was simply to play down talks of titled challenges coupled with a loss that Neil would be hurting from. It’s not that big a deal at all, most players are rejects from other clubs but the point was they dwarf us in terms finance and the standard of player they can attract. Oh and hello hibs.net :)

Sorry, but that's how it came over. Why else would he describe the players the way he did?
BTW, I'm not a Lennon hater, as I think he's doing a very good job at ER, but I do wonder sometimes if he thinks before opening his mouth.
