Neil Lennon I love you

[Doh Rae Me]

In my 50 years being a supporter of Hibernian, boy to man, you rejuvenated my passion for football and Hibs. Your enthusiasm for my club I will NEVER forget, the aeroplane will live with me till I die.
The utter crap you have to put up with on a daily basis, the hatred, the sectarianism is unfathomable to me but you manage,you deal, you live, you learn.
It takes a real man to deal with, and you done me proud.

Neil Lennon I love you.

X 10000000000000. Sad day.

Here here. All the best Lenny

[Flanny boy]

Thankfully a thread with fitting words for Neil Lennon. I agree with all of the above and i believe we will see how big a loss Neil will be to Hibernian if indeed there is no way back for him at Easter Rd. God bless Neil Lennon

[California-Hibs]

Best top flight points total last year in our whole 144 year history. Let that sink in. We are SO lucky to have him as manager. If it's all ended it's a huge blow, make no mistake about it.

Outstanding effort - so your passion wasnt reignited when we won the cup?

Honestly, some of the troll posts on here tonight are hilarious

[Viva_Palmeiras]

We’re all Neil Lennon.
There’s only one Neil Lennon.

We’re a fickle bunch.

[cleanyman]

He was total box office

I loved his spell at Hibs

[MrSmith]

I wasn’t up for him coming but his passion and determination won me over. I wish you and the club could come back from this but if not, all the best Lenny

[PompeyHibs]

Quality manager
Great ambition for Hibs sadly not the same vision as our board
Some cracking memories
Defo a sad day for Hibs if he is away.
The board should have backed him with quality signings imo

Neil defo raised Hibs profile down south, everyone i speak with down here know a little about Hibs due to him. Sky sports loved him ad he an interesting character to promote Scottish football - he was always on sky

Anyway all the best Neil 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

[Spike Mandela]

My opinion of Lennon when he came...

———Didn’t want him as manager, didn’t like him, far too volatile.

My opinion of Lennon as he is about to leave...

——- Brilliant manager, brilliant guy who I like, far too volatile.

Great post and well said 👏🏻 Agree 100%

[Hibs90]

He is not god.

[Ozyhibby]

Lennon done well. I wanted us to get him and did not want him to leave but it’s done now and probably best for us and him.
Let’s not over do his achievements though. A 4th place finish is a good season and he’s the first to achieve it since Yogi but it is something a club like Hibs should be doing a lot more.

Agree 100%, best manager we've had in years.
Passionate, charismatic but yet flawed. A great individual who has, without doubt, lifted the profile of our club.

[Pretty Boy]

Folk are aware a manager is leaving the club and nobody has died aye?

Has NL really rejuventated peoples passion for a club for the 1st time in 50 years? In that timespan Turnbull, Miller, Collins and Stubbs have all won us major trophies. We've had huge European nights and Mowbray led us to 2 consecutive top 4 premier league finishes.

I absolutely respect the way Lennon has dealt with the abuse he takes, I respect the way he has been open about his health issues and I think he was a very good manager for Hibs. Some of the almost mawkish stuff is getting a bit daft though.

Spot on. I think people are conflating lennons management ability and the feel good factor around the club after the cup win.

I get what you're saying PB but still think the man deserves a lot credit for his achievements at the club.

Attendances would suggest that he has rejuvenated peoples passion for the club. There is no doubting that our SC cup win in 2016 was/is the main factor for an uplift season tickets but NL got us promoted, as he was appointed to do, and for me took us to another level last year.

His flawed character is what makes him such a likeable guy and IMO the board needs some balance from the keyboard warriors who use terms like clueless, useless, waste of space to describe him.

His team last season was, at times, as good as anything I've seen at Hibs.

Some of us will be really disappointed to see him go. It will interesting to see who replaces him but I'm struggling to think of a (realistic) replacement who fits the bill.

I know some don't like hearing it but we really should be careful what we wish for.

[SirDavidsNapper]

Find i amazing how people idolise him. He's embarrassed himself and the club far too often for my liking. Tynecastle twice - celebrating a disallowed goal like an idiot and threatening to leave. Rugby park screaming in an officials face are just are just a few examples. Publicly slating players that he's signed and played in a certain position. Yes he's been Box Office but for the wrong reasons. If you're going to act like an idiot at least back it up with results. He's shown disrect to the club once too often and looks as if he's done it again by getting himself suspended.

Imagine how Leeann Dempster and the players feeling right now......


Hibs are in the news not because of or great form but because our clown of a manager can't behave himself yet again. Great stuff.

It's absolutely this, isn't it?

The Championship season is given a massive whitewash by most because of how elated we were all feeling post May 2016. All he had to do was get us up and we didn't care how it happened.

The first half of last season saw some wake up to Lennon's flaws, but the brilliance of the second half meant we were all romantically swept away again.

Much of his so-called "credit in the bank" that people talk of is actually Stubbs' unused credit for winning the Scottish Cup and rejuvenating this club.

[The Spaceman]

Thank you Neil Lennon. Have loved his time in charge through the highs, lows, and sometimes bizarre. Has been, for the most part, very enjoyable.

Have to say, Lennon’s time with us was always going to end in a blazing firestorm, just a shame that time is now! All the best. We move on, big deal!

Absolute single fish. Hibs surf was up before Lennon arrived (thanks to our SC win)

Lennon caught the wave and just as he was looking like he could handle it he found himself under it.

It’ll be the waves fault of course.

Yes he did rejuvenate us, last season was the best we've ever had. A joy to watch, taking on the old firm with no fear, no bull**** managerial clichés, what he said he meant, touchline rammies, aeroplane celebrations, you could feel the guys passion more so than any other manager I can remember.

His passion more than anything else is what I loved.

All the best Lenny.

Why the need to post that on a thread showing appreciation? You not getting any attention on the multiple threads bashing Lennon?

Quite odd.

Some good points here. However if you weren't rejuvenated by us winning the Cup then something strange is going on.

Stubbs team would hammer Lennon's team, he hasn't really rejuvenated a whole lot.
