    Wednesday was baffling playing PH left back, with Gray, Mackie and Nelom on bench....
    I suspect they weren't fit.

    Why were they on the bench then? Maybe because there was no one else.

    I'm sad if he leaves but curious to see who comes in next.

    The players weren't playing for him and the timing is unfortunate but he had to go before more damage was done. I've loved Lennon's time here up until the coin incident and it's sad it had to end like this.

    I'm very disappointed that he's left as I had faith that he was going to turn things around.

    However, it's the timing of the events that worry me the most. I'd love to be proved wrong, but I don't see how we can now recruit what we need before the summer window.

    It was pretty universally agreed that we need a couple of strikers, a winger and a CH by Thursday and I think we were working hard to achieve that. There was also noises about a signing or 2 today.

    They may still arrive, but if I was a pro footballer, I'd keep my powder dry and wait to see who took over at the helm before committing to a contract at Hibs.

    I've seen a few suggestions that we might be able to get loans to fill the gaps in the meantime. I'm glad folk are starting to see the value of short term signings at last!

    Not really bothered either way.
    We had a good 2nd half to last season but other than that it was a bit so so for me.

    No. I always felt he got us up for most of the big games.

    Been some bad signs recently but I felt he had till the end of the season to sort it.
    Like the Aberdeen Semi Final? or the Celtic Semi Final? Or the last three derbies?

    His "big game" record at Easter Road is roughly - Did well against Dundee Utd that one time and a few home derby wins.

    Not happy he's gone, but not exactly gutted.

    We did ok against Rangers and Celtic, home and away.

    Edit: I think there's a chance that we were as successful against Rantic under Lennon's tenure as we have ever been, possibly since the Tornadoes, but I might be mistaken.

    I'm happy he is gone but I'm sad that it didn't work out. I wanted him to do well but out with 6 months last season and the odd result it's been pretty meh.

    Mackie looked fitter than Hanlon when he came on.

    How can any supporter honestly be happy at losing any manager in the circumstances where the clubs' business is washed in public because certain people can't hold their tongues before an official statement or announcement from the Club can be made. It's not the first time where the press and social media have exploded with sensationalised & speculated events from in and around the club based on gossip leaked by loose-lipped individuals!

    In the current situation, how can there be any way back for Lennon now, irrespective of the truths behind this shambles, and what will happen to any transfer negotiations he and the club have been pursuing? What decent manager in their right mind would want to pick up the poisoned chalais that we are becoming in the circumstances?

    I just posted some stats on another thread that show Lennon has a lower win percentage v Rangers, Hearts and Aberdeen than his immediate predecessor (albeit the Aberdeen stat is warped as Stubbs only played them once).

    There is no comparison for Celtic as Stubbs didn't play them. Lennons win percentage is a decent 28%.

    Under Lennon at Easter Road we picked up 2 point from 3 games at Rangers (2-1 defeat, 5-5 draw, 0-0 draw). Granted we have a cracking record at Ibrox.

    At Celtic Park I think we've picked up 1 point from 3 games? Again granted our home record v Celtic has been very good.

    But with the exception of the game where we beat celtic 2-1 last season after the split, I don't think the games away to Rangers, or the game earlier this season would be classed as "big" games. e.g. there was little on the line other than the three points. No external issues e.g. heading down the final straight of the season.

    I don’t know the extent of how true the rumours and horror stories are but clearly relations are strained to say the least. In that scenario, I would be happier with a new face in, to try to steady the ship and get us out of the rut, which we shouldn’t be in.

    His tenure has run its course. Time for a change for both parties.

    I understand your viewpoint. For me, any game against Rantic or Hertz is a big game, but I get your distinction.

    What's the thoughts, will there likely be chants of "one Neil Lennon" tomorrow?

    Would be a bit counter productive.

    If there is then he deserves it. Done a good job for a good bit of his reign.

    I know mate, didn't mean to come across like that. I hope there isn't any such chant. No point backing him now he's gone over the players who are still here considering there seems to have been a fall out between them.

    Not sure what your problem is. Have you seen Luke shanley saying that his sources say Lennon will be gone soon?

    Suggest you take a brake from the internet today bud.
