I know he did a great job here but he has done nothing but fail since then and has no experience at a bigger club like Celtic

Seems like a waste, if they love all things Celtc and all the Irish Republican nonsense that goes with it.

I'm pretty sure you can separate them in that respect.

I was confused when Lennon left the club. The entire debacle and the way it played out was bizarre. His 'suspension' was breaking news very late on a Friday night and we were left for a good 5-6 days to debate on the forums and social media as to the reasons why.
The club made no announcement despite some serious pressure from our fans and the media and it led to some crazy stories and speculation. Some in the media where an absolute disgrace throughout the debacle because they were not being drip-fed the information they craved to fill their pages. Pro-Celtic pundits like Chris Sutton gobbed off about Hibs being lucky Lennon isn't suing us for damage to his reputation - some questioned our ambition and audacity to not be transparent about his departure and smoke screened this behind our fans 'deserving better'. Stories were simply being made up.
It fractured our support as some demanded a statement telling us the intricate details of what was going on. Petrie, Dempster, board members, fan representatives and Flo Kamberi were all blamed by sections of our support. Stories of chairs flying about, Sir David and big Daz banging on Leann's door - it was an absolute shambles and at times comical.
The other side of the coin where some supporters who understood why the board couldn't release a statement and explain the situation. When suspensions and investigations are taking place, there must be something serious going on behind the scenes. The obvious conclusion was that we would never really know. This in itself caused frustration when the somewhat awkward statement released by the club was incapable of clearing things up and was then ridiculed by the press and some of our own.
Hearing that Rodgers is away to Leicester City today to finalise a move and newly found free agent Neil Lennon is readily available for Celtic and to cancel his media plans overseas just seems a little suspect to me. Especially when several media sources down south are suggesting Celtic have known for weeks that Leicester had earmarked Rodgers as a replacement in the even of Puel being sacked (which has felt inevitable for quite a while IMO).
The timeline is unclear, and of course it will remain that way. However, my frustration over this is the taste it leaves in the mouth. It looks and smells like crap. People were very quick to chuck the club under a bus and accuse them of lack of ambition among other things. This actually resulted in Leann showing immense frustration when Heckingbottom was being announced to the media when they went digging with questions about Lennon's departure. They were all keen to put the boot into Hibs and take Lennon's side - this, whether some like it or not, sheds a different light on saint Neil Lennon.

I don't think he knew. I just think it was time for him to leave us, considering the awful season he was having.
He got us promoted, did decent in our first season back up and was very poor this season. I wish him nothing but failure at Celtic, except when they play Hearts.

It was only a small minority who were very, very, vocal about their assertion that Hibs for reason or reasons unknown had engineered Lennon's departure from the club. There was no real evidence that this was the case, but on and on they went, in the process calling the board and fans who rejected their theories anything from Masons to Huns and all points in between …. not so much on here but certainly on other social media.
With just as little evidence apart from coincidence there is now an open goal for anybody who wants to espouse the theory that far from the board being to blame for Lennon's departure, it was him who engineered the situation in the knowledge that the Leicester / Celtic situation was about to arise, especially given his past connections with both clubs …. it would not be unreasonable to surmise that he still has personal contacts at Leicester and especially Celtic.
I'm willing to bet anything you like that all of a sudden the folk who were ripping into the club and their fellow supporters over Lennon are far less inclined to accept the idea that he was behind his own departure …. which is ironic considering the lack of concrete evidence for either theory being accurate. Still. its far more fun and suits an agenda far better when you can trample Hibs into the ground, a lot less so than having a pop at an ex manager eh!

Yeah, I’m not Lennon’s biggest fan, but I think this is a bit of a leap.

Always thought that hibs was a way back to Celtic. Just not in these circumstances. Rodgers was always going to leave when the offer from England came

Hes the perfect fit for them under the circumstances,and I would think he gets that post permanent nxt season.he obvioulsy couldnae continue at hibs on the road he was on.It would be something to have a very vocal easter road,with banners n flags full bells and whistles home game against them,to show him we are no small fish.

Absolute carve up. Think hibs are due a few apologies from some media outlets, pundits and some of our own fans.

How much was Bill Leckie paid for his article to the Celtic hordes last week? Sadly our clubs been used big time to keep the winner Lennon in the news and appeal to the Celtic support.
