From the Scotsman:
Lennon admitted he had “spat the dummy out” on Wednesday with his post-match rant following the 2-1 defeat by Hearts. He suggested he might not be around next season and then failed to turn up for training and a pre-match press conference on Friday. Hibs will now only qualify for Europe if Celtic beat Motherwell in Saturday’s Scottish Cup final. “There has been speculation, but I caused the speculation,” said Lennon. “I put the board under unnecessary scrutiny. There is no issue with the board. I had a set target in mind, I wanted to break into that bracket of Aberdeen and Rangers and we have come up short. I have to look at myself and say: ‘Did you do enough?’ I did all right. Fourth is acceptable for some people, not for me. Today is academic. The game was enjoyable. It epitomised the football and the games that we have seen this season from the team.” He was asked to put an end to the speculation, which he did happily: “I have had a think about it [my future] and I am no longer considering it.”
Holds his hands up and commits for next season. Everybody happy now? :wink:
