Read that and thought ‘when did cammy bell sign for Hibs’ - genuinely have no recollection of him at Hibs.

[Allez Hibs]

Lennon isn't the brightest. Lewy's fault for both goals that night. Had the chance to clear it before Lafferty scored and then didn't pick up Naismith who scored a header! Woeful stuff from Lewy that night.

He came on for Hibs in a 1-1 draw away to St Johnstone when Rocky got sent off.

The man who chose to change a winning team, drop Jamie McLaren and change the tactics might have to shoulder some blame there too. I hope Lennon gave him both barrels.

While going 'tonto' at the players doesn't always work, I think we could do with a bit of that passion now to make sure we finish third.

How do you know it’s not happening?

[The Harp Awakes]

How do you know it’s not happening?

I'm not saying it's not happening behind the scenes, but there's been little passion on display on the touchline or the pitch during the last 2 performances. We desperately need to sort that out on Saturday and burst a gut to get a win.

Agreed.

[bingo70]

In your opinion. I’d rather any ranting and raving was saved for behind closed doors and kept to a minimum.

Enthusiasm and passion on the touchline doesn’t have to equate to ranting and raving though.

Guardiola, Klopp, Tuchel, Bielsa, Mourinho and Simeone are all very animated on the touchline. The only successful manager I can think of that isn’t is Brendan Rodgers.

If we finish 3rd then who cares, we are in a great position to do so, it’s not that big a deal. I do know what the poster you’re replying to means though. I think when we’re playing poorly it would be good to see a bit emotion and a reaction at times. We’ve got a terrible record when it comes to coming back from a losing position, maybe it is something Ross needs to reflect on, how well is he influencing games that aren’t going our way? Energy and enthusiasm is infectious imo.

good. The players shat themselves that night. The first goal handed to lafferty was an absolute embarrassment, and the second after we’d fought our way back into it wasn’t much better.

[The 90+2]

Lennon thought he was being a smart arse and changed a winning team for sod all.

[The Harp Awakes]

Me too. This is just another limp stick to attempt to beat JR with.

JR has done well this season and he and the players deserve great credit for getting us into prime position to finish 3rd in the league. Not disputing that one bit.

However, JR himself described the 2nd half performance in the Semi v St J as meek. He was right as the players threw in the towel that day after losing a goal which was unacceptable. The home defeats to Ross County, Livingston, Motherwell and last week's performance v St J were also meek.

Sometimes things go against you in games and you lose the first goal. Having the passion and never say die attitude in adversity is something we need to see more of if we want to secure 3rd place.

Yeh I get what you’re saying and mostly agree but the post I replied to was essentially comparing Lennon to JR. In Lennon’s case it mostly was ranting and raving. I know who’s touchline style I prefer.

Did you know that the players didn't receive a team talk that night prior to the match?

They stayed at the Marine in North Berwick on the night before and not once did he brief the team, very poor from him.

I knew Lennon's time with us was up when we lost 1-0 at Fir Park in a midweek game.

He virtually fell asleep leaning on the dug out that night, opposite to his normal behaviour.

[CloudSquall]

Lennon only knows why he changed a winning team that night at Tynie but I'm glad that for once we read about a Hibs manager going radio rental at the team following a derby defeat.

The "It's just another three points" mentality of various managers saw us on the wrong end of one derby humping to another over many a year.

[Northernhibee]

It’s not as if it worked before so why would it now?

[CMurdoch]

Lennon isn't the brightest. Lewy's fault for both goals that night. Had the chance to clear it before Lafferty scored and then didn't pick up Naismith who scored a header! Woeful stuff from Lewy that night.

A wee bit of balance to that.
I agree with Lewy being at fault for the 1st goal.
He then won the penalty for the Hibs goal.
For the winning Hearts goal lots of Hearts attackers seemed to steal the march on the Hibs defenders from the set piece. The Hearts runs were well timed and the ball in perfect. However, it wouldn't have happened if the free kick hadn't been given away in that dangerous position. I can't remember how that came about. Can anyone recall it?

Going mental after a derby defeat didn’t do us much good at Tynecastle under Lennon. Levein had his number there and Lennon seemed to want to beat him at his own industrious grinding brand of football, playing into Leveins hands every time.

Heckingbottom and Ross both subsequently won at Tynecastle. I think Lennon was the problem whenever we went there not the players.

Yes, but why is the ball getting past the first man - Lewy!!

[CMurdoch]

Yes, but why is the ball getting past the first man - Lewy!!

It get's past the first man because of how the Hibs back line including Lewy is set up to defend the set piece. Then the uber quality ball and timing of the run do the rest.
After the event knowing the ball goes to Naismith you would have Lewy drop his starting position a yard or position himself goalside of Naismith to prevent his run. Those two changes prevent the goal happening in the way it did but would have created other issues which could also result in a goal.
Best thing is not to give away cheap free kicks in difficult to defend positions. Similar happened in SDG's only cameo of the season when he needlessly gave a free kick to Celtic from which they equalised late in the game. No free kick, no goal in both cases. an essential part of game management.

That's what we pay managers for - getting a result (like Ross and Heckingbottom both did at Tynie) rather than trying to show the world how clever you are, ballsing it up and then taking it out on the players afterwards.

I really don't know why so many on here are looking at that interview and going "aye, that's what I want again" when it doesn't need to be repeated that we lost that game. We should have been second in the league and through trying to be clever we ended up fourth.

Yep important to remember how things went after that game at tynie. Start of the end for Lennon

[Northernhibee]

Two of his "famous" celebrations - going "waaaay" at Hearts fans and the "aeroplane" came from games we didn't win as well.

I don't want managers who are passionate about drawing games. I want a manager who will work as hard as possible to set us up right for each game and although Ross isn't perfect with that, I have more confidence in him to be consistent with a winning team.

Lennon made a total **** of it that night at Tiny. He should have taken a look at himself after his team selection and tactics.

Equally, the game v the Hun. Absolutely ridic we then went on to concede five goals. We should have stifled the game at 3-0 up, instead hit on the break twice whilst looking for more goals.

Nowt against the guy per se, but I really hope he joins Aberdeen.

Last bit isn’t quite accurate. Even beating Hearts and Rangers, we still wouldn’t have finished second.

lennon, IMO, was always slightly distracted against hearts and rangers due to his history with their fans, and at times seemed to be focused on getting one up on the fans rather than the game.

I don’t believe he’d have done the aeroplane if that had been a 5 all draw with Aberdeen, or Motherwell, and certainly not Celtic. It’s embarrassing that he did it at all.

[bingo70]

Saw somebody on Twitter, can’t remember who, saying he is expected to get the Sheffield United job.

The person tweeting it appears to be a journalist, not sure if it’s a real journalist or one of those pretend ones though.

On another note, Wilder would be a good choice for Celtic I think.

We had to win by 6 against Rangers. We didn’t really have much choice, and going hell for leather was working. Bad miss and caught on the break and the game turned. Had we sat on our 3-0 we’d have finished 4th. Why not try and get the relevant amount of goals to finish above them when we know we can’t finish any lower? Plenty to bash lennon about and I’ll be at the front of the queue for that, but the Rangers game wasn’t one of them.

I remember turning looking at who I was with when we went 3-0 up so quickly and both of us looking at each other like "we're actually going to do this aren't we?" and I think had that chance went in before they scored on the counter we would have. Their goal came at the right time to really just knock the momentum out of us and you could almost feel this collective sigh from the stadium when they scored.

In the end though it will remain one of my pure favourite days of football, not even just as a Hibs fan but a general great day to watch two teams be both great and terrible in equal measures to each other. Amazing entertainment.

Bar the game at Tynecastle, the football we played in the final top 6 games was absolutely superb :aok: the equaliser was fitting and a dramatic end to a great season. Some of the football in the Rangers game first 25 minutes was sublime.

The Killie game was madness too.

I just wonder what goes through a person's sad little mind to take a phone out and film someone - then share it.

Must say though, it's a little ill advised of him given his stance on Covid and his press conference in January :cb that aside, as you say, man gets drunk, so what............lucky there were no phones back in the day when I was with Mixu one night in L'Attache :greengrin:faf:

Fair doos Jeffers, I'll stand corrected if that's the case bud - just think it's very sad anyone would want to film someone drunk in any case, and make a derogatory comment (in the video) - just a sad act (person filming).

There but for the grace of God go I as they say.........I've been in far worse states.

Must be an old video, looks like it was at a social function so couldn’t have been recent. Anyway, either way what’s the big deal, he’s on a bender......I’d hate to have been filmed on the numerous occasions I’ve probably been in a similar state🙈

Yep, videoing a man who’s pished and then calling him a ginger ****. Embarrassing behaviour.

[Centre Hawf]

It was filmed on Tuesday in Carlisle by the sounds of it as the cops were investigating if he broke the law or not apparently.

I have to admit when I seen it I did worry a little bit for him but mostly because of how hard I know he must have taken the way this season has panned out and with his past history of mental health battles it would be enough to send anyone down a bit of a spiral. But that being said I could be way off the mark and it just be a man who went too hard too quickly with the pubs opening up again as we've all done before.

That's correct, it's not an old video. He hasn't broke English law but he did break Scottish law by travelling cross border for a jolly and not essential travel.

Yep, should've mentioned in my post. I don't know whether Lennon is struggling with mental health issues at the moment and I'm in no way trying or wishing to speculate as to whether he is or not. He might just be bevvied after a night at the boozer with his pals, if so fair play, I'm jealous 😁 if not, I hope he's alright and gets any support he may be needing.

Also, the pond life that decided to take and post the video is not only the **** of the Earth, but also a *****bag of the highest order.

I'm no fan of Neil Lennon but the guy has had to put up with fans protesting outside the ground wanting him out for most of the past year after making an arse of 10 in a row and and had some serious scrutiny from the media. Let the man get pissed and let his hair down ffs.

I'd say he's fair game to be snitched on to the bizzies. He can get steaming if he wants, but a public figure breaking the rules during this pandemic definitely deserves to be grassed up.

Cummings was slightly more extreme, being a hypocritical policymaker, but the idea is similar. Indeed, talking of being hypocritical, did Lennon not chuck Bolingoli under a bus?

***** starting point to a thread that has been resurrected across 8 months and managed to get steadily *****r really.
