    Interesting - I’ve heard from someone apparently ITK that there’s no substance to it. I hope he’s right.

    I suppose time will tell...

    Ok, that's fair enough, you've always got good info, so will be interesting to see how this develops.

    Well if he is, I hope he gets on with it quickly and leaves.

    He’s threatened us about not blessing us with his presence before and it’s time his bluff was called as we’ve lost enough momentum with his failed rebuild already.

    If he’s going, get gone. If he’s staying commit and bring us three points on Friday.

    That’s not how the rumour began.

    I know the comment you’re talking about but he superseded that later by saying he’s be staying here for the next year or two.

    The latest rumour came from after the match on Saturday.
    So you're saying it was a breaking rumour on Saturday, and it's an established rumour now - that how these things work?

    Or are these two completely separate rumours, about exactly the same thing?

    Lennon can drift into hyperbole territory occasionally.

    Hunch tells me that it is someone taking something literally that wasn't really meant to be taken that way and that it has grown arms and legs.

    Hope so anyway.

    I agree with this . I love Lenny. But we can’t have this drama.

    Info shared was decent. He did say things to the players after the game.

    No, there was a rumour immediately after the press conference on Friday saying he was considering his future in Scottish football. Later on that was clarified when the full 16 minute press conference was put up on you tube and he said he expected to be here for the next year or two so that appeared to put the rumour to bed.

    On Saturday night though a new rumour came out that he had told the players after the game he may be off.

    I think that makes it two separate rumours but I’m no sure on the technicalities here 😉

    Has this got something to do with distracting yokels on kickback from the fact that their team lost more goals against celtc than they actually managed shots on target over two games?

    That seems harsh. The positives which Lennon has brought to Hibs during his time as manager steamroller any negatives and I would be very disappointed if there's any truth in this latest rumour. If there IS any truth in it and it comes down to the fact he feels he's had enough of the the abuse he's been getting ever since he's played and managed in Scotland then he has my every sympathy and my 100% support. His health issues are well documented and you could see why putting himself in the front line week in week out would get to be too much for anyone, even someone with a tough a skin as Lennon.

    Don't know why you're reacting like that as it's true. This team is a significant downgrade on last season's

    after losing Mcginn Mcgeough and Allan what did folk expect

    Mcginn, and to an extent Dylan were always going to be nigh on impossible to replace

    However, didnt we have more points than the same stage last season a few weeks back?

    Harsh in the extreme

    Folk need to remember where we were 2 seasons ago

    And we also have to remember we were 2 games away from 2nd spot last year, big budget and the McGinn money but we still never signed Allan and have again too many either loan deals or last minute signings way off the pace and not contributing. Apart from a few players this is his team and it's definitely poorer than last season's.

    You would need to be fair and reflect the injuries and Europe plus international breaks meaning much more of a stop start nature. Too early to say it isnt as good IMO.

    You're optimistic if you think folk are going to be fair about something when there's a chance to put the boot in.

    I believe we had 19 points after 11 games last year

    We have 18 now

    Lenny said he might ‘consider his position’ and here we go again.

    Do we have to go through this after every derby at Tynie? Why don’t we just work out how to beat them on their own patch?
    He/we need to stop being drawn into the "it's going to be a battle" mind games, just set out to plaý our own game, we seem to be turning the derby into a scrap before a ball is kicked.

    Not putting any boot in Matty, I just feel the squad is considerably weaker than last season, take injuries and suspensions into account and if looks very thin, I still don't think Lennon knows his best team and shape yet.

    We were also the greatest team people had ever seen after scudding Hamilton 6-0 but 1 expected defeat, 1 okay draw and 1 very bad defeat later we are rank rotten again because there is no in between with Hibs.net

    Ah....we got beat at the weekend so the glass is half empty again.

    If we’re not as good as last seasons team, perhaps we could remember who was responsible for last season?

    Knee jerk reaction to the first home defeat in 11 months is staggering.

    We've had one bad result.

    Lots of teams will lose at Parkhead, very few will make as good a game of it as we did.

    Lot of teams lose at Tynecastle, we didn't, in spite of playing 25 minutes or so with 10 men.

    We were pish and deserved to lose at home at the weekend. That hasn't happened for a very long time.

    I for one really hope he's staying.

    I think everyone wants him to stay, if he wants to stay.

    Uncertainty isn’t good for anyone though so if he has said to the players after the game he may be off that’s not good enough and I hope it happens sooner rather than later.

    I think we would have lost if we didnt set up like we did. We need to combat the way they play and hope the game opens up later on unfortunately the ref scuppered that by sending off our chief goal threat.

    We had a poor start last season and were leaking goals.
