Celtic fans on Twitter wanting Dempster at their club, as she knows how to get shot of Lennon 😂😂

[KingPat4]

Was disappointed in the manner that NL left us and our league position. But overall he raised our profile. If he had got Ryan Christie in part exchange for John McGinn, who knows? Things may have been different.

[Magpie]

I think his time is up now.

[hibbysam]

Stage two of his meltdown tonight, snappy and defensive when it comes to questions from reporters. He’s called out the players, now he’s calling out the media. He’s another bad result away from fighting with a player and having a brawl with the CEO.

[FilipinoHibs]

Lennon will be gone soon. Lawell will not want to be seen doing nothing and letting 10 in a row slip away.

His name is almost always preceeded in the media by the adjective Furious.
As per Hibs, his style of man management worked well for a while at Celtic but the players, as they did at Hibs, seem to have become worn down by his constant rants.

I think it’s probably too late. But they certainly won’t turn it around this season if Lennon stays. That has been clear for a while now.

[Baader]

I like Lennon but something is very wrong there. More a matter of when than if I think. I'd imagine if fans were back he'd already have gone. Silly move him going back there.

What's the alternative though, genuinely? Someone like Brendan Rodgers or a manager of that ilk was a one off for Celtic, they won't get that calibre in the door this time. And even if they do, managers take time to bed in. They can't afford that this season.

I honestly think they are as good as handing the title to Rangers if they sack their manager now. That being said, it's a mammoth task for Lennon to turn it around. Rangers really are flying just now

if i was them id go for o'neil and roy keane

[The_Exile]

Struggling struggling struggling. He has been places though, and won things.

Lennon loves a siege mentality he knows if he turns it round and wins 10 in a row from the situation he’s in now he will be a god at Celtic

Never going to happen now. Tbh they've been pretty poor since he's come back. Sevco don't look like dropping many points either.

[Pagan Hibernia]

I couldn’t care less who wins the league.

I care very much who wins the Scottish Cup next month...

come on Celtic get it together ffs

Hearts will be fancying their chances in the final with Lennon in charge

I wouldn't go that far (although I did have the same thought).

Interesting thread though. Lennon and Stubbs have signed exactly the same number of players still with the club 3:3. One won us the holy grail the other promotion and a run in europe.

All managers have an expiry date. It's because players move on, new ones arrive and aren't quite right (regardless of system), other mangers and clubs get wise to how you play or innovate and things move on. The fundamentals remain though. The clubs with the biggest budgets usually rise to the top.

Celtc clearly have the wherewithall to complete last season's treble (probably with Lennon - but if he fails then he's definitely oot) and that could be the catalyst for them to kick on this season. But there is no doubt his coat on a shoogly peg and Celtc may move to get rid sooner rather than later. But if they're miles behind in January he's gone.

Lennon is an icon for a number of deserved reasons - a victim of sectarian agression and someone who has had the courage to talk about mental health issues in a male dominated macho culture like football where weakness of any sort is used against you. Lennon is frusting, brilliant, useless, combatitative, honest and secretive all at the same time.

I'm happy he's not Hibs manager any more but respect what he did at Easter Road. I hope he can find some sort of long term peace - but I suspect that will never happen within 30 miles of Glasgow or Belfast.

As for Gerrard he's just a **** and can **** off.

The manner of their defeats and performances suggests it’s starting to look more and more unlikely they will be able to pull through. Their next 3 domestic games before the cup final are all home I think, failure to win all of them and that’s definitely the final nail in the coffin.

I really hope they go for Roy Keane. Another born winner that’s a a poor manager but entertaining to watch when it’s all falling apart.

Roy Keane would be a glorious appointment. Watching him have a meltdown when he can’t compete with Rangers and Gerrard would be hilarious.

Nae chance. He’s getting the sack.

[joebakerforever]

Although Lennon might have choreographed his exit from Hibs in the knowledge that the Celtic vacancy was imminent, and therefore deserves no sympathy for his predicament, I find myself disliking Tom English once more for being a vulture with his latest comments on the BBC.

This guy likes to pontificate on all things football, based on his poor knowledge of the Scottish game.

I'd rather see the "Vulture" dispatched before his prey in this instance.

Did you hear him use the phrase “how dare you come on here” to Darryl Broadfoot? Cringeworthy listening - his notion of his self-importance is way off the chart and his on-air interview for the position of Hearts Comms manager is tedious and tiresome.

Poch is too big a hibs fan to take that job. He's replacing Jack Ross.

Think it's 2 wins in 9 for Lennon, he'll be getting the sack pronto.

He's a dinosaur. Lewis had an interview where he said that Lennon barely ever worked on anything tactical. Just sent the team out on a saturday and said right, we're playing X formation. These are your positions.

Madness in this day and age.

He'd also expect you to step out of his way if he was walking through a corridor to avoid bumping into each other.

That's not leadership, that's just being an ********.
