Guess it just goes to show how devisive a figure Neil 'The Lurganator' Lennon really is. I never saw the real time incident unfold on TV, but I can imagine that shortly beforehand, he'll have been giving it big-licks towards the Jambos fans seeing as Hooper had just scored. (Having witnessed his behaviour at Ibrox before where he does the same sort of GIRFUY to the fans.) Jeff Jimmries said after the game that their was a poisonous atmosphere at the game, probably not helped by Neely's accusations.... sorry... OBSERVATIONS that Hearts had lay down to Rangers. There is not a neutral football fan in this country who has a good word to say about Lennons behaviour, at times it has been shameful. The question now is will he stay on? Will he be allowed to stay by Pistol and the Baron? My own preferance would be that he stays and goes to a behavioural course over the summer and learns how to control himself before this really gets out of hand. IF he is pushed/walks the radical Irish element amongst the Celtic support will use this to pursue their persecution complex and use it as an example of how the Scottish public hate Irish Catholics and 'everything that Celtic 'STAND FOR''. I'd prefer to see Neils tenure at Celtic to come to a natural end where he is pumped/ resigns for losing the league. Also just heard that raids have been carried out in Ayrshire in relation to the Parcel "freedom fighters" Should be interesting..... GIRFUY
Though, I do feel that's a bit harsh on Lennon, no one deserves to be attacked at a football game. But you're correct, he does not help himself with his provocative behaviour.
Yes, sure he does. How dare he stand by the side of the pitch looking so provocative. "Provocation" used as an excuse by bigots and ****s for centuries.
I'll explain this to you in a situation that you would find familiar. So you're in your local gay bar when Nick Griffen walks in and starts spouting his anti-Gay/Asian tripe in a manner that is inflammatary. Now, YOU might not attack him, but someone would. Doesn't make it right but.......
I suppose on FF right now there will be a thread from a Rangers fans swearing blind that, jsut before the attack, Neil Lennon could clearly be seen mouthing the words "AIDS ridden Edinburgh junkies" to the Hearts fans. I mean, if you can make up lies about him being racist towards Diouf why not? Anything to justify your hatred.
yeh it's a good idea to do it infront of the rangers fans after recieving bomb parcels from the same group of people (probably)
If you get upset by ear cupping then you must be a right sad ****. Don't bother responding to that accusation as someone pretending to be a Liverpool fan when it's clear to everyone else he's a Rangers fan is, in fact, a sad ****
I've told you before, I don't hate Lennon. Not that I don't believe that there are people who do hate him. But why won't you see why he is hated by the vast majority of football fans in this country? Not just Rangers fan or Hearts fans or Dundee United fans? What is the reason that he is detested by so many?
But - the bigot's byword for their behaviour for centuries. "I have nothing against gays BUT..." "I don't mind black people BUT..." "I don't condone what's happening to Neil Lennon BUT..." Is Neil Lennon detested? Is he disliked by fans of other clubs? Probably. Does that justify Rangers fans accusing him of making racist comments towards Diouf, even after Diouf himself said it didn't happen? Does it justify Rangers fans calling him taig bastard and worse? Setting up websites urging people to kill him? Does it justify people running onto a football pitch and assaulting him? It's just an excuse to justify the behaviour of thugs and you're contributing to it with this pathetic "aye but..." ****e.
He's detested by football fans in this country, because of the way he acts/conducts himself. He accused the Hearts of lying down to Rangers, that would have annoyed the sinister element of the Hearts support. He may well have given the Hearts fans the GIRFUY after Hooper scored, further annoying the lunatic. If Lennon is so traumatised by what has/is happened/ing then I don't know about you, but I'd be keeping a low profile, but he revels in being the pantomine villian. He loves it. Bomb sent to Lennon allegedly by Rangers fans: Lennon "I'll go onto the Ibrox pitch and give them the big GIRFUY and cup my ears and growl at them". Why would he do that? Why would he accuse Hearts and Motherwell of lying down? Why? WHY?
