Yer Bowie reference was pish, just like yer threats
Anp, the thread is titled "Taxi for Lennon?".
Clearly some folk do want to get rid. I'm not one of them and I also cannot believe this reaction given that Saturday was, by quite some distance, our most difficult domestic game of the year and we lost it by a single goal.
Even if we'd taken a hammering, I wouldn't want rid.
It's all extremely knee-jerky and folk are straying into that "we have a divine right to beat everyone" mindset which I just don't agree with.
I know we all moan about certain individuals and where and when they get played or whether we should've bought them or not but those arguments apply to every single manager there's ever been in my lifetime.
I'm not knocking criticism - criticise the team and the manager all you want - I just think some folk need to take a wee step back.
We were in the Champions' League group stages two years in a row and we're at least in the qualifiers next year.

Shut it ya ****ing dobber.
Cant knock that. On the budget he has been given he has done an amazing job
Tactically against the big boys in Europe he got it spot on last season and the first 3 group games this year (for which we deserved more than 3 points).
But domestically he seems to struggle to set up the team any different. His leaving players he bought (apparently) on the bench when others regularly dont perform means he has to take criticism
Its just frustrating
I think he gets the brunt of the frustrations (as all managers do) when the team dont turn up. which unfortunately has been often in his tenure. Even when winning we have been ****e
yes
and he has yellow (or is it orange) teeth
and thinking about it orange hair
and he is from Armagh - and the GAA team wear orange.
He grew up not far from Drumcree
****s an orangeman
It's a tired cliche that anything can happen in the Cups, winning the SPL is all that matters aas far as i'm concerned. Ergo I'm happy with Lennon.
Aye, he had the chance to beat them of Saturday and didn't.
Not that I advocate getting rid.
At the current state of play. if NL was a " foreign " manager with no previous celtic connection he would be getting his P45. A dispassionate evaluation of the figures is required here.
Come on, man. If we didn't win the SPL it would be like ER not winning Grumpiest Auld **** of the Year. The cups and the CL are all that matter. We've had one good, albeit lucky, CL campaign and some well dodgy cup results.
It's a disgrace that we haven't won at least one treble under Lennon's tutelage.
Well, I thought the Dons played us right on Saturday.
McInnes did to Lennon what we did to Spartak and almost did to Milan this season (tactics in the San Siro were spot on, despite the result).
I thought the Dons' midfield fought like f**k and deserved what they got on Saturday.
Losing to Morton is indefensible, I'll concede that, but we all crow that the league doesn't need a strong Rangers only to throw out the toys when the 2nd team in the country beat us?
Nah.
Any of you who want Lennon out should shoulder personal responsibility for whatever average journeyman yes-man ex-Celt we get in replacement.
Then, I'd be beeling.
I'm not beeling at being outplayed by a good team set out well - all the more congrats to 'em, I say.
I'll be beeling if ****s keep over-reacting, though.

Agreed Bib, I recall several years back on BBC606 being just about the only guy who wanted WGS to stay, everyone wanted rid but me and he ended up winning the SPL again that season. The Grass is always greener.
Aberdeen did get the tactics to beat us spot on. Problem is Lennon helped them.
McInnes knew our team because at home in Scotland we always play the same way. So you can set up to counter it.
Lennon should have changed it to counter them. If the team he starts with aint doing it then you change it.
When it dont work he will get stick for playing players who have not been playing well - Samaras.
I dont mind losing as long as you do so trying. And Celtic didnt try IMO
