    Great appointment I wouldn't like to see any other man lead us to 10 in a row. This is written in the stars, Lenny started it and will finish it by doing the 10.

    That’s the thing.... how many supporters who have been elated for an hour after the win ... now feel utterly deflated regarding the appointment.

    Like everyone else on here and who supports Celtic in general, I think we all have massive amounts of respect and love for Lenny. This announcement however shows we have absolutely no clue or idea whatsoever in regards to driving the club forward. The laziness from Lawell, Desmond and everyone else charged with running the club is appalling.

    Anyone can see that performances, whilst poor all season, got worse under Lennon and even with the hangover from some players after the way Rodgers left, I cannot see him being the man to take us forward.

    I hope he proves me wrong, but this worries me greatly, if this is the best idea the board etc can come up with.

    It's been a brilliant day with the result, but not the performance - especially prior to the Hearts goal. We have gone with the cheap option - yet again.

    He was never going to turn it down as he hardly set the management world on fire when he left regardless whether hes been given funds or not he knows this is the best job he'll ever be offered

    When I found out, I tried not to be deflated but I certainly am, on freaking cup day as well - that’s the boards fault!

    Knowing our board with their inadequate investment in players and that they historically * up transfer windows, to now bringing on Lennon and in the manner they delivered that news. It’s a kick in the stones.

    Why are people talking about a big budget. He's not going to get a big budget. He's been hired because he's easy. It's the same old budget, the same transfer model, same everything.

    I was hoping for a marquee managerial signing to reboot the feel-good-factor at the club, but hey ho - it's no happening, so I'm getting right behind Lenny!

    Yes, our performances have been pretty turgid of late, but I'm not blind to the fact that the rot was setting in LONG before The Snake sneaked out! Hopefully the Board will put the funds that we haven't spunked on a managerial 'name' towards buying a solid team of Lenny's choosing!

    Hail Hail!

    Don't think he would have got it tbh if we lost, but also thought it was still 50/50 even having won, I think the "One NL" chants got him the job...they seen the fans chanting and knew the cheap option was there for the taking.

    Vital that he is givin some decent money to strengthen the squad.
    He done that before hopefully he can do it again.
    Would love to see Buvac come in as his assistant.

    It is was it is. Highly doubt it there was anything in those Benitez, Villas Boas rumors, at all. I'm sure Lenny knew that if he delivers the league and the Cup title, the job is his to have. He already scouted some potential signings himself. Went to France to watch that striker in league 2.

    Most important thing is that he gets the recruitment right. Board need to back him, and back him well. All this negativity around him, is so over the top. Squad is deplated. He only had one striker to pick ffs... had to play Toljan, no manager in the world can make him look like footballer... Rogic is *. Ntcham couldn't be bothered. Christie injured, kieran injured most of the time. Sinclair doesn't offer much now.

    Don't buy into that presumption of him not being able to get the best out of the players. Bullshit. Most of those mentioned before are either *, past it or * with injuries.

    He made Jozo look like a proper defender. Can't believe I'm saying this ffs but it's true
    Hayes has been brilliant under him as well.

    Board and the fans need to back him now. It's all about the next transfer window.

    Gobsmacked! Utterly gobsmacked...

    The board have no respect for the time and patience that's put into forum polls for new managers and the general banter that comes with it....

    It was Lenny all along ....

    Love the man but he is not the one to push us forward. Be interesting to see what assurances he's been given, if any...
