Neil Lennon

Na his big heid would save him.

 

September 30 is Celtic v Hibernian. I reckon Lennon will get a good reception at Parkhead.

 

Think we'll get a really, really good challenge at Easter Road this season in the games against them. Wouldn't surprise me if Hibs are one of our very very few slip-ups this season.

In saying that, their fans are itching to take us down a peg, so hopefully we ram abut five in against them the first time we play them.

 

He'll get a great reception, guaranteed.

 

Wonder if Neil will do the same kind of celebrations when he comes to Parkhead and we score in the last minute.

 

I thought it was quite clearly a * take.

 

To make it 5 - 0?

 

Hahaha contradicted myself a belter there!

 

Spent a few hours with Rab Douglas and some Dundee fans yesterday

He brings all this hate on himself by his antics. Look at him there noising up the Dundee fans.

 

Shocking stuff from him.

 

Hibs boss Neil Lennon has been praised by Dundee fans after nipping into a city pub after Sunday’s Dens Park clash.

Punters were left “stunned” when the 46-year-old walked through the doors of the Clep Bar and walked up to the counter to be served.

The ex-Celtic captain is good pals with former goalkeeper Rab Douglas who was in the pub at the time. Lennon sent big Rab a text asking for him before meeting up moments later.

Gary Knight, convenor of the Big Rabbie D Dark Blues who are based at the Clep Bar, was there when the Hibs boss walked through the doors.




The 44-year-old said: “Rab comes with us in the Clep before and after games occasionally now that he’s not playing anymore.

“Lenny asked him after the game if he was about and said he was in the Clep Bar and he just popped up.

“Everyone was a bit stunned when he walked in. There was instantly a buzz around the place.”

While punters debated the game over a post-match pint, the Hibs boss remained sensible and opted for a juice.

Gary added: “He walked in and then straight to the bar. Instantly people went up to ask for pictures, but we had to tell them to let him get in and order his drink first.

“He was brilliant though and he was more than happy to pose for photos. And he had a good catch up with Rab.

“He was an absolute gent – totally different to what he’s portrayed as.

“There was a buzz around the pub for the hour and a half that he was there.

“The boys were saying how nice it was for him to come in.”

Lennon was also happy to discuss the contentious issues from the 1-1 draw at Dens with fans.

Gary added: “He spoke to a few of the Rabbie D members about the game and had bantered with fans about the game.

“A few of our boys were saying how good Hibs looked and wished him well for the season.”



Report from the local rag here. Lovely to read as opposed to some of the absolute * peddled in the SMSM!!

 

No doubt about it, absolute legend imo.

 

Great post.

 

“He was an absolute gent – totally different to what he’s portrayed as."


No surprise to us, but good to see that included.

 

Was it ever revealed what led to him resigning in 2014?

I remember being surprised but not that upset about it, but everybody else reckoned it was coming?

 

I remember hearing he basically said that he didn't think he could have qualified for the CL again with the money he was going to be given that summer.
