    I am gutted with the past 3 results! But people calling for Lennon's head are clueless!! We win a few games and we are world beaters and we lost a couple and we are *! I was in a pub tonight to watch the game and for 77 minutes all of our players and Lenny where screamed at, told they were * and basically not supported. Once we scored they were all singing and cheering and we were great again! Then as you would expect, we lose the 3rd and we are * again!

    How can he affect Maj deciding to get sent off and put us 1 down?

    How can he affect Forster not coming off his line to close down the angle on the striker braking through, doesnt excuse Maj but MAYBE, just maybe, it might have stopped him making that stupid tackle.

    How can he stop Ki from trying to make a passback to the keeper and just getting zero power on it leaving us wide open? He couldnt sub him as Kayal was * and had to be taken off, what was Lenny ment to do?

    We have lost key players and it has showed with our dis-jointed play and lack of goal scoring chances.

    I am * off with the finance orientated board we have, Im not wanting us to be in major debt but they are really showing a lack of ambition and i feel are not backing lenny 100%. The huns showed it last season, 3-4M on one player and then winning the league, we have spent 1M. Spending money is not a sure way of winning the league but i am * off with the board saying we will sign quality then letting us down.

    My main point i suppose is that yes Lenny has made some mistakes but its not solely his fault we have failed in Europe again. The players, Lenny and the board all have to be held accountable for this, BUT calling for Lennys head and branding the team we loved last season as * really * me off! The team is good for the level we are at, we just need to add some more quality to the depth we have as outside the first team i dont think we have great quality.

    Calm down, brush ourselves down and get behind the team. Slagging them and wanting rid of Lenny this early is pathetic and does not help anything.

    Spot on mate. I think it's more of our younger and less mature supporters that are the problem when it comes to being fickle. They are unaware that Celtic have been in this situation time and time again and have always come out stronger on the other side of it. I was born in the late 80's and attended my first game at the old Celtic Park in the early 90's. Things were far worse back then than they are now. Rangers were absolutely dominant and were smack bang in the middle of their 9IAR run.

    The point; stop being so negative. As soon as all of our players are fit again, normal service will surely resume.

    Dumped out of Europe before September by a * team again.
    Lennon's signings were *, lennon's tactics were shocking and the boards lack of investment is shameful.
    Knew the faithful thru and thru brigade would be on tonight but i'm * sick of it.

    As much as I like Lennon he's just not up to European competitions.
    On the plus side there's no long trips for the team in Europe.

    * you. I suppose you're pleased tonight are you.
    If you don't get upset when your team are humiliated then you don't bother.

    I'm too long in the tooth to worry about getting beat. I certainly wouldn't be a * cry baby though. Sick of being a Tim? Not me.

    Did i mention i was happy at any stage in my post?

    What i am saying is the knee *, over reaction, spoiled brat posts dont help anyone!

    You are all either 'WE ARE * GREAT AND WE WILL WIN THE LEAGUE AT A CANTER!', or 'WE ARE *, LENNON MUST GO!!!'. Why is it from one extreme to the other?

    So the answer is to sack Lennon is it? And where does that leave us? Why not learn from this and build on it?

    There's a difference between being "*" tonight and being "*" altogether. You weren't being very specific. And it's hardly Commons' fault he didn't come on until the final moments of the game.

    Seconded. They need us now more than ever, so get behind the * team and stop bad mouthing the likes of Lenny, who has poured his heart and soul into this great club over the last season and a bit.

    Nevermind a relatively big game like this which is properly gutting to lose, when we don't win ANY game I just want to give this place a swerve for a few days, so many people utterly lose their minds and go * wild screaming for the board/manager/players heads, it makes painful reading.

    Then we beat Rangers a while later and suddenly we're world beaters, Lenny is a genius and players you hated last week are your new hero.

    Kness get jerked so hard on here I'm surprised half of you aren't in wheelchairs by now.
