    Since his return Neil looks like the puppet of the board to get away cheap. I hope he has some self respect and walkes away like he did in 2014 when they didn't funded him adequately. I like him as a person and don't wabt him to end up as a puppet but he knows it himself that ours is probably the biggest job he will get and that's not playing into his cards for more funding.

    Neil has to take some blame for not buying a CB and sanctioning projects.

    At least BR gave us a hint with the whole Schved thing. That's why NL must share blame.

    NL not seeing the Jozo carcrash was poor though and playing Brown unfit and I assume telling CM to play so far back and cause problems for our back line is another worry.

    Listen EL ws never on, if we get another treble that is tops for me. I just a pain going out to a team from Scandinavia again.

    But its not sometimes with you is it? According to your bitter attitude everytime something doesnt go to plan its always Lennons fault. Its so * predictable, you just cant wait to come on here spouting off about Lennon. Typing with one hand and wanking off with the other. * sad that you as a Celtic 'supporter' are waiting with the knives out ready to stab the manager in the back the minute something goes wrong. Disappointing to know we have people like you lurking within the Celtic support.

    Just find our European record under him confusing at times. Cluj and that shambles tonight in the same season we beat Lazio home and away while finishing top of the group with two games to spare. Bizarre.

    Lenny rightfully takes a huge amount of credit for our successes so far this season...
    And he rightfully takes a huge part of blame for our failures this season, this, Cluj, and our loss the huns sting, tonight probably the most and its a difficult thing to get over, domestic success is our bread and butter and at the moment we are on for another good year, but for a club our size getting knocked out of the last 32 of Europa league 3 years on the bounce and tonight to a team we should be rinsing is tough and really puts a celling above us, this cannot be the way and in our two biggest European ties Lenny has been tactically out fought and our team have * the bed at what used to be a fortress.

    Poor team choice tonight, absolutely abysmal at changing shape and players at crucial times, something he gets wrong more often than right, questions will rightfully be asked, very very poor from him and the players tonight, a tough evening.

    What a laughable post - Lennon has got a got a lot of deserved plaudits this season but he deserves to be criticized when he gets it wrong - against Rangers on the 29th and tonight. It was a real surprise that Jozo ****ed up wasn't it? given he's been flaky in every game he's played this season - Ajer likewise.

    This sits with Lennon - he changed a winning team , he picked players who have been poor for quite a while and he didn't change anything until the game was almost 80% done.

    The manger selects the team and the tactics and ultimately the buck stops with him. Lennon ****ed it up tonight - simple as that.

    You seem to think Lennon is immune from criticism and resort to childish insults against anyone who does so.

    A lot of people need to log off, go to bed, and come back tomorrow when things have settled a bit. Very little productive ever gets said in the immediate aftermath of games like this.

    He got in badly wrong tonight but Lennon hasn’t become a bad manager overnight, and neither have we become a bad team. At the same time we were horrendous tonight.

    Only thing a can take from it is Neil is a very good league manger but not that great when it comes to two legged affair in knockout football his record in domestic cups has only just improved his time with us before he struggled to win the league cup and only the Scottish cup ... must be less pressure in a group section I guess

    It is not totally out of merit to be regularly good against * scottish opposition week in week out, but it is still * scottish opposition with a fraction of our resources.

    But every time, almost every time, against decent opposition that it is at least slightly under our level, it is this *.

    Cluj, Huns. The games in the group stage, Rennes were bad, we were lucky and rescued against Lazio by Forster, arguably good against Cluj, the worst of those teams in paper. No ability to step up even against opposition slightly worse than us, nevermind better.

    Take Forster out of the equation, and would be a Deilaesque season. And to date the board made no attempts to sign Forster definitely.

    One sub tonight was criminal, if only for the fresh legs. It’s the clearest evidence Lennon didn’t know what he was doing tonight. He cannot handle games like this and Cluj. He needs to learn.

    Lennon got it badly wrong tonight. I think a lot of us value the Europa League as a place to showcase our talent and the group stages were amazing but again in a one off knock out game under Lenny we blow it. It was exactly like Cluj. We lost our shape, composure and looked like 5 year olds playing in the park after we got the equaliser. Thats a horrible performance in the league cup final where we fluked it, a terrible performance at home to the mutants, a gamel against Cluj early on in the season where we seemed to learn from our mistakes only to do the exact same thing against Copenhagen. And not only that but Sevco have handed us the league. True we have been excellent since Xmas but they truly * it. I love Lenny. I really do. But tonight is a really sore one.
