    All for £500k and we would have had his replacement

    I’m off to bed. Can’t wait for the 10 seconds when I wake up tomorrow morning and I’m convinced this was just a nightmare. * me. Lennon out. HH

    Well what can u say about that!? Absolutely gutting. The most damning thing to be said is that I saw it coming after 20mins. In fact we all saw it coming bcos we've all seen it before.

    The domination of the stats, the domination of territory but ultimately we have a soft centre which has been left unaddressed for far too long. The harsh truth is we do not deserve to be at champions league level. Forget the mega elite bcos they spend billions to succeed but to falter against clubs with a fraction of our budget is failure whatever way you wrap it.

    Who is to blame? the players? the manager? the coaches? Lawell? Or is it a combination of the above.

    It's not the night to dissect it mainly bcos I can't find the will to but sooner or later those in the positions of power at our club need to or otherwise they should step aside.

    No focal point in attack. No presence in the box. No one able to take the ball and hold it up. No aerial threat.

    This might seem like a complete exaggeration and I’m sure I’ll get slaughtered for this, but i honestly feel as sick as i did on the last day at fir park in 05. Tonight for me is the night we lost 10 in a row.

    Lennon's clearly * and all but I wouldn't got that far when the competition for the league isn't exactly much better

    I think we lose eddy and possibly ntcham after this mate, 2 players we can’t afford to lose and as you say Lennon is a clown, we got away with murder last season when rangers let it slip after new year.

    well the good at least were attempting to be more direct with all the shots at goal

    but its about time we had the option of going route one at times and for tha we either need a pacey striker or a guy good in the air ala hartson

    all the teams we play are gonna sit in and play it tight, its like they are taunting us

    the only way we can fix this other than sign messi is to have another angle of attacking we need to mix it up, weve went stale

    I think theres a certain predictably if things are not changed drastically
    Love Neil Lennon the man, the player but he isn’t who we need to win 10 in a row, Sevco gave it to us last season - they won’t this.
    We need a spark , we need inspiration , we need to be brave and fix it before we look back with regret- an opportunity for 10 in a row won’t happen again we must try to win that - and not expect it to fall in our lap this time - it won’t!!

    About 10 cutbacks in and around the 6 yard box and no striker there with the instinct or positioning to finish

    us coming back from the winter break and blowing teams away, takin 28 points from 30 , is a bit unfair on us to say that they gave it to us, granted they slipped up but it was More down to us being ruthless and not slipping up that won us the league rather than them giving it to us

    Still scunnered, no silver lining or crumb of consolation to take from that.

    It's just a rerun of previous season's battering teams and leaving the back door open for them to steal a win seen it last season with Cluj and then Copenhagen the lessons aren't being learned although the mistakes are continually being repeated

    For the performance or the team selection on the night. No.

    For failure to yet again negotiate a qualifying round that shouldn't really be a problem and be embarrassed again. Then yes they have to shoulder the blame.
