    I thought I wanted him to move on until I saw the bookies favourites to replace him. David Moyes, Steve Clarke, John Kennedy then Jack Ross. Ffs, the grass isn't always greener eh, Lenny must stay...

    That's mental, those names. As much as I want him to go I genuinely dont know who would replace him which is as depressing as him staying

    I see Paddy Power have Larsson in there as well, absolute legend but not what we need right now. They also have Eddie Howe up there, possibly the best choice but I'm not sure how realistic that is.

    The same could be said about any bet at the bookies...

    but it gives an idea of who is realistically available should Lennon go

    Eddie Howe is the kind of manager I would like but it's not happening. Just cant see him coming up here. After him Im struggling for names that would excite me. We definitely need a young vibrant manager and not this Strachan or McCarthy nonsense

    I never want Larsson. It breaks my heart enough to read the abuse Lennon gets when things aren’t going well, I would probably go on a mudering spree if Larsson got abuse like that.

    There are dozens, if not hundreds, of adequate replacements available worldwide.

    The bookies have just thrown together a list of names connected with Celtic or Scottish football; it is meaningless (or it should be). If the board is using Paddy Power to shortlist managerial candidates, we have bigger problems than an incompetent manager.

    Thinking about Laura no doubt.

    I'd rather bang Jasmine though.

    This is partly why I think we are going to need to get behind him more just now so he can try and turn it around.

    Rightly or wrongly, I think that they are the type of names the board would go after if Lennon were to leave...

    Starting to think it would be more of a risk at this moment to make the change of manger if that is the type of market we would shop in.

    If he can get the next 3 domestic games out the way with 3 wins (not an easy task at the moment) then hopefully we can look a bit more positively at what’s ahead. These next 3 games are so important.

    How many of our managers in the last 20 years have not had a connection with Celtic or Scottish football? 1 maybe? If Lennon were to go tomorrow I would be surprised if we went for a foreign manager to be honest, they will probably want someone who has a closer connection to the magnitude of the season.

    There are no managers at smaller English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish clubs who are attainable and competent? Or at midsized Belgian, Dutch, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, or Ukrainian clubs? Or even at big clubs in comparable nations? I find that hard to believe.

    Who has a stronger connection to the club than Lennon? Parochialism will cost us. We should be casting the net far and wide to find the best candidate available.
