    The fact he's said he won't walk away it's for Celtic to decide tells you everything about the man, he's looking for a pay off and doesn't give a * about the damage him remaining in position is doing. Incredible situation one guy not very good at his job can hold the club to ransom, as for dermot Desmond he's not prepared to act unless he has hun director's pishing themselves at him. Where's wee Fergus when you need him to sort * out.

    I do know we’ve been using rolling contracts since MON left and that it’s common knowledge among the Celtic support of the rolling contract.

    Even Rodgers started on the rolling contract before signing a 4 year deal in his second season.

    Presumably we are still just haggling over the pay off amount and that why there's been no announcement. :39:

    Can I ask how you know this? I’ve looked it up several times and it says SuperZidane is right.

    Can someone send that * Lawwell a calculator so he can work out how much more the club will lose through ST’s and merch than paying Lennon off. * no brainer if it’s coming down to money.

    You surely can't be defending him?

    On Monday when someone asked him if he had the boards backing until end of season, which had been reported in the media last week he replied “good news for me then”...then some comment about he hadn’t been told that.


    That quote says to me he’d be happy just to stay on here til end of season no matter if we lose every game. Can’t blame him too much for trying to make as much coin as possible. Board should of done their job months ago.

    Continously shooting ourselves in the foot by allowing time to pass by having this parasite in charge. Its not this season thats at stake, that is done and dusted. Its for the seasons after that. Allowing Lennon to continue is an act of incompetence, sabotage. Completely disillusioned at the moment. Tired of it all.

    Potentially haven't even hit rock bottom yet.

    What sort of standards are these * trying to introduce ?
    its not * ok to get knocked out of champions league qualifiers by minnows
    It's not * ok to come last in a Europa league group with 3 poor teams in it
    It's not * ok to get knocked out of the league cup by Ross county
    It not * ok to be second in the league, to be 20 odd points behind already is * outrageous!
    Any one of these should be casting doubt on a manager's suitability for the job
    What the actual * is going on at celtic

    So many things * me off about this. Had he just been sacked in November, supposing we hadn't got a new manager in until January, we still wouldn't be in any worse a position than we are now, and we would have had a transfer window to try and strengthen. Even if that was just strengthening for next season. As it is Lenny is getting nothing, as he is likely off at the end of the season, so this window is a completely wasted opportunity and leaves us at a disadvantage going into next season as well.

    Also it's not as if that lot have had to work to win the league, through our own sheer incompetence from Lawwell and Lenny down, we have boxed it up, wrapped it in gift paper, tied a wee bow to it and handed it to them on a * platter. It's pathetic.

    None of it makes sense, other than now to assume that this is a stand off between Lawwell and Lennon to see who is the bigger * of the lot.

    I'm starting to think Lennon has went to Lawwell thinking he is his mate and asked for a payoff months ago, but was laughed at and told to get tae * he needs to quit.
    Lennon being stubborn as * wouldn't do that and Lawwell being equally stubborn and a * is now playing a game of chicken for who can stand this * the longest - Lennon and his reputation (now gone) or Lawwell and his balance sheet with the ST and Merch money on the line (pretty much taking a hit going forward).

    Reckon Lennon surely can not be this big of a * and stupid, like this is serious low levels of complete idiot to be able to * up a Celtic squad this bad, it can only be done surely by someone being malice and doing this on purpose. I just refuse to believe that ANY manager of ANY ability could be this * poor at managing Celtic to be 6 wins in 21 games or whatever the stat is now.
    And in equal measures, you have to be on a lower level of stupid than Whyte and Greens love baby to be this * stupid and bad at running a business that you are literally watching and listening to your customers tell you to go * yourself (Lawwell) and that they won't be buying anything again.

    If every customer of Tesco suddenly said they were not going to shop there again, with a serious threat, because of the CEO - the CEO would be shown the door the next week. Never mind the Dubai trip, the * season, the 2 decades of biscuit tin mentality, the years of abuse to the fans. Just purely a loyal customer base telling you they are not purchasing again would be enough to make changes happen.

    I can not for a minute, surely believe that both these guys are this thick in the head for one of them not to have done the right thing.

    Which leaves this as being a act of complete *-nature between the pair and the only logical thing is, Lawwell is a tight * and Lennon is a stubborn *. And that brings my thinking now back to Lennon has approached Lawwell earlier this season to ask for a payoff and been laughed at.


    The alternative is, he is literally this stupid and not a Celtic man.
    I just can't believe there is more than Donald Trump in this world at that level of idiot.
