    Thank you Lenny. No one can take away the good times, and there were some. Barcelona in 2012 was amazing.

    100% this. I'm only too glad to see Lennon go but why wait until now? Did they only realize that we are * and that Lennon has totally * it this season after watching the match on Sunday?

    Even when they finally do the right thing, they manage to make it look like * hour.

    Should have walked away months ago with some of his dignity intact.
    Tarnished what should have been a great legacy at celtic by hanging on to the job when it all went to *.

    I'm not interested in debating what he did over 8 years ago - its irrelevant.

    Your comments on Lennon being "Celtic through and through" this season are total bollox.

    He has done a * job this season and * 10IAR - he has refused to accept any criticism for this * show and blamed pretty much everyone else - the players, the fans, the media, the government.

    If he was "Celtic through and through" - he would have resigned after the Ross County defeat (when the league was still winnable). He said in November that, if things got worse - he'd walk away. They did get worse and he reneged because he was lying.

    He's not stupid - he knows he wasn't going to get renewed but he held out to get as much money as possible out of the club.

    It is totally accurate to describe him as arrogant and a money man this season.

    Still want to know why the board waited so long to sack him, surely can't be down to money?

    Listen if by some miracle Kennedy still has all the knowledge and insight he gained under Rodgers and can implement it well. then i would be for it, but its a shot in the dark at the minute.

    Obviously it's too little too late but atleast the club and fans can move on now if its true, Lennon's legacy is tarnished without doubt.

    It's a hope, but one I'm not willing to get accept for a few reasons

    1. He's been part of the problem this season.
    2. If he's been biding his time, that means he's kept quiet and be complicit in this season, he's literally then sabotaged this season for his own gain.
    3. I am so * sick of jobs for the boys. Kennedy has done nothing in management to warrant this job. It will be yet again another continuation of the same * for the last 20 years if he gets the job full time.

    The * meant to be a defensive coach and can’t even get centre half’s to head a ball. How’s he going to manage an entire team?

    Agree this does cast doubt over the supposed 10 in a row bonus and raises a lot more questions regarding why the wait. Have a feeling this is a ploy to coincide with ST renewals that’ll be coming up soon - board may have been hoping that despite losing the league, we picked up some form after new year so Lennon was able to coast to the summer without too much more flak before leaving.

    Relieved at this news. Best for all included.

    Whilst this season has * me off as much as the next Celtic fan, I wish Lennon the best in the future. I certainly do not believe for one minute it was his intention to do us any harm.

    But it is indisputable that he put himself before the club and the fans. This from a 'Celtic man'.
