    Knocked out by Cluj in the Champions League and then by a Copenhagen side that we dominated for 135 minutes.

    Fans are allowed to critique Lennon and the players in a balanced way. Credit is due for a number of european stand out performances this season but we've also thrown away winnable ties.

    Tactical and personal mistakes were made against Cluj and Copenhagen that have been thoroughly discussed and rightly so.

    At least he had the sense not to pick Jozo today.

    Delighted for him today, thought bringing Rogic on for Griff worked well, freed Christie and helped keep possession better..

    Pressure was on today.

    More rotation would be nice, but he did get the team to fight, when conditions ruled out us winning on our technical ability.

    Lennon looked shattered in that interview, he must have kicked every ball today !!. Phenomenal achievement to keep a run of 34 games unbeaten in the cup going, that is pressure but seems to have been forgotten by most of the media. Well done Lenny.

    When you set records like that the manager and team who lose will be criticised like mad. Lennon also had pressure after Thursday. He must be feeling very relieved.

    Credit to Lenny that he didn’t hesitate in getting Taylor off as he was having a shocker and it looked like if they were going to score it was coming down his side.

    Hayes was much better when he came on.

    Not an easy game on the eye due to conditions but a wins a win and we march on to another semi-final.

    Sat down with about 10 seconds to go..

    Unbelievably thick..

    Lenny knew Madden could've just added another minute or so for that..

    He was sheepish as * when when he got back up after looking to the bench :56:

    I honestly think that not many managers would have got that out of they players today ,we were destined to lose that today and the players absolutely gave everything they had .

    Hard to imagine someone like AVB, going there yesterday and digging out a win..:56:

    Lenny may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but he’s definitely a winner.

    What puts it into perspective is like these players have more medals than these players...

    Gordon
    Lustig
    Simunovic
    Bitton
    Izaguirre
    Brown
    McGregor
    Rogic
    Forrest
    Griffiths
    Edouard

    Bonner
    McGrain
    McNeill
    Aitken
    McNamara
    McStay
    Petrov
    Burns
    Dalglish
    McGrory
    Larsson

    And those players all played for us for at least 7 seasons.

    The whole coaching staff's reaction to the Huns game every time the camera panned in was embarrassing....especially when our game was still going on..

    The delight because we'd * up tonight..

    That second half was shocking. I'd rather they concentrated on that..
