    The revenue drop next season will be enormous anyway (new manager or not) if we don’t win the league.... probably minimal or no european money, STs down massively, kit sales (pi$$ off), merchandise .... all drastically hit.

    I remember a home game at CP in RDs second season against st Johnstone ... I was the only seat being used in my row in the main stand... same in every row front and behind. 8000 there if lucky.. only the GB making any sort of atmosphere.

    They could be facing worse figures than that if things go into a downward spiral.

    One of my cats just dragged its * along the arm of one of the couches and left a wee round pebble Jobby!

    * is that all about?

    Clatty *.

    That statement has Lawwell all over it. Trying to deflect the heat away from himself, the board and Lennon, and turn it swiftly on to the fans. Wouldn't be the first time he has flung the supporters under the bus.

    If we get the right manager in now, the league is still winnable. It's still mathematically in our own hands, although they have to be favourites now.

    If I had been interested in Edouard as a manager and I followed his progress over this season I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole- we always slagged Morelos penchalent spoilt wee boy attitude when things weren’t going his way always culpable of seeing a red card- hate the wee * but actually wished Edouard was a wee bit more like that- a know his not his nature and he’s probably just naturally a laid back guy but if we hadn’t seen last 2 seasons how great a striker he can be and this was his first season and we’d paid 9 M for him he’d be up there with scheidt as one of the biggest waste of money signings

    Dunno who the right manager is though who’s going to just come in and hit the ground running- cause let’s be honest, that’s really what he has to do

    I honestly can't see this group of players winning every league game from now until the end of the season without some major investment. We are week in too many areas plus we would need a big name manager to attract the players we need.

    Absolutey no point in keeping him on... he's not winning the league. I just don't see the logic at this stage of keeping him. It makes Absolutely no sense.

    Also staggering the amount of support Lennon gets from alot of fans on social media... how any fan thinks keeping Lennon as manager is going to benefit the club in anyway.. seriously ..

    I really fear this team will not even come 2nd unless Lennon goes. Any manager without investment should be able to get us that.

    What else is there? It's the only hope. Whether they will do it or not, only time will tell. If they don't, then the 10 is gone.

    They gave up months ago.

    It's been abundantly clear.to laymen watching at home on streams but not our leaders.

    Every game bar the Hibs home game has been a slog this season.

    The leaders that we have (that we pay handsomely) should be able to foresee danger long before Joe public, with us though it has went in reverse.

    Eddie hasn't kicked his * all season and still gets played. Ntcham could do a * on our badge in the dressing room and still get picked over Turnbull.

    We've been let down big style by a lot of people at the club and it's not time that they were held accountable for it, not just Lennon.

    Got excited at the alert about Celtic releasing a statement tonight.

    then realised it was to attack the fans for being angry.

    We just have to make it to January. Then we can get in targeted 6-month loans. I'm not normally a fan of loans, but this season...

    I think Lenny has been hung out to dry TBH. By players and board. Not arguing that he's blameless, he's obviously lost his head for quite a while, but boy has he been getting it tight for that. Until today, the board and players have been largely spared that anger. Maybe they'll take it seriously now that it's not all hitting Lenny.
