    He was alright in his first spell. It doesn't look as if his career has progressed much since.

    I'm ok with some cheap loans until the summer. Save the money for a new manager to spend.

    One of the first signs that made me not want Lennon as a permanent manager is that he had an immense grudge against Benkovic and wouldn't play him no matter what. Wanting or not it was clear he was our best or second best defender back then.

    Don't think this will happen. Even if does, our coaching and tactics would turn even Beckenbauer in a dud

    I'd take him again with an option to buy.

    Sadly its too late and we have paid the cost of going into a 10IAR season with 3 natural CB's. Said in the summer we had to buy at least one more and we took the risk again. Couple injuries and a dud in Duffy and blammo.

    * Bitton.

    Agree @Mr Shelby
    I would actually take him back, on a perm/loan to perm, but * off wasting any more money on this squad if it is just for a 5 month loan. Pointless and complete waste of funds.

    A few months ago I wouldn't have been to keen or that fussed but he can't be worse than Duffy. With Jullien out we need at least 1 guy in at cb.

    Signing him highlights inadequacies in the scouting department, if we really wanted him we should have got him before now.

    I really hope there is something in the Ben Davies rumours, left sided centre half with lace and a leader.

    * can he play on plastic. He'll just need to play on * plastic. He'll need to play on a bastardin ice rink if that's what Celtic are playing on that week and he's planning on taking his wages.

    Ive got nae time for this "I cannae play on plastic" type pish.

    If I was to start a job and tell them "I cannae work on Mondays"..........well they'd tell me to go * maself.

    Absolute nonsense....the lot of them.


    This is the gospel according to Tenants. All who agree say "AYE"

    He has better decision making than any CB we have.

    Would 100% take him but getting him up to fitness would be a worry if he’s only played 1 game.

    Good player and should have signed him at strat of season. But do we really need a player that hasn’t played a game in months and will take a while to get up to speed possibly?

    Sums our recruitment & management team up like that we keep going back to the same players, saying that I would happily take him back, not sure why he gets so much hate I thought and think he's an excellent player similar to Roberts and its just not worked out last few years.

    Bring em both back * it, up the recruitment team.

    Lennon out
