    Nah m8... he’s ruined all that...he had the choice to leave when clearly he knew he was inept & incapable.... he chose to carry on due to his own stubborn attitude... we are where we are, because if him. It’s football & it’s been on his watch, as sutch, he’s fallen on his sword.

    We've never actually seen a team with Kennedy in charge. He's had experience under a few managers now and must have some ideas of his own. Not saying I'd want him long term but will be interesting to see if anything changes.

    I think many of us share that fear to be honest.

    Why sack him after losing one game after, what 4 wins?

    Surely the string of bad results previous, and being punted out the cup by minnows should have been enough.

    The board were reluctant and they have failed to deliver. What other manager would have been given so many chances?

    Left before the prospect of welcoming Sevco to Celtic Park as champions, or crowning them there, imo

    Maybe he held out for an extra £50 that he was due in March and the board decided to pay him upfront.

    If he wasn't sacked he'd come out with his own statement saying why he couldn't deliver this season

    Honestly can never recall not having a bit of sympathy whenever our manager has been canned over the years....until now , both him and the board have been nothing short of a disgrace this last 6 months , thats their legacy as far as im concerned , not easy to say given how desperate i was for lenny to succeed !! Love to think we might get some forward planning for a change but wont hold my breath !!

    He was not sacked but I don’t believe for a second he resigned on his own accord. Most likely he was told by the board to resign or be fired. The stubborn git said a few days ago he planned to be here next season and even blew his top again after being asked about it.

    I never wanted him back but gave him the benefit of the doubt. Really proved to be an incompetent manager and probably the worse we’ve had since Barnes. Wish him all the best though but no longer a legend in my eyes. His treatment and attitude of the club, players and especially the fans has been so horrendous and unforgivable.
