    Go back to our performances between losing to Cluj and late November and you have to give him credit because we were playing fantastic football as well as getting results. We have to get back to that sort of form.

    What worries me now is that we're seeing performances like the end of last season, where we might get a result but the standard of play is utter pish. That and getting tactically torn to shreds on three occasions vs them now.

    Let it be clear that I'm not writing him off. I have faith in him to get it done - but he has to change his tactics against them and learn from his mistakes, or more points will be dropped in future.

    I hope he learns from today , they played as everybody except Lenny expected , we were out muscled , out played and they obviously wanted the 3 points more than us . Lenny you obviously seem reluctant to make changes early in the game .
    I am just gutted at the level of performance against the mutants again .

    MJ shites it against them and you don’t change a winning team.

    Lennon arsed it from the start.

    Looks like doofus is finally getting his chance to have a wankfest over a bad result under Lennon. You’ve been waiting for this moment for months, go on Son let it all out.

    Mikey Johnston should have been hooked at half time. It was clear.

    Instead of trying (and failing) to be a smart * maybe you could respond to the * post.

    Johnston clearly wasn't fit shouldn't have started, his subs were pish and somehow we looked worse when they came on, we've been * all December and getting away with it cause we haven't played anyone who can punish us until today. We now need the kind of run Rodgers went on post break last year, as I'd be shocked if they don't win their game in hand and go top.

    Needs to get CM and Broony pushed up, especially CM, they just Harry us and over flood the centre, but we have Brown and CM standing next to our CBs, and there is only 2 players in the centre up front against about 5 of them.

    The selection itself wasn't where he got it wrong today, taking so long to do anything about it however. It was fairly obvious after 10 minutes it wasn't working, so why wait untill there was 25 minutes to go and 2-1 behind to do anything about it?

    For all the praise he has had this season, he deserves all the stick that will come after this debacle.

    Serious investment needed in January.

    He doesn’t do that.

    Just acts the * in every thread, afraid to be critical of Saint Neil Francis Lennon. Scared to have an opinion.

    And thats why i hated this term "we like rangers in the 90's" get outplayed but win...* THAT.

    We have been * for many weeks now,i love Lenny but he makes me want to hate him at the same time for his own stupid decisions and tactics.

    Everyone could see a fix early on and he gives the players the benefit of the doubt because he trusts them too much.

    I would have * Hooked Forrest/MJ and Christie just after half time,if not even before it.....but let them play on in hope they would change the game.


    * sickening today man.....and hes to blame as well as the * poor players.

    He's received a * load of praise this season that he's fully deserved, but now deserves criticism for today. His game plan, was absolutely shocking. I was surprised to see Johnston starting and I know it's hindsight but he shouldn't have started. Too much of a reliance on both full backs providing width, and it didn't help that the delivery wasn't good either.

    As somebody said earlier , * the beaches of Dubai and get the prima donnas running up and down the beaches of Ayr like the late great Jock used to do .
    Why spoil the * when they can’t be arsed putting in a performance against our nearest rivals .
    I can take a defeat if you put in a real performance and the other team wins but I will not tolerate another can’t be bothered to urn up against the mutants .

    MJ was one of the biggest reasons we won at Ibrox and everyone has spent weeks upon weeks * about Christie on the right and Forrest on the left.

    * was he trying to do today? we stood off them and let them control the game to what? counter attack? we got lucky with that last time but we cant count on it, at celtic park we need to control the game, we need to show the heart, the fight, the desire, we had none of that, * did he say at ht, well done just keep going, you knew after 5 minutes of the second half that wasnt going to work, he's been outdone by Gerard twice in a row now, he better get things sorted or he'll be out of a job at the end of May.
