    MON is a bit different to me too. I was 7 when he took over, 12 when he left. It doesn't feel fresh, there would still be excitement for me, it'd feel new as I didn't understand football(well I knew what was going on, but from a tactical sense I was clueless)when he was with us.

    Fan of Lennon's when he was here, although I do not want him back. The law was laid down after the UCL last 16 run, we were a few players short of being a very handy side in my opinion and we never invested well and were quick to sell the spine of our team and not find suitable replacements.

    Lawell should have trusted Lennon to spend wisely on the transfer market, (yes we did sign some whoppers under Lennon), but that is what happens when you take cheap options in foreign markets if you do not do the homework.

    I respect Neil Lennon , although for the best interests of himself and us, we should be looking elsewhere for a replacement, and it will be the same old story for Lennon with regards to the financial situation if he comes back.

    No . Some relatively unknown German in his early 40's that hasn't yet managed outside of Germany .

    The German Ronny Deila please. A roar is preferable but not a necessity.

    I know mate, was joking. Markus Weinzierl from Augsburg would be decent, he's done a great job there.

    I don't give a * if the next Manager is from Outer Mongolia.

    His nationality is completely immaterial.

    I don't think MON is in anyway realistic.

    Not only do I not see the board giving him a good enough wage but I also don't see them giving him the money he'd need. I also don't see him wanting it. I mean, why would he?

    Times have changed. Players have moved on and football itself has changed. He won't be back here.

    I want a manager who favours technically sound footballers ahead of battlers, runners and pressers. The best sides are always full of players who are comfortable on the ball and can retain possession most of the time ( through good distribution ). Deila's side has too many players who lack the technical mastery to consistently pick and execute a pass ( Johansen , Brown , Boyata being the main examples from today along with Griffiths although with him his goals return and the fact he plays up front alone makes it less of an issue ).

    Bring him home

    I am officially starting the bring Neil Lennon home campaign. He'll sort these zombie * * out. No way would be so gutless if Neily was in the dugout. Teams emulate the personality of their manager and Neil has the biggest stones going. His Celtic teams played with the same balls.

    Keep Ronny till the end of the season. No sense in sacking him now. But as soon as the season is over, sack him and bring a Celtic legend home.

    There's only ONE Neil Lennon. Come home, Neily. You'll sort that * with the magic hat.

    Get Deila gone now, arrest the rot ala Mowbray season, get NL back in like last time to use the dregs of a bad season to assess the situation, we'll be zombie tramping next season, and back in UCL the year after.

    Save us Neil Lennon, you're our only hope.

    Bring him home, Desmond. Bring him home and give him a warchest.

    Did Ronny ever tap into the consciousness of the Celtic support like this? Nope. Bring him home!

    Aye am pished mate. I'll wake up the morra and realise Ronny's still the man. ffs

    'Neily' should never have been allowed to leave in the first place. Tory * didn't back him and so he went. They better have learned their lesson noo. Get the man back. Give him the money. And the ship will be righted.
