    If it was going to be changed it would've been Friday or Saturday IMO.

    A convincing away win (at least on paper) pushes the decision back further now.

    There was a response from the players in the first half but to see Lennon sub on Eddie and Ntcham again in favour of others in the squad (even though they linked for the 4th) suggests to me that little is going to change long-term, meaning there will be another calamity in the post in the not too distant future.

    He’s not going to be sacked or leave after today, * is wrong with people?

    Get yer heads back in the real world, he won the opportunity to go for the quadruple treble on the 20th of December unless it’s apparent that he doesn’t have what it takes to fight for the 10.

    Hibs, St Johnstone and Killie are all must wins in the league, in the same way today was, up until that game. That’s the tightrope he’s walking just now but he and this team have put us in this precarious position and it’s up to them to pull us out of it.

    Hardly a makeshift defence. 3 of our first choice back 4, and Bitton who has been playing that position for a couple of years now and started a number of games this season already.

    Papering over the cracks, nothing more. We still looked awful at times.

    Not wanting a defeat, just seeing that as a lesser evil than more scenes like Thursday evening or the OF game sandwiched in between a couple of ‘sufficient’ performances. I just think if he’s in charge until the end of the season it’s going to end in a very ugly fashion. There’s no smoke without fire, it’s not as if there is a large section of the support who would rather him gone for no reason.

    The board aint sacking him until he looses another 2 league games in a row or something like that.

    He's here until its turned around or we loose the league,EL is just a sideshow now

    Sorry mate but it’s nothing to do with the result today. His admission about not analysing games is not on. I cannot get passed that at all.

    Can't deny we'd be better with Jullien back but, even if calling it make shift might be a bit of stretch.

    He needs to see things quicker and change it quicker. Too many times he looks lost on the touchline

    I guarantee that he expands on that point when he realises how it comes across, there is no way on earth we don’t analyse games as a club.

    Past participle of the verb “Spell” is “Spelt” in this context mate. Maybe you should verse yourself in English grammar first before you try being witty with it.

    Played a game less than the filth and we've scored 3 goals more!! Pretty * obvious where a lot of our major problems are. Not all of them sadly but a lot.

    Agreed. I think it's potentially worse than that. To even lose a first goal could see us crumble. Got the fear any set pieces around our box or fast counters. We look so vulnerable.

    Same usage of squad is now inexcusable. Feel we're using a plaster to treat a leg break here.

    I want him gone at this point, but the reaction to his analysis comments is just a case of people jumping on anything and everything he says tbh.

    Teams don’t sit down and analyse every single full game they play and neither do managers.

    I’m pretty sure it’s not the first time he has admitted it. Former players have confirmed it and not in an attack Lennon sense, Mjallby apparently said the same too.
