I assume then you hadn't listened to any Scottish football show on the BBC or Clyde after Lennon left Celtic? I thought he joined Al Ittihad the other day. Obviously not. Changed his mind apparently.

Well it was said that he would have his choice of top English clubs. A quick Google search brings up articles linking him to plenty of Premiership clubs. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/477473/Neil-Lennon-set-to-QUIT-Celtic-with-Fulham-Leicester-Norwich-and-West-Ham Unlucky.

Who said it?, what clubs? Who on Radio Clyde and BBC (your examples) If one small article from the Sunday Express is the best you can offer, thats pathetic. Why don't you just admit, instead of using the Championship thread we already have, your seethe for Lennon you just couldn't help yourself start a new thread with some cheap shop that isn't even accurate. That is it really. How sad of you The articles doesn't even say "top premiership clubs" And Lennon is a target for a number of teams in English football, having been repeatedly linked with a switch south. Just teams in English football, With one of the example, Leicester being provided was in the Championship at the time, and the rest I wouldn't say are "top" clubs You've failed on so many levels here.

Diamonds are Forever Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 He was never going to get a Premiership job - or at least not one that wasn't scrapping for relegation. I'm in the minority in that I think he comes across well when not directly involved in the game, and of all the MOTD mediocrities he's the most intelligent and informative. There's virtually nothing from his time in charge at Celtic however to suggest that he's a good manager. Reaching the last 16 was an achievement, domestically he was a failure though, his cup record was abysmal, especially given the state of Rangers. Will be interesting to see how he does, particularly as Bolton are f**ked financially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cheek to say anyone's "seething" after that reply Sportsound in particular were discussing whether Lennon going to Norwich could turn Hooper's career around All I had to do was type 'Neil Lennon Norwich' into Google and there are plenty of articles linking him to Premiership and top-Championship clubs. As it seems to have went right over your head, it was more of a dig at the sycophantic media that portrays Lennon (and McCoist, remember the "Ally to Palace" 'story' ) as some kind of managerial god continually, despite his very obvious limitations. I can't really see what was in my OP that meant I hate Neil Lennon, but nice to see that you care so much 'Rico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quitongo's Left Peg Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Also, probably the most high-profile manager from recent Scottish footballing history and him getting a new job doesn't merit it's own thread? With some of the shite that does on here? Settle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumigoo Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Massive challenge for him, Bolton have been struggling on and off the pitch for some time now and the Championship is a pretty tough league for anyone. I actually did think he would have been in with a shout for teams like West Brom, maybe even Newcastle if that job had come up so for him to go to Bolton is a tad surprising (IMO) but in many ways it is good that he is willing to challenge himself. It will be a world away from the Celtic job so will be interesting to see how he gets on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Will be interesting to see how he does, particularly as Bolton are f**ked financially. Given that most of the Celtic fans I know agree he left because they wouldn't give him any money to spend, is it not strange to then join a club who are a reported £160m in debt?

jagfox Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Be interesting to see if he moves for wny Scottish based players in the January transfer market. Totally different footballing environment for him and less off field pressures so I wouldn't be surprised if he makes a decent fist of things at the Reebok or whatever it's called now.
