Complete cop out re: Lennon. Has suffered sectarian abuse at every away ground in Scotland except CP but it's all his fault!! How do you work that out?

Takens abuse for 85+ mins then he decides to put finger over lips or motions his hand in a calm down type of motion and they throw coins at him.

Call it out for what it is - sectarianism because Lennon, like Mc Clean won't hide away.

Did someone spray paint hang Neil Lennon on a wall last night?

Tynecastle just reeks of sectarianism, a horrible place that'll be silenced on Sunday when Celtic come to town!!

There is a difference between not hiding away and antagonising people and situations.

Lennon has been getting it for 18 years. He's pantomime villain for hearts and rangers fans who are largely scumbags. It doesn't take a lot for them to get riled up where an Irish Catholic is concerned

Funny how BR and MON don't seem to get the same attention.

Not sure what the point is there. Majority of players and managers who celebrate in similar way to NL don't have coins thrown at them. Mourinho doing his knee slide down the touchline didn't have an object thrown at him. Why not? I've seen both BR and MON celebrate with exuberance so why NL is singled out mystifies. Just because idiots react to NL does not mean he is doing anything wrong.

As I said before, celebrating your own team's goal is different to what NL did the other night.  Cause and effect.  Had he not done what he did the other night , he would not have got hit in the face with a coin.  It's pretty straightforward.

I think his agent said it's to do with he's an Irish catholic who played for Celtic. The croppy, like Mc Clean won't lie down.

Call it out for what it is and stop hiding behind 'he brings it on himself, it's all his fault etc waffle. It's sectarian - pure and simple.

As someone else alluded to, Jose M run and slides up and down the line, Klopp of Liverpool engages is the run and fist pumps but no coins ever get thrown at them.

Haven't seen Mourinho goading the opposition when they've had a goal disallowed or Klopp doing the same?

It is possible for Neil Lennon to be dickhead who's pushing things too far and also for Hearts fans to be sectarian bigots as well. They're not mutually exclusive.

Strangely, the media, Scottish football commentators and fellow managers all are pretty much unanimous in their condemnation of the thug who threw the coin and in solidarity with NL. Some however, continue with their agendas.

Jose M might not have goaded fans after a disallowed goal but he indulges on a bit of goading all the same. I would say most managers goad but this is just getting significantly more attention because of the rivalry and other incidents that happened. 

On the other hand if being a soccer fan is a good enough reason to shout abuse at the opposition then the sport must be in a very sad state.

That's a disgraceful comment from one who portrays himself as the voice of reason. Lennon did little more than tell Hearts fans to settle down. The uncomfortable fact is that their is a large sectarian element within the NI/Hearts/Rangers supporters who single Lennon out and McClean because they don't fit the tame taig knowing his place model they prefer.
