Post by: T Fearon on February 22, 2017, 11:51:05 PM
Great result tonight.Top of the league and into quarter finals of Scottish Cup.This is as good an achievement as Brendan Rodgers in Scotland this season,in my opinion.

It is the equivalent of Limerick FC winning the first division last year .  Limerick got to a League Cup final and reached quarterfinals of FAI Cup .

He has only a tiny fraction of the budget Rodgers enjoys and has much greater opposition in his league to contend with than Celtic.

I tell you something if Hibs draw Celtic in the Scottish Cup I wouldn't risk any money on the outcome

Been suspended by the club apparently after a training ground bust-up with a youth player.

Where did you read that? 
The news reports are very different
"Lennon had been suspended  following a dramatic exchange with chief executive Leeann Dempster in the immediate aftermath of a full and frank exchange with his first-team squad at the East Mains training ground."

In the context of Neil Lennon, a dramatic exchange could mean a lot of different things.  in this case there could be another burnt bridge left in his wake.

Board probably didn't back him in transfers I'd say. Had a great year last year but board sat on their hands.  He's lost a few lads who are with Australia and that weakens his team.

Hope...What happened was he was giving out to a player (bollocking) when the Hibs chairman and some other numpty stepped in to take control of the situation and tell Lennon to back off and Neil just told them to f**k off too...

Moral of the story when you tell the person who employee's you to f**k off there is usually only ever one outcome

The Hibs Chairwoman is very capable person and to describe her as a numpty is unfair
See they won today 3-1 away after a 5 game losing streak. Maybe he'd just taken them as far as he could.

Do u know her? How do you know? She could be a great business woman but might not know a lot about football which I believe that's what Neil said to her.

I didn't say Neil was in the right or wrong, just stated what happened. Hibs should just be careful what they wish for...he may well have taken them as far as he could...who knows but what I do know is they were a much better team with him in charge and the last few seasons have proven this, if I remember they were in div 1 when he got them. Got them promoted to premier and won the Scottish Cup beating Sevco 3-2 in the final.
Anyway Hibs loss as far as I'm concerned and from what I'm hearing between letting players leave and not getting the signings he wanted it probably is for the best for both parties

The chairperson is called Rod. Seen photo wouldn't exactly call him a woman

Dempster is chief executive

Leeann Dempster. Yes ok she's chief executive but it was her who suspended Lennon. So that's my point. She's not a numpty. She held in high regard in Scottish foorltballing circles and knows what she's doing.
I like Neil Lennon and thought he's done a good job. But I don't think we should blindly support him because he's from Lurgan.

Petrie is definitely a numpty, an egotistical numpty.
Point of order, Stubbs was in charge when Hibs won the Scottish Cup.

Hibs have been forced into a humiliating public climb down after being forced to exonerate Neil Lennon and Garry Parker of any wrong doing despite booting them out of the club last week. Both men have had their contracts paid up in full.

:D
That's quite funny,
Armagh speake for Lenny gets about 50% paid of the rest of his contract and both sides say goodbye.
