A line has hopefully been drawn under the stress Neil Lennon has lived under during the last two years with the conviction of two men found guilty of sending bombs in the post. In a statement, Neil said: This has been a very stressful and difficult time for myself and my family and clearly I am glad that it is over”, before adding, “I will forever be thankful to the Police for the way in which they have handled this matter.”
Celtic chief executive, Peter Lawwell, added: “No one could imagine the pressure [Neil Lennon] has been under during the past two years. He has coped with this particular episode, last year’s assault and the, at times, seemingly unrelenting attacks from many quarters.
“In my opinion, no-one in Scottish footballing history has had to contend with this level of pressure whilst trying to do their job. Neil Lennon is someone who has shown tremendous character and resilience, and we will continue to support Neil in any way we can.”
This month has been made all the more difficult for Neil Lennon by the sudden death of Paul McBride, also a target of the bombing campaign. Neil Lennon said, “Finally, I would like to mention my good friend Paul McBride. His sad passing remains very raw to those close to him, we continue to miss him dearly and my thoughts remain very much with Paul’s family.”
The SFA have written to Neil Lennon three times since the start of the trial earlier this month to capitalise on perceived transgressions by the Celtic manager while yesterday a former referee used his newspaper column to undermine Neil’s position at Celtic.
These people really do need to get a grip.
Within minutes of the verdict being announced yesterday news of Stilian Petrov’s serious illness was made public. Stilian will received the very best medical attention and all our prayers.

That free kick proved it. They didnt want to score!!!
How horrible are that support
PFayr –
The relish with which he put the boot into Neil and the language he used would suggest otherwise to me. I’m sure he’ll blame the sub-editor of whichever rag he wrote in.
Far from being tainted, everything we have achieved over the years is an even greater achievement than has ever been acknowledged, given what we’ve been (and are still) up against.

Hail hail to
stan , get well soon !
The huns will soon be vomiting ash n fire when Lenny lifts the trophy and their football club dies.
hehe,stupid huns.
Woo Hoo, mortgage paid off……!
T4
PFayr (13:49), I heard that foul in Yorkshire!
Have they submitted their independently audited accounts yet?
No?
Looks like no games against Malmo, Maribor or Unirea next season then… I’ll bet their fans are thankful for that!
its true the huns celebrated
as if they have won the leauge,
what the hell are they happy
about , is it so true that they
dont actually get it.
The best team in Scotland 2-1 up!
It is April 1st, yeah?
God bless NL and Stan
Brines could have gave it and maybe not gave it. But his mind was made up for him elswhere. To be honest it was a penalty in the first half.
Celtic need to put this game to bed ASAP 2 morro!!
The fat cooksooker just told swally he has been dignified and distinguished …..
telly off.
mcculloch celebrating as if he’d actually won something! Fact is they’re bust, gone, knackered finished. Liquidation it is!
the ‘red&black’ was a marketingtool from CW’s guys, followed by new strip (usually released just before the start of the marching season), obviously that’s not going to happen now!
TTTT
Congratulations….I’m going to have a beer for you today….and pretend I am you:)

Can anyone understand the “over the top” celebrations this week and last week? You would think it is the Champions League cup final the way they are celebrating meaningless results for them. Quite irritating and sometimes I wonder if they really know what is going on with their club. Are they aware of the imminent liquidation and chaos that is going on with their club? I just don’t get it. Perhaps Papac is the only one who getes it based on his body language today.
Don`t you just love it.
Every manifestation of blatant refereeing hunnism is a thing of beauty.
Brines must know he`s under scrutiny,but he just can`t help himself.
Blatant push in the back from Aluko. Born to blush unseen.
The fly kicks from Mc Gregor. (Copywright Mc Coist)
Decision ? Free kick to the hun.
It really would make a decent person blush,but not,of course the hun.
Is this the Sally McCoist show on ESPN.
I see that bemulletted lickspittle has lain down again for his brethren peepil. Go figure. Still, we only have ourselves to blame for giving them the chance after last week’s cop out. Lenny will have the last laugh when he wins the title and Rangers go under. Good to see Alex Thomson lift the lid on the corrupt little world of Scottish Football, with RFC at its core. Makes you wonder what the Scottish press boys have been doing all this time to miss this big story. Anyone would think they were complicit. Sorry to hear about Stan. A fine servant of our club and too young to be going through that. Hopefully his indominatible spirit will see him okay.
Rangers like all things in their life at the moment, delay the inevitable.

Given the abuse handed out at various points by the home ‘support’ this season I’d rather win it at kilmarnock. Some of the home fans are undeserving of the celebration. Just my opinion mind…….
Congratulations, looks like you’ve got your wish…
TTTT

Stubbs ” congratulations on trying to get out of this the best way you can”
