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.

Aston Villa now making a fight of it….
They seem happy with themselves in stopping a party at Celtic park tomorrow. Really? If Celtic win tomorrow the players, Lennon and co should celebrate with 50,000 fans, lap of honour, etc,etc, as we WILL be champions. Many might not be at away game , or worse, if it happens mathematically on a sat and we are not playing. Full Celebration tomorrow as champions at Celtic Park.
jammy fat cats level with black cats.
Feck – me and my big mouth. Man City equalize!
3-3
unreal
Torres scored…I need to lie down.
Liquidation seems the new buzz word on FF
bit of a bun fight breaking out on who would follow what ?
Professional team playing at Ibrox owned by yanks or a fans owned FC Rankers.
Just home but no surprise about the score at Motherwell. When Celtic win something we know that they`ve done it themselves.
Good fightback by Man City, 3-3. A few minutes left.

Well done the U19’s. Quite clearly “the best young players” in Scotland for the third year in a row.

A certain cheeky chappie scored a hatrick on my birthday 24 03 1984
The same Masonic one
I recall it well as it was the only time that I recall three generations of my family being at a match, my late grandad was there and that diving cheating moist hit scored three and spoilt it for me
Hit should have read

Just past a Cop in Buchanan St, listening to his iPlod.
Truth – they say – is the first casualty of war.
In war and in peace here in Scotland truth has always been the first casualty of Rangers.
