Bring Back Minipops Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Just got a text saying Neil Lennon just got sparked out off a fan after Celtic scored? This is bollocks right? Cant find anything yet. Â He was attacked by a Hearts fan but he wasnt sparked out. Guy came on and punched him but fell over doing so and was nabbed by about four cops as he hit the floor. What the stewards where doing I'll never know. Â I'm sure it'll be Lennon's fault though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members martyngnr Posted May 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2011 Strange how the Hearts fans didn't care this much when their team was rolling over and getting their bellies tickled at Ibrox on Saturday?! Â Diet H*ns indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUM Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 He was standing and the fan ran from behind and tried to attack him. Fell to the floor and was restrained by the cops. Shameful little country is Scotland, and hopefully this dis spells the theory that it is just the Old Firm as so many claim. The full country is a fucking joke.

Â Unless you want to have a chain of about 500 stewards around the entire perimeter of a pitch i don't see how they can stop some reject running on the pitch.

Â Well usually there's stewards dotted about the front of most stands. There wasnt a steward anywhere near the guy or the incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â I think there were I think he just made it look like he was walking down the stand and then ran and jumped over the fence. Pretty depressing times for football with whats been happening with the Old Firm this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I'm sure it'll be Lennon's fault though. Of course it will. I'm sure the press will report the incident as Lennon's fault, just the same as the media & Scottish public in general have all completely turned their backs and blamed him for the parcel incidents. Â It's a hard life being a Celtic fan/official, especially with everyone being out to get you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted May 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2011 Absolutely shocking behaviour. I think for Neil Lennon's safety he needs to resign at the end of the season or even Celtic doing the right thing, stepping in and giving him a job upstairs (something where he isn't in the lime light). Â The worst thing about this is you'll have the ridiculous back and forth blame game between the Old Firm (like Bring Back Minipops post) and nothing will get sorted.

Happ Hazzard Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 IMO the Scottish Parliament should force Rangers and Celtic to merge and become Glasgow FC. They can play at Hampden Park. Play in a kit containing neither Green or Blue. If necessary do the same with Hearts and Hibs as well, Edinburgh FC, play at Murrayfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People tend to sensationize these things and forget the fact it was one fan out of thousands that did this. When Raith Rovers played Dunfermline in the vital league match you didn't get people going to these extremes.  It's a shame that the idiots win this, if Neil Lennon goes. BUT as I say for everybody involved it's for the best, hopefully Celtic sort him out with a job out of the limelight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â 2 really weak red cards tonight also, considering how far the fan who attacked Lennon (A guy who has had death threats BTW) ran from the stand I would say the stewards pretty much fell asleep, the guy fell over and never really made contact but if he had a weapon on him then picture what could have happened. Â It's not the 1st time a fan has got that close to a manager/staff as well in Scotland, I might be wrong but I remember a Celtic fan jogging over to a keeper during a European game to shake his hand or something during play and the keeper made a meal of it acting like he was shot in the face, thing is 1 fan should never get that close to players/staff.

It's disgraceful.  Bombs in the post and having people trying to attack you on the pitch, it's incredible.  Are Hearts considered a Rangers lite type of club by the way?
