Brown shoes with a blue suit!
What a fashion faux pas.

Thought the same, actually.

I know a 'blue suit'.

The Celtic fans will be sending him death threats.

He has a point breadman

The more I think about this appointment, the dafter it's staring to sound.

What we need is someone experienced who can work with shit players and mould them into a team that can avoid relegation.

Has he got experience of managing during a relegation battle? No.

Has he ever worked with a budget of £0? No.

Has he got twenty years of experience at managing? No.

Has he ever managed a disparate band of misfits like ours? No.

I hope I'm proved wrong, but I'm starting to think Fat Fucking Phil's dropped another clanger.

unfortunate shadow in this one looks like he's pished himself.

To be fair Breaders has called it right up to now, we have gone from one disastrous manager to another, only time will tell wether they have got it right this time.

What has impressed me though, and has instilled a point that we are not some small time outfit is the quality of manager we have attracted, we shall await the outcome of Lennons leadership, I feel optimistic.

There's loads of risks can't we put that aside for a bit and back the man FFS.

Great second album Scott.

So for now,Up the BUM.

This! I can't really be doing with all this sectarian shite tbh. I don't care where he was born, all I'm interested in is whether he can turn out a football team worthy of our support. If he can then I am behind him 100%.
What difference does it make what colour his hair his? It certainly has no bearing on performances on the pitch.
I do hope he is the right choice. Time will tell. Should be a cracking turn-out at Birmingham on Saturday!

I'm a bit late catching up with all this as I'm in New England on holiday (because its the international games) but I'm delighted with this appointment.
I don't really buy all this stuff that he's no experience in the English leagues, or the championship, or a club facing relegation, or a club with no money for transfers, etc.,- none of this is essential for success.
He's a motivator, doesn't stand nonsense, builds attacking teams and has  a track record of winning things.
Give him about 3 competitive games and this team will be different in terms of personnel, tactics and mentality.
There'll be fireworks - but that's better than the last 3 years of utter tedium.
Next home game, I'll be turning up at the Macron with expectations of winning and seeing some decent football.
I won't be disappointed

You can't be dismissing his inexperience with a club in Bolton's shoes and go on to remark about his track record of winning things in a one horse race in a tatie pie league.

Owen Coyle had more experience with limited resources (St Johnstone and Burnley) and he couldn't make the step up and cope with more resources. Can Lennon do it the other way around?

I wouldn't want him in charge at my club but all Bolton fans can do is back him and hope he digs you out of the hole that you are in.

Of course I can. The guy is used to winning and that alone breeds an attitude that says he won't accept the dross that Bolton have served up for years. It doesn't matter that it's  been in a 'tattie pie 'league. Its a league that has been as competitive as the lower end of the Championship and therefore he will be well aware of what's required.
To say he has no experience ,and all that sort of stuff is like saying anyone who changes jobs in the same sector is almost doomed to failure. Its managing a  football club- that's all it is- its not brain surgery or astrophysics.
Of course he can manage at this level.

If somebody had told me a week ago that Duggie would be gone and Neil Lennon would be managing us I'd have thought they were a raving nutter. Seems just too good to be true. Obviously NL is a bit of a volatile character and to some extent unproven but I'm just Sooooooo so glad the MISERABLE,sterile Freedman era is over and looking forward to a bit of passion being shown around the club again.
This might all end in tears as usual but just at the moment this feels like a BRILLIANT appointment to me.
