Lennon warned not to sit in Ibrox Directors Box
The Celtic boss was effectively given a half-time red card by Calum Murray after speaking to the referee about the incident where Cha Du-Ri was sent off.
In normal circumstances Lennon would be forced to have watched the second half from the Directors Box but was told to watch the second period from the Media Room for his own safety
“I can’t sit in the stand for my own safety, that sums things up in this country,” the hoops boss revealed.
“I would have sat in the directors’ box but I was told for my own safety that it wasn’t a good idea. I watched the second half in here (the media room).
“The biggest game of the season and I can’t go out in the stand to watch my team or send down messages.
“I have Stevie Woods (goalkeeping coach) at the door and he was running up and down the tunnel for me. I might as well have sat in the house and watched the second half.
“When you are down to nine men, it is an uphill task. This is not the first time we have come to Ibrox and had players sent off for little or nothing.
“So today has been soured. I congratulate Rangers on their win, I haven’t got a problem with that, but there are mitigating circumstances in why they have won.”
