Willie Collum Celtic newsCeltic boss Neil Lennon is looking forward to explaining his comments after the League Cup Final defeat from Kilmarnock.

Referee Willie Collum booked Anthony Stokes for simulation in injury time with the Celtic boss believing that his side should have been awarded a penalty.

Lennon was critical of the decision afterwards and has been asked to explain those comments to the SFA.

Despite other managers being much more critical of referees and other SFA officials the Celtic boss will have to appear before the SFA to answer questions about his after match comments.

“I’m looking forward to giving my response,” the hoops boss said. “I’ve got until the 30th of March to do that and will submit my response next week.

“I don’t think that I need to (explain myself) but if I need to I’ll go along and state my case. I look forward to stating my case before the panel.

Anthony Stokes was booked for diving and my players don’t cheat. I can’t tolerate them being accused of cheating when we have the best disciplinary record in the division.

I still say it was a penalty when Anthony went down and we have photographic evidence to prove that was the case.”

Sunday’s match with Rangers at Ibrox will be refereed by Calum Murray.

    Once again the powers that be at our now infamous SFA are showing how much they have it in for Celtic and Lennon when he is pulled up for less than mccoist and butcher said while they were not even questioned. There are a lot of people at the SFA who are gagging right now knowing how far ahead we are of the pack.

    They have tried real hard to stop the train but they can’t. They have made decisions to make your blood boil, like big Dan’s red card to reduce us to ten men when even the player he tackled said there was nothing wrong and no contact was made.

    They have watched the train go on and on and they are choking.

    The bigotry and bias that is the SFA is killing the game in small-minded scotland is alive and kicking, even as they stand with their sinking ship.

    They are blinded in their hatred of all things Celtic. They are no better than the retarded idiots who will almost certainly get off in court facing the attempted murder charges of Lennon and the others. The SFA are taking this game to the gutter.

    Congratulations to he bigots and cheats of the SFA. You are solely responsible for the fact the game is dying in your little bigoted country.
