Neil Lennon’s resignation as manager of Celtic has sparked thousands of words, tributes and emotions as the Irishman ends his active relationship with Celtic.
Lennon without Celtic and Celtic without Lennon is almost unthinkable but that will be the reality next month when the players return for pre-season training before the Champions League qualifiers in July.
Three championships and two Scottish Cup triumph’s barely scratch the surface for a remarkable period which took Celtic fans through every emotion and shone a torch into the darkest areas of Scottish society.
On the park the club was transformed by some fantastic signings that few fans had heard of before they arrived at Celtic Park. Who wouldn’t fancy the following XI to make a serious impact on the Champions League?
Fraser Forster: Mikel Lustig, Virgil Van Dijk, Charlie Mulgrew, Emilio Izaguirre: Scott Brown, Victor Wanyama, Stefan Johansen, Kris Commons: Gary Hooper, Anthony Stokes.
Lennon’s time as Celtic manager will never be forgotten, there are hundreds of never to be forgotten memories of a man who left unbeaten, unbowed and unrepentant.
