Hours after upsetting the sensitivities of Sevco fans Neil Lennon has been filmed mimicking his ‘aeroplane dance’ in a pub!

With assistant manager Gary Parker in a pub among a group of fans the Irishman watched Jamie MacLaren score Hibs’ fifth goal of the day on television then launched on to the unlikeliest of goal celebrations.

Lennon, with his arms outstretched ran onto the pitch, took a D-tour towards the Sevco support then returned towards the centre of the pitch before fourth official Bobby Madden ordered him to watch the closing minutes from the stand.

While he chose to impersonate an aeroplane the match had been a roller-coaster with Hibs racing into a 3-0 lead after 20 minutes before appearing to toss the match away.

Two late goals salvaged a point for the home side but after an afternoon of anti-Catholic and anti-Irish singing from the away support it was the ginger haired Irish Catholic that enjoyed the last laugh.
