After asking the best and most relevant to Neil Lennon at the pre-Hamilton media conference The Cynic has been denied access to today’s conference to look at the match against St Mirren.
Neil Lennon gave a very abrupt No, after a short pause he reeled off past successes while praising the well-run club when asked if he could understand why fans were frustrated and concerned at the way the season has developed.

It wasn’t even a hard or shocking question I guess he doesn’t like having to justify himself to the people who pay his inflated wages

@CelticFCSLO can you look in to the reasoning for this, for many fans you and @90MinuteCynic has been the fans voice over recent months, just because they ask challenging questions is no reason to lock them out of the conversation

All the usual media favourites such as BBC, STV, Radio Clyde, Press Association, Sky Sports and a few others like Peter Martin’s PLZ get an invite to the broadcast conference where they all get to ask some predictable questions.
The Cynic has been granted access a few times this season but it has been obvious how uncomfortable Lennon is when asked questions from the perspective of a fan.
After his explosive media conference before the away match at Livingston Celtic refused to upload the conference onto their You Tube Channel.
We had @DavFlan at today’s presser.
He asked Lennon about the huge discontent within the support being out of the title race at this point in such a monumental season.
