Such a Lennon thing to say, blame everyone else and deny any responsibility

As the pinned tweet above points out the @siamesebhoy Twitter account definitely isn’t being run by Neil Lennon.
It is certainly an easy assumption to make.
Almost every tweet makes some reference to the former Celtic manager, the others are sympathetic to contacts of Lennon and highlighting how difficult a job management is.
Over the weekend the account, which resembles the writing style of @greatpantheon18 was especially busy. Martin Reilly, Lennon’s agent has made one visit to Twitter since trying to defend Celtic’s 2-0 derby defeat last October.
This weekend turned up a couple of useful anniversaries, in 2019 Celtic won away to Lazio which fell seven years after Tony Watt delivered a famous win at home to Barcelona.
Siamesebhoy couldn’t resist highlighting those anniversaries. Self-pity seems to be the starting point for the account wallowing in the successes of an out of work manager.
It is now more than eight months since Lennon resigned from Celtic, on the back of his second defeat of the season to Ross County. It seems that management offers have been very thin on the ground.
Some media work has come Lennon’s way but former team-mates Chris Sutton and John Hartson seem to have the most lucrative gigs tied up.
As a fall-back Lennon has his friends at Radio Scotland to call on but laughing and joking with Kenny MacIntyre and Tom English is a bit of a come-down for one of Europe’s top coaches and managers.
Two years ago tonight Celtic beat Lazio in Rome. The only time the club has won on Italian soil. Done it with a great bunch of players playing great football. Not bad with a ‘dinosaur’ in the dugout.

Seriously, though, are you Neil or Neil’s stalker?

Every dinosaur has his day…the animals across the city had a season full of those days last season because of that dinosaur in the dug out

With a bunch of players that ended up hating the manager that much they wanted to leave

9 years ago today Celtic beat Barcelona and would go onto the CL Last 16. No Scottish team matched that since. Only person to manage and play for a Celtic team to beat Barca? pic.twitter.com/9M6kryNBOV

Another big challenge for Celtic at Dens today. Dundee are a decent outfit. Be interesting to see Jason Cummings play. Should have been a superstar. So composed in front of goal. Has not kicked on as would have hoped.

Happy to see Greg Taylor sign a new deal at Celtic. Same people who were beside themselves with anger at Anthony Ralston getting an extension in the summer are now in a frenzy over this. Greg has a good mentality and a great appetite for the game. He will do well when back fit.
