Lennon 4/6 with Bet Victor right now.

But then again both Ferguson and Woodgate have been odds on previously too.

If they can fling enough money at someone that one of them bites, it has all the makings for an even more farcical relegation than last time

(PS Woodgate was a non-starter)
I did hear that Woodgate wasn't even the frame. Heard at the same time Lennon was interviewed on Monday but that's all.

I really hope Lennon isnt the new manager. His win record in England, with Bolton is 23%

He appears to be a not very nice character, being involved in various unsavoury incidents

Not for me, I'm afraid

Would he come to LOFC even if people thought it a good appointment?

He would be a disaster. Pumped out of Hibs, failed at Bolton, ruined Celtic. Has a tremendous thirst.

Apparently a lot of broken promises at Bolton. Not sure if it affected him.

Please not Neil Lennon. He's not very good at his job. Won titles with Celtic when there was no real competition. The minute Rangers started to get their act together his lack of managerial talent was exposed. We have to do better than that.

Am surprised if he really is a serious candidate, from what I know of him he doesn't feel like a good fit for the club.

Good job we're not competing for the Scottish title, tbh

Interesting end of article- that when things went wrong at Celtic, it was not his fault, it was covid (did other clubs not have a lockdown owing to covid?), players lack of discipline ( Isn't this part of his job as a manager - ie to keep players disciplined?), lack of money etc.

Seems to be a bit like Steve Bruce and one of life's unfortunate victims, unless things go well, when its all down to his genius

So simply, he got interviewed and has wasted our time when we are in serious trouble. Screw him.

An interview is a 2 way thing. Its for both parties to find more out about the other and whether they want to work together. Lennon has no more wasted Orient's time, than Orient have wasted the time of anyone they spoke to but chose not to employ
