Dystopian pish from the SFA again. We all know why Lennon got shafted here and it’s not because anything he said was wrong.

You are so very correct unfortunately. Fair play my a**e.

When Brendan Rodgers was hauled up to Hampden on the same charge for calling the referee and VAR incompetent (I think at Tynecastle), he got a one match immediate and one match suspended. What`s good for the goose?

I wonder what the Panel`s view was on the AR allegedly making a disparaging remark about one of our backroom staff and what action, if any, was taken against him?

If Neil Lennon was still at Celtic no way would he have got such a lengthy ban for these comments.

SFA a total joke

It`s great that we are a football club again and all this passionate mental stuff is happening rather than that "true and living sportsmanship" pash we had to put up with under the German occupation.

On the positive side, the severity of the ban might provoke a reaction from the players and a "we`ll show `em" attitude.

Surely could appeal on those grounds?

So - let`s get this straight.

1. Man performs job incompetently.

2. Another man gets asked about the incompetent performance and agrees it was incompetent.

3. The same man performs the same job incompetently a few weeks later.

4. The same man gets asked about the performance again and answers honestly providing examples of the incompetence.

5. The incompetent man`s boss agrees that the examples have been correctly interpreted by the man who was asked about them.

6. The incompetent man is promoted to perform the same role in a higher profile setting.

7. The man who was asked about the incompetence and answered honestly is banned for 6 matches.

Good process lads.

No surprise there. The SFA were always going to make an example of Lennon. He had previous and their rules prohibit any criticism of match officials even when it is perfectly justified. 😒



Not your average Sunday League player.

It`s mad to think a player can get a 3 game ban for a foul that could ruin a players career but Lennon, although doing it the wrong way, gets a 4 or 6 game ban for speaking the truth.

Is it any surprise we have no faith in the powers that be who run (or ruin) the game?!

Referees should be protected from unfair criticism. However, the Lennon examples were both a farce and it was admitted the ref was wrong. I trust Martindale will be getting a ban as well then?
