| 1. Author: cfad Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 11:24 Putting this post up to counter some of the criticisms from yesterday. Neil put out the team he thought would be best placed to win us the cup. It didn’t work out but he deserves our praise now the season is over and the dust has settled. He and his back room staff came in at the end of last year to keep us in the division when we were at serious threat of relegation - job done. 1 year later, Dunfermline are back on the map, and he’s given us Pars fans excitement and optimism for the way forward. Exceeded all expectations in his first season, and I’m sure there will be a few more stay away fans coming back to EEP next year after this season and after the cup final. Cheers Neil & team. Reply |

| 3. Author: Bannockburn Par Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 11:48 Honestly he has been box office for us. Best manager since Calderwood. Get right behind him and let’s win the league next season!!! Reply |
| 4. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 11:50 We couldn’t have a better manager.  It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 5. Author: KirklistonPar Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 12:47 It’s been an amazing season. So many great memories made along the way. Very excited to see who leaves and signs for next season. Hopefully we can get players in earlier this time so the whole team can get a full pre season under there belt. Very excited for next season and can’t wait to renew our season tickets. As a Pars fan seasons like this don’t come a long that often and I’m extremely grateful to Neil and all the coaches, back room staff, the players, the staff in the shop and everyone else who works for the club that we don’t see, and fellow supporters. You have all made EEP a great place to be on a Saturday afternoon. COYP! Reply |
| 6. Author: Angus_W Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 13:16 Couldn’t have a better manager….. Okay everything didn’t pan out yesterday but that’s fitba. NL & his team have created a framework that I believe will move this club forward over the next season. Exciting times ahead bring it on……. You’ve seen the Pars now please go home! Reply |

| 8. Author: da_no_1 Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 13:41 Someone posted elsewhere saying we need 10 signings or we`ll be nowhere near winning the league. Nonsense. Lennon gets the best out of players and will continue this next season. Add the Ox, replacements for Jerry and Kieran and another experienced striker (someone like Brian Graham/Tony Watt?) and we`ll be in with as good a chance as anyone. If Bene, Hammy, Deniz, Young, TOB etc are all moved on we`ll have room to add the better quality to the squad that we need to lead the way.

| 12. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 14:19 Thank you to our manager and players for giving us an unexpected meaningful May. I can wait for next season, I`m emotionally spent. Nice wee break from football, a quiet summer to recharge the batteries....there is nothing else happening right?  Reply |
| 13. Author: Jock Par36 Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 14:47 At last some people talking sense on the forum. It`s so refreshing instead of the idiots who are negative all the time. Neil Lennon is the new Jock Stein. Reply |
| 14. Author: Sacktheref69 Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 15:39 da_no_1, Sun 24 May 13:41 I think we need to build more quality off the bench. One of the big takeaways from the Partick second leg was that they brought on Tony Watt, while we brought on a kid who wasn’t even old enough to wear the club sponsor. If we want to challenge, we need better quality off the bench. I trust Lenny and the recruitment team will be on it already. This is Andy Tod`s world and we are lucky to live in it.

| 15. Author: GG Riva Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 16:34 Easily our best season since 2010/11. A great achievement when you consider where we`ve been during the years in between. Thank you, Gaffer.  Not your average Sunday League player. Reply |
| 16. Author: AdamAntsParsStripe Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 16:40 The majority of champions in our league get off to a flyer and set a marker for the rest to follow. Whenever we’ve won it we won the opening fixtures at a canter and this is something we have to aim for. Zwei Pints Bier und ein Päckchen Chips bitte  Reply |
| 17. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 16:52 AdamAntsParsStripe, Sun 24 May 16:40 Yes agreed. You also saw the same thing with Fergusons MU team when they won the English PL. They were ready from day one to hit the ground running. All of our ducks need to be lined up in terms of players through the door if we ate to be serious. If you are going to do it, do it well.

| 18. Author: Malcolm Canmore Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 17:11 I really cannot thank Mr Lennon enough. We have had some terrific times this season - too many to list. He said that getting us back into the Premiership was a two-year project. Well it seems to me that we are much more than halfway there. Semifinals of the premiership playoffs and the Scottish Cup Final. So, thank you Mr Lennon. I hope the upcoming season card sales period shows how much the supporters appreciate what has been achieved. My dog eats meat Reply |
| 19. Author: Paralex Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 17:25 Yes, seeing the black and white clad multudes out in force at Hampden yesterday was brilliant and largely down to great manager. And it seems that being our manager hasn`t done his own profile any harm either. So it`s a win win. Reply |
| 20. Author: thebear Date: Sun 24th May 2026. 17:33 I think having the season we had and also having lennon as manager, makes us credible. Credible means better players will join. Reply |
