Right, there must be something in the water.
Whisky or something. Because readers may remember that yesterday I reported that there was one former Celtic legend that was in the betting to become the next Rangers manager.
You can read that here:
Ibrox next manager odds has Celtic legend in the running
And to be honest, I called it a ridiculous suggestion that Lennon would even consider it, never mind that people are actually betting on him becoming the next Ibrox manager.
But it seems it could be a thing!
Well, it’s not really. Celtic fans can smell blood and in no time at all have taken to resurrecting the ‘Banter Years’ relatively quickly.
Calling the Record Hotline, this (had to be) Celtic fan suggested this, “There’s only one man who can save Rangers.
“He knows the club and Scottish football well, would fire up the players with a passion, he’s got a point to prove against Celtic and he’s currently without a club.
“It’s a no-brainer. The Ibrox side should replace Giovanni van Bronckhorst with Neil Lennon.”
Now I know I was writing tongue-in-cheek yesterday but even the suggestion is just where the two clubs are at, at the moment.
Celtic are in a superior position domestically looking to add to an already rampant squad whilst our rivals scramble about looking for a new manager.
No doubt, there will be more of this kind of wind-up until the new manager is announced so we’ll continue to enjoy the ensuing meltdown from across the city.
