This is a hoax guys - even Watts has fallen for it.

Lennon was trending - being John Lennon - someone put some money down on Neil to get the market moving and then put it on twitter. Don't panic.

They must've put a fair bit down to get him into 3/1.

Don't take much for these football markets to move - not much actually gets spent on them - bookies do them for fun - £20 here and there can move the market.

Pepe the Horseman I'd rather see my family butchered than have Neil Lennon as our manager.

Can't help you with that specifically but I can recommend some fatal industrial accident videos on youtube if you like?

We could definitely have a bit of fun with this.

The new manager market is notoriously unpredictable McDonut is as low as 1/2 which would indicate the job is his but a tenner on any outsider would se their odds tumble, was hoping this would be sorted before Saturday , looks unlikely

Bolton are skint, receivers coming in. Probably told Lennon to apply for any job going so Bolton can negotiate some compensation to pay the players.

I'd be pretty confident placing a bet that McDermott won't be our next manager

I am sure if it was to be McDermott it would have been done and dusted by now - that's why I think its def someone else....

You'd have thought that given 3 weeks ago the whiskered wonder was talking to Fulham and the phone was supposedly ringing off the hook that it would have been pretty well lined up ready to go ...

Maybe because we've got so many good options we're weighing them all up and taking our time.

Or when they thought the phone was ringing off the hook it was actually the sound of a Dark-Eyed Junco bird that flew in through one of the windows Williams is always leaving open. Close the window Williams ffs

Yes that seems fair. I'm convinced this team will go on a winning run now anyway now that Clarke's been dumped. Kuhl will do a good job while we're waiting.

Sutekh Neil Lennon anyone, bookies have just slashed his odds.

Off down the bookie myself now to put a shedload on Mark McGhee.



OMG anyone but Lennon.
