Dermot seems to have a new favourite paper when it comes to leaking information. Anything coming from the majority shareholder’s camp seems to come through The Scottish Sun nowadays.
Speaking on the Huddle Podcast, SunSport chief sports journalist Derek McGregor believes Desmond will keep Neil Lennon in his position until the end of the season.
“Dermot Desmond had told Neil Lennon in the aftermath of the Ibrox loss he would get the opportunity to see out the season” Derek McGregor told Mark Wilson on the Huddle Podcast.
“At that point, Dermot had not seen the setbacks to Hibs and Livingston
“If there was a time for Dermot to pull the trigger it would have been immediately after the Livi draw, the fact that he hasn’t, Dermot looks like taking the position he doesn’t see the point in wholesale change now.
“I think they’ll feel sticking with Neil just now and in the meantime consider other options”
The Hoops fans have been looking for change to happen as soon as possible so we can start to rebuild if they don’t, season ticket renewals become very precarious for the club.
It doesn’t help the man making the ultimate decision is so detached from what’s going on ion the club on a day to day basis. It speaks to the bigger issue of having an absent decision-maker and an apathetic board who have no idea how the supporters are really suffering.
If Celtic fans need to suffer more tepid and embarrassing results between now and the end of the season, they are playing a very dangerous game.
To be honest, the silence from the club in general, telling us nothing is just as damaging.
