Ed you've made it very clear that your no fan of Lennon. If it was up to you, who would your choice be? Realistically of course. I know you wanted Bielsa but think you also said that was never going to happen.

{Ed007's Note - Phillip Cocu is available, so is AVB & Claudio Ranieri, they might not have been interested but we should have been finding out for definite. Even Moyes would have been a better appointment for the continuation of the high professional standards and youth development. As we know from experience Lennon's football won't be any better to watch than Moyes' would.
I kept saying that I would love to have seen a list of applicants or who had shown interest in taking over - now we find out Lawwell never even looked at it. Is that a CEO doing his job properly and doing what's best for the Club?
When, not if, this all goes Pete Tong Lawwell should lose his job over this.}

Its pure negligence IMO that he never looked at the names or interviewed any one for the job Stinks of biscuit tin mentality And it wouldn't surprise me if we had a big clear out and only brought in 2 new payers costing in total 5 million pounds Calls himself a supporter looks like the only thing he supports is the bank balance see how much he can have in it.

{Ed007's Note - The £9 million we got from Leicester for Rodgers will be the 'transfer warchest' 😂

Lawwell should hang his head when you see John mcginn play today.
Everything in a player we are looking for.
Let's hope we don't don't let Turnbull at Motherwell go the same way.

Do we know for certain that PL never looked at a list. Is it possible that certain targets like the ones you mentioned were contacted and said they weren't interested which is why we went with Lennon? Not saying I don't believe you, just wondered if that was a fact.

{Ed007's Note - It came from Lawwell's own lips:

"We had approaches from many, many agents, many representatives of managers across the board. How credible it was, you never really know. We put them in the file, just left it and kept our word to Neil, really."

Cheers Ed. That's really disappointing.

{Ed007's Note - It's baffling incompetency mate and once again it'll be the fans that suffer.}

Sounds like they offered Lenny the job a while ago on a permanent basis?

{Ed007's Note - It does mate.}
