CHRIS SUTTON has defended Neil Lennon over the past 48 hours but so has his old team-mate and assistant coach, Alan Thompson.

The former Celtic midfielder took to social media in the aftermath of the derby loss and was urging fans not to turn on Neil Lennon but instead blame Peter Lawwell.

Neil Lennon can get a rough ride of things at Celtic and there’s a group of our supporters who have always claimed he hasn’t been good enough. The avalanche of supporters on social media wanting to see the Celtic manager replaced is premature but people blindly defending him is also an issue.

Let’s not sugar coat anything, we’ve been poor this term so far and our performances are well below what’s expected.

There are people like myself who are in the middle. The manager has earned the right to try and get this team going but nobody is blameless at the moment.
