NEIL LENNON has laughed off the conspiracy theories he manufactured his exit from Hibs in anticipation of joining Celtic not a month later.
It has been a year since the Irishman left the Easter Road club, little did he know at the time it was putting him on a trajectory to be the man to seal the treble treble.
The Celtic manager can look at it a year on and not have any regrets. He brought Hibernian back up from the Championship and had a top first season in charge of the team. It all went south during the second season in the SPFL and they parted ways.
Neil Lennon has knocked Hibernian out of a competition since then on his way to winning more trophies.
Speaking about the turn of events leading to his Celtic Park move, Neil Lennon laughed off the comments about a conspiracy.
“Oh yeah, me, Brendan and Claude Puel all got together to say you leave there, and I’ll go in there… As if that’s going to work. A good conspiracy but unfortunately not true.” Lennon told Recordsport.
There are conspiracies in Scottish football but that ain’t one of them
There is more of this happening than not. Rodgers new 3 months in advance, and Lennon was cheap as chips money saved
