Lennon attacked at Aberdeen-St Johnstone match in Edinburgh

Scum. Second time he's been attacked there (different fans this time, presumably).
quote:
Celtic boss Neil Lennon has had to leave Tynecastle Stadium early after fans began throwing coins and spitting on him.
Lennon was along watching the semi-final between Aberdeen and St Johnstone when the incident took place.
This is the second time that he has been targeted at Tynecastle, he was attacked in May 2011 when Celtic played Hearts.
One witness said “It disgusting, the guy was just along to watch the game and gets targeted by so called football fans. This should not happen in this day and age, I was at the game for the duration and didn’t even know he was there until this started”

SB gives no fricks
might be karma for Celtic fans acting like jackasses on away matches the last two years then crying foul when something happens to them.

United fans sung about Hillsborough. LFC fans have sung about Munich. So its all good when Moyesie and Rodgers get shite thrown at them at the FA Cup semis? Don't be retarded.

It's the SPL, so it's going to be hard for anyone to drum up much outrage on here.
Yeah, people suck and he shouldn't have to deal with that, but it's a largely irrelevant story to 95 percent of us.

But random threads about about Serbian racism, the NPL First division, and Abramovich's wife seem to garner enough interest. Its just the SB being the SB. If the SPL is mentioned, even if its interesting or thought provoking, its the cool kid thing to talk shite about it.

Three issues, I think:
1. All SPL threads turn into pissing matches
2. SPL incidents are more frequently mentioned here, i.e., alert fatigue
3. The incidents are generally more nuanced

This.
Honestly, I don't care what league this is, this story is not interesting or thought-provoking to me.

A lot of people seem to hate Lennon.

Yeah it used to be that way when TN was a complete lunatic. He's mellowed out now and everyone still treats him like he's Charles Manson.

I find this absolutely hilarious considering the uproar on this board over coins being thrown at United players during the Manchester Derby.
Posted on 2/1/14 at 3:16 pm to BleedPurpleGold
No, it's still that way. It's not as fierce, but TN and SCH still go rounds.
Weaker streams, but they're still pissing matches.

I don't remember being part of that uproar, but you might still have that thread bookmarked or something so you could prove me wrong. I don't know.
I remember loving the Joe Hart moment with the pitch invader.
I get it, you're a Celtic fan. That's fine. Just don't expect a lot of uproar from those outside the Old Firm. Would you care so much about this story if it was about a coach from, say, Turkey?

It was more a general comment than directed specifically at you. I don't recall you being one of them.

I'm not even really a fan anymore. I don't follow Celtic now that the league is a snooze fest without Rangers. I just can see the soccer board for what it is. Everyone claims the SPL threads are stupid because no one cares about the SPL. But when other stories from backwoods Europe find their way into their own threads they get 10+ responses. I find it ironic. That's all.

Yes. Just like half of this board would.

Fair enough.

Okay, I'll give you half.
Went back to the 2012 Manchester Derby Thread, and this was my most outraged post on the coin throwing:

As I said, it was just an example of a similar situation in which people responded to. I didn't mean to make it out to be specifically directed at you.

Things that are never funny on the SB:
1) Hillsborough, Munich, Heysel, etc.
2) People getting attacked for no reason
3) Insinuations that Stu Holden is into women
4) Randy Savage

exactly what i was getting at
we just dont care around here. Celtic fans act like trash but are the first to cry wolf. Should it have happened of course not.
