Neil Francis Lennon (born 25 June 1971) is a Northern Irish football coach and former player who is the manager of Scottish Premiership club Celtic. During his playing career he represented English clubs Manchester City, Crewe Alexandra and Leicester City.
Lennon moved to Scottish club Celtic in 2000, where he made over 200 appearances and was appointed captain in 2005. Before retiring as a player, he returned to England and played for Nottingham Forest and Wycombe Wanderers. Lennon made 40 appearances for Northern Ireland in nine years, scoring two goals. Lennon was appointed manager of Celtic in March 2010, initially in a caretaker capacity after the departure of Tony Mowbray.
Neil Lennon's greatest achievement as a manager but he still found the time to offer some support to an old pal. Lennon's Celtic take on Ross County at home this weekend and John Hughes will be in the opposing dugout after replacing Stuart Kettlewell.
The Staggies boss was sacked on Saturday night in a call that surprised the Parkhead boss - and he's thankful Peter Lawwell and Dermot Desmond weren't so quick to pull the trigger in Glasgow's east end.
Lennon knows it's an unavoidable pitfall in the life of a football manager.After a damaging 2-0 defeat in the Betfred Cup to County last month, many would have predicted it would be the Hoops with a new man in place by the time the sides met again.
