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.

Steven Gerrard's side can extend the gap to 23 points if they win at Motherwell on Sunday and even with three games in hand there's surely no way back for the reigning champions.
