- Ross County defeat likely to be Lennon’s last match
- Celtic trail Rangers by 18 points in Premiership
Neil Lennon’s second tenure as the Celtic manager is to end imminently, with Sunday’s 1-0 defeat at Ross County likely to prove his last match in charge. Celtic lie 18 points behind champions-elect Rangers in the Scottish Premiership.
There was widespread expectation Lennon would leave at the end of this season. However, the defeat in Dingwall – County started the match bottom of the league – has triggered action from the Celtic board. John Kennedy, Lennon’s assistant, is likely to take charge for the remainder of this campaign.
