Couple of Hibs fans at work saying him and Dempster had a right old barney after his antics at the last Tynie derby.

 

Not sure if our beloved SFA's inaction at the time has benefited or worsened the position to where Lennon / Hibs / Dempster are at now.

 

 

 

Hibs paymasters  had, had enough of his behaviour, and were tired of defending the indefensible, the antics at Tynecastle were the final straw,  He then lost the dressing room and Leanne took the chance to get rid, he wont be back,  but there is no chance any other club will risk now total busted flush now.

Can he actually be replaced with a permanently while there is still HR and legal processes to go through? 

No he can't. 

 

Otherwise he'd gave a strong claim for constructive dismissal. Hibs suspending him is the start of a discipline process so they'll let that run to it's natural conclusion, which will probably be some settlement agreement which suits both parties.

He shouldn't get a penny imo.

He allegedly assaulted another member of staff and verbally abused his immediate superior.

What other job in the world would an employee get a compensation package after that.

Open and shut case.

Spot on.  If the rumours are true about what he allegedly did to Kamberi and said to Dempster, he might also be getting a visit from the Police.

No such thing unless Hibs want to find themselves  being sued for either breach of contract or unlawful dismissal. 

 

Hibs will be conducting a fact finding interview where all parties will be asked to give their version of events in writing. Only after that will any discipline charges follow. Suspending Lennon makes sure that everyone has enough time to gather facts / put their side / name witnesses etc. 

 

If the charge is Gross Misconduct, and he is found guilty, there are a number of options available to Hibs, including summary dismissal. Lennon will have the right to appeal.

That Keith Jackson article's brutal! He acknowledges that we don't know what actually happened, but hibs should be ashamed of themselves anyway for risking lennon's career!

:cornette:

Of course hibs should be ashamed of themselves, but that's just a general truism, nothing to do with this. Jackson's a rhino sized arse.

I presumed as much that just now Hibs cannot do a thing to replace him officially, hopefully the process is strung out and takes a while

 

Eddie May was a clear as it comes stating he did not want the job on the Radio on Saturday, not sure he will be pleased being asked to take it for longer that expected.  Ideal

Unless both parties come to a "settlement agreement" (formerly known as a Compromise Agreement), this week will be used up by Fact Finding then Disciplinary Hearing. Written Decision will then be issued with an Appeal window if it goes against Lennon.

 

I think Eddie May will be in the dug out for a couple of weeks at least.

Nothing to stop them.  The worst that could happen is that they will have to pay up his contract. 

The whole thing depends on what actually happened last week and possibly earlier.   The two parties can come to an agreement on what form, and in what sums, the divorce takes. If an agreement cannot be reached, NL has recourse to an employment tribunal (assuming they sack him) who will decide what he is and is not due and in making their judgment will take into account the gravity of his indiscretion(s) and any previous warnings he has had re the execution of his duties.

At the moment however, he is just suspended which technically means he is still manager so the appointment of a new manager is inappropriate unless and until his contract is terminated.

No more word coming out of San Giro or their cowshed? Imagine he will be given 7 days to prepare his defence.

I wonder if the rumours of what was said / done are true. 

 

I wouldn't put it past him with his track record.

Can someone give more details of the rumours?

 

Am I right to think he's thrown a chair at Leanne Dempster then made disparaging remarks about Kamberi's sexuality?

Could use them taking points off Aberdeen this week to be honest.

 

Seem to remember Terry of TBGWA fame was placed on garden leave, a successor was appointed with a new job title, Stubbsy must have been

16 pages, too many posts to check.

 

Can we clarify if the alleged thrown chair, struck its intended victim, on the chin or the chest, and did the victim lie prone for many seconds as if mortally wounded?

He wouldn't last long without the support of a sycophantic media, which he wouldn't get here.
He can pi$$ off back to Norn Irn and then sunk without trace.

What I've read from social media (which obviously a lot of the time can be taken with a pinch of salt) is that he was sexist / homophobic. To whom, I'm not sure though.

From all the wee ITK snippets the one thing I'm getting is that lennon's furious and about to go into jilted lover mode. 

 

How good would an ugly, bitter battle be?

An open and shut case on something that so far only ‘allegedly’ happened ?

I know! As much as we all find this amusing,  Lennon still has Employment Rights. 

 

Amanda Jones sits on the Hibs Board. She's a lawyer that specialises in Employment Law &  Discrimination. I'd imagine this is being done in a proper manner.

If the rumours are true about the confrontation and the homophobic remarks I hope it all comes out and he is shown up for what he his, an utter hypocrite. A guy who discusses the impact of depression but indulges in bullying and speaks out about sectarianism but indulges in homophobia. He is the worst kind of  opportunist scum and Scottish society would be far better off without him.

Allegedly a player spat on Mr Lennon, then there was an eruption of ginger fury.

And let's not forget the alleged "throwing of a chair" by someone who, very recently, pointed to the dangers of throwing coins. Memory shorter than his temper if there's anything at all in these allegations.

You're bang on the money. His, I mean keith Jackson, article is a joke.

He may very well be a nice guy, and he was decent as a pundit for the BBC, but the troubles that he's endured (which you can't condone) is more to do with how he's perceived, as opposed to straight out sectarianism/ racism. 

If that was the case then wee pat fenlon at all would get just the same..

Will be interesting to see how it develops, especially if there is acrimony & lawyers involved..

Before the victim got up went about his business then afterwards admitted to the rest of the players he’d faked it

He and Murray said they didn’t want to do it on Sunday, they were reminded that they would be in breach of contract if they didn’t. I would imagine those two will be joining Lennon&Parker on the Buroo in the near future. Love it, been a while since they’ve been in crisis.

Fair enough, he shouldn’t have a high pressure job with his issues anyway.
