Celtic fans criticise Neil Lennon for usage of Timo Weah against Livingston

Celtic failed to overcome Livingston on Saturday afternoon at Parkhead as the two sides drew 0-0 despite the Scottish champions dominating proceedings – and Hoops fans have criticised Neil Lennon.

Livingston’s excellent defence and former Rangers goalkeeper Liam Kelly were to thank as they held the Hoops to a draw. It was Lennon’s seventh game in charge since returning to Celtic in February.

He has now drawn two of those matches and won the other five, including a 0-0 draw with Aberdeen. Many fans are of the opinion that a bit of fluidity is lacking – with Celtic scoring just nine goals in those seven games.

Lennon finally turned to his bench just after the hour mark. But he failed to bring USA international Timo Weah onto the field of play until the 71st minute.

Weah has been in fine form since joining Celtic on loan from French champions Paris Saint-Germain in the January transfer window. He has scored four goals in 14 outings, including the first in the 2-0 win over St. Mirren.

Celtic fans are impressed with Weah, with his pace, trickery and eye for goal certainly catching the eye and exciting supporters. But many of the fanbase have criticised manager Lennon for failing to bring on Weah earlier against Livi.
