It will look like deja vu for Lennon when he visits Fir Park to play Motherwell next week.
In 2011 Celtic visited Motherwell 15 points behind Rangers but we hand a game in hand.
I can remember Mark Hateley mentioned Neil Lennon would be out of a job come Guy Fawkes.
Celtic went a goal behind but we went on to win the game with Hooper scoring the winner with only 10 minutes to go.
Celtic never looked back and that victory was the start of 17 league wins in a row.
Celtic went on to win the league by 20 points although Rangers were deducted only 10 points for entering Administration.
Celtic were playing terrible back then and Lenny was probably only 10 minutes away from getting the sack.
I know it's massive this season but I still think Lennon needs more time to turn things around because he's done it before and given the chance he will do it again.

That Motherwell game was played on Celtic’s birthday ( November 6th )
And exactly one year later Lenny took Celtic to another level when we beat the best side in the world Barcelona on our 125th Birthday.
Lenny was 10 minutes away from the sack and within 12 months he took Celtic into the last 16 of the Champions League.
