Mulgrew: 'Lennon will stay at Celtic'

Celtic defender Charlie Mulgrew expects manager Neil Lennon to stay, despite his insistence that he would resign if the fans wanted him to.

Celtic defender Charlie Mulgrew has said that he believes Neil Lennon will not leave his post as manager of the club.

Following the 1-0 defeat to Inverness Caledonian Thistle last weekend, Lennon claimed he would "do the honourable thing" and resign if the fans wanted him to.

The Northern Irishman was involved in a heated exchange with Bhoys fans following the weekend's defeat which prompted the statement, though Mulgrew has insisted that it was down to "the heat of the moment" and expects him to stay.

"I think it is heat of the moment," said Mulgrew. "Maybe they caught him straight after the game or whatever, with tempers running high it is something you say.

"But I don't think the manager will be leaving, he is right behind the cause here."

The Scottish champions face Hearts tomorrow night.
