dailyrecord.co.uk:

Celtic manager clearing his desk. Lennon is determined to fight on though. Quitting hasn’t crossed his mind and the club’s board have told him they have his back.

For now. So Celtic will rumble on, while the title and the hopes of 10-in-a-row dim by the day.But the alarm bells are even ringing for Lennon’s closest allies.

His former Hoops teammate Stiliyan Petrov was in the stands on media duties and was stunned at the lack of a response from the players in a period of intense pressure.

Petrov said: “The main disappointment would be the reaction of the players after the build up to the game.“I wanted to see if there was a change and how much urgency they had in the second half.“But if anything Saints grew in confidence.
