Yet again wasnt sure about our line up , but the manager has got the big calls right again , even down to the signing of Barney Stewart, maybe this guy knows what hes doing, very impressive , what a change in fortunes and attacking play 👏

There`s been a few games this season where he`s got the team selection or set up wrong, but he generally holds his hands up and admits when he`s made a mistake, which is pretty refreshing.
He doesn`t throw the players under the bus, but he will be objectively critical of them in his analysis, which is also refreshing.
It seems like he`s getting a handle on his best starting 11 (15?). If we get a period of stable selections we could go on a decent run.

I’m pretty sure Lennon picks the team according to the opposition. And what players are fit and trained well. I’d be surprised to see the same starting eleven two games running.

As NL has said its a squad game. He seems to rotate players dependent of the opposition, and niggles that if players played week in week out could lead to longer term injuries. He keeps everyone on board and leaves the door open for fringe players to get game time. You need to keep the squad match fit and sharp so 20-25 minutes game time also keeps players ticking over. We have a good squad with depth so doubt a regular starting 11 will happen.

The key to being able to change the starting line up week in, week out, is knowing that every man knows his job and fully understands where he’s playing and who he’s playing with. I think that’s maybe why Amade and Caceres are not currently in the starting line up. They are clearly very talented players but may not quite understand what the manager wants yet. If and when they fit the team plan, we will have a very formidable side.

Im not sure if we have a best starting 11 as such. I think he’s got a few different ways of playing and is picking players to suit tactics/opposition.

I`m the same, he`s brought a level of professionalism to us we haven`t seen for years, and the football is great to watch with more to come hopefully..
I still think we will lose some, have some stinkers etc. we are an incredibly young team, but if we are around the playoffs this season, that`s huge progress.

Absolutely loving Lenny at the club. Can tell he really cares, I think he loves the city, he`s passionate and really into what the club is trying to achieve. I think under him we will get there.
As a sideline. What`s happening with Josh Cooper? Not heard his name mentioned in a while.

Cooper is injured.
I don`t think it`s just Lenny, the club generally seems in a better position. Of course, it could go wrong and we lose games etc but we seem headed in the right direction under this ownership and the management team.
My only criticism is money still needs spent on the stadium. I understand it`s separately owned, but it`d be great to see the seats red again! I believe you can flame them but this might also make them brittle.

The new owners have spent money on the stadium? New screens, Sky in the lounges, drinks guns in the catering outlets, the seating areas seem to get cleaned a lot more regularly, the PA seems to be working better... and that`s without talking about the playing surface.
On Lennon, he is good to listen to and seems quite honest (albeit a bit too positive for some people). I gave up listening to post match interviews and pre match previews but have found muself watching them with Lennon (and Bruntskill, who is also good in front of the camera). I think he thought he`d have a few more experienced players to work with but agents have read into stuff wrong and priced themselves out a move. I can see a few of those players looking to maybe come on board in January if we are still in a good place. It`s just good to have a bit of positivity and for us to score some goals for a change.

Also being the Dunfermline manager seems to be doing no harm to his standing as a tv pundit, where it looks like he`s in big demand.

Fair point. I just want the red seats back. I`ve always fancied some D-A-F-C writing too but the best place would be the main stand, which isn`t the right layout for it.
One of the main benefits I see of Lennon is he raises the profile of the club. He`s well known, liked and respected (unless you support Rangers) and he`s someone who will attract talent to the club.

That`s one thing you can`t do in Glasgow Fethiyespar, is to get a leopard to change his spots (or should that be hoops?).

Dont think or expect any former player to change either tbh. Listen to Sportsound on a Saturday and they all have their leanings.

Im more than happy with Lennons conduct since he came to the Pars more importantly ,the way he has us playing, we will not win every week ,but it is a lot more enjoyable going to EEP these days.

Not sure if i picked it up right , but i thought Lennon said Calum Osmund who scored for Celtic today had the offer to come to us ,but decided to stay and fight for a first team place .

Lennon: "“I just want to talk about that young man there (Osmand)
“I was a wee bit interested in wanting to take him on loan, but he backed himself to be in the squad, and all of a sudden he’s at the forefront there."
to me he was an obvious one to ask about in the summer so not a surprise there was interest, shame it didnt happen.

I wouldn’t expect him to.
It’s what he does with us that’s important.
Jimmy C was quite clear who he really loved but didn’t stop him doing a great job.
