Lennon tremendously proud to join elite Celtic managerial group

Celtic manager Neil Lennon was in a buoyant mood after his side finished off the Scottish season on Sunday with a 3-1 win over Dundee United.

The Glasgow giants have completed a brilliantly successful campaign which delivered a third straight title and prompted words of pride from the Northern Ireland tactician.

"It's very special to win any sort of trophy," he said.

"For a long time in the '80s and '90s, it was a struggle for us but now we are very productive in terms of picking up trophies and being successful on and off the field.

"I'm very proud to have joined that select band of Celtic managers. I'm one of the few who have been privileged enough to do this job and when you are here you want to make the most of it.

"We can be pretty proud of what we have achieved in the last four years."
