Neil Lennon has launched a staunch defence of the Scottish game in the face of criticism from talkSPORT pundit and former Celtic striker Tony Cascarino, pictured.

Cascarino, who struggled during his spell at Parkhead, played down Brendan Rodgers’ side’s record 63-match domestic unbeaten run. The former Republic of Ireland international said: “To justify this great run they’ve been on – well, who have they actually beaten? Beating Ross County and St Johnstone when the team’s miles ahead, it means nothing”.

Lennon acknowledges the financial gulf but believes the quality, drama and atmosphere of the game in Scotland is something of which to be proud.

“It is disrespectful. How much Scottish football does Tony watch?” said Lennon. “To go 63 games at any level is remarkable. Celtic are an excellent side and they proved that with a few games in the Champions League.

“We’re not getting the money the English clubs can get but the Scottish game is improving. It’s getting healthier. You only have to look at the calibre of manager working up here.

“I find the competition and the quality of the games really refreshing. We don’t need people from down south lecturing us on how the game is up here.

“There is still that rawness here. There is still that passion. It’s still a working-class sport up here. You don’t have too many prawn sandwich brigades, who kill the soul of the game. I’ve been to a lot of grounds in England where the atmosphere is awful.”

Lennon added: “I’ve seen some absolute rubbish in England. Rubbish.

“Over the weekend, there were three or four 1-0s. I watch some games in the Championship and the football is eye-bleeding, whereas I have seen some really good games up here.”

VIRGIL VAN DIJK returns to Aberdeen full of good memories.

One stand-out is the day he scored the 90th-minute winner at Pittodrie in 2014, to shatter the Dons and spark the first sight of the Ronny Deila Roar.

In the Hoops with him that day were Charlie Mulgrew, Scott Brown, James Forrest and Callum McGregor.

Back then they were team-mates, but tonight they will be international foes.

Southampton’s £50million-rated stopper relished his time at Parkhead before heading to Saints, earning Celts a club record £13m fee.

Van Dijk, 26, said: “It is nice to be back in Scotland again.

“I had some great times here with Celtic. I have also scored some big goals for Celtic up at Pittodrie.

“So it is also good to come back to Aberdeen, especially with the Dutch national team.

“It will be good to play against Scotland and see some of my old Celtic team-mates, like Scott Brown and the boys.

“I haven’t had much contact of late with Scott, but it will be good to see him again.

“Celtic have been unbelievable over the last two seasons.

“They have done superbly, and I always look out for their results.

“When you play for Celtic your love for the club never goes away.

“They have made great strides under Brendan Rodgers.

“Celtic made history last week with the unbeaten run, and that was great to see.

“It shows how strong they are, and hopefully they can keep going.

“They have had some good games in the Champions League against some top teams.

“It is hard for them in Europe, but it is great to see them back in the Champions League.

“The club and the fans all deserve to be at that stage.”

Van Dijk remains close friends with Nir Bitton, the Hoops midfielder converted into a centre-half by boss Brendan Rodgers.

Bitton likes to try and play the ball from the back just like his Dutch pal, and recently joked he’s now the £50m man.

Van Dijk has passed on good advice to the Israeli about playing the role, and it’s been clear in recent weeks just how well Bitton’s listened to him.

Against Bayern Munich last week, he was one of Celtic’s best players, and it’s obvious he’s fast growing in confidence playing at the back.

It’s also been impressive that Bitton’s shone in a strange position, despite having multiple partners at the heart of the Hoops defence.

Holland stopper Van Dijk’s delighted for his friend, and revealed they have got holiday plans for next summer.

Van Dijk added: “I told Nir it is not that easy to play at centre-half, but he is a good player.

“I speak to him a lot and we are probably going on holiday together as well.

“He is a good friend of mine, and it is good to see him playing so well.

“Hopefully, he can keep doing what he is doing because he is a top player.”

Van Dijk insists he and his Dutch team-mates aren’t exactly in Aberdeen to take things easy.

Another failure to reach a major finals has piled the pressure on Holland stars from fans more used to their national team pushing to WIN competitions.

Holland, despite still possessing big names such as Wesley Sneijder, look a team on a downward spiral.

But Van Dijk’s promised they are here to sort out the Scots.

Van Dijk said: “We have a good strong squad here. We know we face a good Scotland team, but we are here to win.”

Falkirk forward Kevin O'Hara has been handed an eight-match ban for "excessive misconduct" by a Scottish FA disciplinary tribunal.

The charge relates to the verbal abuse of Dunfermline's Dean Shiels in a Challenge Cup match on 7 October.

In 2006, former Rangers and Hibernian forward Shiels had an operation to remove his right eye, which was damaged in a childhood accident.


You can guess what the abuse was about.


There are some amount of arseholes in the World.

It's alright, the scum hordes will mobilise and come to their rescue, just like they did when they saved their own team

Girls on Pointless jackpot round won, because one of their boyfriends is a massive Celtic fan and said any football question just say Henrik Larsson 😂
Question was goalscorers at Euro 2000.

An 8 match ban? For verbal abuse? In a country where you can literally punch someone on the pitch and get less than 5 games for a ban?

Jayden Stockley gave Tierney a broken jaw and got what? A Yellow card? But saying some horrible stuff to someone gets you 8 matches?

Players insulting each other on the pitch - this must be a new thing, hence the ban.

Pointing and someone and abusing them for only having one eye isn't really on to be fair.
