Neil Lennon will not be in the dugout for Hibs’ match against bottom-of-the-table St Mirren on Sunday.
News broke last night that the Head Coach had been suspended pending an investigation following a heated team meeting at the club’s training centre earlier that day.
Neither the club nor Lennon have made any comment and it is unclear who will take charge of the team in Paisley.
Lennon has been in charge at Easter Road since 2016 following the resignation of Alan Stubbs.
He guided the club to the Championship title in his first season and finished fourth in the Premiership in the 2017-18 campaign, winning a record number of points. This season he has had to contend with numerous injuries and prior to his suspension he gave an interview stating that the club needed new players in the transfer window with the squad down to 13 senior players.
John graduated from Telford College in 2010 with an HNC in Practical Journalism and since then he worked for the North Edinburgh News, The Southern Reporter, the Irish News Review and The Edinburgh Reporter. In addition he has been published in the Edinburgh Evening News and the Hibernian FC Programme.
