Rangers fans racially abused Lennon, claims O’Neill

CELTIC manager Martin O’Neill last night accused the Rangers supporters of racially abusing Neil Lennon in Saturday’s Old Firm derby.

His outburst was triggered by a question over his own post-match actions after the 2-0 defeat at Ibrox.

O’Neill was criticised for being ‘provocative’ after he led Lennon to the travelling contingent and repeatedly punched the air following the stormy match. And he claimed to have no regrets over the incident, instead complaining about the treatment his countryman received. Lennon is being investigated by police over some of his actions.
