Lennon defiant as Old Firm end in stalemate

NEIL LENNON has described as “nonsense” claims by Rangers boss Walter Smith that a campaign based on claiming for decisions and penalties led to Celtic’s spot kick award at Ibrox yesterday.

There were less than 10 minutes left when Hoops substitute Anthony Stokes, on for Gary Hooper, was adjudged by referee Craig Thomson to have been fouled by Light Blues’ midfielder Steven Davis in the box.

Allan McGregor made a great save from Georgios Samaras to keep the game goalless and Rangers a point clear at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League, although the title pendulum seems to have swung towards the east end of Glasgow as Celtic have a game in hand.
