Lennon regrets Scottish Cup rant

Neil Lennon has expressed regret over the incident at the end of the Scottish Cup semi-final defeat to Hearts at Hampden a fortnight ago which is likely to see him hit with another touchline ban, according to first-team coach Alan Thompson.

The Celtic manager will serve the second of his current two-match suspension when he sits in the Parkhead stand against Rangers tomorrow.

However, Lennon learned on Thursday he faces three more charges following the Jambos defeat which saw him run on to the pitch to confront referee Euan Norris over a late penalty award to the Gorgie side, and for comments later made on social networking site Twitter.
