Investigation launched into Lennon attack

Scottish football authorities today began an investigation into events at Tynecastle last night after Celtic manager Neil Lennon was attacked by a fan during his side’s 3-0 win in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League.

After Gary Hooper scored his second goal in the 49th minute, a supporter came out of the main stand and made straight for Lennon, sparking a fracas which also involved first-team coach Alan Thompson, police and stewards.
