Lennon cool on treble chance

Sun, 05 Feb 13:42:35 2012

Neil Lennon might wish to play it down but he watched his Celtic side take another confident step towards the treble with a 2-0 William Hill Scottish Cup fifth-round win at Inverness on Saturday.

Celtic are already in the final of the Scottish Communities League Cup final where they will play Kilmarnock at Hampden next month, and are one point above Rangers at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League with a game in hand.

And having gone 15 domestic games unbeaten the Parkhead men are in fine fettle ahead of their SPL game against Hearts at Tynecastle in midweek, the scene of their last SPL defeat in October.

Lennon said: "Things can change very quickly but we are really pleased with where we are at the minute.

"It was the toughest tie we probably could have had, apart from being at Ibrox, so I'm thrilled to get through it.

"We wanted to be in all the competitions at the end of Saturday, that was the remit before the game, and we are so it's good. But there is a long way to go yet."
