Here’s how the fans reacted on social media:

@AidanSellik: “same, boring football. we badly need a new manager who brings in new ideas.”

@Mikey_Bhoy_1993: “Dont care if people say it's being negative, that was exactly the type of display we saw under Lennon (not least in our recent 1-0 win v Aberdeen). That's not a dig a Kennedy, more against any fellow Celtic fan who will falsely claim this is an improvement, he should be appointed.”

@DanManCelt: “Scoreline flattering the sheep. Lot more positives to take from this one though than the last one, just need to be more clinical. Eddy too greedy at the end, Klimala ST’s goal should I’ve stood, once again the big Norwegian doing a solid job at the back, job done, next.”

@jimbobnbh: “If that was Kennedy’s audition I saw nothing different from the Aberdeen game 10 days ago - same players, formation, subs - Lennon could’ve still been in the dugout going by how it all went.”

@jimbobnbh: “Edouard’s persistence of constantly trying to walk it in is seriously doing my head in. Needs a serious boot up the a*** from his teammates - be more of a team player or bench him.”

@pettyboy41: “Peter Lawell best stay the f*** away from the showers.”

@ScottKillen88: “Going to take a long time to phase out the lack of concentration, fitness and poor decision making up front that was symptomatic of Lennon's reign. The bright side? 3 points, and actual tactical substitutions to see out the game.”

@Daryl__O: “Good first win for Kennedy. Everyone moaning on here about a win just shows how entitled we are. Do you expect Kennedy to wave a magic wand and fix what Lennon ruined in one game?? Take it a game at a time & keep the head on.”

@JamesJMcNulty1: “Central defence looking good Welsh Ajer, midfield has always been good, Attacking, if we are intent on keeping tippytappyeddy we need a striker that will also score goals, we need a top striker in the summer.”
