Bullard deal not dead - Lennon

15 July 2010 11:01
Celtic manager Neil Lennon has not shut the door on a deal for Jimmy Bullard despite expressing frustration with the demands of some modern-day players. Bullard`s loan move from Hull collapsed after the midfielder demanded money on top of his City wages - which reportedly would have taken his weekly income to £75,000. Speaking generally, Lennon said: "We all played for the love of the game. But then all these outside influences come on board. "I can understand people wanting to secure their futures, of course I do, but how much money can you earn?" He added: "Everything was agreed with Hull and he wanted a bit more but the door is still open for Jimmy if he wants to reconsider."
