After the fall of the Tony Mowbray regime, Neil Lennon was given the honour of rebuilding Celtic during a testing time.

On this day in 2010, Lennon took his new look team to play Killie at Rugby Park in Ayrshire. Ultimately, Lennon and Celtic would return to Glasgow with three points after a professional display.
