Dunfermline defender Greg Shields has slammed Neil Lennon for taunting Pars players about his wealth.

Shields accused the Celtic captain of being disrespectful during Celtic's 3-0 win in the CIS Insurance Cup final on Sunday.

Dunfermline players were furious with Lennon's reported accusations and Shields insists all the club's players do not like the former Northern Ireland international.

"Lennon was bang out of order towards his fellow professionals during the game.

"He had a fly kick at Lee Makel and one of the boys said something to him about it.

"He responded by saying he was a rich so-and-so. I told him he was unprofessional and should never speak to people like that, especially ones he's sharing a pitch with.

"But he kept going on about how rich he was and telling us he was minted. For someone to be Celtic captain and talk this way is not on.

"You never heard it from Paul McStay or any other Celtic skipper. I would never envisage hearing something like that from Roy Keane, either.

"Lennon was out of order and that's why I was mad at him. I avoided him at full-time and there was no chance I was going to shake his hand. You can call mea bad loser but I don't want to be in the company of people who are like that.

"Lennon could learn a few things from Keane. He's a true sportsman and you can see he's played at the highest level.

"Neil Lennon's only played at Leicester. The bad feeling towards him in our dressing room is unbelievable.

"Celtic were trying to celebrate the win for Jimmy Johnstone and fair play, they won it for him.

"But it's disappointing from my point of view to have to share the pitch with someone like Lennon."
