Celtic came within touching distance of clinching the championship with a 3-0 win over Hibernian on Saturday thanks to a Kris Commons double and a Mikel Lustig strike.But McFadden's 84th equaliser for Motherwell means the champagne will be put back on ice until April 20 when the SPL resumes after the Scottish Cup semi-final matches next weekend.But James McFadden's late equaliser for Motherwell against St Mirren stopped the title party at Parkhead.While Lennon said he wasn't too disappointed with having to wait to wrap up the championship, he admitted he would like to do it in front of his own supporters at Celtic Park.The win, Celtic's first over Hibs this season, increases their lead at the top of the table to 15 points over Motherwell with just five games remaining as they inch ever closer to their second successive league championship.It would be marvellous to do it at Celtic Park. We'll just wait and see what the fixtures bring on Monday but it would be nice to win it at home and it would be nice to have a full house and give the fans something to enjoy.The Celtic fans had thought they had a title to toast when Lewis Guy had put St Mirren 2-1 ahead in the 75th minute.
