Brendan Rodgers is our manager

[lifetime fan]

Ah well, I guess we just disagree then. I think he adequately demonstrated his ability when he came closer than any other manager in fucking years to getting the title. I think he's demonstrating his ability now, too.

 

Ah well, he's gone. Time to get over it.

 

Suarez.

Scotland.

 

Appointed well above his ability.

[Numero Veinticinco]

I disagree with your flippant dismissals. It's nothing new for us to disagree, so I'll just move on.

I have no issue with being right or wrong.

 

I’m just happy Rodgers is gone.

[RobbieOR]

When all is said and done he did a decent job and left at the right time when we got a better guy in. No shame in the fact he didn't have it in him to sustain 2013/14. 

[Grinch]

Nothing decent about his failed time here or the shit squad he left behind.

[lifetime fan]

The football we played for a season was more than decent, it was fucking boss.

 

His first and last season was shocking though.

Reading the Celtic forum I browse and lately it's reading very much like our last season with him here. Passing it from side to side in defense and midfield. Loads of possession and no end product.

Which, in Scotland these days, adds up to a 9-point lead at the top.

 

He may as well be Jock Stein.

Yay, another Rodgers thread, but this time with some faux-gangster tough guy talk from some milquetoast. I guess that is a good enough reason to open up this discussion on another front.

Milquetoast. Yep.

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers believes Liverpool would have sacked him even if he had won the Premier League title in 2013/14.

 

The Northern Irishman led the Reds to their closest title challenge in the Premier League era when two poor results in May 2014 handed Man City the title.

 

Seemingly heading for their first Premier League title, Liverpool lost 2-0 at home to Chelsea – a match that included Steven Gerrard’s infamous slip – before throwing away a lead to draw 3-3 against Crystal Palace.

 

City became champions by two points and Rodgers was eventually sacked in October 2015 after a poor start to that campaign.

 

And Rodgers reckons he would have still been shown the door if he had managed to pip Man City to the league.

 

Rodgers told The Times : “I would still have been sacked for sure.

 

“You only need to look at the evidence all around. Not in modern football. Not in new football.

 

“This little thing here (mobile phone) means the world has changed. No one wants to wait for anything.

 

“At the end of that season I signed a four-year deal. I was going to be the one, the person to take the club on. Eighteen months later that’s it.”

He's still talking outstanding shite then.

 

Souness won a shit load of trophies at Rangers from memory.  

And at least he won one at Liverpool in his 3 years.

 

Enjoy your treble, mate, no need to slag off former employers today.

If he was as good a manager as he thinks he is he’d put Busby, Shankly, Paisley and Ferguson to shame.

[lifetime fan]

And that fucking haircut is fooling no one you daft twat.

 

You’ve a bigger Mr Motivator than the man himself you prick.

[Grinch]

He replaced a better more successful Liverpool manager so I'm not sure what he's whining about.

 

Nothing he does in Scotland will tell us anything.

[s(k)aturation]

One thing it will tell us is that - even if he manages in Scotland for another 1,000 years - he still won't be fit to tie a Jock Stein shoelace.

"Oh Brendan, Brendan. Still whining Brendan. Have you heard enough? I've had to listen to that for centuries."

Ha gave us a good season in the league but couldn’t win it. Let’s hope Klopp can win it, otherwise he’ll be regarded as no more successful than Rodgers.
