Brendan Rodgers - New Celtic Manager

[Frankenhooker]

He would of been better off taking a job in the Championship, an actual bit of competition. He's on a hiding to nothing in that league.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

He mentioned himself that he had top offers on the table since being sacked from us, I don't believe any of that bull shit for one second, why the fuck would you choose Celtic if you had top offers being made? He probably turned down Villa.

A great appointment for the Mega Hoops.

He's hardly going to say "I've been offered some shitty jobs I wouldn't touch with yours, mate".

You mean Scott Brown, who always looks like somebody who terrorises the kids on council estates and knows where to score cheap smack.

He'd probably glass me for getting his name wrong.

[Trumo]

Some people used to call him Buck. Will they now call him Buckfast?

[Frankenhooker]

The Villa job is a better one than the Celtic one, at least you can prove yourself there. Scottish football is a wasteland, he has to win everything or he's a failure.

 

Getting Villa promoted is a bigger achievement than winning Celtic the league in a one team division.

Maybe's he shouldn't have said anything then, not like he's not renowned for talking crap. 

[Jairzinho]

It's like La Liga on skag.

[RoboRiise]

I always said Rodgers would be in the champions league and he would win a title this season or next.

 

Hahaha fucking brilliant.

 

Forget the points, look at the goal difference for a real impression of the difficulty:

 

 

There's a bloke who sits outside Victoria Station in Manchester every day holding half a Starbuck's cup and begging for loose change.  I'm pretty sure he could secure them a top two finish next season at worst.

 

I actually came here immediately on seeing the news just for Stig's reaction, anticipating teacups flying around but after reading it I realised I'd forgotten to take account of the fact that I've drank in pubs whose teams would probably have a decent shout at top half of the table.  So yeah, he probably will do just fine there.

One begs to differ.  He's already had Swansea promoted so has that on his CV.  There's no value in him going back to the Championship whereas at Celtic he has a great chance of adding trophies to his name.

Who's going to stop him talking, you?

What a stupid reply, can't say I'm shocked though.

Trophies that mean fuck all outside of Glasgow.

Okay.  For the record I think you're stupid, too.  

[Pureblood]

Granted, but it's still better than being Aston Villa's manager.  Anything is.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

No problems, just hope you never ever discuss a manager or player talking crap again, I wouldn't want your hypocritical meter going off the scale. 

[Frankenhooker]

I suppose you have a point there.

He probably did manage a top flight Scottish team at some point in his life.

True that.  I believe that upon being arrested Gary Glitter said 'Hey at least I never managed Aston Villa'.

Maybe's now, but the offer (if it was made from Villa as it is only speculation) would have been around the time they sacked Sherwood. Plenty of time for a decent manager to turn things around. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Nope, you'd only do a flounce from the forums again.

Yeah, but it's Aston Villa.  There's a reason they had Tim Sherwood there in the first place.

Don't flatter yourself.
