You could have said he’ll lead them to a League Cup Final win, something that’s happened in their history. You could have said he’ll lead them to an unexpected league title, because that’s happened in their history. Instead you chose to be a dickhead.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,661 Posted February 28, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted February 28, 2019 I don't understand why people have a problem with Celtic fans reactions. Of course you'd be fuming. What urgency do Leicester have to get him in now? Sure they could have come to some agreement where Rodgers saw the season through with Celtic. This is coming from someone who thinks it's the right move for him and Leicester by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted March 1, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted March 1, 2019 I can totally understand it although we just naturally find it a bit funny seeing us getting a slating in the process. Didn't bother them taking O'Neill from us. I have said elsewhere I am surprised it happened now. I was happy to see us go with an interim until May and then have our new man lined up for then. I'm also not naive enough to think that he wouldn't leave us for a better offer, just like nearly anybody in football does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Liquidator 259 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Normally this movement wouldnt mean a Rats ass to me, but having had a belly full of Mr. Rodgers since his time at my own club I cant help feel one word raised by Celtic Supporters at their last game summed him up perfectly. He is a fraud. Whatever he says should be taken with a huge pinch of Salt and Leicester Fans should hope for a short count of days till another Mug club fall for his bullshit.

Many don't agree with on this but I don't expect loyalty from football players or managers. Its a brutal business. Although I don't like him understand why RVP tried to force a move away from us same with Sanchez. Footballers only get a short playing career if I was a footballer I would do the same. Its admirable when players do what Ramsey has done but I don't expect that. Same with managers. Clubs will sack you after you loose a few games these days so if an opportunity comes up and you have to take it then or loose it I can understand a manager taking it there and then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with people being cynical, but the real problem is pretending to be otherwise. You can either have a detached professional relationship with the club, or you can have a real affinity with the fans.

His move speaks volumes to me. I'm not naive enough to think it couldn't happen again. The point for me is taking whatever measures we have to to progress to a point where we have a growing list of clubs we become superior to. Northern Irish catholic likes Celtic but realises we have a higher ceiling. I'll take that. His actions speak louder than words. At least he's not making up a load of shite to appease us. I couldn't really care less about what he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchalkeUK 402 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Looking after a side which is head and shoulders above the rest of the local opposition and which fails dismally in Europe sums up the quality of your new guy! And with Watford now leading it shows that the problem is far too deep for this so-called professional to deal with - one should ask why he emigrated to Scotland in the first place. I hope that my present sadness with my lot is not reflected in the way the Foxes suffer from this silly decision! Sorry Stan - I really do feel for you!

Guest Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 @Dan @Stan what did you think about Chris Sutton's comments about Celtic researches being bigger than Leicester?

Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted March 3, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted March 3, 2019 His comments are laughable but he knows it himself. He's just trying to keep himself relevant. It'll probably work for a couple of days though, that's the way British journalism & media is. Cringeworthy but what can you do. Celtic fans are slagging us off left right and centre at the minute. Without wanting to sound a cunt, it's mainly borne out of their realisation that Scottish football really has declined, that their Celtic supporting, trophy collecting manager is happy to leave them in February for a currently midtable Premier League side.
