They lost that title ages ago.

Only thing holding rodgers back is the board. Its embarrassing how little faith they put in the man

Never were nor would be if we had another 100 trophies, I hate them but that belongs to Real Madrid, no club has their Success it’s not just about numbers that is why that was always a riddy of a statement and they actually advertised on the walls of the Ibrox tunnel

I'm not a huge Brendan fan, if course he's been successful and for that I thank him but as Ange showed with our finances and set up we should be winning things?

I also don't much care for the way he plays but all that said whilst he's in post he will have my backing and congratulations if/when we win

I’m not a big fan, just think he is professionally and tactically a cut above anything he comes up against in Scotland, don’t get me wrong with only 3 games left this season and he got a call from any EPL club tonight he would be there by 9am tomorrow but whilst he is here he will not lose a league

Aye fck Brendan, he's a complete mincer.

He's lost and won the league in the same season so congrats to him for that

Once he got the players sorted out his team has looked way hetter than the early days

We do rely heavily on one or two being fit

Definitely need to strengthen in the summer

I think you’ll find Celtic won’t have won the league but rather Rangers have lost it.

Ange is a far better manager than Brendan in my opinion.

The further away you get from Ange's team and the more Brendan puts his style in place, I honestly dont see things getting better for you...whether he will do enough to ensure the league is won every time is another question

But I think it's fair to say you'll struggle to play better football than you did under Ange, no matter who's in charge

When Ange came in did think "who the fck is he"?

After that I really enjoyed the football we got to see and kudos to whoever found him there will be other similar type managers out there but fairly thin on the ground? How we progress under Brendan will depend on how much the board back him and who we keep or lose come the summer

This would certainly explain why Rodgers was such a failure for us first time around.

Couldn’t get much better tbh Stevie, his record North of the border is quite stunning and if he can get a few in that play his way he will continue to win and his Old Firm record is better than any manager in the combined 200 odd year history of both clubs

Ange is my all time favourite celtic manager.

Gung ho football with loads of trophies. Shame in europe he was poor but think he cluld have done something if he stayed.

Rodgers is just a very clever man. No matter what he always gets the big calls right.

Although the invincibles season will always be my favourite. That rogic winner was just the icing on the cake.

Loved ange - brilliant to watch and miss it big time. Rogers is much more pragmatic but no less successful.

A wee point re the cup final - if Celtic were to win it - not only would it tie the two clubs on trophies but also give both teams 169 wins each in the head to head - pretty mad over a hundred and thirty six year period to have nothing between them !

I like his mentality and his attitude, he might not take his gloves off to shake hands but I remember reading a story where he immediately demanded a better office befitting a Celtic Manager when he first arrived, let the players and staff know his position in the club, his successor who got the job in the shower asked for the old office back, standards if your the boss act it. Like him or loath him or don’t rate him whatever you can’t deny his Scottish record in management he certainly would not have argued with fans standing in shrubbery

He is a lot more pragmatic, but when he had his style of players Dembele etc.. we were good in a lot of games

posted on 12/5/24

I’m grudgingly giving him a 👍 for winning the league but the football at times this year has been dire. He deserves credit for turning things around but his David Brent patter is quite sickly

Foddy, I did not know that? That's a WEIRD stat btw

Tommy Bruns teams were brilliant to watch we won fook all, Martin O’Neill loved a team of giants, mjallby, bono, valgearan, Sutton, Hartson effective but not always a great watch Strachan was pragmatic but had success, Lennon good and bad, Deila good record with not a lot of competition, Rodgers by far more successful but again pragmatic, Ange best football to watch out of all of them with success, it’s back to Rodgers it will be more pragmatic but it will bring success

Not to mention to be fair to the managers who didn’t have the luxury but I could have won leagues in charge by just putting Larsson on a team sheet

Brilliant picture tonight at the PoTY awards with Henke shaking Kyogo’s hand.
Imagine Lubo posting passes through to Kyogo. 30+ a season.

This season, I can't remember a run of matches where I thought we were dominating teams. Yeah, we were good for a half here and there, and we had some great individual performances, but we've been turgid at times.

Brendan barely gets a pass mark this season, and that's only because we've eventually dragged our erses over the finish line.

We've had some big players out injured for spells and that hasn't helped. But some of our football this season has been rotten, and that's down to Brendan. I don't believe our signings were BR's asks, but rather our misguided Board.

If we're going to improve, we have to ship out all the schite and let BR pick his own buys. A good CB and LB please and a taxi for Lawell and the nepotists.
