    Again though, I see that as Rodgers/Congerton failing. Not the board.

    Idk mate but I feel boyata has hung our manager out to dry after all the support he has shown him pushing him onto greater things ,This in its self will be causing concern with the suits when they are being told he is not for sale ,rule is never keep an unhappy player it never works out well .it's undermining br and he has more professionalism than this ,there is only 1 way this should go ,and its not taking a sicky to * on the club plans .

    I'm not criticising Brendan because we were blessed to sign him and he's worked wonders for us but it's obvious that something is wrong.

    McGinn would've been perfect today, a midfield battler who knows the Scottish game and definitely knows how to play against those hacking * tactics. I have no idea why some folk were comparing him to McGregor, Callum is a creative attacking midfielder and McGinn is more defensive disruptive, a possible replacement to Broony.

    The main concern though is Brendan is attacking by nature and that's why we love him but we need to acknowledge that means he's not great at picking defenders so we need a new defensive coach who can spot a player because even if we just got one good CB and one decent RB then we'd be a much stronger force.

    The two goals that * us this week were horrible to see, twice an opposition player with all the space in the world. No one scores a volley like that unless they've loads of time because no one is pressuring them.

    It's very ominous hearing Brendan say he's not in control of signings, the financial part anyway. That means he's saying the board isn't backing him anymore because he's hardly asking them for more than he knows we have in our budget.

    He's a world class manager who could go to many teams with a limitless budget with top coaches and scouts all over the world who can attract top talent. We knew he was going to leave eventually but I hate this feeling that it might be because he's * off rather than because he's succeeded and taken us as far as he could and everyone was happy.

    I'm still happy and I'm quite confident we'll win the league as long as Brendan's here. Expecting the CL every year is a bit much, I mean who thought we'd get it his first few weeks? When AEK went down to 10 men I had a sinking feeling because we've seen it with so many other teams in other leagues, the opposition just goes full on Mourinho and as long as they're disciplined it's quite an easy spoiling tactic.

    I was disappointed we didn't stand up for ourselves today but once again Hearts should've had two players sent off, maybe even three because that flying headbutt on Hendry looked suspicious as *.

    Still though, it was our fault we got beat, we can't make mistakes like that when our defence is so poor.

    Depends.

    Rodgers could have asked the board to target "A,B,C"

    Board, sorry no can do.

    Ok, get me "D,E,F"

    Tried to get them, too much

    "H,I,J" then?

    Offered them contracts, no * interested, only "X,Y,Z" available

    Ok :54:

    Mate he was raving about Hendry from when we laued them last a september. Then was making out Compper was the CB we’d been waiting for.

    3 goals 3 runs from mid not picked up ,can partially blame defence for not stopping crosses coming in but some1 should be tracking runs .

    That's been a big weakness with us since Wanyama left. Even at corners, you see opposition players getting so much time and space at the edge of our box. There seems to be a massive gap between our midfielders and defence at times when teams counter attack us.

    You see the board playing hard ball with Hibs and costing Rodgers one of his main transfer targets a Rodgers/Congerton failing?
