    Only that we get a bounce and a restart. But 12 months down the line it's the same story as has been for 20 years now.

    Completely agree.

    But he has the best squad in Scotland. We don't play like that.

    Are we just claiming anything is true now?

    The football and tactics are brutal just now, but I don’t think he had a big say in most of the players we brought in.

    No one get me wrong here, the football on offer from Rodgers is diabolical and utterly *. He needs to do better. He's not absolved of any blame here.

    He's not motivating the squad, he's picking bizarre line ups and subs.

    But he's not a * manager by any stretch.

    Sack him, what we getting next? Same old *.

    Aye, looking real fine right now. Don't suppose the guy who told everyone the Titanic was unsinkable is in your family tree, by any chance?

    Ange just wouldn't allow two bad games in a row. The post-title-win slump last season aside, he always got a reaction from his players.

    With Brendan this season it's like watching him attempt to start a rusty dying old car, it's going no where fast

    No. The board don't make him play like that. Ange had the same board and * tore the place up. We need a new board aye, but we need a manager fast before we end up 5th

    Rodgers cannot get a tune out of this current squad. Forget about the summer signings the current manager is failing. I would get rid of him now. We cannot let this fester on. Kyogo is a shadow of the player he was. Why is that??

    We saying we don't see the same story every new manager practically?
    Comes in, gets a bounce, we back them a little, wins a league playing "the Celtic way", squad isn't strong enough to do that in Europe, manager gets frustrated at lack of backing for Europe, leaves.

    Same all the time.

    It’s not because he’s going absolutely nowhere any time soon.

    Managers are like players - they have an ascent in their career, a peak and a decline.

    He's so outdated now. That's why his Leicester team were getting beaten by everyone.

    He's on the decline as a manager. He won't get back into the EPL unless it's a smaller club that's looking for a big name living off of past achievements.

    He's going to be sacked between now and the end of the season as we're not winning the league with him here.

    We will get a better manager than him. Younger, with new ideas. We were linked with managers who have gone onto great successes in their new clubs. It could've been us but we went for someone who has already managed us, so should be able to do the job, and whose tactics and style are now prehistoric.

    As other posts I've mentioned man, he's to blame for this nonsense we see on the pitch currently. But the problem is larger than Rodgers.

    He is fine domestically. He's * it mind you and that's not right at all.

    Everyone is worse now except for O'Riley and maybe Scales.

    Confidence has been totally drained from the squad. It's a * squad no doubt about it but not this bad.

    That's on Rodgers.

    His tactics are just not making any sense. That's my number one reason for wanting him sacked.

    I've seen no bounce here or backing.

    You're right though.

    However, I'd take that cycle all day over losing a league title.

    A lot of people hoping the board flash the cash(understandable)but the squad we have should never get beat 2 0 by the diets.
    We have enough talent to be beating the smaller teams in the league and yet we struggle,its simple really they dont want to play for Rodgers,if he stays we will continue to struggle so we may as well get used to these type of performance,s forget about the transfare window saving us.

    I would get rid of him ASAP and get Kieran McKenna in now. Kieran would not turn us down
