    Zero chance he goes before his 3 year contract is up. If there were issues behind the scenes then maybe, but he's getting everything he needs and is seeing progression in every aspect, he'll honour his contract at the very least.

    If reports of west ham sniffing about are true (big if) we'll find out. I hope I'm wrong mate, I'd love him to stay.

    People need to get over him leaving us the last time.

    Jesus. Thought we'd managed to get past that but the jealous ex syndrome is still alive.

    He's literally said he guarantees he will be here for the full 3 years of his contract.

    Wouldn't really worry lads think yous need to calm down


    One story on a bookie website another on a phone in show

    But former Hoops Hero and Record Sport columnist Chris Sutton insists Rodgers wouldn't take the step down to West Ham on the 606 football phone-in.


    Caller: “Another possible name that I think would have done a good job was Brendan Rodgers


    Sutton: “He’s at a huge club north of the border.”

    Caller: “I think if the money was right he might have gone to West Ham.”

    Sutton: “Oh come on. He wouldn’t want to downgrade to West Ham from Celtic






    And the Brendan to spurs story comes from this


    The sportscasting.com/uk traders are making him 8/11 to be gone by Christmas and even shorter (2/5) to not last the season.

    The oddsmakers are also pricing up Rodgers as the favourite to take over at 5/1 - a man that’s been rumoured for the Spurs top job many times before - with former England man Gareth Southgate not ruled out either at just 7/1. Spokesman Andy Newton said: “The new Premier League season is only a handful of games in but already there is mounting pressure on Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou after a very average start.

    His two 5th place finishes and a cup from the two seasons prior would have left him with enough credit in the bank for another club down there. He could of easily explained in an interview that the clubs poor recruitment was the reason for Leicesters slump i guess.

    Either way, i think he needed a break from the constant pressure down there.

    That's the point LectersLuncheon is making mate, they can be full of *. Guarantees are meaningless mate. Big team comes in for him I think he's off. Hope I'm wrong but.

    Redeemed himself I'd say. Shocker of a starting lineup.

    A lot of players let him down tonight but he made perfect subs, at perfect time. It was a brave decision to make so many changes and I like it.

    End of the day he had to start they fringe players and see what they’re made of… if he can’t trust them against Falkirk then what chance have ye got in the champions league. Sure he woulda learned a lot from it
