    With the injuries we’ve had and the * shocking scouting last summer, a lesser manager sees us lose this league. On track for a very good points total in comparison with other years. Board need to properly back him now and let’s see what our success can look like. Guys from the Korean 2nd division ain’t going to cut it. Spend the money we know we have and let’s see where we can go.

    Sorry but having watched the game now, that wasn't on Rodgers. Quite the opposite. We won because we had far the better players; Rodgers got absolutely spanked in the tactical battle.

    His record against them is second to none. He was a 93rd minute wonder goal equaliser at Ibrox from green and white washing them this season.

    Has the football been good enough all season, no. We had a relatively slow start performance wise but we did add 9 players to the squad lost Hatate and CCV early season for a spell. We started to look decent and then Hatate was out again, Palma picked up a knock on international duty and there was Johnston injury too.

    It felt like we couldn’t get going at all for the first half of the season. We then smashed Hearts, got the draw with Atletico playing really well, but put so much into that we were struggling against a stuffy Hibs team.

    We had that weird second half at Killie and full Hearts game in December but beat everyone else. Had a very slow start after the winter break but baring that Hearts game where VAR had a big say we found a way to win the games.

    The leagues all but done and we have a cup final against them to really end the season on a high.

    There is the makings of a decent team there but we need significant reinforcements in the summer to let us kick on again next season. Some fresh players who can come straight into the starting 11 particularly at the back and something different in attack.

    Huh?

    We missed a good 5-6 extremely close chances that comes down to player ability to finish on the day, even missing a penalty.

    The setup was good from Rodgers, we dominated them until we missed the penalty, then we kind of shat it.

    He has absolutely schooled that badly hun *. No bad for being Derek McInnes’s * according to some of our fans. The cream always rises, and when the chips have been down, Rodgers has been outstanding. He has knew exactly what to say at the right time, and his words have reflected the team’s performance. Last 20 minutes today we panicked, but league titles didn’t come easy, and ultimately he has seen us over the line. And * wanted him sacked :56::56:

    We could've and should've won by a bigger margin, 2 offside goals, missed penalty and a number of very good chances, 67% possession, second half not as good as the first but nevertheless it's another victory over the huns and one that rubber stamps yet another League title.

    He deserves alot of credit, one of the most difficult things to do in football management is to turn around a toxic atmosphere within a club and at a stage this season things certainly felt like they were getting toxic with the poor results and performances, a growing injury list, the abada situation, the green brigade getting locked out fiasco etc and whatever else but he managed to remain calm and composed and eventually steered us through it until we got our better players back and then really kicked on to where we are now.
    The pressure is now on the board and scouts to supply him properly with quality players to really bring the club and team up to a whole new level.

    I was working during the game; but I watched the full match afterwards. I genuinely think it is true.
