    Honestly couldn't give a * what motivates them. As long as they perform.

    Honestly, the way this is going tonight.... he needs to grow a pair, either give this board both barrels in the press conference or chuck it...... then give the board both barrels. This team we are playing aren't that good.

    I'd be delighted if this is his last season.

    We know where the main problems lie but he isn't blameless, far from it.

    I pray the football under him isn't about to go stale this season.

    Aye.

    He’s not been given the tools he should be given. But his style of football has become stale as * again and he’s still sticking with his favourites too often.

    Its been stale a long time I think if we are honest.

    We have seen these performances as often as not since December last year.

    He is partly to blame, clearly. But it still gets laid at the board's door.

    The wind has gone out of the players' sails because they're in a declining club. Best players sold, no ambitious signings, manager doesn't want his contract renewed. Imagine trying to bullshit that side and motivate them. 'Go on, lads, I believe you can qualify and get humiliated over eight games, you can do it'.

    I'm * raging man.

    The board will get a lot of stick, and very rightfully so, but we should still be beating this side comfortably with our current squad.

    This football he has us playing is beyond horrendous, it was the exact same against St Mirren and it'll be the exact same against Livingston and next week.

    He needs to take a lot of Blame for tonight, we should coming out a game like this annoyed we didn't score more, not needing a win away in Kazakstan.

    Rodgers was specific in using the word Notorious the other day about last minute transfer dealings.

    "Notorious" means well-known, typically for something bad or negative; it implies a widespread reputation for something undesirable.

    Horseshoe in full force tonight. No imagination, no risk, slow paced. Eye-watering.

    It’s on him for the first 45mins for starting Idah.

    We play the same way and try the same things each game. No wonder it's so easy for European sides to work us out. If we're on form and up for it then it can work well, when we're not or have key players missing, like tonight, then it's brutal.

    He doesn't escape blame tonight. We looked so short of any ideas it's crazy

    We've played more bad football under him than good. Easily.

    The signings under him are * disastrous too. The bizarre substitutions, slow football, lack of rotation, etc.

    There's very little to like about Brendan Rodgers football teams a lot of the time, unfortunately.

    Forget Rodgers. He isn’t the problem. The dirty rat * that run us are. We’ve no quality in the final third. None whatsoever. We all saw this coming. Don’t let Rodgers blinker your view. Tonight is on the board.

    Can only * with the * he's got.

    We are starting James Forrest in 2025

    Think he's had enough, on and off the park.

    You could see him pulling up Idah in the first half. Whatever he said, Brendan lost patience with him. With a lack of wingers, it will probably have to be the untested Yamada up front.

    Still no excuse for one shot on target at home.

    Thanks for the memories Brendan.

    Last season 100%

    Wouldn't blame him for walking out after next week if we get pamped out.

    Clubs no ambition and not backing him

    There’s no freshness to the team due to the lack of signings. Having to move Maeda up top then back out wide due to the lack of wide options just highlights how grim it is.
