    I've gone from loving him to hating him then to forgiving him and liking him. I have no issue with him moving on now as the board have been utter useless.

    I think so. I've never heard him state it so definitively. At the time he had said that it was a great opportunity to go down south again... I can't believe the board have shafted him yet again

    I'm late to the party here but surely he's talking about Lawwell and knows exactly where it's came from. The fact he never mentioned his name. Mentioned first stint round. It's obvious as *..

    So much for a more backseat Lawwell as chairman ay......basically got a senior guy working against him..

    Is the full presser up?

    The snake within the club who fed erroneous information about Rodgers to the Scottish Hun needs to be named and sacked.

    Just when you thought it couldn't get worse.
    Brendan all guns blazing and confirming nothing has changed in 8 years other than further decline.

    Within a well run club that kind of damning statement he'd be in Nuno Espirito territory and sacked - but the current idiots running the club know it's true and if they sacked him they would be committing corporate suicide.
    What a feckin disaster.

    "It was clear what we needed, and we needed it early. We had these qualification games. Summer 2025 was a critical window for us to get players in to be ready for these games, and we weren't ready.

    "That made me leave last time. This time I won't do that, one hundred per cent. I said 150 per cent a few weeks ago, so I'll go back to that! It didn't make me think of walking way, I just felt empty, if I'm honest."

    Absolutely nothing goes on at boardroom level without the say so of that * Lawwell. He micromanages everything.So if someone has went off their own back and done that they'd already be away by now.
    It's 100% came from Lawwell

    Rodgers knows that too

    Hannah from the Scottish Hun knows who fed the information from within our club. He should name the *.

    They won't like that He has pretty much embarrassed them in public and agreed that whoever briefed The Sun should be made to resign, He is well within his right to say how He feels about the situation.

    In any regular job if You felt that people above were trying to undermine and put obstacles in your way to prevent You from doing Your job properly and to make You look stupid then You would have every right to say how it is in front of your works HR dept and explain what those people were doing to You to prevent You from doing the job to the best of your ability.

    My take on his comments:

    Desmond - genuinely doesnt have a problem with him or see him as problem

    McKay & Nicholson - nice guys, work hard but not very good at their jobs and ultimately part of the problem

    Lawell - the primary problem, cant stand him

    Lawwell must be going ape * about being labelled a coward, indirectly to the media.

    Keep it up Brendan.

    This can’t be right. Lawwell is just the chairman of the board. Isn’t he? Just a token position with no influence.

    Anyone who thinks that fat *’ paws aren’t etched all over this disaster is completely delusional.
