    Hes definitely confirmed he thinks the board are * anyway

    You could almost interpret his comments as being pointed for Desmonds reading. Hes kind of saying he wants to stay but the board need to go first. And that if the board were to go then hes open to staying on.

    Good on him, needed someone to call the * out even if its only a select few. Also fairly damning on those he does get on with that it’s not good enough.

    So it’s him or Lawwell? He goes if Lawwell stays or he stays if Lawwell goes? Leaving the decision in Desmond’s hands.

    Was coming in to post similar.

    Quite evident he's pulling several strings still.

    I have always despised Lawell. I hope BR sticks it out

    The fans have to get behind him now
    For someone who has done so much for the club we don’t give him enough backing

    time to bust out the Brendan Rodgers song big time on Sunday with a few * the boards mixed in

    The fact he's basically saying in public that a board member needs to resign is mental. Absolutely wild.

    In any other circumstances the manager probably gets sacked for saying similar.

    Is it lawwell or is it McKay. He didn't name check him either?

    Lawwell has previous. Only a few weeks ago that rat of a man Keevins was saying Lawwell phoned him and told him he had nothing to do with transfers

    Aye very impressed with that from Rodgers.

    What I took from that is he believes Nicholson and Mckay are good guys but maybe not the best at their job, its the way I've always seen it, I think they're both incompetent.

    Lawwell missing from that statement is no surprise to anyone.

    Clever with his comments basically saying what we all thought these guys are massively out of their depth and Lawwell is a bell end. He may like Nicholson and McKay personally but that has zero to do with running the club and I would argue working on Christmas day is a sign you are unprepared and * at your job
