    If he gets it I'll be sick..

    Was successful but I honestly think he's a well overrated wee scumbag..

    Recruitment was/is laughably *
    ....aye but Lawwell.....I take it Peter brought his wee pal in as head of recruitment aye..

    A lot of games were a * chore. Chronically slow side to side pish..

    Was up against muck at the time and couldn't get wins at grounds like Easter Road..

    Fell out with everybody for a lovely wee bullshitter..

    I despise him with a passion..

    Every single ball that can be contested they are right on it. They look streetwise to counters aswell, whether that's tactics or the quality of their players i'm no sure. Could be very handy in Europe...

    Got his name. Isi. He looks very good.

    The press under Ange was a total myth. Just individual players sprinting at the ball in nothing areas, often exposing the guys behind them.

    No trigger, no traps, no rhythm, no cohesion.

    Any decent side were able to get out of it with ease.

    I don't know how it sits with me. Success has to be the main priority and with Rodgers you put yourself in a good spot for that, but when you look at the other options out there it's incredibly uninspiring.

    Second bottom question mate..

    Aye I agree with that..

    No a complete myth but losy count the amount of times Kyogo would naturally go but on his own. It wasn't a trigger press as a unit. Or Maeda would go like a headless chicken and get it passed about him..

    Sometimes I felt like our midfield was the problem more than the 3 up top. O'Riley would often be furthest forward out of the 3 midfielders and was successful to a point, but he didn't have the legs to consistently press successfully and the amount of times sides broke on us right through the middle was noticeable..

    It's why I'm desperate for more athleticism in midfield. We have nowhere near enough for it and never did under Ange. Was always an O'Riley, Turnbull, Rogic or Mooy involved. We did well overall for what we had but against good sides, it was always exposed a bit..

    Midfield absolutely needs upgraded for me..

    I really want Iraola, not Brendan again. Give us something new and exciting.

    I'd just be lying to myself..

    I'm a Celtic supporter so I'd want us to win and do well....but I'd never take to that slippery wee dog. No way..

    A lying * and a snake *..

    Lying about greats and getting caught out
    Leaving us halfway through a season when Leicester had nothing to play for and were happy to wait, then coming back and going for anyone and everyone..

    No for me..

    If it is Rodgers he either just really needs to lean in to it and say he met a Celtic supporter who pleaded with him to return and that's what made him come back or literally just never give any interviews

    Cheers mate. Love how he talks about setting traps against quality sides and forcing them to dance to his tune like it's a * easy thing to do :giggle1:

    We have to get this guy in for an interview at the very least to see what he has to say...

    I asked Chat GPT to predict what he’d say and it’s actually hilarious :56:

    “Alright, here's a wee story. I was at Waitrose a few weeks back, just getting my shopping done when this elderly lady wearing a Celtic scarf comes up to me. 'Brendan, you're a saint, you know,' she said. ‘You’ve changed my life.’

    It's quite something to hear that when you're just picking up apples. Really humbling, you know?

    But then she hit me with the big one. 'Come back to us,' she says. And in her voice, I could hear the longing of the whole Celtic community.

    It really got me thinking. Here I was, just doing my shop, and her words reminded me of the bond I share with Celtic, with the fans.

    So, to that lady, thank you for that reminder. And for those wondering about her request... well, in football, you just never know. The future has a way of surprising you."

    Get Iraola and tell him to bring his Keeper Dimitrievski, Isi and that monster Ciss in his midfield.

    Watching more and more of their highlights and they’re * excellent to watch man.

    I don’t want to go on about it but honestly I canny believe the amount of people not just saying they’d accept him back but actually wanting it.

    I couldn’t give a * what he achieved, how he develops players or how bad his recruitment is. None of that even comes into it for me. He shat on the club, the players and the fans.

    Club needs to actually have some respect for itself.
