New ex-players (and managers) thread

What has gone wrong for Celtic under Rodgers?

Brendan Rodgers admits Celtic's performances are not good enough, but what has gone wrong in the manager's second spell?

I'd say you can pinpoint the problems to when they decided to bring back Brendan Rodgers.....

Also, heard a Spurs fan perplexed at the recent performances from Maddison yesterday.

"Why is he not the same player as he was earlier in the season?" he whined.

Hehehe. They'll learn.

Is that their sixth manager of the season?

Celtic fans unhappy, it's exactly the same as last season, and one of them gets it.

'No patience with Rodgers and his weak excuses'

We asked for your views on a cracking weekend of action in the Premiership - this is what you made of it.

He'll struggle to get another job after handing the title to Rangers.

He'll struggle to get another job after handing the title to Rangers.

That would be a shame.

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

He'll struggle to get another job after handing the title to Rangers.

Nonsense. He's achieved two top 6 PL finishes, an FA Cup, a relegation from the Prem, and still a potential SPL league win in the his last 5 seasons. We may think he's a ****, but there's no doubting that he has his attractive qualities as a manager. He'll easily snap up something with a newly promoted side or a team like Brentford/Leeds if they come back up,

Nonsense again. He could well still win that league with the last match being vs Rangers, so if they're in sight mathematically come end of season, that last match could be the decider.

How can you know the fixtures when they’ve not even been arranged yet?

How can you know the fixtures when they’ve not even been arranged yet?

It’s also highly doubtful they’d make that the last fixture, too.

Yep, very improbable

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

Oh really, i thought I saw that fixture arranged for April 7th. To be honest, I'm not entirely sure how the format of that league works. I just assumed it was 33 matches to play in a simple, that-makes-sense format. But if it's another way, then I'd be intrigued to see how.

My sentiment was that they've still got plenty to play for.

Celtic play St Mirren on the 13th, and then the top half and the bottom half will split into two separate mini-leagues. Top six play each other once, same with the bottom six. Total 38 match days.

What a shitfest.

 

[homer]

What a shitfest.

Perfectly reasonable format for a league full of complete dog filth

Perfectly reasonable format for a league full of complete dog filth

Same In Greece

Same In Greece

And in Belgium, and Denmark, and probably some other countries

I hope he gets sacked just so we have no reason to ever discuss Scottish football again.
