Former Leicester, Hull and Crystal Palace manager Peter Taylor leaves his role as Maldon & Tiptree boss.

Christ, where does he go from there?!

I'm surprised he's still managing to be fair. He's 70 now! Maybe he'll take this as a chance to retire.

I know he's gone further and further down the pyramid, but it's actually remarkable how he's managed to have such a long managerial career. His strength was coaching, you think at some point he (and those that keep employing him) would realise he's out of his depth as a manager and he'd better going back to being a coach. Like Craig Shakespeare...

Decided to have a look on twitter this morning. A few selections:

Lots of lessons learned from Brendan then.

Humbly taken his failures at Leicester, reassessed his approach, told himself some hard truths and returned to Celtic a better man, teammate, leader and coach.

Or

His career aspirations are in tatters thanks to his own stubborn arrogance and he’s a bitter man and a busted flush because of it.

Had he of walked away before the start of last season when he found out there was no money to spend, he would almost certainly now be managing Spurs and continuing to earn millions of pounds a year.

Instead he's managing in Scotland and if it doesn't go well, he'll probably struggle to get another decent appointment.

KPFC don't recognise things that happened before they arrived

What about the video package they play before every match?

I was having a bad day and this made me smile.

Kilmarnock viewpoint

"Their identity was lost," added ex-Kilmarnock custodian Cammy Bell. "Celtic didn't change their style of play, despite it being clear to see it wasn't working. I felt Kilmarnock wanted it a little bit more and like Celtic ran out of ideas."

Brendan out of ideas? Never....

Nice.

He’s out and about in Charlotte a lot. I haven’t met him yet, and I sort of like it that way.

On of about…11…people in the world I’d be starstruck by.

Did some of the other 10 dress a bit like him once upon a time?

Is Rodgers jnr still likely benefit from this guy's next move? England's 4th best left back will be great up there.

It's telling that they couldn't find a pic of him playing for his most recent club
