Brendan Rodgers: New Celtic Manager

Not open for further replies.
I got lucky . All those quotes were found in one magically thread. I haven't done a counter one but I'm sure you could find plenty of hateful blurbs in any Rodgers thread circa 2014/2015.

Well, I can totally understand the fawning enthusiasm if they were written in the Nearly Season Of Glorious Failure.

I'd say 90% of fans were loving Rodgers then. I was. Although, crucially, I never actually thought we'd win the league, because of our defence.
 
I didn't either for a looooooong time, but I began to waver as the season was drawing to a close, and when we beat Citeh at Anfield I thought (and still think) that at that point the title was ours to lose. Unfortunately that's what we went and did.
 
Even when we beat citeh I didn't think we would win it. I knew Mourinho would fuck Rodgers over. As obvious as a penal wart.
I also didn't like Rodgers at any point. Slimey gobshite.
I wish i was right about good stuff once in a while instead of shit stuff.

Oh so the quote: "I fucking love the guy - Silver Sean" in this thread wasn't actually you?
 
Amazing that people get all uppity about me defending Rodgers, but should anyone dare address the occasional questionable decision by Klopp and its complete blasphemy. Whatever.
Because Klopp's had greater criticism on here than any Liverpool manager in their first season apart from Hodgson.

Rodgers received more patience than Klopp has and Klopp's first season is the more impressive.

Er, what? Klopp's been almost hero-worshipped by large sections of the fanbase.
 
A couple of people seem eager to put the boot in, but it's been pretty much universal praise
 
I said on here... I just don't remember Rafa or Rodgers for that matter being questioned as much as Klopp has been. Admittedly there hasn't been a huge amount but it's more than previously.

For instance nobody criticised Rafa for fielding a weaken team in the league for the chase for number 5 but quite a few did so when Klopp did the same to win the EL.
 
Wait! What? erm... shit...was that me? Surely not. Fuck me, the internet eh?

Yeah, the internet is the place to be when you say something, and then later claim you think the exact opposite and always have.

I bet there's quite a few on that quote picture who said something very different a season later.

Yes, because there's no difference between winning the European Cup and the Europa Cup.

Plus it's easier to be benevolent when you actually win it.
 
If we have a bad start to the new season, sack Klopp threads will begin to surface.

I'm saying this based on past statistics.

I don't think there will be many. He's won league titles. He would surely be given at least a whole season before anyone would be seriously calling for his sacking?

Surely?

Like Donald Trump, I shall just maintain I never said it. Anyone could have doctored that. It could have been a woman in the middle of menstruation. Or a Mexican.

Some of his biggest haters are in that quote pic, which I'm sure aided ILD's selection.
 
This IS sixcrazyminutes....

...however I suspect only somebody clearly as deranged as Arn, and/or the newly contrary-mary Dreamy would step into that space so early

Also, where's the context? I feel horribly misrepresented. I may have written 'If he wasn't such a shitmunching, cockgoblin with too-white teeth and penchant for Scouse skirt then I might say I fucking love the guy. But I don't."

Where's my lawyer?

Oh I'm sure there was, but I'd be totally fine with that, people are allowed to change their opinions.
I'm decent enough at remembering timelines on here. I'm sure we've had a few poster who thought Rodgers was great and their hypothetical transfers actually mirrored some of Rodgers' targets. Then it all went sour and the same posters lashed out at some of the signings Rodgers made even though they also suggested those targets.

That thread was littered with funny OTT praise for Rodgers. We were all under his spell at the time Sean. 😉

Full quote coming at ya:

Silver Sean sez:

I was bereft when we got him in as manager. Partly because he was someone I knew very little about who had not won anything. Partly because I was gutted Kenny was sacked. I thought our club should have gone for a Van Gaal, Hiddinck, someone like that. I would have even preferred Laudrup. I posted on here often about how I thought it was a backwards step, how we were accepting mid-table obscurity, how the owners had dropped a bollock. I genuinely thought we were fucked.
Whatever happens for the rest of the season I would like to point right now how much of a dunderheaded nobhead I was, and how BR is a fucking ace bloke, a brilliant manager and gets us more than I ever thought possible.
I fucking love the guy. The way he deals with the media, the man-management, the deadly steel-hand-in-velvet-glove assassin attitude, the understanding of the club, its fans, our history, what makes us tick.
I should have known when he insisted on bringing back our red nets.
I've always wanted our red nets back.
