At least charity will get the benefit of their riches. Palestine freed, Heart Disease Cured. Poverty wont be eradicated cause they need poor people for fans.

Paedos protected, that isn't charity work of course, more a symptom of how their minds work.

They've had a superb season and we've had a cunt of a season.

They've played without any pressure from the word go this year, albeit in style in some places.

If this Rangers team had been able to stay within touching distance of these clowns - I'm talking 7-10 points - they wouldn't be as 'free-flowing' as the media would have you believe they are right now.

No superb season has ever had, or ever will, have a 7-0 gubbing  in it.

Tbf, the rest of my post should be clear enough that I meant domestically.

Someone should suggest a DVD because I'm sure there would be a huge sales success in the G51 area

Wee insignificant tarrier bellend from Coatbridge who has done fuck all since scoring 1 goal in europe.

You can spot the tarriers in Scottish football a mile away. When he came on at Ibrox he attempted to chase down the ball, tried to kick a few players and took wild shots from 30 yards hoping he could score. It's fucking hilarious, add into the fact he looks as though he's put on about 4 stone made it funnier.

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers is a hard act to follow as Jurgen Klopp is finding out at Liverpool

Their records after 54 matches as Anfield boss are EXACTLY the same and what the Northern Irishman is now doing with the Hoops deserves more respect down south

 

When their identical Liverpool records over 54 Premier League games were highlighted, the comparison with Brendan Rodgers was not widely intended to be a flattering one.

More a case of… 'Blimey, Jurgen Klopp’s no better than the phoney who went before him!'

The statistical quirk was a stick used to give Jurgen a gentle beating.

But maybe it should be a gentle compliment — losing 12 and winning 26 of 54 is not too shabby — and maybe, just maybe, Rodgers is a pretty good manager.

Maybe it is about time the very decent job he did at Anfield was recognised and his fantastic impact at Celtic is acknowledged in the south.

 

His record run with the Scottish champions this season will be routinely denigrated in England. Rodgers would have known about that attitude before he took the job.

He could have hung around when the opportunity in Glasgow arose. Even though he had been out of work for over six months, his stock was still relatively high and another Premier League job might have been in the offing soon.

The challenge north of the border seemed fairly no-win. Succeed, like he is doing in spectacular fashion, and it’s a Mickey Mouse league; fail and you must be a real no-hoper.

So the only way you can make any sort of mark is by making history which, with a 29-game unbeaten domestic run, he has done.

Not only that but he has Celtic, who have now won 19 league games on the spin, playing some enthralling football.

Yes, it was only against St Johnstone - and a knackered-looking St Johnstone, it has to be said - but the move to complete Moussa Dembele’s hat-trick last Sunday featured 24 passes, the final two of which were a rabona and a back-heel.

It is worth checking out.

That the standard of Scottish football is not great is probably more indisputable than it has ever been — a team that finished bottom of its Champions League group is 27 points clear at the top domestically after 24 matches.

His team’s results in Europe - they did not win a group game - are more likely to be used as a measure of Rodgers’ managerial prowess, but the performances with a side he was still getting to know were encouraging.

The two draws with Manchester City were thoroughly deserved.

It is impossible to rank them in an English pecking order, but this is a Celtic team that would probably acquit itself respectably in the Premier League.

It will never get that chance, but Rodgers almost certainly will, if that’s his ambition. He deserves it for what he did at Liverpool and what he is doing at Celtic.

Rodgers’ problem is that he has, for one reason or another, always been too easy to ridicule.

The match-up with Klopp on a strictly non-statistical level is telling.

When Rodgers got tactile with players, it was cringeworthy. When Klopp hugs them, it’s great.

When Rodgers talked about character, it was bluster. When Klopp talks about character, it’s insightful.

When Rodgers laughed, it was false. When Klopp laughs, everyone laughs with him.

No matter what you compare, it must be remembered it did unravel under Rodgers at Liverpool and that Klopp is a great coach who has already achieved great things.

Yet Rodgers will not get the credit he deserves for what he is doing at Celtic, just as he did not get it for a lot of his work at Anfield.

History and statistics, though, might show Rodgers a harder act to follow than most believed.

I've just seen it on twitter actually. It's from the mirror so done by an English journalist but that's the records sister paper so they're trying to claim it as their own. Cos it looks like a pro tarrier story.

He genuinely only did well that season cos of Suarez.

They maybe should compare to his following season eh......Lpool fans in general think hes a joke.

Klopp has had to come in a nd rebuild the mess made from his time and on a lesser budget.

Also love this record run thing they keep mentioning......club record only fs...................

Wow! Is whoever wrote that, penning it from an unbiased point of view? Or did he lift most of it from the Celtic view? He forgot to mention the hammering they took against Barcelona. Or the result against Lincoln Red Imps, of Gibraltar. Yes they're sweeping all before them in Scotland, ffs we're not very good, and we're third in the league. Even in their CL group matches they were lucky that Man City, who had already qualified for the last 16, fielded a second string team, and they still couldn't win. Does the games in the CL not count to the author? Yeah they're doing well in the Premiership, but shite everywhere else!

The Scottish Premiership is at top English League ,1 bottom Championship level, so any English footy follower will laugh at the Tim love in with this paper. Liverpool look a far better team that is getting better under Klop. Liverpool under Brenda were a 1 man show, the Suarez show, when he left, it fell apart. With Septic he has brought in 2 good players and that is the real difference. I think we are 5 quality players away not a million miles as the papers would have you believe.

Liverpool under Klopp have the exact same win lose draw ratio as under Brendan.

Liverpool have not really progressed at all under Klopp tbh. He's another cringe side show freak

I think he will come good, the team is playing better instead of it being just pass the ball to Suarez, that is the point I was trying to make. 54 games is where they decided to have the cut off point, Brenda inherited Suarez, Klop is trying to build and has not had a Suarez standard type of player. No biggy for me anyway as I have no English team, just Rangers for me.
