He comes across well in that, he's much more down to earth than I thought he would be, I always had the impression he was a bit of a David Brent type.

How come he's talking about schools, I thought his kids were grown up?
Hes got a young kid to his new burd I think

I know it's a completely different kettle of fish at Celtic, but I was looking at Rogers signing record during his time at Liverpool. 33 players signed, for a total of £292,050,000 :rubeyes:

There really is a load of shampoo on that list. In some ways - maybe it's a good thing he won't have anywhere near that much money to waste at Celtic. His biggest challenge will be getting the most out of the players we currently have (contrary to some - I actually think we have the basis of a decent side. Just needs to offload some of the shampoo, and supplement the squad with a few important signings).

Liverpool had a transfer committee to decide on signings.
Aye, the same committee which he said he had full veto over before he started signing shampooe players and totally misusing the good ones, and blamed them later...

The Liverpool transfer committee gets a hell of a lot of stick for signing lots of good to excellent players. Brendan struggled to adapt to them and make them see it his way.

Glad he has full say here as he has no excuses now.

Is it any coincidence that the sun hasn't stopped shining since Hibs won the cup and Rodgers got appointed?

If he thought that big clown who was at Hibs was a keeper after having both seen him at Chelsea and presumably playing in Edinburgh, I'm having reservations :lol:

Yes. It's as good an example of coincidence as you are likely to see.

Yep, that's the best reason to be glad he has a greater remit.

It's always a good thing to have no excuses - means he can be fully committed to the players he brings in, no preconceptions, no disagreement before the player has kicked a ball. It wasn't meant to be a negative, mate.

He's so much more reserved than he was at Swansea or Liverpool, I guess maybe he has learned the lesson from talking a big game before and getting slated for it, hopefully looking for his teams to do the talking on the park for him here.

Doesent matter, if he does well it will be off his own back but if he struggles it will be because his hands were tied, its the (current) celtic way.

Possibly because of his attachment to the club? Might not want to upset family, or undermine the history of the club imposing his personality upon it in such an outward fashion as perhaps he did at Liverpool and Swansea.
