Todays press conference: https://vimeo.com/179452995

Couple of snippets of him refusing to give the press the headlines they are desperate for:

It's a good listen. He dealt with the deliberate banana skins regarding Barton and UEFA sanctions with aplomb.
It's so blatantly, craply obvious as well. Obviously the rebate of the journalists (I'm abstaining from putting inverted commas round that word just because it seems too easy) is to offer these "banana skins" of questions and they're basically contractually obliged to do so, headlines and that. But the "does it show a lack of class" question was like waving a banana in his face, peeling it front of him and laying at his feet. Just pish.

It was the guy on the far left of that picture. I suggested last year that Celtic TV should film the journalists asking the questions. I have no idea why they don't do it.

He treats them with disdain bordering on contempt, but politely enough that he doesn't look like an arsehole. It's beautiful :lol:

That GIF is brilliant but the real look comes during it when the next question is asked. He focuses on the guy asking it but quicjly has a look over at the other guys before returning his attention to the guy asking the new question.

Never mind the Barton questions being a joke, who's the rocket that asked if Scott Brown was world class?

Call me paranoid but I suspect that was done hoping to try and spin a negative 'Rodgers slags off captain' headline. Thankfully he knows how sleekit these carrots are.

Said earlier he has them on toast, as MON did. More intelligent, more articulate and is in control of something they hate.

Sorry for posting that link to the DailyRecord article again and if I had bothered to read through the last few pages, I would have noticed the topic was already overdone.
