The news that Celtic have reportedly been in discussions with former manager Brendan Rodgers about a potential return to Parkhead has sparked a flurry of reactions, notably from PLZ Pundit, Peter Martin. Known for his frank analysis and forthright opinions, Martin reminded his Twitter followers of Rodgers’ controversial tenure at the club.
“Some people have short memories,” Martin wrote on Twitter. “Player revolt, tedious football, European humiliation and a man declaring his love while working his ticket out of the club.”
These words hark back to a time when the Bhoys were grappling with internal conflicts, a lackluster playing style towards the end of Rodgers run, and notable embarrassments on the European stage Not to mention, Rodgers’ abrupt departure from the club in 2019 left many fans with a bitter aftertaste.
However, it’s worth mentioning that the passage of time and a need for stability seem to have softened many fans’ stance on Rodgers. The Northern Irishman, despite the acrimony surrounding his exit, had led Celtic to multiple domestic honours and played a significant role in establishing their dominance in Scottish football in the last ten years.
Ultimately, the majority of the Celtic faithful appear to be adopting a pragmatic approach, signaling their willingness to forgive and forget, provided that Rodgers can deliver where it counts the most – on the football pitch. As ever, winning games will be the key to winning hearts.
Regardless of personal views and past events, the fans’ unwavering desire for the club’s success remains clear. As talks with Rodgers continue, the overarching sentiment among supporters is this: no matter who sits in the manager’s chair, Ange’s work must be built upon.
Martin is a fat irrelevant turd a dinosaur from corrupt media trying to keep the filth and cockny wanker relevent.
Who would you prefer Pete?
Peter McGuire should just stop the trolling
If Brendan takes the job all these press jackals will be eating crow and crawling over broken glass to get an interview with him and worm their way into his contacts book again.
