Brendan Rodgers

Some clubs have a history of taking their best managers and elevating them to hero status.

Villa ain't one of them. Can you even name the manager who won their European trophy without Googling it?

I reckon most Villa fans couldn't either.

[Fosterbloke]

Oh.



You're a prick, too.



When Foresterbloke and the like spout more sense than you then you know it's time to hang up the keyboard.

Is '/me' working again?

"I can't wait to be in paradise"

You don't know much about Celtic's history do you?

You don't know much about Celtic's history do you?

Being a Scottish, I have a feeling he's reasonably well informed.

[Fosterbloke]

Then he'd know it's not that cringeworthy. Unless he's passing it off as a Rodgersism?

It seems odd that Celtic are bringing Rodgers in to improve their performances in Europe, he was a complete disaster during our CL campaign. I don't like him and I don't even particularly wish him well. He's full of ****, I'm amazed that a big club like Celtic seem so keen. They will win their league of course they will.

Celtic are a big club in Scotland.

Elsewhere they barely register. They think do. He thinks he does.

It's kinda poetic really.

Celtic won the European Cup. They are a big club. Aston Villa are a big club too and look at them now.

I bear no ill towards him. Ultimately he failed at our club and he was given the opportunity to fail, and to succeed.

We parted ways. After we were within a smidgen of winning the league, which would have been almost (but not quite) as improbable as winning the Champions League in Rafa's first season.

It didn't work out. Good luck to him.

By that definition, Nottingham Forest are a big club too.

They really aren't.

[dom9]

Not to mention Everton.

I hate him to be honest, he's a complete ****wit.

They really aren't.

Forest are a big club. There aren't many clubs who have achieved European success, there are a lot of clubs who think that they're successful that have achieved nothing.

Yep. You're not the type to let rationale and objectivity to get in the way of seething blinkered emotion.
