Quite an unveiling for him there today. They had pyro aswell apparently. Bit much but good for him, hope he does well.

On a side note Celtic 'fan' Joey Barton looking like he will sign for Rangers

I don't get the vitriol for him. Yes it became **** under him, yes he talks a lot of ****e, he's easy to take the piss out of and he's not a patch on Jurgen, but he got us to within two points of the title. Better IMO to remember those good times - those amazing times - that season and wish him well.

Thanks for THAT season..... But meh

The 'Paradise' name comes from around the time Celtic moved from their original park to a newer one. Apparently when comparing the old park to the new one it was apparently like moving to paradise.

The stadium is in an area of Glasgow called Parkhead. (It is amongst the poorest parts of the country but a lot of regeneration work took place in the lead up to the Commonwealth games and the area has vastly improved. Stilla ****e hole mind )

You're right though it's cringeworthy as **** to see a manager refer to it as 'paradise' but then that's wee Brendan to a tee

Cheers spud.

Good luck to him. He did his best with us and came up short. His flannel started to grate a bit by the end and i can't see it going down too well in Glasgow but at least he'll get chance to gain more European experience. I won't miss him though

[Nicey]

Does anyone actually care what this chancer does?

He's cringeworthy.

I hope Rangers absolutely ruin them.

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

i had to google it never heard it referred to as that. Is that mainly a scottish thing? never heard it before.

[spud_gun]

Why is it referred to as Paradise? I've never heard that before.

Funnily enough we were talking about the Celtic park, Parkhead thing on Wednesday. After my Celtic season ticket supporter referred to the Upton Park, Boleyn Ground scenario. Who knows, it's always been Parkhead to me?

Brendan (typically) is the first person I've EVER directly heard refer to it as paradise. It's pretty cringeworthy, same as Theatre of Dreams is.

It's been a few years since I took a season ticket but, yes, it's tough going most of the time.

Escalation

i dont want to stick the knife into brendan but hes gone to a pisspot league where celtic have no competition. Its a good move for someone looking to rebuild their reputation. I think he will do ok there. Its about his level.

Hey i said in an earlier post good luck to him,but some of the hysteria is way OTT.

[fidget]

I'll bet we're still going to make up at least some of the difference between his wage and the £5m

Some real Ass kissing going on: Dermot Desmond described Rodgers as "a great manager"
"Brendan is a highly-sought after manager and we are pleased we have been able to bring such a high calibre individual to Celtic," said chief executive Peter Lawwell.

"We wanted to bring one of the biggest and best names to the club to match our own aspirations .
"We have appointed a special manager
