Good comment. The fact of the matter is money talks, status talks. The top six teams in the EPL and, in fact, the whole of the EPL, is a money magnet. Is that such a bad thing? Yes. "But its always been like that, it'll never change" Not unless the global impact of climate affectations, either way, will shrink economies. Of course, you can always rely on Sheikhs and their dirty money for the pleasure of seeing the rich clubs mop up everything. Personally, I don't watch EPL. I get my excitement from living creatively not from passive neo-liberal capitalism.
Not everyone has a billion quid to throw at CL! We work within our means. Hopefully BR can do something special. He is certainly capable. Celtic are a massive club. We expect big things. 💚🏆🏆🏆🏆
He’s not going backwards to Celtic. Celtic are a bigger club than 3/4 of the premier league and that is facts. Maybe not financially bigger but history wise and fans and love for the club. Definitely bigger than most clubs down south 🍀

True, but they can't compete financially with any PL club, not by a long way. Their competition domestically aside from Rangers is irrelevant, and they are now practically minnows in Europe, despite their history.
When we were in the UEFA cup final we had the 5th biggest wage bill in Britain and could actually compete. How things have change and how the premier league has ruined football

Rodgers did well at Celtic last time. I think Rodgers needs to do well in Europe. I think Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, Dundee United, Heart of Midlothian, and Hibernian could join the North American Major League Soccer, with Welsh and Irish clubs in a Celtic Conference to qualify for the MLS playoffs. Play eastern American and Celtic sides in the regular season. Merci. Thanks. -
Celtic is a huge club, in a small league everyone knows this, not only celtic but rangers are also a huge club, giving the financial backing with the fan base both would do well in any league, regardless I do think rodgers is a step backwards in my opinion, but the best unemployed manager at the current time, he will do a good job regardless.
Why didn't he go to Leeds United with the backing of the 49s and get Leeds United straight back up and challenging for trophies is that not a bigger job and put Brenden Rodgers back into the top managers in England and Europe, I would of thought that was a top managers job to put you back into the top shelf of manager's or is he going for the easy option and doesn't av the balls to take the Leeds United managers job.
@elmochacho3 yes you don't if your a celtic fan one team farmer league which you buy every year but still think referee's conspire again you, pathetic little club really. Its a shame used to admire how they took on the best 20/25 years ago celtic Park was a tough ground, ultimately the failed but at least had respect. Now I keep hearing on this how good you were against real Madrid despite losing 3 0 and 5 1. Pathetic, small club mentality Bournemouth don't celebrate failure like that.
Not withstanding what is right for Brendan Rodgers, we can only pontificate how he sqaures the circle or whether or not he is good enough for the premier league. At the end of the day, it's dollars for donuts.
Well obviously he won´t be getting the same wages as he got in the PL ... Celtic get 4 million (if that) tv revenue not 80-100 million that the EPL get.
Simon I think Rogers spits out the dummy when he docent get his own way? This time around with Celtic, Brendan will have gotten assurances on paper in regards to available funds and the actual signing of players! Simon as for Ange and Celtic competing in Europe you are missing the fact that Celtic had to sign a whole new team which is young and had no experience in Europe. If Brendan keeps the nucleus of this team for this coming Champions League ( A team that's actually won the league and not finishing second or third stealing another teams revenue from real champions) Then I think the Bhoys will quietly surprise the opposition like the battle of Britten games between Celtic and English oppositions? And what Keown says the results don't lie? Celtic have the better win average against English oppositions which Keown seems to have amnesia when he has to recall those results. Do those results lie Martin when Celtic become the victors in those Battle of Britten games?
@michaek7438 his name was mud and celtic fans wouldn't even say his name , he fucked any chance yous had of winning the holy grail of ten iar and now he's welcomed back with open arms , I predict he'll get hounded out again mid season probably season 24/25
Everyone knows why he did it ! getting Leicester relegated has affected his confidence,so he's gone to Celtic because it's not difficult to win a trophy up there,if it was,,he wouldn't have got 8 in 3 seasons .Even turned Leeds down because the Championship is tougher than winning the SPL !
Rodgers has taken the easy option, he's gone somewhere he knew would take him back in a heartbeat. But I didn't really know that Celtic had an in-house tanning salon. Wonder which club he will opt to help out the next time he returns South? Probably Chelsea when they get relegated to the EFL Championship.
Not precisely true but close enough. A few Tims think his "betrayal" is enough to ostracise him for life but it appears now the vast majority welcome it with some humour ("It's a 3 year contract and not the 2 and 3/4 year he was after")
For this to work, focus on the winning the league and getting out of the CL group. Ignore the cups. If BR does that, he will be loved by Celtic again and attract PL jobs again, IF....
Marriage of convenience, If he brings us success while he’s here who cares! Football is a mercenary business these days - Kiss the badge one minute, down the road the next….
Boys, boys, boys Celtic are hurting after losing Ange and Celtic need an experienced manager and to answer your critical wrongly placed questions as to you need to win the EPL? Well you will need to let us in first? That won't happen as if Celtic and The Ranger's joined the EPL we would make the EPL a 2 horse race in about 10 years, Like Real Madrid and Barcelona. As most leagues are a 2 horse race most seasons even in the EPL? Anyway due to the loss of Ange one thinks Dermot will be opening the cheque book to enable his club to have a better chance in Europe. However, though I think Celtic will do ok in the Champions League this season. It won't be until the second season in regards to CL football we will have a stronger squad assuming we win the league under Rogers campaign. But never the less we will hold our own this time round if we keep the nucleus of the squad. Do you honestly think Celtic supporters and Celtic football club would settle for anything less than winning, if we got into the EPL league of milk and honey. Oh and our owner isn't short of a few quid either it's in the billions and if granted into the EPL one thinks he would open his cheque book.
Celtic are so big that they are welcoming back the man that left them in a heartbeat, as soon as a midtable EPL team came knocking. He was out of your MASSIVE CLUB so quick, it was laughable
Brendan won his titles minus Rangers whereas Ang won one vs a strong Rangers and one vs a injury ravaged Rangers so Ange has a better record in my opinion. Rangers will win the league this season coming
@@derekruairc334 No it is simply factual bud, Brendan Rodgers won his titles and cups when Rangers were rebuilding after coming back up through the leagues. He ran to England first chance he got to "Prove himself in England" when it would have been better to try "prove yourself vs a full strength Rangers" then run to Liverpool THANKING Celtic for the huge opportunity. I am a Rangers fan but not bitter in the slightest in fact I like Celtic more than I like Aberdeen and I can admit that both Rangers and Celtic are bigger clubs than most in the world in the true sense of bigger, the history, the stadia, the epic fan bases, the sheer size of TRUE supporters etc not like Man Citys glory chasers, they could have done with such fan base in league 2, or the fact the majority of Man Utd fans are living in China and japan and have never seen a aairport in England never mind Old Trafford
@@MMABoxingcentral Firstly, it is true Rangers were rebuilding and Rodgers had a depreciating advantage over time but he won successive trebles and that surely is a sign of something he did right right. His rating of scottish football in general at the time you could say wouldn't have matched his rating of the EPL. He is a professional manager whose childhood team is Celtic. As the Jesuits say, many of the believing and informed young children in jesuitical teaching become Jesuits. "Once a Catholic, always a Catholic. There is a certain truth in that. Rodgers is a Celtic man, if he chooses it. I like Hibs and then it comes in ascending, order: Forfar, Dundee United, Aberdeen etc till i get to "I don't care" teams to finally, Rangers. Sectarianism blighted lives including members of my family. It was for me in my childhood a known reality. Fitba as bigger than life than death. You are right, the chasers are after glory, the real supporter is after local enjoyment, and support for their local team. My sister is a Catholic and a Rangers fan before Catholics ever played for Rangers. Hmm
I can see Rodgers walking away from Celtic this season. The psychological strain he will be under from his own fans after the way he left last time at Celtic. He was threatened by being shot in the head and Celtic supporters broke into his house. If Rangers go on a winning streak and Celtic drop points, wow, he's going to be under some amount of pressure. The abuse he's going to get outside football from his own fans.
Love how use rubbish our league up in Scotland would wipe floor in championship give us two year we would be top 4 easy use are really little minded English wanders down there
Rodgers is the next Lampard. 🤣. Tongue in cheek of course, but tough to have any respect for someone that got a team as talented as Leicester relegated. He waited to get fired. Gutless and pathetic. At least Conte went down showing some emotion. Good luck Celtic, just remember that when the going gets tough, this guy would be hiding under that proverbial rock.
BR in Europe will be an unmitigated disaster. His tactics in European games are absolutely shocking. But guess what? To be fair, he'll "defend this club (insert club name, any club) until my last breath". Commitment is not a word in smarmy BR vocabulary. Just ask his 1st wife
It's just a safe bet for Celtic, it's a backward step for Brendan Rogers, he's only going back to get his stock back up after the his downward spiral at Leicester
No EPL club will touch Rodgers with a bargepole. He's already a laughing stock in Scotland. An EPL reject for a small club like Celtc is the perfect match.
Going to Scotland is like dropping out of football no one takes them serious these days, Money put paid to the Scotish leagues as it did with english lower leagues. Rogers is toast as will be the new Spurs guy come xmas its the way of the world.
Agree. What’s the competition in that division as it has been for god knows how many years? Finish above Rangers and/or Aberdeen and the title is Celtic’s. The new Spurs boss may well get a culture shock when he realises what he has for a squad ( with or without Kane ) and he won’t be playing against the likes of St Mirren, Livingston and Motherwell week in, week out.

Celtic Fans : WTF the snake man have return what the hell is our board even thinking
I'm sorry but Celtics B team is bigger than Leicester, no brainer.
He left celtic for leicester and leicester binned him, and your club took him back like a good little cuck
Rodgers did well at Celtic last time.
I think Rodgers needs to do well in Europe.
I think Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, Dundee United, Heart of Midlothian, and Hibernian could join the North American Major League Soccer, with Welsh and Irish clubs in a Celtic Conference to qualify for the MLS playoffs.
Play eastern American and Celtic sides in the regular season.
Merci. Thanks. -
Not as embarrassing as Ranger - well played Simon. I think Simon is a Celtic man 😂😂😂
bang average manager(as a leicester fan)
Who remembers when rangers died. I love it.
Celtic is a huge club, in a small league everyone knows this, not only celtic but rangers are also a huge club, giving the financial backing with the fan base both would do well in any league, regardless I do think rodgers is a step backwards in my opinion, but the best unemployed manager at the current time, he will do a good job regardless.
Why didn't he go to Leeds United with the backing of the 49s and get Leeds United straight back up and challenging for trophies is that not a bigger job and put Brenden Rodgers back into the top managers in England and Europe, I would of thought that was a top managers job to put you back into the top shelf of manager's or is he going for the easy option and doesn't av the balls to take the Leeds United managers job.
Leeds? 😂 He chose Celtic over Leeds! Obvs wants the bigger club
Every time keogh says something, Simon slaps him down 👍
Simon should know - Chairman of CP to talk sports pundit is not a career step up.
If he just waited could of got a bigger club in Bournemouth
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bournemouths whole stadium wouldn’t even fill a corner of Celtic park.
@user-zq9eg8zh6v so what they have much better players and play in a real league
@@JB-qr3fs watch much football? Ever actually went to a game? 🤣
@elmochacho3 yes you don't if your a celtic fan one team farmer league which you buy every year but still think referee's conspire again you, pathetic little club really. Its a shame used to admire how they took on the best 20/25 years ago celtic Park was a tough ground, ultimately the failed but at least had respect. Now I keep hearing on this how good you were against real Madrid despite losing 3 0 and 5 1. Pathetic, small club mentality Bournemouth don't celebrate failure like that.
If he manages Celtic for 2 years and we get more than our cash back for him in compo it’s great business. 🎉
Not withstanding what is right for Brendan Rodgers, we can only pontificate how he sqaures the circle or whether or not he is good enough for the premier league. At the end of the day, it's dollars for donuts.
Rogers as the England manager, these guys don't have s clue.
Well obviously he won´t be getting the same wages as he got in the PL ... Celtic get 4 million (if that) tv revenue not 80-100 million that the EPL get.
Am I right and saying there is no drop down to europa league from champions league? If so it’s impossible to win a European trophy
Simon is a smart guy. But he’s wrong on this occasion. He needs to ask the reason why Celtic had poor competition from rangers the first time around.
Simon I think Rogers spits out the dummy when he docent get his own way? This time around with Celtic, Brendan will have gotten assurances on paper in regards to available funds and the actual signing of players! Simon as for Ange and Celtic competing in Europe you are missing the fact that Celtic had to sign a whole new team which is young and had no experience in Europe. If Brendan keeps the nucleus of this team for this coming Champions League ( A team that's actually won the league and not finishing second or third stealing another teams revenue from real champions) Then I think the Bhoys will quietly surprise the opposition like the battle of Britten games between Celtic and English oppositions? And what Keown says the results don't lie? Celtic have the better win average against English oppositions which Keown seems to have amnesia when he has to recall those results. Do those results lie Martin when Celtic become the victors in those Battle of Britten games?
" you traded immortality for mediocrity, never a celt, always a fraud. The words of the celtic fans 😊
The words of a group of Celtic fans. Not the whole fan base
@michaek7438 his name was mud and celtic fans wouldn't even say his name , he fucked any chance yous had of winning the holy grail of ten iar and now he's welcomed back with open arms , I predict he'll get hounded out again mid season probably season 24/25
Brendan Rodgers will be a few steps down from Ange Postecoglou.
Who the cares what Mr Crystal Palace thinks? Nothing to do with him.
Going to the second biggest club in Glasgow 😂. He'll leave once Brentford or Bournemouth call

Everyone knows why he did it ! getting Leicester relegated has affected his confidence,so he's gone to Celtic because it's not difficult to win a trophy up there,if it was,,he wouldn't have got 8 in 3 seasons .Even turned Leeds down because the Championship is tougher than winning the SPL !
He got 7 in 2.5 season's ya muppet, still can't slag us right,the epl's no longer the richest league in the world 😂🤣🍀⭐🇮🇪
Rodgers has taken the easy option, he's gone somewhere he knew would take him back in a heartbeat.
But I didn't really know that Celtic had an in-house tanning salon.
Wonder which club he will opt to help out the next time he returns South?
Probably Chelsea when they get relegated to the EFL Championship.
Not precisely true but close enough. A few Tims think his "betrayal" is enough to ostracise him for life but it appears now the vast majority welcome it with some humour ("It's a 3 year contract and not the 2 and 3/4 year he was after")
Hes a better coach than SJ was a chairman
Simon Who?😂
A poor choice to go back to Cfc a Premier league job would have come this season.
For this to work, focus on the winning the league and getting out of the CL group. Ignore the cups. If BR does that, he will be loved by Celtic again and attract PL jobs again, IF....
In 1967, Celtic won the European Cup. End of. Away back and chew the cud.

rodgers would be right spurs or a roma
He got an opportunity to take his boyhood team into a Champions league campaign with a strong squad.
simon jordan rogers never had the money available PULL you head IN
Boys, boys, boys Celtic are hurting after losing Ange and Celtic need an experienced manager and to answer your critical wrongly placed questions as to you need to win the EPL? Well you will need to let us in first? That won't happen as if Celtic and The Ranger's joined the EPL we would make the EPL a 2 horse race in about 10 years, Like Real Madrid and Barcelona. As most leagues are a 2 horse race most seasons even in the EPL? Anyway due to the loss of Ange one thinks Dermot will be opening the cheque book to enable his club to have a better chance in Europe. However, though I think Celtic will do ok in the Champions League this season. It won't be until the second season in regards to CL football we will have a stronger squad assuming we win the league under Rogers campaign. But never the less we will hold our own this time round if we keep the nucleus of the squad. Do you honestly think Celtic supporters and Celtic football club would settle for anything less than winning, if we got into the EPL league of milk and honey. Oh and our owner isn't short of a few quid either it's in the billions and if granted into the EPL one thinks he would open his cheque book.
Celtic are so big that they are welcoming back the man that left them in a heartbeat, as soon as a midtable EPL team came knocking. He was out of your MASSIVE CLUB so quick, it was laughable

Brendan won his titles minus Rangers whereas Ang won one vs a strong Rangers and one vs a injury ravaged Rangers so Ange has a better record in my opinion. Rangers will win the league this season coming
A fundamental theorem of not-quite-spot-on yearning hope, metinks
@@derekruairc334 No it is simply factual bud, Brendan Rodgers won his titles and cups when Rangers were rebuilding after coming back up through the leagues. He ran to England first chance he got to "Prove himself in England" when it would have been better to try "prove yourself vs a full strength Rangers" then run to Liverpool THANKING Celtic for the huge opportunity. I am a Rangers fan but not bitter in the slightest in fact I like Celtic more than I like Aberdeen and I can admit that both Rangers and Celtic are bigger clubs than most in the world in the true sense of bigger, the history, the stadia, the epic fan bases, the sheer size of TRUE supporters etc not like Man Citys glory chasers, they could have done with such fan base in league 2, or the fact the majority of Man Utd fans are living in China and japan and have never seen a aairport in England never mind Old Trafford
@@MMABoxingcentral Firstly, it is true Rangers were rebuilding and Rodgers had a depreciating advantage over time but he won successive trebles and that surely is a sign of something he did right right. His rating of scottish football in general at the time you could say wouldn't have matched his rating of the EPL. He is a professional manager whose childhood team is Celtic. As the Jesuits say, many of the believing and informed young children in jesuitical teaching become Jesuits. "Once a Catholic, always a Catholic. There is a certain truth in that. Rodgers is a Celtic man, if he chooses it. I like Hibs and then it comes in ascending, order: Forfar, Dundee United, Aberdeen etc till i get to "I don't care" teams to finally, Rangers. Sectarianism blighted lives including members of my family. It was for me in my childhood a known reality. Fitba as bigger than life than death. You are right, the chasers are after glory, the real supporter is after local enjoyment, and support for their local team. My sister is a Catholic and a Rangers fan before Catholics ever played for Rangers. Hmm
Wonder how simon will react when the saudi league overshadows the epl
I can see Rodgers walking away from Celtic this season. The psychological strain he will be under from his own fans after the way he left last time at Celtic. He was threatened by being shot in the head and Celtic supporters broke into his house. If Rangers go on a winning streak and Celtic drop points, wow, he's going to be under some amount of pressure. The abuse he's going to get outside football from his own fans.
Never heard so much shite concentrate on your own club and let us concentrate on another treble and improvement in the CL
another 2 years and brendan will leave celtic to go to the best league in the world saudi arabia
HA HA HA all the Celtic fans SLAGGING OFF Rodgers when he walked away and he will walk away when another club comes calling 😂😂😂😂
Celtic are Rodgers’s level…
Love how use rubbish our league up in Scotland would wipe floor in championship give us two year we would be top 4 easy use are really little minded English wanders down there
Rodgers is the next Lampard. 🤣. Tongue in cheek of course, but tough to have any respect for someone that got a team as talented as Leicester relegated. He waited to get fired. Gutless and pathetic. At least Conte went down showing some emotion. Good luck Celtic, just remember that when the going gets tough, this guy would be hiding under that proverbial rock.
BR in Europe will be an unmitigated disaster. His tactics in European games are absolutely shocking. But guess what? To be fair, he'll "defend this club (insert club name, any club) until my last breath". Commitment is not a word in smarmy BR vocabulary. Just ask his 1st wife
Let’s be honest, it’s a piss poor league & The EFL Championship is infinitely more competitive, maybe that’s why Rodgers chose Celtic over Leeds.
2 team league
It's just a safe bet for Celtic, it's a backward step for Brendan Rogers, he's only going back to get his stock back up after the his downward spiral at Leicester
No EPL club will touch Rodgers with a bargepole. He's already a laughing stock in Scotland. An EPL reject for a small club like Celtc is the perfect match.
A laughing stock in Scotland?? Haha seven trophies in his first spell 😂 some take that

Going to Scotland is like dropping out of football no one takes them serious these days, Money put paid to the Scotish leagues as it did with english lower leagues. Rogers is toast as will be the new Spurs guy come xmas its the way of the world.
Agree. What’s the competition in that division as it has been for god knows how many years? Finish above Rangers and/or Aberdeen and the title is Celtic’s. The new Spurs boss may well get a culture shock when he realises what he has for a squad ( with or without Kane ) and he won’t be playing against the likes of St Mirren, Livingston and Motherwell week in, week out.
