pink_triangle Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) Can any of the Scottish contingent give an opinion on Jordan White a forward from Livingston we have signed Edited May 20, 2016 by pink_triangle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Given I was resigned to Roy Keane I'm absolutely over the moon with Rodgers. I know the Liverpool fans hate him but managing them and their expectations compared to managing in Scotland are two completely different scenarios.

Being reported up here that he came up for half of what he was being offered elsewhere although nice sum from Liverpool means he's not short of a bob or two. Celtic fan as a boy and pretty sure he will win his first trophy as their manager next season. Warburton trying to play decent football at rangers as well so hopefully good news for our top league.

SwedgeAntilles Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Aye. Compare Rodgers and Warburton to Lennon and McCoist. Leaving aside for a moment Lennon and McCoist's managerial ability (or lack thereof) both are steeped in the negative aspects of Scottish football, not of their own doing, but they are nonetheless. It's nice to have two actual football managers going against each other. Should hopefully mean next season is about who's the best football team as opposed to who's best at fights.

I think he was also quite complimentary about him when rumours started earlier in the week. It's a decent appointment, compare it to their last one.

metallimuse Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Rangers fan but I have to say I'm very impressed by Celtic getting Rodgers. When I heard,for the first time my mind thought of the possibility of them getting 9 in a row again or God forbid 10. Don't think they will mind you but a doubt flashed through my mind.

We were expecting to meet livy in the playoffs but Stranraer knocked them out. Spotted he's been freed from a couple of clubs and never moved for a fee. He's doing the right thing leaving livingstone. I think they are doomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I don't think we'll get 10 either. I always remember hearing we were ten years behind Rangers the season before Martin O'Neill took over, and we won the league the next season. I don't think Rangers are that close but after one season in the SPL (in which they'll finish second) they'll have a good chance the next. Also re Warburton and Rodgers, are they not actually very good mates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it's 'good mates' or not, but didn't they work together at Watford? I read something a few days ago which had Warburton being complimentary towards him.

metallimuse Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 No idea about their relationship but I know Warburton said he left Watford due to not getting on with someone and they are no longer there now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Jass Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Terrible piece of refereeing there. Didn't think it was a foul, but if it was why not play on when Wickham was through? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlastoSimon Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 To be fair, United getting a lot of stick but its Mou's agent who's said he's going for meetings on Tuesday, rather than the club itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedgeAntilles Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 EPL should be great entertainment next season. I do wonder if Jose's impending return will have any effect on the Arsenal boardroom. If Arsene couldn't win the league against the current crop of managers is he going to have any luck against Guardiola at City and Mourinho at Man Utd?

pink_triangle Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) I thought the Scottish cup final was better than the English one.

When you see them back to back it's so noticeable the gulf between hampden and Wembley. Great memories over the years from hampden but it's pretty shit. Was at the old Wembley once a while back and was at the Scotland England friendly a couple of years ago at the new Wembley. Fantastic venue to watch football. Watched a bit of the German final as well. Good ending for pep. Surely he can't fail when backed with the money at city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who has seen my team lose 2 times out of a possible 2 in the new Wembley, I suspect its probably a fantastic venue to watch football if you win! I went to the old Wembley once for the Euro 96 final and can understand why they wanted a new one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Behind the nets your just too far away from the action. The atmosphere can be great at a sold out midweek international but It's pretty shit compared to Wembley and the millennium. Was over at the aviva a couple of years ago and it's pretty good apart from the wee shity end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
