July 12, 201610 yr And now losing ha ha. Let's be fair, Lincoln Red Imps are amongst the best teams in, err, Gibraltar.
July 12, 201610 yr Post match comments from Brendan about playing Lincoln Red Imps, ranked 451st team in Europe: "There is obvious disappointment but there is no embarrassment. It was a tough game in tough conditions" Tough conditions??!
July 13, 201610 yr Brendan doing what he does best. What a win for the Gibraltan side. 28! I used to play in front of more people when I played Sunday pub league football. lol
July 13, 201610 yr Did BR mention the players played with commitment and energy, only to fail because the weight of the shirt?
July 13, 201610 yr Did BR mention the players played with commitment and energy, only to fail because the weight of the shirt?Ha! Weight of the shirt, love it! Is it a two leg tie though? If so and Celtic progress at home then I have no doubt they'll have shown character, heart, passion and that there is no reason why they can't go all the way. When on form they're equal to the likes of Madrid, Bayern etc.
July 13, 201610 yr How do the Lincoln Red Imps (love the name btw) even get a Champions League spot? Ha! Weight of the shirt, love it! Is it a two leg tie though? If so and Celtic progress at home then I have no doubt they'll have shown character, heart, passion and that there is no reason why they can't go all the way. When on form they're equal to the likes of Madrid, Bayern etc. I don't know if that was sarcastic, but didn't they beat Barcelona not too long ago? Edited July 13, 201610 yr by offside
July 13, 201610 yr I don't know if that was sarcastic, but didn't they beat Barcelona not too long ago? They may have done but I wouldn't say that makes them equal in quality.
July 13, 201610 yr That side are probably no better than my home team here in Cornwall, for Celtic to lose to them IS embarrassing, no matter what Brendan Rodgers says.
July 13, 201610 yr That side are probably no better than my home team here in Cornwall, for Celtic to lose to them IS embarrassing, no matter what Brendan Rodgers says.I've just been to 5 a side and we've decided to ask Celtic for a preening season friendly. There will obviously only be ten in our team, but to even things up fat Gary our left back will play for Celtic.
July 13, 201610 yr They may have done but I wouldn't say that makes them equal in quality. Oh I didn't mean to imply that they are as good, and I admit that I communicated that poorly. I meant that on their best lucky day they can beat the best in the world, so it's especially weird that they can't even beat the Lincoln Red Imps. That's like us losing to a Conference side in the FA Cup.
July 13, 201610 yr Brendan doing what he does best. What a win for the Gibraltan side. THey got these stats off of Twitter from a guy that completely made them up. Shoddy from Sky
July 17, 201610 yr Brendan seems diminished in stature since his move to Celtic _90420847_rodgers.jpg
July 20, 20169 yr " I'll never be embarrassed by my bhoys. " The headline in one of todays Scottish newspapers sports sections, as Rodgers defends ( ? eh ) his teams performance last Wednesday !
July 21, 20169 yr has he talked about their great Character winning 3-0 at home to a semi pro team from Gibraltar yet?
July 28, 20169 yr RE: a 1-1 draw against Astana "It was an outstanding result. We're disappointed with the goal but I think after that we showed wonderful mentality to keep fighting. It's a very important result for us." "I think we were all written off before the game. Everyone was pretty clear in their opinion of the game, that we would do well to come back with anything other than a loss, but the players deserve an immense amount of credit, to fight and show spirit and passion in the game." "The resilience and strength that we have built up over the course of the pre-season came into effect."
July 28, 20169 yr I kid you not: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36909747 While I found him thoroughly irritating while he was Liverpool manager, I don't think he deserves quite as much mockery as he gets on here (especially considering his past with us), but I did have a bit of a chuckle at those comments. Especially considering this was against a side with such an illustrious history that their entire European record (i.e. every match) is listed on their Wikipedia page. Then again, they do have a player called 'sh*tov' so maybe I'm too quick to judge.
