It’s a name some people still can’t bring themselves to say but Brendan Rodgers certainly has made his mark in the English Premier League since his move from Celtic almost three years ago.

After dominating Scottish football completing treble after treble, Rodgers left Celtic under a cloud as he made the move to Leicester City after the resignation of Claude Puel.

With the incredible Saudi led takeover of Newcastle finalised, all attention has been on the north east club as they look to appoint their big name manager to help spend their millions and save the club from relegation this season.

Brendan Rodgers was immediately linked with the job and in true Rodgers fashion that Celtic fans know all too well, he distanced himself from the job claiming Leicester City is the only club he has ever wanted to manage.

Respected journalist John Percy, took to twitter to rule Rodgers out of contention for the job but it had an all too familiar feel to it and the Celtic fans jumped right on it:

Now if we remember back when Rodgers was at Celtic and he was linked with the England managers job, the former Hoops boss uttered these immortal words, “I’ve just landed my dream job. The team I’ve supported all my life. I haven’t even walked out for my first game.

“Imagine me as a Celtic supporter having walked out on the job at Parkhead!”

But then I know Celtic fans will be targeted as being bitter because Rodgers walked out on them for the Premier League so I’ll leave the last word to this Watford AND Newcastle fan:
