They've done pretty well to get him I think, should imagine he could have got a PL job.
Might help him learn how to win aswell as being a good coach
Interesting season with the OF next season, both have good managers

Definitely a statement of intent from Parkham. Going to be interesting to see how they buy this summer.

First reaction would be that I can't understand him going there. However, it probably says more about how little opportunity there is for home grown managers in the Premier League.

Thought he'd be a bit more ambitious than Celtic? Could easily have got a PL club

He's gone for the easy option here.

Watford or Celtic or hang around and see if Newcastle comes up, but they didn't go for him after McClaren.
European football and possibly a chance to manage a league winning side, I reckon he's done the right thing personally.

The easy option was sitting in the house and collecting his Liverpool gardening leave salary for the next 2 years.

No Newcastle went for Benitez who was clearly the better option.
Its a given that Celtic will win the league. They've just won it with Ronny Deila being in charge. Like I said, thought he'd be a bit more ambitious.

Another chance to prove that he actually is a decent manager

I remember a few on here claiming that he already was a decent manager,but my nan could have finished 2nd n the league with Suarez in the team

Villa would have been a better choice or at least wait until what happens at Newcastle and Benitez.
Ideal fit for either of those clubs

But not if she'd played him in goal!

Rodgers is from NI and with a name like Brendan was almost certainly a Celtic supporter as a kid (everybody in NI who follows football takes some interest in either Rangers or Celtic, if only as a secondary team after a Premiership team).

I think it's a great appointment for celtic. Plays a good style of football and I'll bet the increase in ticket sales will pay his wages. Looking forward to next season for a change.

As a Birmingham fan I am only sorry he didn't get the Villa job.
