    Bury your head in the sand as long as you like - just please take Congerton ... & let me know what you think of him when he's spent your '£200m'.

    You give him no money to spend and he has to try to get players to sign for to play in the Scottish Pub League. Who are you expecting him to sign?

    We pay £12M to get Benkovic out the Croatian league and you loan him. Obviously you seen him but couldnt afford him or convince him to sign for you.

    Only one person burying their head here. Are you an ostrich?

    He hasnt been given “£200M”. I wouldnt believe what you read

    Aye, I suppose levity is the best way to deal with my question when you've made an arse of yourself.

    As for Congerton, im not sure its the best move, or a necessary one, nothing wrong with Macia for me.

    Read back what's been said on here. No one was slagging off Leicester and no one was trying to make the SPFL out as something it's not, you're the one looking down his nose at Scottish football without even having the slightest grain of knowledge on the subject. "Decent"? What the **** does that even mean? Is it the EPL? Clearly not, but that's the only benchmark you seem to have to judge things, everything pales into comparison with the only league you know, that's the hard truth of the matter.

    Your board identified and hired Brendan Rodgers on the basis that his Celtic team played attacking, attractive football and were rather successful at it too. Likewise your board seem not to be cursed with the ignorance you are displaying, an unfathomable dislike of Scottish football based on ignorance and by the sounds of it, petty spite.

    SKY SOURCES: Brendan Rodgers’ wife and six-year-old step-daughter barricaded themselves in bathroom as their Glasgow home was burgled in the early hours of this morning. #SSN

    When it was first reported i just assumed that it was empty, but this is awful to hear, probably going to scar that poor girl for a while.

    I agree with you, all burglars are scumbags.

    As per above all burglars are wastes of breath (having been burgled myself) but yeah if this was some revenge thing for him leaving it’s absoltely pathetic and lower than low, ****ing pond life. How can grown adults behave like this about the manager of their team leaving, ****ing boo boo! The fans don’t deserve this treble treble or whatever it is

    I reckon his family are all in Leicester now anyway. Hopefully the young girl isnt mentally scarred by it for too long

    Everyone and his mother knows Rodgers has left Glasgow. The arseholes who broke in probably assumed incorrectly that his house was empty. I doubt this is a "revenge burglary", if it is then it's the first that I've ever heard of.

    Exactly, Dev but it seems this so-called Leicester fan is being wilfully obtuse and due to his ignorance is incapable of having a rational conversation on any topic outside of his own little world. Thankfully, going by the other posters on this forum, he's not typical of Leicester fans in general so I'd be inclined to just ignore him and leave him to his childish insults.

    As for the scumbags who broke into Rodgers' home, I reckon that, knowing he was in Leicester, they thought the house was empty. Rodgers' wife and stepdaughter must have been absolutely petrified and it'll take them some time to get over that horrific experience - would be great to see the lowlifes caught and hopefully they will be soon. Unfortunately, it's not the first time someone's being burgled when they've been away, quite a few footballers' included.

    Apparently the thieves took boxes that contained his medals and trophies that he won with you - this is the main reason why people think it is a revenge robbery.

    Could equally be the case that because they were already in boxes, they were the easiest things to take but whatever the reason, it is an horrific situation for his family and hopefully they will get the help that they will need as not feeling safe in your own home is awful.
