Simon Jordan has told the Green Brigade to “grow up” after they doubled down on their Brendan Rodgers anger.
The fan group shared an image of the banner they unfurled following Rodgers’ departure for Leicester City back in 2019. It read: “You traded immortality for mediocrity. Never a Celt, always a fraud.” In response to Rodgers returning to Celtic on a three-year deal this week, the fan group reiterated their feelings by posting a reminder.
But Jordan has told them to get real and get over it now that Rodgers is back. The talkSPORT co-host acknowledged that fans never want to see successful bosses leave, but the realities of football mean there’s always going to be someone offering more money and and a bigger stage. Jordan has challenged Rodgers to make more of a mark in Europe than Ange Postecoglou did, citing Rangers’ run to the Europa League final last year as a perfect example to try and follow.
