Brendan Rodgers is now a martyr in the eyes of the Celtic support.
Not a misfit who made the mistake of retracing his steps back to Glasgow for a second stint in charge of the club. Brendan has gone from Janegate to Johngate over the course of successive weeks thanks to trial by television. It has become a soap opera that’s more Consternation Street than Coronation Street.
But it’s compelling viewing for fans who think there’s a witch-hunt against the manager evidenced by an SFA disciplinary hearing that will likely remove Rodgers from the dugout when Celtic play Rangers at Ibrox on April 7. What the manager should consider before appearing in front of the governing body on March 28 is the hire of a professor of linguistics. He could try the one who was brought on to BBC Scotland’s news programme The Nine to discuss Rodgers saying “good girl” to reporter Jane Lewis after Celtic’s league win at Motherwell last month.
The charge facing Rodgers is that he referred to VAR John Beaton as being “incompetent” during last Sunday’s contentious match with Hearts in Edinburgh. Beaton is Public Enemy No.1 for Celtic fans who have long regarded him as allegedly subverting the course of justice every time he officiates at one of their club’s matches.
The professor of linguistics, who said words could be as “bad as violence”, might be worth consulting on the subject of weaponising words in relation to match officials’ performance levels. The SFA’s Rule 72 states managers must not “indicate bias or incompetence” in any interview situation. Going by the letter of their own law, the hearing would seem unable to come to any verdict other than guilty where Rodgers is concerned.
In 54 years, I can’t think of any occasion when the SFA have found
