RODGERS’ first press conference as Leicester City will be broadcast live by the Premier League club from 1.30pm today on Twitter, Facebook and on the club’s website.
The former Celtic manager is bound to be asked about the circumstances of his Celtic departure and the rumours this morning were that he will claim that Celtic told him to leave immediately rather than wait to to end of the season.
Many Celtic supporters want to move on and would prefer that Rodgers is ignored now but plenty of others want to hear what he has to say. So this is a heads up, Rodgers will have his say starting at 1.30pm…
Meanwhile Celtic have removed all copies of his biography from the shelves. There have been footage of fans burning or destroying their copy of the Rodgers book on social media over the past few days.
The book, which was a pretty poor read, was nevertheless a HUGE seller and was re-printed on several occasions to meet the massive demand from the Celtic support. Few hardback books, in any sector, will have sold more copies that that one in recent years in the UK never mind in Scotland.
Here’s a wee reminder about the publicity that was put in place by Celtic for the book launch.
