Rodgers said: “Celtic have been terrific, especially since the turn of the year. They’ve been the best team, consistently, and all the players, staff and people at the club have got their reward.”

But supporters at Celtic Park have been left reeling by his remarks as some are still hurt by his departure in February 2019.

Rodgers won two of those nine championships and was on course for three before he left with the club eight points clear at the top of the table.

The snake done a good job, but do us all a favour and never mention his name again. The minute he walked out on us mid season, he relinquished all Celticfc rights.

9 in a row is completely ruined now. The achievement means nothing.

Celtic don’t give this man who tried himself to derail our dream of 10 in a row any airtime…..left trying to boost his ego taking all backstaff at a crucial time of the season
