Brendan Rodgers quits Celtic and an EFL special: Football Weekly - podcast

Brendan Rodgers has abruptly ended his tenure as Celtic manager, leaving the Scottish club without a top-flight chief. The news broke just hours before the team's match against Rangers, with Rodgers citing personal reasons for his departure. Celtic issued a statement expressing their gratitude to Rodgers and pledging to find "a new leader who shares our values".

Meanwhile, in the English Football League, Sheffield Wednesday has entered administration, sending shockwaves through the Championship. Despite this, fans are celebrating after news emerged that the club's debts had been reduced. Coventry City, meanwhile, is making headlines for all the wrong reasons - or perhaps the right ones? The Sky Blues are top of the Championship table, and their impressive form suggests they may just be a team to watch.

As we navigate the ever-changing landscape of English football, questions arise: what's behind the rise of Coventry City, and how long will it last? Will Sheffield Wednesday be able to bounce back from administration, or is this the end for the Owls?

We'll delve into these topics and more on today's Football Weekly podcast.
 
Ugh, have you guys seen the Celtic website lately? It's like a bad joke every time they update something πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. First, Rodgers just disappears without warning, and now I'm scrolling through their news page for what feels like an eternity trying to find out what's going on... meanwhile, the Rangers match is about to start and they're still talking about it πŸ˜’. And don't even get me started on their statement - all this flowery stuff about "sharing values" that basically just means Rodgers got bored πŸ™„.
 
omg what's going on with coventry city tho?! they went from 10th place in jan to top of the table now it's crazy 😲 i think it's cos they've been playing some solid football and their new coach has made some good moves, but u never know how long it'll last... maybe they just have a hot streak or something? πŸ€”
 
omg i just saw this thread about brendan rodgers leaving celtic and i'm dying like what happened?? 🀯 i know personal reasons can be super tricky but is it true he had a falling out with the board? πŸ€” also, have any of you been keeping up with sheffield wednesday's drama? i feel bad for their fans, but on the flip side, reduced debts are def a silver lining πŸ’Έ and coventry city is on fire right now! i'm loving their form so far, but will they be able to sustain it or are they due for a crash πŸ€” anyway, anyone got any thoughts on brendan's exit? 😊
 
Man, Celtic's got some major issues with their manager departures 🀯. Rodgers just left after 18 months, that's a pretty short stint. They're already talking about finding someone new, I feel like they need to sort out some stability before they can think about winning stuff again πŸ“ˆ. And what's up with Sheffield Wednesday? Admin is no joke, but at least they got their debt sorted πŸ’Έ... Coventry City on the other hand, 4-0 wins over 3 of their last 5 games, that's not normal πŸš€. They're like a dark horse in the Championship, will they keep it up or implode? πŸ€” Stats don't lie, but momentum is everything in football πŸ†.
 
just watched that news about brendan rodgers leaving celtic πŸ€”... i gotta say, it's a bummer for the fans. i mean, he did do some decent stuff at the club and all that πŸ’ͺ. but at the same time, i'm not surprised. football's always been an emotional rollercoaster anyway πŸ˜‚.

and now sheffield wednesday is in admin... that's just nasty 🀒. can't believe how quick they went downhill. but hey, their debts got reduced so maybe it's a silver lining? 🌞

but then there's coventry city and they're doing amazingly well! πŸ‘ i don't know if it's gonna last or not, but who cares right? πŸ˜‚ we'll just have to tune in to the podcast to find out more about their rise to fame πŸ“Ί.
 
Ugh, I'm so sad to hear that Brendan Rodgers left Celtic πŸ€•...I mean, personal reasons are okay, but it's always a bit of a bummer when someone has to leave a team they've been with for a while, you know? And on the other hand, I'm like super hyped about Coventry City right now πŸ˜‚! They're killing it in the Championship and I think they might just be a dark horse contender...but at the same time, I feel bad for Sheffield Wednesday 🀞 - admin is never easy to deal with. Can't wait to hear more about what's going on on that podcast later πŸ‘
 
Ugh, football always brings out the drama 😩. So Brendan Rodgers just chucked in as Celtic manager like that? I get it, personal reasons and all that... but can't he at least give us a bit of a reason? πŸ€” It feels so abrupt, like he just couldn't handle the pressure or something.

But on the flip side, those debts getting knocked out of Coventry City's books is HUGE πŸ’Έ. I mean, it's not every day you see a team turn their season around like that. They're definitely worth keeping an eye on - who knows what kind of magic happens if they keep this momentum up? ✨

And Sheffield Wednesday... yeah, that's a tough one πŸ€•. Administration is never fun for fans, but at least the debt reduction thing is a positive sign. Maybe they'll be able to turn it around and come back stronger than ever? Fingers crossed for them! πŸ‘
 
omg i was just at a celtic match last month with my fam and we were all so hyped lol Brendan rodsers seemed like such a cool guy too πŸ€” idk what personal reasons he had for leavin tho maybe his wife is movin to scotland or smthn πŸš€ anyway celebs like rangers is gonna be super tough 4 them now guess ill have to watch the podcast 2 find out wht happend πŸ“Ί
 
OMG you guys 🀯! Did you know that Celtic FC has been losing £30 million per year since 2020? 😱 That's crazy! Brendan Rodgers was probably just trying to get out of the mess, but now we're left wondering if they'll find a new manager who can turn things around.

And Sheffield Wednesday being in admin? 🀯 The stats are insane - their debts were reduced by Β£10 million, which is still a huge amount, but at least it's a start! πŸ”₯ Coventry City, on the other hand, has been on fire this season, with a win rate of 55% so far. That's crazy high! 🀯 Their average attendance is also up by 20% from last year, which shows that fans are getting excited about the team again.

According to ESPN, the Championship league table has seen an increase in viewership by 25% this season compared to last. πŸ“Ί It's clear that the league is gaining popularity, and teams like Coventry City are reaping the benefits! πŸ†
 
omg i cant believe brendan rodgers just up and left celtic in such a weird way 🀯 i mean im glad he got to leave on his own terms and all, but it feels like they were kinda counting on him to lead them through the rest of the season πŸ€” what does this say about the state of the club? and how are they gonna fill that void? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

anyway, cant help but feel a little bad for sheff wed tho πŸ˜” admin is so stressful, i hope they can get back on track soon. and coventry city is just wild right now lol what's gotten into them? do they actually have something special or is it just a fluke? πŸ€”
 
.. Celtic just went through a managerial change... again 🀯 I remember when Brendan Rodgers took over, everyone was hyped about how good he was gonna be. And yeah, he did do some great stuff, but you can't stay at one job forever, right? 😊 It's like that with life, you gotta move on to the next thing.

But, honestly, I'm a bit surprised Sheffield Wednesday went into admin... they're such an iconic club! πŸ™ Hope they bounce back soon. And Coventry City is killing it in the Championship now... love watching them play πŸ’ͺ Not sure how long this winning streak will last, but I'll be keeping an eye on 'em for sure πŸ‘€
 
I'm low-key surprised by Brendan Rodgers' sudden exit from Celtic πŸ€”. I know he mentioned personal reasons, but you can't help feeling like there was more to it than that πŸ˜’. On the flip side, Coventry City is killing the game right now! They're on fire πŸ”₯ and their form is definitely getting people talking. But for Sheffield Wednesday, it's a different story πŸ€•. Admin seems like a big deal and I'm not sure if they'll be able to recover from this. What do you think? Can Coventry keep it up or was it just a fluke?
 
just heard about brendan rodgers leaving celtic lol what's going on at those clubs?? i mean i'm glad they're doing well but you never know what's gonna happen in football πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/56244571

coventry city is on fire right now who would've thought they'd be top of the championship tho? πŸš€ maybe they can keep it up and show some other teams what's good πŸ’ͺ
 
man i feel bad for celtic fans, brendan rodgers was a great manager and it's weird that he just left like that no warning at all πŸ€” what could've been behind his decision? and now they're stuck without a top-flight chief until they find someone new... hope the new guy is better than the last one 😐

i'm kinda surprised by coventry city though, i mean they've been pretty inconsistent in the past but their form has been on point lately 🀯 could be that they finally have the right management team and coaching staff? or maybe they're just due for a change of luck? hard to say at this point

sheffield wednesday's admin is super concerning though, i mean how does that happen to a club with such a rich history πŸ€‘ hopefully it's not the end for them either... do you think it's gonna affect their chances in the championship or will they be able to bounce back? πŸ€”
 
OMG, I'm loving Coventry City's vibes right now 🀩! They've been on fire this season and I think they might actually do something in the Championship 😏. The question is, can they sustain it? Sheffield Wednesday's admin news is a bit of a bummer though... πŸ˜” Hopefully, they'll get back on track soon. Celtic's new manager search is interesting too, fingers crossed for someone who understands the Hoops' style πŸ•Ί.
 
OMG, IT'S SO BIZARRE THAT BRENDAN RODGERS JUST QUIT CELTIC LIKE THAT!!! 😱 I mean, i guess personal reasons can be a bummer for the team but also kinda good for celtic to find someone new who's gonna fit their vibe πŸ€”. BUT WAIT, SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY ENtering ADMINISTRATION?? 🚨 That's some crazy stuff! It's like, they're literally starting from scratch over here... will they bounce back or is this the end of OWLS AS WE KNOW THEM? 😭 AND COVENTRY CITY IS JUST ROLLING WITH IT LIKE "WE'RE GONNA TAKE THE CHAMPIONSHIP BY STORM" 🀘 Love it! Is this for real tho?? Can a team really go from worst to first like that?!
