The former Celtic and current Leicester City manager had a birthday yesterday.
It looked set to be a great weekend for Celtic and its fans.
Not only did Neil Lennon’s side smash Ross County 3 -0 to move five points clear of Rangers in the Scottish Premiership title race, but then their Ibrox rivals went and lost 2-1 at Tynecastle on Sunday.
Celtic have still played one game more, but winning nine league titles in a row is now back in their own hands.
As far as weekends go, it couldn’t have gone much better, but then their club’s official Twitter account went and wished Brendan Rodgers a happy birthday.
The Northern Irishman, who won seven domestic trophies out of a possible seven during an unbelievable two-and-a-half year spell in Glasgow, turned 47 yesterday.
Despite his success at Parkhead, Rodgers arguably tarnished his legacy with many fans of the Scottish giants by walking out last February to take the Leicester City job.
