FANS LEFT COMPLETELY SPEECHLESS BY BRENDAN RODGERS LATEST TWEET ABOUT CELTIC AND DERMOT DESMOND

Celtic supporters were left stunned after an incendiary post from former manager Brendan Rodgers began circulating widely on social media, igniting fresh turmoil in the wake of his resignation. The message, which has since gone viral, directly calls out club chairman and majority shareholder Dermot Desmond, sparking a firestorm among fans and pundits alike.

The drama began after Desmond public statement accusing Rodgers of being divisive, misleading and self serving in his final months at Parkhead. The tension escalated more when a post from Rodgers himself started trending across Twitter and Facebook. In the message, Rodgers allegedly addressed the boardroom power struggle head on, accusing Desmond of undermining his leadership, distorting the truth in the media and betraying the trust he placed in the club.

Rodgers has consistently suggested he felt unsupported in his role, despite previously being promised total control over recruitment and final say on football matters. The message also hints at his deep frustration with what he perceives as a public smear campaign from the club’s top brass.

Latest tweet from Rodgers:

“Too many untruths have been spread about my time at Celtic. I gave everything to the club but certain leaders undermined the vision we promised supporters. The truth will surface soon.”

One longtime Celtic fan told The Celtic Press that the message felt like Rodgers finally letting off steam. According to the supporter, the post read like the words of a man who had been hurt both professionally and personally.

Fan reaction has been immediate and polarized. Some supporters welcomed the post as a long overdue airing of internal issues while others warned it risks damaging Rodgers’ legacy and undermining his monumental achievements at Celtic across two spells. These include multiple league titles and domestic trebles that many supporters believe cemented him as one of the club’s most successful modern managers.

In his public statement Desmond defended the board’s structure, insisting that Rodgers had significant autonomy in signing and selling players and that his critical comments came entirely out of the blue. Desmond claimed the two had met for more than three hours at Rodgers’ home to attempt to resolve their differences but no reconciliation was reached.

One of the most hotly debated lines in Rodgers’ alleged post references a comment he made earlier in the season. He had compared Celtic’s squad building limitations to being handed the keys to a Honda Civic and being told to drive it like a Ferrari. That analogy which had previously annoyed Desmond has now become a focal point of fan discussion. Many supporters see it as evidence of Rodgers’ frustration with recruitment strategy while others view it as a failure of communication.

Meanwhile interim manager Martin O’Neill who has returned to steady the club following Rodgers’ exit tried to steer clear of the growing media storm. In a recent interview O’Neill expressed sadness over the rift between Rodgers and Desmond describing the breakdown as a tough moment for the club but urging supporters to focus on unity going forward.

Analysts believe that Rodgers’ alleged post regardless of whether it was actually written by him could have major consequences for how his second spell at Celtic is remembered. Football journalist Mark Atkinson noted that if genuine the message is not simply a parting shot but a defiant statement from a man who feels wronged. According to Atkinson the situation puts the board in the spotlight not only for its handling of Rodgers but also for broader questions surrounding club governance.

Rodgers has not confirmed or denied the viral message. Some insiders suggest he may be reluctant to re engage publicly so soon out of concern that further comments could inflame tensions with Desmond or with the wider fanbase.

Still the fallout is already being felt across the club’s community. Social media groups dedicated to Celtic governance are buzzing with debate and fan forums are filled with speculation about upcoming board decisions and the search for a new permanent manager. For many supporters the explosive post whether real or not serves as a reminder that the challenges facing Celtic may run far deeper than on pitch form and may involve structural and personal issues at the highest level of the club.

As the message continues to dominate conversation one thing is clear. The Celtic story far from being settled may be entering one of its most dramatic chapters yet.
