Bradley J (2019) Brendan Rodgers' Celtic 'betrayal' reveals just what football means in Scotland. The Conversation. 07.03.2019.

Abstract
First paragraph: "There was a time when it would have been inconceivable a club of Celtic’s size and history would lose their manager to Leicester City." That was the verdict of player-turned-pundit Jamie Carragher in the Telegraph last week, after Northern Irishman Brendan Rodgers departed one of Europe’s most famous and successful clubs for a lacklustre Leicester languishing in the middle of the English Premier League (EPL). As far as Celtic fans are concerned, the real “BR-exit” has not gone down well. It seems the Glasgow club was simply a stepping stone back to England – a career move.
