Docherty has nothing but respect for Rodgers but jokes he could see his return to Scottish football far enough...
Tony Docherty is delighted to see Brendan Rodgers back because he believes he gives Scottish football even more of an X-Factor.
“He has also maintained his humanity and he is such a good guy to speak to. He is good company and I look forward to seeing him on Saturday. He claimed: “There is no doubt in my mind with the level of coaching and managerial experience that it will only be a matter of time and that added with the squad he is trying to build. When you play the Old Firm you try and catch them at a time when we can be at our best and they can be a wee bit off it. “I have huge respect for the football club and the manager and players there.
“Celtic are at the top of the league and I want my team to test themselves against them and for me I want to test myself against a manager who I have the highest respect for. That is why we are involved. It is all about the team.
