Despite the shocking move, the Celts’ skipper Brown says that he is still in contact with Rodgers through text messages. He also hailed the Northern Irish mans’ reputation.
Brown said, (h/t The Sun)
Yes, I speak to him quite a lot.
“We just speak in general . . . the way his team has been playing, how I am getting on, how he is getting on. It’s just mates chat, really.
“That won’t change. For me, Brendan’s reputation is unbelievable.

Brown also revealed that Rodgers was a huge fan of the Hoops. The Scotts midfielder further wished him the very best in his new journey.

At the same time, Brown didn’t fail to sing the praises of current interim manager Neil Lennon.
He came and started this great runoff. It’s seven in a row so far, so here’s hoping we can get another one on the tally at Aberdeen.”
