New Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers is hoping to pack out the stadium again and bring Champions League football back to the club. The former Liverpool and Swansea manager signed a 12-month rolling contract with his boyhood heroes on Monday.And the 43-year-old is aiming to consolidate Celtics position as top club in Scotland after replacing Ronny Deila as manager. Crowds have fallen away at Celtic Park despite the Hoops stretching their sequence of Scottish Premiership titles to five-in-a-row, with some fans unhappy at the style of football on show and a group of shareholders unsatisfied with the lack of progress into Resolution 12, in which Celtic are seeking answers from the SFA over possible lost revenue from UEFA competition in 2011.But Rodgers believes he will have more chance of fulfilling his aims if he can persuade most of the discontented supporters to return. Celtic supporters put on a show before a Champions League match We want to dominate in Scotland and qualify for the Champions League. We will need the fans to do that, the Northern Irishman said.This is an incredible football club and the support here is phenomenal. I need to get those stands full again.The top tier of the Lisbon Lions stand has been closed or empty and it is my job to get people in here again and inspire the supporters to come back and watch a game of football that inspires and excites them and is about scoring goals and winning. Rodgers believes he is taking over one of the biggest clubs in the world Ultimately that is what we want to do and if we can do that then we will be on the right track.Here is not just about winning. Celtic is brought up to win in a way football, style, identity and that is something that hopefully we can create here and make the supporters proud of their team.Rodgers grew up supporting the Hoops from his home in the north of Ireland, and he recalled some memories of following the clubs fortunes.I have my uncles and cousins here, it was they who started me off on that front, Rodgers said. It was from early years, listening on the radio. Ronny Deila paraded the Scottish Premiership trophy twice in two seasons The first game I went to was 1984, it was a friendly, Celtic versus Finn Harps over in Ireland, that was my first memory.I was 11 years of age and from then I have been in the Celtic family with many relations, brothers, cousins, uncles all throughout the world, huge supporters and it is very much being their life.I am very lucky to be able to step out of the stands and onto the sidelines and manage the team.

The result means Atletico Madrid now tops the table, with Madrid level on points in second and Barcelona a point behind in third with nine games remaining as the title race shapes up to be the closest in years.Everton manager Roberto Martinez has urged John Stones critics to be more rational in their assessment of him. The 21-year-old was castigated for his mistake which led to the Netherlands first goal in their come-from-behind friendly win over England at Wembley on Tuesday.Even at such a young age Stones has built a reputation as a ball-playing centre-back, but his detractors say he should play the percentages once in a while and his midweek mistake was an example of his weakness. Martinez disagrees, however, with the level of pressure put on Stones.In my eyes he has been probably the victim of incredible scrutiny that is hard to explain, said Martinez.If we all want English football to do well and the national team to do well we should be a little bit more protective of our players.It is all too easy to praise a player and then too easy to criticise a player. I think we should be more rational about where the development is of a footballer.He is demanded by everyone to be the perfect footballer but thats not going to happen. Stones has started just one of Evertons last five games He has learned from his decision and what he does on the pitch. At 21 he is well ahead of where he should be and I think we should all be a bit more aware he is a young player.Stones has started just one of Evertons last five matches after returning from injury - and he was withdrawn at half-time in the game he did start. Stones battles for the ball with Swanseas Wayne Routledge Martinez has been criticised for keeping the youngster out of the side but the Toffees boss believes it will benefit him in the long run.ddddddddddddWe care about our players and the character he has is what is going to make him the player he can be, said the Spaniard ahead of the trip to face Manchester United at Old Trafford. In my eyes he has been probably the victim of incredible scrutiny that is hard to explain Roberto Martinez Competition for places keeps you grounded and allows you to understand the way you perform and levels you reach on the pitch have an effect on whether you are to be selected or not.That is a part of the process of developing and learning in your position and that is where John is.He should be given a bit more time, space and understanding. Clearly he has to learn and learn quickly and competition for places in our squad will force him to do that, not any other reason.You can watch Everton in action against Manchester United on Super Sunday.By purchasing a Sky Sports Day Pass for £6.99 or Sky Sports Week Pass for £10.99, you can enjoy access to all seven Sky Sports channels and watch on a TV with a NOW TV Box or on a range of devices.
