Rodgers took charge of his first competitive game for Celtic on Tuesday night and, needless to say, it did not go well as they suffered a surprise defeat to Lincoln Red Imps of Gibraltar.
And in spite of Rodgers' insistence that "there was no embarrassment" after the game, Barton could not contain his amusement at the plight of his rivals.

We're sure that Barton is no stranger to getting abuse in his Twitter mentions and must have expected the vitriolic reaction that his post would provoke.
