At least it's a house of cards built on a lie and as much as I hate that child rape happened at the filth it could be about to come out and those responsible for the acts and the cover up will be punished and severely so.

Strip them of every penny of income until the victims are dead and then shut the club down for good and set the place on fire as it's the only way to cleanse the horror that went on there.

Given the paltry sentences handed down to these animals by the court i wouldnt hold my breath

Did anyone ever question these events?

Why was Torbett allowed this gushing farewell speech when the truth is he was ousted by bawface for sexually abusing children?

Then incredibly ..he was welcomed back..who sanctioned his return to the glitterdome? Kevin Kelly & Jack McGinn..who were also both directors in Torbetts Trophy Centre business?

Torbett recieves an award from  Bawface who threw him out three years earlier? 

During his sentence CFC  continued to trade with Torbetts trophy centre business..this contract was treminated in 2001...even while he was in jail..they were still lining his pockets

This story has more holes than swiss cheese ffs.

A former celtic Football Club youth coach and kitman has plead guilty to a series of child sex offences.

Jim McCafferty, 72, was involved in football in Scotland and Ireland from the 1980s.

He was arrested in Belfast by the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) after walking into a police station in December 2016.

He was charged with eight counts of engaging in sexual activity with the same child in Northern Ireland between December 2012 and December 2015.

McCafferty, who was accused of sexually touching a boy aged under 16, changed his pleas to guilty ahead of a scheduled trial at Belfast Crown Court.

Originally from Wishaw, North Lanarkshire, but more recently living in Raby Street in South Belfast, McCafferty was formerly a kitman at celtic, Hibernian and Falkirk.

The case has been adjourned until June 22 for pre-sentence reports to be compiled.

McCafferty left the court ahead of being returned to Maghaberry Prison.

The admission came after months of adjournments and assessments of McCafferty's mental state.

McCafferty, who lived in Wishaw before moving to Belfast, was arrested in December after giving an interview to Belfast Live and then walking into a Belfast police station.

McCafferty, who previously lived in Glasgow, worked at celtic Football Club more than 20 years ago

He was also a kit man for other Scottish clubs, including Falkirk and Hibs , before moving to Northern Ireland eight years ago.

McCafferty, who had been living in South Belfast, was due to be formally face abuse charges following his arrest last December, but the case was adjourned for the fifth time in 85 days

Lawyers for the prosecution and defence told Belfast Recorder Judge David McFarland that a recently received report from a psychiatrist indicated that McCafferty should be examined by other medical specialists.

[Bad Robot 21,148]

I can only presume this is for cases in Ireland so does anyone know if Police, Scotland are pursuing lines of enquiry in regards to Scotland ?

celtic, Hibs and Falkirk.

Are the charges relating to it happening at all three clubs or is this a dilution tactic?

Sounds very much like it that has nothing to do  with his time at the taigs  even though  sure it was him that confessed that the celtic boys club dressing room was like an orgy after some games

None of the changes are when he was with those clubs. 

So once again it’s sweep under the carpet what he got up to at the scum.

Get on to the BBC and demand they report on it then. Posting it on here where everyone already knows about the cover up does very little.

Where were they for?

 

[Howsitgoing 4,281]

Judge Smyth informed McCafferty that in light of his plea, he was now required to sign the Sex Offenders Register, with the length of time determined at a later date.

She also told the defendant this meant he is banned from working with children and vulnerable adults.

If that horrible bastardised football club had done the right thing years ago this animal would have been banned and on the register then. They are complicit in the young Irish boy getting abused. 

Police Scotland better be investigating this animal.
