I would like to see a big massive protest to Hampden demanding the sfa punish the taigs

That’s the only issue! The bloodlust from nearly every club in this country and their supporters that went after us will never happen to the tarriers and that’s why they will certainly avoid any sporting sanctions.

when you read that....its quite stunning. So mccafferty has already pled guilty to some charges - is he to stand trial on further charges as well? that took place while he was a celtic employee?

He was convicted in N. Ireland and has since appeared on Petition at Livingston Sheriff Court charged with further offences, at least some of which appear to relate to his time as an employee of celtic.

When you read just how many of these abusers worked at celtic it becomes very clear why they must be squirming at the prospect of claims. What a despicable bunch of people, if you can call them people.

Fair dos to Daly, he's not missing them and hitting the wall!  Their directors are woven right through it.

This bit stood out, his professional club clearly failed him in their duty of care

"Kenny, now 46, joined celtic Boys Club in 1985 as a 13-year-old. A year later, he joined the U-14s, which was managed by Torbett.Kenny was subjected to four years of sexual abuse at the hands of Torbett, which carried on after he signed professionally for celtic FC. Kenny made about 20 appearances for celtic reserves."

TTo the media looking in on this thread this isn't anyone gloating just purely turning the spotlight.

For years every bear has listened and been told how we have no morals cheats and whatever else even after its proven otherwise.

During live court cases every tim was a tax lawyer and given airtime one ClydeSSB during jim delahunts time and more recently gerry mcculloch.

The dam is about to burst and fuck knows what's gonna unfold. Just let the world know

Glasgow c*ltic they let there club lie

“Janine Rennie, chief executive of the Wellbeing Scotland charity which supports victims of abuse, said celtic's statement does not go far enough.

She told STV: "We're delighted that celtic have broken their silence and come out with a statement, but we feel it falls short of what the survivors were looking for, which was a full apology.

"I don't think the survivors ever felt it was a separate club. They joined celtic because they had a commitment to celtic as young men. They were looking to move on to the full team. So there was a perception that the Boys Club was part of the main celtic team.

"While I can see why celtic are trying to distance themselves, it's not ringing true for many of the survivors."

Ms Rennie said she has spoken to some of those abused by Torbett who are "pretty distressed" by the celtic statement.

"They want acknowledgement of what happened to them. I think the survivors wanted to see celtic take responsibility for what happened," she added.”

 

This is the sad part of this whole sordid affair, that bastardised football team must of known that fucked up statement would have affected the victims.
