celtic Boys Club ex-chief Frank Cairney faces abuse charges

 

A former senior figure at celtic FC’s feeder club will face charges of sexual abuse within weeks.


Frank Cairney, 84, served as general manager of celtic Boys Club from 1974 until 1991.


The Crown Office confirmed that Mr Cairney, of Uddingston, South Lanarkshire, has been charged and is involved in a live case. It is understood that the charges relate to the alleged sexual abuse of young people. A Crown Office spokeswoman said: “Frank Cairney has one live case that is scheduled to call at Glasgow sheriff court as an adjourned first diet on October 30.”


Mr Cairney took over as general manager of celtic Boys Club in 1974, replacing Jim Torbett, the founder of the feeder club.


In 1986 Mr Cairney contributed an article to a souvenir brochure produced to mark the 20th anniversary of celtic Boys Club.


He wrote: “We have helped to make a lot of young boys happy. It makes me even happier to think we are fulfilling a role in their development. I will have special thoughts for every boy who has represented the boys’ club during the 20 years of our existence.”

Mr Cairney resigned from the boys’ club in 1991 after leading 20 teenagers and five adults on a summer tour to New Jersey. He was present at Parkhead when Tommy Burns, his former protégé, was presented as the new celtic FC manager three years later.


On July 29, 1994, the celtic View, the club magazine, lauded Mr Cairney as “one of the great unsung heroes of the celtic story”. Burns, who died of skin cancer aged 51 in 2008, said Mr Cairney had brought him to the boys’ club as a teenager and had been his confidant and mentor ever since, adding: “He’s given 30 years of his adult life championing the celtic cause.”


The 1994 report said: “Frank was brought into the celtic set-up by [the manager] Jock Stein and [the chief scout] John Higgins. He was entrusted to set up the system which would help the under-16s on to the next step of the ladder.


“That system has paid off with one of those raw recruits becoming the man in charge of the club.”


Four years earlier the publication offered congratulations to Mr Cairney on his “20th year on the celtic staff”.

Clearly fake news as they’re a separate entity.

Agree, one active case to be heard around the 30th of October. 

Fare play to the Scottish Times on reporting this and dicusting the rest of SMSM continue to not report on the biggest scandle in Scotland. 

Mark Daley seems to have now joined the ranks of silence...feel for the Gray family and Gordon Woods as well as all the survivors they still have a big fight on their hand to get justice for what they have gone through.

He found one article in the club newspaper that blew separate entity out the water .

Cairney stated before it was him that brought TB to the cbc and he was his confidant/mentor in other words...

Did TB panic when the allagations first came out about Cairney that he could be exposed as a victim/abuser and or both and that's what prompted him to state everyone at cfc was behind to him to a man.

When he is found guilty for a second time he should be given life. He know doubt will be given a paltry sentence by a judge of the same religious persuasion.

Summing up, he dedicated his life to ra cellic, a good man with some minor faults, considering his age  I don't believe  a custodial sentence would serve or reflect our magnificent and magnanimous justice system, after all he has only been out a couple of weeks and that's not really fair.

Having read the outstanding letters of support from members of the clergy and a Football club who at this time want to remain anonymous the sentence I will pass down is a period of one years probation. 

The defendant is free to go and I wont be putting any conditions on his sentence. 

Kick them  Out.

Is it just me hoping it was a Rangers fan who tattooed this and added the asterisk and the mong doesn't know what it means? It's a wee star mate aye, gives the illusion of the 2020 shining.

Nah, a Rangers fan wouldn't go near this cunt
