Many a true word spoken in jest. Why did they go to the US and a lot of other places - picking up donations for their terrorist pals? The mind boggles - who thinks it a good idea going to a refugee camp with no doubt 100s and 100s of vulnerable scared children living there - yes a paedophile and his pals.Probably ran guns to them.
And what "separate entity" little boys club could afford a tour to a place like that without funding from the bigger "entirely separate entity?Who sends a football team on a tour of the famous middle eastern footballing hotbed of .....Palestine ????
Exactly mate. Must have sold some amount of fitba cards and raffle tickets to fund thatAnd what "separate entity" little boys club could afford a tour to a place like that without funding from the bigger "entirely separate entity?
They're not, that was almost thirty years ago.Why are our politicians wasting time and energy on that?
I understood that when I posted. My post may be poorly worded so as not to indicate the tense, but the point still stands. Politicians wasteD time on that.They're not, that was almost thirty years ago.
He pops his head up above the parapet now and again when it comes to subjects that really he shouldn’t be getting into when he’s been inundated with requests for answers as to why he’s not conversing with victims of child abuse at the celtic football and athletic company, as they were called back then of course. It’s an absolute scandal as to why he hasn’t sat down with anyone related to this crisis. Yet he has the gall to talk about having to “scratch his head” at statues that have been erected in this city for very many years?
This man is unfit for office. He needs to resign at once.

It's ok fellow bear I knew it wasn't but I had to get the line in at the start!In jest?
And we scratch our heads wondering why you’ve done nothing for the victims and families that suffered at the hands of you’re beloved club.
Does anyone if tv documentary that is being made will broadcast throughout the U.K. or on local network like Stv, better that everybody can see the repulsive goings on.
He seems to be doing a lot of statue talk today. I doubt he’ll mention the one that should be pulled down immediately.
A researcher was contacted and the reply was things were on hold due to the pandemic. This was around 2 months ago.Does anyone if tv documentary that is being made will broadcast throughout the U.K. or on local network like Stv, better that everybody can see the repulsive goings on.
The last thing you need is the programme being aired any time soon. Theres too much going on in the world at the moment.A researcher was contacted and the reply was things were on hold due to the pandemic. This was around 2 months ago.
Originally we were told it was 3 one hour programmes and Celtic will feature heavily. Another thing to remember is there have been more developments in the past year or so and there will probably be more to come, so it may not be complete. The documentary maker is Dan Gordon who also covered the hillsborough disaster.

Neither him or his Boss have replied to any of the victims or victims families.Does this weapon just ignore all questions relating to the CFC/CBC systemic abuse being perpetrated over decades? Completely unacceptable for a Justice Minister that is meant to seek justice for all.
The sleazy bastard's not capable of protecting children. It's reprehensible, he needs to be exposed and he needs to be hunted out of office.
I believe they had many an overnight away trips, USA, Spain etc
It's disgraceful. They need to be held to account. It appears the lads on here and a few victims are doing a great job of keeping this in the spotlight, in their quest for justice.Neither him or his Boss have replied to any of the victims or victims families.
Shame on them
Can’t wait to see this, an expose by a proper journalist, the Peter Taylor documentaries on atrocities in NI done more to highlight the shocking IRA murders or the Shankhill Butchers for that matter than the courts did.A researcher was contacted and the reply was things were on hold due to the pandemic.

How many African tribal chiefs or descendants have accepted responsibility for the millions of tribes people they sold to European and American slave traders?This was an unthinkable business but was facilitated at the source by unscrupulous Chief’s who avoid international scrutiny.This useless Yusuf wants to re-write history I wonder why, many unsavoury events not to his liking? An absolute example of incompetence personified.
If Humza changed his surname to Useless and removed himself that would be a real and justified change for the better.
I don’t know how they’ve got the cheek still to be pushing this “separate entity” shite.When he’s talking about the under 16s he specifically mentions 2 Celtic signings having a good game. (John Thompson & Tony Shepherd) Does this mean Celtic loaned players to the boys club?
John Thompson was also abused by Frank Cairney in a hotel in Aviemore.
Wow. First I've heard of this BB.
More to come.Its beyond depressing really.
So the ringleader of Scotland’s biggest paedophile ring has undeniable links to Celtic. Unbelievable stuff but only the tip of the iceberg.Secretary at east coast Celtic feeder club was child abuser — The Times and The Sunday Times

Celtic FC created and funded a second feeder club which became embroiled in its own child abuse scandal, The Times can reveal.
The Parkhead club has repeatedly distanced itself from systemic abuse at Celtic Boys Club in which four members, including the founder, Jim Torbett, were convicted of molesting dozens of children over four decades.
Now evidence has emerged that Celtic FC was behind the launch of a second youth feeder club in Edinburgh, called Celtic East Youth Club.
In 1997 Neil Strachan, the secretary of Celtic East, was jailed for sexually assaulting a young boy and gained further notoriety when he was exposed as the ringleader of Scotland’s worst organised abuse network.
Celtic FC has always denied any formal connection with the Edinburgh club, which no longer exists, when Strachan was convicted.
However, official documents show that it oversaw the launch and provided money as well as coaching staff.
The creation of the east coast feeder side was announced in the Celtic View, the club magazine, in May 1989. It confirmed that the venture was being overseen by Benny Rooney, a youth development officer with Celtic FC.
“Celtic are currently in the process of setting up a Celtic Boys Club based in Edinburgh which will cater for all east coast youngsters,” it said.
“The new club will be known as the Celtic East Youth Club. The boys club will be run along the same lines as their excellent counterpart in the west run by Frank Cairney, Jim Torbett and their men.” It adds: “Celtic would help out with the initial costs and Benny himself will be helping out with coaching at the beginning.”
A report on the club’s first game was featured in a Celtic FC matchday programme three months later.
Strachan became a long-serving club official and referee despite being convicted of an indecent assault on a child in 1985, when he was 17. In 1997 he resigned from Celtic East after he was convicted of sexually assaulting a boy and sentenced to three years in jail.
After his release Strachan tried to rape an 18-month-old boy on Hogmanay 2005 and took a photograph of the incident.
Strachan, now 52, was at the heart of an organised abuse network, photographing his attacks and trading them with others. Detectives recovered 7,400 images and a succession of emails which were so graphic that experienced investigators were offered counselling.
Eight men were convicted in 2009 for their part in what police described as the “largest paedophile network dismantled in Scotland”.
They included Strachan’s co-conspirator James Rennie, now 49, who was chief executive of the charity LGBT Youth Scotland and used the name “kp[kid porn]lover99”. Both men are serving life sentences.
Torbett is two years into a six-year sentence for abusing boys between 1986 and 1994, having also been jailed in 1998 for molesting players at the feeder club between 1967 and 1974.
While expressing sympathy for his victims, Celtic has sought to distance itself from Torbett’s crimes, insisting the boys’ club was an “entirely separate organisation”. The club did not respond to a request for comment yesterday.
