Abuse victim says torment carried on when he signed for Parkhead club

Sickening, one thing for certain is that afterthis whole investigation and enquiry, and coming out of these horrific trials is that this MUST never ever ever happen again.
Retrospective action, victim compensation absolutely. Religious groups, sporting groups held accountable. But the main thing from this despicable blight in Scottish society must not be allowed to happen ever again
 
I can’t get my head around how they are getting away with this, it’s a sad indictment of how powerful they are in Scottish society and how weak the law profession is regarding bringing them to justice.

Whit? They are being found guilty all over the place and a top lawyers in the early stages of compensation claims Throw in the Record running it on the front page I'd ask what more do you want.

This is the real deal.
 
Vile bhastards should be shut down and thrown out of football

Who would associate themselves with or even want to play for these horrible cunts

Agreed but let's start by closing down the epicentre of paedophilia in Scottish football, Celtic FC.
 
History has shown us time and time again that every time a new case surfaces or a new victim braves the press -the connections and the interlinking between each predator and the club are completely ignored.

Where are the journalists that are brave enough to join up all the stories and implicate those in charge at Celtc who covered up this tragic mess?

Nowhere.

Every court case that our tax issues were investigated had dozens of celtc bloggers in attendance at court listening to the judgements and recording the evidence and subsequently producing reems and reems of Timmy porn.

Where are the equivalent scrutineers in all of these disparate cases? Nowhere. Behind closed doors. Closed court. A plethora of interim injunctions effectively silencing any speculation and neutering the media.

Despite the separate reports on all the different cases in the news over the past several months - there remains no desire to produce any quality articles that focus a SPOTLIGHT on the horrendous scale of this scandal.

I'm surely not the only one that believes the narrative is being completely controlled (by that sordid entity from the east of the city) with the sole aim of avoiding what's always been required to expose the full scale of all these crimes - a full and independent investigation.

Until that happens (and it won't) justice will never come.
Just imagine if a couple of documentaries were to be aired exposing and peicing everything together...

And i mean everything!!
 
So much evidence now suggesting that there was a paedophile ring at that club yet it seems not just the SNP,but the whole of Scottish politics would rather it just went away.

What kind of feckin country are we living in ?
 
I've often wondered about Burns sticking up for Cairney...weird, disgusting even, a bizarre friendship, it made me think of William Gilbert and his 'admiration' for another paedophile, Jim Torbett.

William Gilbert is the guy who was with Torbett when Mark Daly tracked Torbett down to the US last year. You may remember a programme about it which was aired on BBC Scotland presented by Daly. It was later revealed Gilbert drove his car over the reporters foot.

Gilbert played for Celtic Boys Club and Torbett was a close family friend of his parents, mum Susan and police sergeant dad William. The boy spent many evenings with Torbett often staying overnight at his house.
William Snr strongly objected to this but couldn't seem to do anything about it.
Torbett would take the boy on holidays to Florida and weekends in London, the grief stricken dad could take no more and eventually took his own life over the relationship, his son was 19 by this time.

Burns friendship with the beastly Cairney doesn't sit right with me.
I knew big william gilbert and his wife' she was something else' if i remember right at the time of his first trial she was letting him stay in her house' if this is not a case of grooming with her son i dont know what is!!!
 
The current custodians have had a chance to show some morals. Accept past wrong doing and begin to right those wrongs. THAT is the right thing to do.

They have chosen to try to sweep it under the carpet. They have chosen to try to deflect it. They have chosen to escape justice.

They have chosen to be be complicit in child abuse.

The current custodians are no better than those who hid it originally.


Shameful

It would appear that leopards cannot change their spots. Cover up, deny, deflect, same shit from the same shit club just a different decade. We can only hope that justice is eventually done.

I'm hoping that the silence we are hearing and seeing from the MSM is because many of these cases are still sub judice. Following their conclusion there should be a shitstorm of publicity around this and the footballing authorities will surely, at that point, have to become involved.
 
Protected all over the place.

Cellic will be unscathed or down a bit financially in compo.

I've raged at this for years, posted loads of info and from the police, to legal system to government in Scotland, this is stitched up.

We are in a dark, sinister country.

It's like modern technology doesn't exist here and the story isn't getting out the country.

That's a lot of covering up and keeping things quiet.
 
Whit? They are being found guilty all over the place and a top lawyers in the early stages of compensation claims Throw in the Record running it on the front page I'd ask what more do you want.

This is the real deal.
Get where you are coming from but what’s the real impact so far?
One guy sent down isn’t it
 
They are Scotland’s shame.
Child abuse is a heinous crime. Covering up the crime is tantamount to being complicit in the abuse. The open secret at CFC is dark and sinister and needs to be investigated thoroughly.
 
I knew big william gilbert and his wife' she was something else' if i remember right at the time of his first trial she was letting him stay in her house' if this is not a case of grooming with her son i dont know what is!!!
Correct Alex. Torbett was found and arrested in said house, the boys mother claimed at the time "he's not that sort of person, he wouldn't do that." This was 2 years after her husband had topped himself because of what Torbett was up to with their son.

It's all so difficult to understand why some people turn a blind eye to things like that. A bit like how our Government are behaving if truth be told, maybe they think by doing nothing, sweeping it all under the carpet if you like, it will eventually blow over, a form of denial I reckon. It's just so wrong.
 
This is one of the reasons why nothing is being done,it's their way of controlling the agenda from their placemen in the media,politicians, S.F.A. and the Judiciary.
A disgusting topic to bring up in a discussion is the mantra from them.
No what is repugnant and disgraceful to any normal human being is the fact that they all knew and are as guilty as the perpetrators who carried out the horrific crimes against these unfortunate children for 30 years or more all because of their allegiance to a football team, a football team for %^*& sake.
Would they have let their children be put through these horrors just for the glory of playing for them,you would hope the answer would be no,but they were willing to allow this to happen to other people's weans trying to achieve their dreams of becoming a footballer and placed them into the hands of pederasts.
Silence is not the way to go.
Expose them,shout it from the rooftops,this is the biggest crime in the world of sport forget Penn state and others,these crimes were committed on their fictitious tours in Europe, U.S.A. and no doubt through out Britain and Ireland.
Was Bennel and his ilk involved, this is an avenue that needs investigated by the Police in every country they took these boys to.
Contact anyone and everyone who could bring this scandal into the light.No use relying on the S.F.A. as their past President knew all about it and is tied in with Torbetts trophy centre.
U.E.F.A. is the way to go.
Surely there are decent and right minded people out there who (are beyond their influence) will take up the fight for justice on behalf of the victims and ensure that the appropriate sanctions are taken against the individuals and the corporate entity that is Celtic.
Hopefully there is someone out there with the wherewithal to start a campaign like"Kick it Out" only change it to "Kick Them Out"
Are the authorities in this country afraid it could lead to civil unrest is that the reason for their silence.
At the end of this should it be shown that this was not just a local but international Paedophile ring the only answer is to revoke their football licence in the name of Sporting Morality.
 
some of the replies on that Twitter feed .we actually are brought into this .
That mob will deflect and deny and pass the buck on if they can get away with it . They are morally deficient and should be brought to justice as soon as possible as they are going to blacken the name of this Country and the name of Scottish Football unless they own up to their despicable acts of looking away and ignoring what was happening to innocent kids all for the sake of saving the " good name of the Club " . The place should be shut down completely for the sake of the victims and to save the Good Name of Scottish Football and compensate the victims for ruining their lives while they still have a chance to enjoy what's left of their lives and help them to try and forget what they suffered at the hands of those despicable paedophiles while those in charge could have stopped it happening with just a phone call and decided to look away . CLOSE THE DEN OF INIQUITY DOWN !!!
 
Is it possible that the known abusers at celtic were foot soldiers and doing the work for their seniors? If so why no victims coming forward to expose the next tier?
 
Get where you are coming from but what’s the real impact so far?

It's a long road.

Everyone knows the Scottish MSM are Celtic friendly. Today's front page in the Record shows that this cannot be ignored. I'd also reckon that Daly's putting a doc together. Patience.
 
Subhuman filth.

It highlights how indoctrinated the hordes are when something as serious as this can be simply ignored.
 
It's really not my friend.

The mountains and mountains of evidence has been destroyed over the past 30 years.

The victims are too scared of the abuse they will be subjected to if they speak up.

Families have been paid hush money.

The delays in bringing this paedophile ring to justice meant that witnesses and victims have been effectively gagged.

The overriding control that CFC have over the media and the judiciary has been set up over the past 4 decades to ensure the narrative is always controlled.

Rangers Supporters are not organised the way the celtc darkweb is. We don't hate enough to obsess and create award winning blogs that detail the crimes. We moan and suggest on FF. We echo each other but we are powerless.

The celtc propaganda machine is being controlled by the man that's running the SFA. Digest that for one moment .... the media are being influenced by Shifty McGifty who is employed by Dermot Desmond and is in charge of the SFA.

Justice is not coming. They've played the long game and will deflect every ounce of blame away from their beloved sewer of a club.
Karma ALWAYS comes around in the end they will reap what the sow it wont stay locked away forever secrets and lies always come out aswell.
 
Should someone not be raising this with the SFA compliance officer. One way into getting a response from the SFA.
 
Jack McGinn and Kevin Kelly should be under arrest, along with everyone else who turned a blind eye. Celtic should be stripped of all honours won during the period of this cover up.

could really do with the english press picking up on these stories and blowing the lid of it...the silence in this country is disturbing ...

It's more than disturbing, when you look at all the connections, Neil Strachan secretary of the boys club in Edinburgh, part of the worst peadophile ring uncovered in the UK, Torbett, Cairney, both active for decades at the Club itself, King again pictured at the Club as well. Cullen caught with photographs of young boys on the club premises, but for me the murder of the young boy Laurence Haggert should be looked at again. When you read the circumstances around that boys murder and the connection Jim McCafferty had to the family you can't help but feel that something very sinister has gone on.
