Quick read of the replies is as expected.
What about Rangers?? Shameful disgusting scum
Out next week apparently
Don't think there will be much to this then, nowhere near enough time to investigate what went on there.
The SFA at the time of Torbett and Cairney especially was Kelly and McGinn.Going by his ‘previous’ the cynic in me says whitewash. I foresee the SFA getting the blame.
It's been months in the making surely?
Not sure to be honest, but I'm sure it was only a week or two ago that Thomson was trying to engage with certain people connected with Rangers.
Exactly right. This is not an issue where it should be some sort of tit for tat / whataboutery thing. If we have done something wrong somewhere along the way then we need to hold our hands up and learn any lessons there are to learn to ensure that there is never a repeat. As it happens, all I have ever heard of our involvement with Neeley or whatever he was called is that we did exactly what we should have done, including reporting him to the police. But if there are things we should have done better then so be it, let's learn the lessons.If Rangers, Hibs, Hearts are involved so be it. Get an open investigation going outside Scotland government control. I have no faith in our justice minister. Think of the victims.
Is how you react to such things. Inviting the paedophiles back into employment to re abuse is the story that needs told.
I was a journalist for over three decades and this stinks to high heaven for me.
I really hope my senses are wrong for the sake of those victims who have cooperated with C4.
Thompson is clearly a Celtic fan with connections given his past reporting.
Certainly I recall that some senior C4 figures are also Celtic fans.
I fully expect Celtic to have had copious input into this ‘expose’ and that is why they are not screaming to the usual suspects.
My senses say that if they had not cooperated and had their say, then they would already be stories all over the Scottish press saying that they have been unfairly treated.
I also have no doubt they would have issued injunctions and leaked the details to their friends in the Scottish media.
However, it is possible that they know they can’t do anything about it and are just waiting for the smelly stuff to hit the fan.

Any idea who he was talking to ?
Yes off that there is no doubt my friend ,I'd also add senior politicians ,high profile media figures , high up members of the press and probably the RC church . In my view the reason its been covered up so well .If the truth fully comes out it would blow this country apartHopefully finally, after decades. Scotlands biggest kept open secret is told to the world.
Personally think Celtic directors were involved.
Possibly. But at the end of the day he’s a journalist and this story (I hate to refer to it in sensationalist terms but that’s journalism) is far bigger than a 10 year legal debate about EBTs being taxable or non-taxable.

Appropriate banner there btw.
“CFC. FAMOUS FOR YOUR NOISE. INFAMOUS FOR YOUR SILENCE”
You’re correct but, should we not welcome it?The “journalist” investigating this means that our name will be mentioned a few times during this documentary.
There’s no doubt this scumbag will shoehorn us into this investigation.
