some of the unwashed have said on one of their forums that the Adidas deal is close to being complete and will be announced at end of year...seems strange Adidas would continue down the road of sponsoring them.I got the same one today as well Tommy. It seems like we'll all get similar replies.
They say they're not currently a partner, but that doesn't matter. Whether it's Adidas, or any other possible associate in the future, it has to make them think twice about dealing with the scum and that's a result. It tarnishes their name, as it obviously should and everyone should know what's taken place in that vile club.
Are you sure this is factually correct? They have been covering up for fifty years but I have never heard that the abuse went on for fifty years. I may be wrong but you have to beware of your wording or you may find yourself in trouble.many thanks for your input QC,currently firing out the following emails ,headed "sex abuse scandal in scottish psort - celtic fc"
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,
As you may or not be aware,there is a sporting scandal ,the likes of which has never been seen in the world of sport currently under scrutiny in Scotland at present,via television and some media outlets.
This sporting scandal involves Glasgow Celtic F.C and it’s 50 plus years,yes 50 plus years of historic child abuse crimes committed against its youth players in its Celtic boys club,some of which crimes,took place on American soil and were covered up at the time by employees and coaches at the time and since.
Now,your company is either involved directly or indirectly in the sponsorship or support of this football club by way of your product or brand and as such,I find it disgusting to say the least,that you and your company,would want to be associated with any sex abuse scandal or tainted by the brush of Glasgow Celtic F.C ,it can only be damaging for your company brand to be involved with such an institution that has committed these heinous crimes against minors for over 50 years that were then covered up by corrupt officials within the club and possibly government officials.
We will only find out the true facts,as and when a full and independent public inquiry into this scandal takes place,an inquiry,which government MP’s and MSP’s are now calling for in Scotlands parliament and throughout Westminster.
As stated in the national press and television here in scotland,there has been 6 criminal convictions to date,with 4 currently in jail for child abuse crimes committed,these being Jim Torbett,JamesMc Cafferty,Frank Cairney and Gerald King,who have recently been convicted and sentenced to a number of years in jail ( one of whom,has been jailed twice now,so is a repeat offender,who was re-employed by the club after release from jail to go on and commit more sexual abuse of minors).One of the other disgusting paedophiles employed by the football club,was the club photographer Hugh Birt,who was caught with a cupboard full of over 250 black and white images of naked young boys ,this cupboard,was located within the stadium.
Surprisingly,the Scottish government has been silent so far on all calls from MSP’s for a public inquiry into this historic child abuse,particularly from the governments leader Nicola Sturgeon and her justice secretary Humza Yousaf but i’m sure the day of them calling for an open and transparent public inquiry will come,as the victims,of which there are hundreds seek justice via the courts,with cases being collated and lodged in courts each day and now with many opposition MP’s and MSP’s demanding action ,by way of a public inquiry into this scandal.
I’m sure if you had or have children and your child was systematically abused,you would want justice first of all and then put a safe distance between the abuser and your family,the abuser in this case being the above parties and your company,much in the same way Pepsi dropped Michael Jackson,when he was simarlarly accused of paedophilia,only this is on a far greater scale,hundreds of young children allegedly sexually abused or raped by club employees for over 50 years....doesn’t even begin to compute.
Does your company policy seek to support such paedophilia or organisations in which it allows it to happen and then cover it up for 50 years,when all the evidence is there online in media outlets for the world to see,all you have to do is google search the names and the proof is there.
With more and more revelations of child abuse reaching the media on an almost daily basis,does your company still wish to be involved with and indeed support a criminal organisation such as this?
I would urge you to take on board what has been said and do your own research into the disgusting and depraved child abuse,that has occurred at Glasgow Celtic F.C over the past 50 plus years and I would welcome your comments on whether your company will continue to support and sponsor a club tainted by an alleged operational paedophile ring from within its workings ,which in turn will influence my decision and many others on whether to continue buying your products.
We will not give up on the victims of this world sporting sex abuse scandal and we will continue to highlight it in the media and bring attention around the globe to this disgusting club and it’s disgusting and depraved history and we will bring attention to those connected to it in any way,shape or form in way of support or sponsorship as being supportive of paedophilia .
I await your reply.
Yours sincerely

Hi Mark
Can you please explain why your P.R. company are involved with a toxic club that have facilitated the cover up of an historic,systematic, paedophile ring which has been operating at Celtic F.C. for over 4 decades?
Where do you begin to try and spin defence of this organisation?Why would even try?
I would also suggest that there is a conflict of interest due to your relationship with Lorraine Herbison from Radio Clyde Bauer Group, as they refuse to discuss this gargantuan scandal, the worst to my knowledge in sporting history, that in itself is a disgrace.
I would also suggest that you are happy to condone the actions of a club complicit in the cover up of abominable behaviour by the criminally convicted beasts, who operated at that rancid club, and thereby that makes you and your P.R. company also complicit as you are trying to deflect and deny,against the fight for justice, compensation and apology for the poor victims.
The walls are closing in Mark , think how your company profile will look following the end result, it could be Armageddon for Holicom too?
Look forward to your reply
R.K.

Try marc.horne@thetimes.co.ukWell done my friend.
Have you ( OR ANYBODY ELSE ) managed to get The Times guy Marc Horne’s email address BN ?
I want to push him on the possible LSE issue when I get back from holiday mate.
He’s highlighted in that last article about the Inquiry so it leads nicely into that question to him I think.
Best, GY
I sent emails this morning at 3am to the following;
The observer, 39 Seeley Avenue, Kearny,

Bob Pezzolla, General manager

Kevin Canessa, editorial and website
Kc@theobserver.com
Kearny is obviously the place where CBC were staying in 1991. No email has pinged back so I’m guessing the address is still live. It may lead somewhere or not. But it’s another avenue to go down.
If you don’t mind me asking. Where did you find this?
Try marc.horne@thetimes.co.ukI can't find his email address unfortunately - his portfolio of work is at the link below, but no email address (although it looks like if you join this site you may be able to contact him through it):
https://muckrack.com/marc-horne
Tried The Times website and it says for editorial inquiries to email feedback@thetimes.co.uk - could well be worth emailing there asking for Marc Horne's details, or how to pass information to him if they are unable to give out his details.
Absolutely love seeing Bears all working together,a small number but everyone chips in with posts and idea’s,brilliant!!
Imagine we got organised as a support!!

Just read that email again from @BN Lisa@Observer..fûcking hell!!
“Once we got ok from chief we will start coverage”
Awesome!
Excelent work. I reached out to her and offered up my services if she wanted an American point of contact. I sent her some Times articles.
Also, she said the police are investigating. The crime happen back in 1991 and because they did not have case tracking it slipped through the cracks. She is letting them investigate before she reports.
She's asked for evidence on frank kearneys new jersey sex abuse...i forwarded the wolf in sheeps clothing article and the airport cover up pact article.
She’s already got the airport info. One of the first emails I sentIts Frank Cairney, mate. CBC were playing a tournament in Kearny, New Jersey, at the time.
Just received this email from smerixa...can any bears help with this?
Our police are doing there best to find information dating back to 1991, unfortunately back in the day we didn’t have computers so they are doing search by paper trail. Any police reports that you can get would help as well, the articles are one thing but I prefer documentation for verification.
I might be wrong Tommy but I don’t think it was reported back in 1991. I’m sure the airport article said if the American police got involved the boy would be taken into care and they got in touch with Celtic to tell them what to do. Celtic then organised flights home promising the parents it would be dealt with.
