Would love to know who was doing the threatening. Internet hard man, pass the usernames on to admin to get them IP banned
and pass their IP onto me

And hopefully they won’t be financially poor afterwards and have a clean mind knowing the law eventually listened to their plight for justice.At the end of the day the poor victims will receive justice?
So anyone have any updates on this?
Leave religion out of it. It’ll just allow the bigot card to be played to deflect.Please God Let this be the start of their demise everyone of us needs to start expressing our revulsion of that club and their religion . The most corrupt organisation in the world is the Catholic Church
There will be one or two instances at other Clubs, unfortunately where there is access to children these animals will be there.Bet we get dragged into this!
Strengthens our hand to demand a full public inquiry. We shouldn't be frightened of the truth.Bet we get dragged into this!
Probably next week. Maybe the week after.Do we know when the supposed Channel 4 article is due to be shown?
Bet we get dragged into this!
I doubt very much their insurance will cover this. But they'll have some other way out of it. They've got friends in high placesDo you get an insurance policy that covers child abuse, re-employing a known child abuser and then using a convicted child abuser to supply the club with trinkets?

Don't think your gonna hear anything we don't already knowThe fact that it states scottish football lets you know we will come out of this looking bad.
A Holicomm driven production IMO.The fact that it states scottish football lets you know we will come out of this looking bad.

Do you think Brennan with Lawells permission is admitting Celtic's responsibility with this part?
'While these matters happened decades ago, Celtic are still Celtic, and have a corporate responsibility for all that went before. Fergus McCann first acknowledged what took place. He setup counselling facilities and instructed an independent investigation into the actions of the club under the old board. This happened 25 years ago. '
Is this true?
Did McCann commission an independent investigation?
If so who conducted the investigation?
Where is the final report? This should be made public.
edit: Have the SFA seen this report as part of their investigation? Have Police Scotland seen this report?
Hard to imagine MCann instructing an independent investigation. That's not the Celtic way.
Perhaps I'm being too sceptical as regards CQN but most likely I'm not. Regardless of my scepticism you are off course asking very relevant questions and ones that should be answered.I agree, but that's a quote from CQN, 15th February 2020.

I wholeheartedly agree. My own feeling is that they're about to go the offensive in order to change the narrative. Thompson getting involved is all part of this ploy. I hope I'm wrong and that he does come out with the real story and not some deflection crap.My gut feeling is this is just a blatant lie from CQN in an attempt to make it look like there is no cover up. However, sometimes things get revealed in error. If there was a genuinely independent investigation 25 years ago then there are a lot of questions that need answers.
This is so true, the more they try to drag us into it the nearer we get to a full public enquiry. We have nothing to hideStrengthens our hand to demand a full public inquiry. We shouldn't be frightened of the truth.
Thompson might be a scumbag but he's an investigative journalist first and last.I wholeheartedly agree. My own feeling is that they're about to go the offensive in order to change the narrative. Thompson getting involved is all part of this ploy. I hope I'm wrong and that he does come out with the real story and not some deflection crap.
For those who don’t know or have recently joined the thread, it’s no secret that Thompson solicitors are representing alleged victims of Neely and Dunn.
How many we do not know.

Was that before or after they re-employed Torbett?They might be getting mistaken with the inquiry done by McGinn and Kelly where they found no wrongdoing on the behalf of their backroom staff. A truly independent inquiry would have closed the pit and saved many kids years of torture.
You get the feeling that once someone is brave enough to speak up, then a chain reaction occurs.For those who don’t know who Andy Woodward is, he was a victim of Bennell.
Was mid 80s I believe which means both Torbett and Cairney were still at separateentity at that timeWas that before or after they re-employed Torbett?
The fact there was a Kelly involved doesn't fill me with confidence.

Scurrilous is a word that fits well when describing the board of that rancid club. In fact extend that to the toy town government of the country. They have still taken no responsibility. They know no shame and they show no sympathy, only contempt, for the people whose lives have been wrecked.In the 80s, 1986 I think, they had their famous whitewash where they claimed that the abuse claims were ‘scurrilous’.
Look how that turned out BB.

I sincerely hope that the victims but also the perpetrators and enablers will get what they deserve.
Abolutely agree Jacobite. It was THEIR word that they used to describe others as well.
As you say, and even if some of this filters onto our club via Neely, the abused & their families deserve true justice. That should always be the prime Hope & objective.
If the result means that certain organisations are seen by the world for what they really are then that will be something i will also rejoice at.
Indeed Grigo. First and foremost justice and meaningful compensation for all of the victims. Thereafter let retribution be dished out on a scale fitting these sickening crimes.
And the meeting held where Hugh Birt was called in and sacked by Kelly, McGinn, Torbet, and Cairney
