    Kincardine barely able to contain his joy at the latest revelations here. 

    Wish he'd slime off to Follow Follow and stay there.

    Worth repeating that Rangers told a victim of child abuse to f**k off and take it up with the Liquidaters, and it was nothing to do with them, yet Kincardine is pretending to be concerned that Celtic haven't took responsibility!..just a vile creep who revels in child abuse.

    An absolutely tragic post from you.  

    What we learned from Monday's court verdict is that Celtic invited  a known child abuser back in to the club.  This is what makes it so damning .  I haven't a clue why you and others fail to acknowledge this.

    Just go away...back to Follow Follow and crack jokes about it.

    Fair enough regarding the rebrand.

    According to the BBC article, some of the Kelly family had shared business interests with Torbett?  

    I thought it was the correct response from Celtic tonight, the priority is supporting the victims and encouraging anymore to come forward and seek help and hopefully some sort of closure/steps to dealing with it.

    Statement from Celtic.

     

     

     

     

    FOLLOWING the conviction of Mr James Torbett at Glasgow Sheriff Court, Celtic Football Club wishes to express our deep regret that the incidents took place and sympathy for the victims who suffered abuse. We are grateful for the courage of those who have come forward to report abuse and to give evidence after such a long period of time. We have great respect for them and their families as they continue to cope with the distressing effects of the abuse they suffered.

    Allegations regarding abuse at Celtic Boys’ Club first emerged in the 1990s. Although Celtic Football Club is an entirely separate organisation, we have always taken these allegations extremely seriously because of our historic contacts with Celtic Boys’ Club. All investigations by the police and other inquiries were given our full support. We encouraged any individuals involved to report all information to the police so that matters could be investigated fully. Celtic Football Club continues to encourage any victim of abuse to report these crimes to the police.

    After the allegations became known in the 1990s, Celtic Football Club took steps to develop a new code of conduct and procedures to protect young people. Since then, Celtic Football Club has been at the leading edge of putting welfare and safeguarding protections in place for our young people. We were the first club in Scotland to appoint a safeguarding officer, developing policies for the protection of young people and monitoring and reviewing our procedures to ensure they continue to reflect best practice.

    The abuse of children is an issue affecting many areas of society, including a large number of football clubs, sports clubs, youth organisations, educational institutions and religious bodies across Britain. Celtic Football Club strongly believes that children and young people involved in football have the right to protection from all forms of harm and abuse and is committed to ensuring this and to promoting their wellbeing through continued cooperation with our children and young people, parents and carers and the relevant authorities.

    A friend of mine has sent me an "invite" to sign up to something called "Initiative Q". Seemingly the guys who started PayPal have now started this Bitcoin like payment method called "Q's". Signing up gets you some free Q's, which they say could end up at the prices Bitcoin reached. I have no idea about any of this stuff, but am I worth signing up to this bullshit for free just in case it takes off or is it in fact one huge scam that I'd be better off avoiding?

    Send me an invite.

    Margaret Hodge is despearate for Corbyn not to become MP.  A Labour MP who would far rather have a Tory in no 10.  Hopefully this is her last term in Parliament, though if she’s not selected I’m convinced she will stand in order to split the Labour vote.

     

    Too late, he's already an MP.

    They lost 6.5m (2017) So their losses have more than doubled, and thats before spending over 10m in transfer fees (signed more duds), and whatever else theyve spent on wages, loanees and paying off duds.

    But its fine. Europa league covers it (according to **** in my work).

    They're fucking honking, and they probably don't take into account last week's court defeat by Ashley, which obviously will have heavy financial costs.
