Rangers v Celtic

Aye, that's my agenda here, to "bury the story". ffs catch a grip.

 

^^^^ beelin'

 

"Celtic FC investigated and cleared Celtic Boys’ Club “leaders” of wrongdoing after complaints in the 80s,"

"The club’s probe described abuse claims as “scurrilous”"

 

So what is the agenda? Serious question. Why don't you think a Scottish football forum should discuss the biggest thing happenening in Scottish football?

 

"The revelation of the club’s 80s investigation appears to be at odds with Celtic FC’s present stance that the boys’ club is a totally separate organisation, and that it was first made aware of allegations of improper behaviour in the mid-90s."

Oh dear...

 

Is it really the "biggest thing" happening in Scottish Football? I doubt it.

It's not a football matter at all, this is a societal issue, an abhorrent abuse of power by people in positions of trust which has been repeated up and down the country as well as all over the world, from the various churches to boy scouts and boys brigade, care homes and plenty of other establishments.

I don't have an issue with Celtic taking part in an investigation, I welcome it but by **** I'm smart enough to realise that no investigation and no result from any inquiry will satisfy the rubber-neckers who only care about one thing, and that's not the welfare of the victims. People on here who want to discuss every detail of this case are ONLY interested because Celtic are involved.

 

Of course it is. The league finishes this weekend. Title is wrapped up. There's a cup final that has an obvious outcome and Steve Clarke may get the Scotland job. That's it. Then you have one of the countries biggest clubs/institutions being reported to have been involved in a historic peadophile ring that went on for decade(s). It's most definitely the biggest story. To pretend otherwise is absurd. And no...I want to discuss it because Its ****ing disgusting what happened and the whole separate entity thing is almost as bad. I couldn't give a **** if it's Celtic, Rangers or Elgin City. As much as this may surprise you but Celtic mean **** all to me other than a team in Scottish football.

 

I’m away to read the tag novel

 

So CBC provided legal evidence that Celtic were the parent company and statements of Celtics accounts when they registered as a branch of Celtic?

This should be easy to find.

This is the head shot.

Why has noone seen it?

Again...you're making things up. I never said the were a parent company. I said they were a branch of Celtic.

 

There's a lot happening at Celtic which is of far more interest to me than "potential" blame being apportioned in a child abuse scandal. A new manager, new signings a treble to wrap up. Sorry, but that's of far greater import to me than maybes and ifs.

 

Same badge
Same kit
Same training facilities
Same coaches
Same kitmen
Money from one helped fund the other
One has authority over the other
One makes decisions about the other

Totally separate though.

 

I didn't say to you. I said to Scottish football.

 

In your opinion.

 

A pretty educated guess. We could check the papers etc and see what the main headlines are.

 

What do you make of this, Mindoid?

Not a separate entity at all...

 

To be a branch you require a parent company to be a branch of.

Ffs

 

We could do but i doubt many of the broadsheets have the story on the front page. The Sun, The Mirror, the Star, The Record perhaps, but then I don't read those, mind you I tend not to read the broadsheets either.

 

No you don't. You need to be linked, like CBC and CF club were by many many different things .
