Never thought you would stoop so low, you mate are a ****ing **** A guy who has nothing to do with either here or SPN so why the **** are you posting his contact details?
WTF do you mean by that? I have never hide that I use FF I even post as my own user name Their is no point in making up a new name
Mick/Muir/Somecunt... Shut this thread down - it ran it's ****in course! This sites getting ruined with pish like this.
No let Dev answer the question I asked him!! I cant believe I was trying to be a neutral on this thread to get dragged in by Dev hatred for anything Rangers you Dev are a bitter old man, who cant just let sleeping dogs lie!!
**** that, just ban the bigots. Banter is all fine and well but these ****s, and they know who they are, should just **** off to ****e like Follow Follow and CQN to have a bigoted love-in with their own fans. I'm jacking this place in if it's just going to be fannies posting Old Firm ****e day after day. Not interested in it in the slightest. It's the pathetic ramblings of the vacuous and the inexpressive. They have nothing going for them apart from their petty and pedantic football grievances.
Aw don't jack it in Venom gonny no? You'd be such a dreadful loss I'm not sure the board could ever recover. Seriously. I like you here, we all do, every forum needs a wee fanny to rip the piss out of and you're het. TIG
Another bad example, It is not our Church ministers that is being investigated for child abuse or our pope that actually new child abuse was going on but did **** all about it

You are wrong in so many ways I will not even try to correct you, your laghable regurgitated ramblings have me rubbing my eyes in disbelief at everything you spurt out. I'mt tired of this thread as many other are, to the ones who want to carry on about Jock Stein go for it as you would on FF or similar, i'll have a good laugh at your expense.
So tired yet only moments later had to make yet another contribution. You started the thread in the first place and made the biggest contribution to it. I attempted to draw a line under it earlier on this afternoon when I posted the pic of the wee guy with the whiskey and cigar.....well I thought it was funny. But I'm in now and ****ed if I'm letting go. You're good at pushing for answers when it suits you but I'm still awaiting an answer to one I asked earlier....... Why did Jock Stein appoint the child abuser Frank Cairney?
You never asked that and i'm not even going to try and answer because "I don't know" and I really don't care. You asked several questions which I answered, no one has any answers to my questions which is as I suspected. I feel the point has been more than proven, people suspect Jock knew, let them suspect and speculate all they want and do all the digging they want, they diminish only themselves by their actions to prove something that not many care about.
Why - is it a secret or something..? you seem to know, so why not just tell me..? Maybe Jock Stein's son played for the CBC after Torbett was booted out..? Maybe Jock Stein never let his son go on trips or visit Torbett in his home, therefore Torbett never had the opportunity to try to abuse Jock Stein's son..? Maybe Torbett was smart enough not to try anything with Jock Stein's son because to do so would put himself at too great a risk of exposure..?
But you yourself claimed he probably suspected. And who did he take these suspicions up with, Torbett, the Board, the Police......WHO????? No, he appointed Fank Cairney as a trusted lieutenant and he turned out to be yet another child abuser.
As already pointed out to you, how would the victims know that Jock Stein knew..? There is plenty of documented evidence that people who groom children are very clever and manipulative and often convince their victims that it should be kept a secret and even that it is the victims fault. It would be a very unsuccessful *****phile who got caught at the first hurdle - the victim's parents.. But I guess you already know all that but are just being obtuse. I've yet to hear a reason why Birt should be regarded as an unreliable witness whilst a *****phile and his 2 mates are somehow more trustworthy - only in the land of Timmy eh..? Here's a question for you - Why would Birt say that Jock Stein personally threw Torbett out of Parkhead if Jock Stein didn't tell him that..? WHY..??
I'll answer this, as it seems to have been asked a few times by other posters too. I haven't seen any suggestion by Rangers supporters or anyone else that Jock Stein knew about the abuse and either turned a blind eye to it or let it carry on. I think as soon as he found out about it he booted Torbett out the door. I don't think there's any question of that. The point is, you don't just boot a ***** out the door. You call the Police and have him arrested, investigated and - if there is enough evidence - charged and hopefully convicted. What you don't do is just send him away with a flea in his ear FFS..
Im trying to look at this in both angles, Is it fact BJ kicked Torbett out the door or is it just 'hearsay'? If fact could their be another reason for it?
A couple of things: This bigot handle is being thrown about a bit so I'd just like to clarify - are you saying singing BJK makes one a bigot..?? Unless someone is standing beside you with a gun to your head you don't have to read anything you don't want to. You CHOOSE to read the 'pish' others apparently post - so what exactly does that say about you..? Couldn't you just invest in a cilice if you deliberately want to inflict pain on yourself..?
Look, simply put this was a different time and things were different back then,I certainly did not hear the word *****phile being in common usage, anyone of my age will confirm that. In my local baths there was a guy called Les who friends warned me to avoid, so I did. he was overly "Pally" with some young lads. We did not know he was a *****phile, hardly anyone knew what that meant. As far as me and my pals were concerned he was a "Bender" in that he liked boys and/or men, we did not know for sure but we suspected he was an abuser. When my sister was abused in about 1972 it was by the father of one of her pals. No one went to the Police but my dad knocked seven bells out of him. If he abused other girls , were we at fault for not reporting it? It would have been the word of a child against that of an adult. Had Jock Stein "known" he would have probably still done the same thing and booted Torbett out of CBC beacuse you simply cannot expect people in a different age to attach the same laws and systems which are commonplace now. Jock Stein did what everyone else would have done at that time that's the reason we have so many child abuse cases coming to court now that happened in the 50s, 60s and 70s it is because people simply did not go to the police to report horrible acts such as Torbett committed, there was a conspiracy of silence in every place it happened. People of the 21st century are exposed to all sorts of experiences and knowledge about child abusers, in the media an elsewhere, we have a clear understanding of the way there reprobates operate, Jock Stein did not. What he knew about child abuse you could probably have written on the back of a stamp, same as any man of his years.
That's correct as far as I know.. The only variation I have ever heard apart from 'Big Jock Knew' is "and Celtic too" as a last line.
