    sh - I never doubted that for one minute...and you must surely know that? Hope you had a good Christmas - and have an even better New Year (which hopefully will get off to a fantastic start from Wednesday!)

    I think the only one making a fool of himself is you Harry. You claimed to have been the prime mover behind a book yet you don't even know the title of said book?

    A book from 15 years ago I said Celtic paranoid instead of Celtic paranoia , hardly a crime is it , I gave you the correct author within 20 mins of post two decent posters had a photo of the book up

    I never said it was a crime Harry, I simply asked you what the title of the book was, you could'nt recall it because it was from 15 years ago but you can remember penalties and throw in that Celtic should have got 40 years ago.

    I agree that there was a conspiracy against Celtic years ago , i simply don't think the actions of Refs in the 60s and 70s would be tolerated by the SFA nowadays. I see bad decisions all the time against Celtic and good ones for Rangers but that's just because I'm seeing it from a Celtic fans' point of view. In other words I know i'm biased, so I try to look at incidents objectively and I don't see them as part of some grand scheme to undermine Celtic.

    Campbell seems to agree with me in that book.

    [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]If Campbell believes that the club is no longer the victim of religious bigotry emanating from officialdom then in the first half of the book he presents an extremely convincing case that it has been in the past and that consequently it is understandable that many supporters have a deep-rooted mistrust of, for example, the SFA. Of course religious bigotry directed against Catholics generally (as opposed to the largely Catholic-supported Celtic specifically) has long had an ignoble tradition in Scotland - and as Campbell illustrates, not just in the West Central belt - which still exists.

    Tom is a pure gentleman and likes to sit on the fence despite writing a few good Celtic books
