    http://www.thefreelibrary.com/BOYS ...Club axes contract with Torbett...-a094570229



    So not only did Celtic Directors turn a blind eye to what was going on, they actually continued to do business with the convicted paedophile even after he was imprisoned !

    What kind of people are they ?

    Has anyone at Celtic FC ever apologised for this ?

    Wow, I'm genuinely astonished by this 12 year old news. This makes me very, very angry.

    Thanks for bringing this to my attention rocket and please keep us up to date with more relevations of sinister paedophile goings-on over at Bheast HQ. <ok>

    So even after Big Jock put his boot up his arse and kicked him out the door the paedophoile managed to weedle his way back into Celtic and made Kevin Kelly a Director of the Trophy Centre.

    Kelly remained a Director even after Torbett was sent to prison.

    Torbett's victims obviously meant absolutely nothing to him or Celtic.

    To be fair we got a good discount on the trophies and it's not as if any of them were large enough for Torbett to hide in and post himself to Celtic.

    We're Rangers, The Rangers, The Teddy Bears, The Light Blues, The Gers - what's your point caller ?

    I've heard Celtic being referred to as Celtic, The Celtic, The Hoops, The Bhoys and Ra Sellik.

    All unofficial names though, we are - and have always been - Glasgow Celtic. Rangers have now been officially "Rangers Football Club" and "The Rangers Football Club".

    They did not add the supplementary "The" for naught. It cost them £134m
