    Celtic should be stripped of all titles won during the period of this shameful cover up.

    Directors involved in the cover up should face criminal charges.

    Couldn't care less about their titles, but criminal charges against those involved in a cover up, absolutely yes.

    I want them stripped and shamed for all the world to see just what a horrible club they truly are.

    I want to see the directors and anyone else involved in the cover up sent to jail.

    No ' may have ' about it.

    He knew, but decided to protect the name of Celtic instead of protecting the kids.

    I'll answer for you...

    Once when there was talk about a posthumous knighthood for Stein

    Secondly when Celtic fans where advocating rangers being stripped titles fir using ebts

    Is it lonely on that pedestal?

    It truly beggars belief that a sizable and unfortunate section of the Rangers support have come up with a regular terracing song about a child sex abuse case. Today at Falkirk, where Rangers are due to play, will doubtless be the latest Scottish ground to be polluted with this dirge.

    Some of you may be aware by now of this excruciating embarrassment for Rangers known as the &#8220;Big Jock Knew&#8221; campaign (henceforth BJK). The chant, which has been fomented among the usual victims on a fans&#8217; website and by certain Rangers supporters groups leaders, refers to a Celtic Boys Club controversy of more than 30 years ago.

    The episode shocked Jock Stein, then the Celtic manager, when he was informed about it. Yet this Rangers song, as factually flawed and repellent as it is, tries to infer that Stein either condoned or attempted to cover-up the incident, which is nonsense.

    I have to admit I never thought I&#8217;d ever see the day when Scottish football supporters sang a song about a child sex abuse case, yet Rangers have duly delivered. Even more amazing and shocking is Rangers FC&#8217;s ongoing silence on the matter, as this cretinous chant builds up its head of steam among supporters.

    In the Scottish media we have tried to help Rangers by not quoting the subject in our pages, giving the club the chance for once to be proactive rather than reactive to misconduct among their less-fortunate followers. But those days of our silence on BJK are drawing to a close for one good reason &#8211; the longer this deafening silence from Ibrox about it prevails, the more decent people are starting to agitate for Rangers to actually do something about it.

    Gordon Smith, the SFA chief executive, had the guts and the moral fibre to refer to BJK as &#8220;morally repugnant&#8221;. Yet what have Rangers got to say about it? Does no one at the club actually possess the bottle to stand up and condemn it?

    BJK is now a ticking time-bomb for Rangers. It is The Billy Boys all over again and I am frankly amazed that the club hasn&#8217;t learnt lessons from their recent past and their prosecution by Uefa. Unless Rangers do something and act strongly, this proud but benighted club is once more going to be stung.

    I never knew anything about a knighthood till I read it on here, so you're wrong.

    I look at Penn State and how they were treated.

    I want the same for Celtic.

    By refusing to report it to the appropriate authorities Jock Stein was complicit in the cover-up of child abuse.

    I would be hunted down and my life wouldn't be worth living.

    Probably the same reason no one from the media will go anywhere near it <ok>
