Celtic / Manchester united ?

I've never heard of these allegations so if you dont have anything to backup these twisted stories, other than your own word, then I would find something else to talk about on the forum.

ok then. jim torbett was jailed for 3 years in november 1999 after sexualy abusing young boys in the celtic boys club. his fellow coach frank cairney ws similary charged. the charges went back to the 60's, hence 'big jock knew'.

there are loads of links to what went on this club all over the place in search engines but i thought i might just use the bbc link for good measure.

also neil strachan of the celtic boys club in edinburgh was jailed for similar offences.


still didnae happen keltic bhoy?? or is it just a conspracy.

are these facts still 'twisted', like i say, no more fun than a deluded celtic fan. next you'll be telling me there were 100,000 in suhvil, no arrests and celtic fans have never racially abused black players with monkey suits and banannas. oh aye and there is no bigotted or secterian singing at parkhead.

If that was the case it would have been the result of a sinister cover up.

this is all very interesting, but nobodies really answered the question yet. what is the United - Celtic connection ?

(and dont say there isnt one there is I live in Manchester, im not really into football, but there is !)

[lordbarneth]

there is'nt one, go to any city in england and all the teams fans tend to have loyalties toward rangers or celtic, with one or other being there scottish team.
it really is another of the greatest fans in the worlds myth's.
