Child Abuse in Football

They did say it was bigger than the Saville scandal.

Football abuse inquiry: 83 potential suspects identified

Something is nagging me about the validity of this whole episode, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is.

I will say that it's a remarkable coincidence that whenever the dam seems to be about to break regarding child abuse among the elites (pizzagate, on this occasion) suddenly a whole raft of "little people" start getting it in the neck.

Look here not there.

Welcome, handrash (interesting choice of username ).

Thanks for the link.

All roads lead to Rome Celtic.

The Cairney arrest above makes five the number of Celtic employees arrested,charged or convicted of child sex abuse.

Cairney,Torbett,Cullen,King and McCafferty.How many does it need to be a paedo ring?

Interesting to see Celtic asked any victims to contact the club rather than the police with any fresh allegations.

I wonder where they got that idea from.

Maybe an infamous doctor and former staff member is advising them.

Thanks for posting that, GibJim.

It really is shocking stuff. Very much under the radar as well. Not seen anything in the news about it (apart from your link and a couple of others when just did a google).

The noose tightens on a convicted sex offender from Gerry's former emloyers and favourite football club.
Thanks for that Andrew.

Much like the McCann case the Main Stream Media are reluctant to air it.
It could be because there is a major police investigation ongoing or because Celtic, like Team McCann ,have
muzzled them.
Well done to Mark Daly of the BBC for going where no one else in Scotland dared.

Particularly brave with a name like Daly (one of my ancestors monikers)

Off topic (other than that it does involve alleged child abuse) but, unless this is someone with the same name, Mark Daly is the journalist who investigated the Hollie Greig case and was going to do a programme about it until he realised that Hollie's mother Anne was telling a pack of lies.

Needless to say Anne spun the story that Mark Daly had been silenced by the powers that be and the excuse given by them - if I recall correctly - was that MD had had a nervous breakdown.

There's a programme at 10.45 tonight on BBC1 called Football Abuse: the ugly side of the beautiful name.

I see that gibraltarjimmy has deleted his account.

This programme was shown in Scotland a few weeks ago and now it is UK wide with an update from last week.
It looks at the abuse scandal at GM's former club.
It is a must see, if you can stomach it.

GibJim... Any connection/relation to handrash?

Or the other way round?
