    Celtic were never going into liquidation that's rubbish. A pal of mine was invited to a party at livingstone airport, believing that Gerald Weisfelt would be the new owner of celtic. He wasn't the only contender, there were several consortium involved. Don't believe all you read or hear.

    I loved this man, but the fans hated him. I grew up with the old stadium and was a season ticket holder throughout Fergus era. ❤️
    I personally think this man should have a statue next to big Cesar.
    If it wasn’t for him there wouldn’t be Celtic.
