St Fergus day


As stated in the article he needs more than just a banner hangin round the stadium ,,,,,,,get it done Celtic

Fergus had a choice to make.....allow us to be liquidated at the time of his takeover and save himself £millions.....or pay all the money owing to the Bank who were trying to shut us down at the behest of David Murray.....he took the morally correct and dignified route.....he paid every penny owed.....we kept our dignity and our Club continued to be Celtic.....unlike the club currently playing out of Ibrox who took the opposite route.....went in to liquidation.....and showed exactly how dignified they really are by paying absolutely no one...

We will never let them forget.....they lied, cheated and financially doped.....they were liquidated.....and liquidation means they died.....FACT

Rangers were MURRAYED while Celtic were McCANNED !

Ironically, Fergus was condemned by many for being mean yet it is Sevco who are not worth ONE THIN DIME , to quote Fergus, while Celtic are financially sound !

When Fergus took over Murray gave the for every £5 we'll spend a tenner speech ,he also included that when he heard glen daly it gladdened his heart as he knew Celtic would never reach the level of Rangers

He saved Celtic, put us in a stable financial position, paid all creditors, gave us a brand new stadium, sold 50,000 season tickets, chased Jim Farry,and most importantly, he gave us a future.

We nearly went the same way as Deidco. No way would a reformed Celtic be allowed to rejoin the league and claim our history.
The SFA encouraged by the Hunnite media would have ensured we went the same way as Third Lanark and Vale of Leven. Remembered only in the history books. The SFA would have put us in the ground and kept us there.
All Hail, Hail Fergus the Bunnet.
