Read his book, really good read.
Felt pretty sorry for him after reading it, he let people take the * out of him far to easily.

Sticking up for his pal Rod

THE so-called Celtic supporters who told Rod Stewart he’s not welcome at Parkhead for being a Tory should have their season tickets removed.

I might need to swap my Santa hat for a crash helmet, but this needs said.

I was absolutely raging when I saw the banner last weekend telling our most famous supporter to f*** off because he had tweeted his congratulations to Prime Minister Boris Johnson after his landslide election win.

Who the * do these people think they are?

This little band of dafties which is probably no more than 30 strong is the nerve centre of the Green Brigade ultras group.

They seem to think there’s a hierarchy among the support and they are top of the pile, more important that anyone else.

These are the same people who tell other fans to move out of their seats at away games to make way for them.

I know this because I’ve spoken to people who’ve been asked to move and that’s not on.

Clearly, they have someone in their ranks who can produce a banner in no time at all. I might even feature on one of them myself, after getting this off my chest.

But no matter how vocal they are or how visibly striking their displays become, they do not speak for the rest of the Celtic support.

It pains me to say this because a lot of the work the Green Brigade does is absolutely terrific.

The charitable collections and foodbank donations are at the heart of what Celtic stands for.

You only have to look at the club’s social mission statement.

It reminds us that when it was founded, Celtic had two principal aims: one was to raise funds to provide food for the poor of the East End of Glasgow.

The second was to provide a vehicle to bring together Scots and the new influx of Irish. To give Protestants and Catholics alike a club they could both support.

But it also stresses that the club has no political agenda and that “Celtic is a club for everyone who believes in football as a medium for healthy pleasure, entertainment and social integration.

“The club always has been and always will simply aim to be the team of the people.”

And it seeks to support the following aims: “To maximise all opportunities to disassociate the Club from sectarianism and bigotry of any kind.

To promote Celtic as a club for all people, regardless of gender, age, religion, race or ability.” And there we have it. A club open to all.

If someone decides to vote Conservative for their own reasons, then that is their business and their business alone.

I might not agree with them but it’s their right to choose. That’s what happens in a democracy.

Rod Stewart is the greatest global ambassador Celtic has.

He’s a walking, talking, rocking and rolling advert for the Hoops and he loves nothing more than sharing his love for the club with audiences the world over

He’s had the Celtic crest on his drum kit for as long as I can remember, he shows footage of famous matches on giant screens and he even mentions his love for the team in one of his most famous songs.

These people who claim to have the club’s best interests at heart would do well to remember that Rod is spreading the Celtic message louder and further than they ever will.

And by the way, it doesn’t matter if it’s Rod Stewart or Joe Bloggs — if someone chooses to vote Tory, that’s between them and the ballot box.

I might not agree with it, but I certainly wouldn’t go about telling fellow supporters to f**k off and that they’re not welcome at Celtic Park because they choose to put a cross in a box at an election.

How dare they? Everyone connected with Celtic should be delighted to have someone with Rod Stewart’s profile and international fanbase telling the world that he supports the greatest club of them all.

Keep doing what you’re doing, Rod — you’re in the club’s heart, you’re in the club’s soul
