It seems that
John Reid is going to join the Celtic Football Club board of directors. An (allegedly) avid singer of the ol' rebel songs, the first Catholic to be named Secretary for Northern Ireland, but also a staunch supporter of the war in Iraq and a personal friend (at one time) of the much misunderstood Radovan Karodicz (sp?) . . .
Imagine Rumsfeld buying the Mets (Red State version would, I suppose, be John Edwards buying the Yankees) and you'll get a sense of the debates raging among the Celtic
bien pensants today. What is to be done?
