http://www.celticfc.net/news/9569 Celtic's Chairman's statement By: Newsroom Staff on 20 Nov, 2015 17:20 CELTIC Chairman Ian Bankier has thanked shareholders for their attendance and contribution at today’s Annual General Meeting, and following media coverage of the event, he has also clarified remarks which he made during the AGM. “I would like to thank all our shareholders and supporters who attended today’s AGM. As ever, we enjoyed a healthy exchange of views and yet again it was fantastic to see the passion for all that is going on around our great Club. “Already there has been some media coverage of my comments relating to Ian Livingston and his proposed re-appointment and much of it has been wildly exaggerated and taken totally out of context. “I have not branded our supporters racist and it is outrageous to suggest that I would ever do that. I was only referring to a small number of specific comments which have been made on social media, which I believe are unacceptable, and I know Celtic supporters would agree with me. “Celtic supporters are the lifeblood of the Club and I am delighted to say the best in football, with the best of values. “I thank everyone again for attending today’s AGM to express their views.” --- That's that then.

I think most of us could put forward a pretty compelling argument that our club and supporters are some of the most diverse and and tolerant in the world of football. No matter what statement comes out or who puts their name behind it I believe that this will be the end for certain members of the board. It has to be, it just has to. |

He won't be going anywhere They don't listen to fans. Simple as that The only way they'll listen to us is if we hit them in the pocket, it's all they care about, and I'm afraid I don't see it happening I'd love nothing more than us being able to force these ***** to listen and act but I can't see fans organising the way we did before People will rage online as its easy to do, actually doing something to make them listen is another thing altogether |

"referring to a small number of specific comments" doesn't match up with what he was saying earlier when he said a 'torrent of abuse'. bullshampoo. |

Ah, the old 'taken out of context' excuse. Bankier would have got more sympathy if he'd released a statement admitting he'd been an idiot and that his remarks were ignorant and unfounded. |

They've used this fecking non event over the livingston thing to distract from any genuine criticism of the footballing side of the operation, and rather deftly too it would seem. |

Sadly you are probably right. We laughed heartily at David Somers performance at the zombie AGM, today we saw Bankier surpass that, Somers at least made a few decent points though it wasn't what the Orc wanted to hear. That Statement is so weak and snivelling right enough, it won't strengthen his position from earlier today and he will be seriously compromised should he hang on.

Surely nobody can be surprised? The board to a man are effwits. And yet some people will swallow the bullshampoo they spout. They have turned the club into a rudderless ship going nowhere. |

You're giving them too much credit if you think it was a deliberate tactic to deflect from more important issues. It was just another gaffe from a board which looks increasingly incompetent and detached from reality. |

Were you hoping somebody was going to ask about the merits of zonal marking or why we don't at two strikers? |

I didn't even know what Bankier looked like until today, which tells you what sort of impact he's made during his time at the club. |
