SCOTS police are investigating a sickening rant against Celtic and the Catholic church posted on former top English ref Jeff Winter’s website.
The internet diary entry called the Pope a “dress wearing, Nazi, kiddy-fiddling protector” and asked if altar boys would be “abused in celebration” after Celtic beat Rangers last month.
Celtic yesterday reported the matter to Strathclyde Police, who confirmed they had begun a probe.

Pretty mild stuff for up there I would have thought.![Confused](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif)

Dear Polly
I was going to PM you this but I thought it might make your friends smile too.
I opened the postbox on Thursday and found your envelope. Conversation between me and Alex follows:
ME: Oh look , it must be a Christmas card from Mummy's friend in Australia
ALEX - No it's not. It's got a Halloween sticker on it.
That's not for Halloween. It is a nice Christmas card - look at it.
- Well if it's Christmas why has it got a witch sticker on it?
Mummy's friend is a witch.
- Is she? IS SHE REALLY? WOW! Does she fly and everything?
(Hiding my big smile) I'm not sure if she really flies Alex but I know she's got different hats and a wand.
- A real wand. How do you know? Have you seen it?
I haven't seen it but I know that the guards at the airport tried to take it out of her bag when she went to England a while ago.
- WOW! Like when Chloe forgot about her school scissors in her pencil case and the guard threw them in the bin?
Yes, but they didn't take my friend's wand because it wasn't sharp. Nor were Chloe's baby scissors but the guard was being extra careful with those.
- Do all witches have their own stickers then?
I don't know. My friend does obviously.
- I don't think your friend is a proper witch yet Mummy anyway. I think she's still learning.
Why?
- Well she had to get an aeroplane so she hasn't learned how to fly yet !
Thanks a lot for the lovely card Polly. Sorry you never got one from us. I was hopeless and never sent one to anybody - except for the children's orphanage.
Hope this doesn't bring on an avalanche of people asking why they didn't get cards - ooops. Perhaps it should have been a PM after all - lol.
