    I doubt "being in the spotlight" is one of his concerns

    What point? Jay is raising awareness and money for charity. Do we just say sorry mate your time is up we need a new face? Really?

    I get your point mate and know what you mean. Have thought the same myself at times. But it's great to see how happy he is!

    How is that being a *? What do you suggest? Rolling out a new handicapped Celtic ambassador every year just because? I think you're missing the point if you think it's all about meeting the players and getting to do the stuff "Jay gets to do"

    I'm sure plenty of them get the chance to do so through the foundation, it isn't only Jay that gets treated a certain way because he's the face of the Celtic Foundation. There's no rule that says while Jay is here no other child may meet the players or benefit from the work Jay and his family have put in. Ridiculous.

    Not once did i say that we were to roll out another handicapped child as bunk stated, which is so mature from him. I don't mean just meeting the players & getting a signature. Kids are all the same being over social media in pictures with them must be a life long dream.

    I seen a picture of a little girl on twitter the other day getting a photo with the players & it looked as if she was in dreamland. Just think this should be spread about a bit more

    I didn't say you said that either, I asked you a question after you made your post. Obviously you got a bit defensive on the subject.

    I'll ask again: What do you suggest? Rolling out a new handicapped Celtic ambassador every year just because? Because that seems what you're alluding to. Even more so in your last post.

    My point is Jay is doing good in general so why stop?

    It's nothing to do with being the Celtic ambassador mate. I just think Celtic could make even more kids feel as special as wee Jay must feel with all the attention he gets

    There is a young boy about 10 who sits not far from me at Celtic park, seems to never miss a game. Sings & shouts with the GB & you can totally tell he loves being a Celtic fan. Would be good for him to get the same attention

    Sure we could but the point is raising awareness and money for the foundation. I'm sure we make many disadvantaged kids feel special behind the scenes with players visiting sick kids in hospital and such. The fact Jay is the face of the foundation doesn't mean he's the only one.

    Great wee guy. His Dad just posted this. He's off to bed for Santa and left his wish list.
