    I've seen Paolo do plenty of interviews and listen to a few radio interviews and he's always came across as a nice person. So in that respect I'll not let his apparent political ideologies affect my judgement of him as a person.

    Also for me I don't see why he should be seen any differently to a Zionist like Bitton. Both political ideologies I disagree with strongly but I won't let that get in the way of how I view them as people and as footballers.

    What? Why not? It's a pretty key aspect of him as a person.

    Fascism is completely unacceptable and inconsistent with our identity as a club. He should not be welcome here.

    We have * on the board actively engaged in running our club who have views that are inconsistent with our identity as a club.

    For them to ban Di Canio would be pretty hypocritical.

    The most exciting Celtic player I've ever seen, obviously not as good as Larsson but the skill, trickery and passion he played with were unequaled. * off first chance he got :54:

    That's a very fair point. Can't see a resurrected Brother Walfrid giving zero-hour contracts and refusing to pay a living wage TBH.
