Compensation case against Celtic for historic sexual abuse allegations adjourned to December 19 | Football news
A compensatory case against Celtic for historic sexual abuse allegations has been adjourned until December 19.
The Court’s case was adjourned to allow both parties to prepare legal arguments.
22 former Celtic Boys Club players are seeking compensation from Celtic FC over allegations of sexual abuse.
The alleged offenses date back to the 1970s and 80s. It is a claim worth millions of pounds.
The case revolves around whether Celtic should be held liable as an employer for what allegedly took place at the Boys’ Club.
Lawyers representing the men argued that Celtic Boys Club and Celtic FC had “an intimate relationship”.
Celtic FC denies the claim – insisting that the two organizations are separate entities.
