Nacho Novo: "Celtic is a sham; it's not Catholic at all"

He cannot walk through the streets of Glasgow. Sometimes they have to close shops for him before the fans and onlookers descend. Nacho Novo, a Rangers legend, has returned with his family for a brief visit to the city where he made his name as a footballer. There he awaits his new destiny, having ended his contract with Legia Warsaw where he played for half a season and won the Polish Cup.

 

The reforming of Rangers in the Third division as a result of its debts has been met with absolute rage from some Celtic supporters - its perpetual rival - which have gone to the extreme of repeated death threats to Nacho Novo.

 

"It used to be a common occurrence but, since the invention of Twitter, the threats have multiplied. A lot of Celtic supporters every day wish for my death and that of my children and it is really unpleasant although it's normal practice in Celtic, a sham of a club, calling itself Catholic but it's not at all", commented Nacho Novo.

 

"You only need to look at its recent history and see the shady events that club has had. It thinks it is fooling people. That's why it's an honour to be from Rangers, a team with values, with respect and with history. Whatever happens, it will always be the best team in Scotland", he concluded.

They're furious as a natural state, no matter what they're doing.

 

I'm sure the counter reformation is still going on, catholics just won't give up the pursuit of power and will use every and any device to obtain it.

I don't get all this religious crap tbh. It's 2012 lads

While on the subject of twitter I think all football players should be careful what they write there. They only need to slip once. Even Big Lee said he was bullied into joining twitter :-)

I think Nacho knows exactly what he is doing.

I wish him and all the other people from the stone age that give a fuck about this stuff would please do it elsewhere and not in Rangers name.

 

Actually, it's not happening in the stone age, it's happening now.

 

I think Nacho has brought up a very good point by saying that septic fans are not true catholics and their indignation at things that happen in Scotland is just a sham, to further their ends, to have this country run from Rome again.

 

They shouted to Salmond about the football bigotry laws, their press officer had a private meeting with Salmond, and no more was said. I don't know what was said, it was private you see, in a democracy. Salmond could have told him where to get off, or he may have promised him something.

 

Just today, the catholic church have been very vociferous over gay marriage, and they've decided to take stock by delaying the decision.

 

As an atheist, I'd be worried that I could be imprisoned for my religious views, or even killed in the street.

 

If folk really beleive this is a stone age issue, they should tell the authorities, or their MSP, instead of slagging others opinions in the guise of protecting "us".
