Mayhem at Celtic AGM adjourned due to shareholder anger | OneFootball

The Celtic AGM was adjourned for 30 minutes by Celtic Chairman Peter Lawwell just a few minutes after it got underway, amid shareholder anger at the Celtic Board.

The Celtic Trust’s Jeanette Findlay approached the front stage as Celtic shareholders, some holding up red cards, made their displeasure perfectly clear as Lawwell attempted to introduce a corporate video presentation.

The Board were loudly booed as they entered the Kerrydale Suite at Celtic Park which is packed full of shareholders, many of whom are extremely unhappy about the situation at the club caused by this Celtic Board.

The Celtic Board has now reappeared with Peter Lawwell issuing a yellow card of his own with a warning that further ‘bad behaviour will see the meeting cancelled. Around a hundred shareholders stage a walk-out in protest against the Celtic Board while the Celtic Chairman gets to play his ‘everything in the garden is rosy’ video.
