Even so a team with a largely catholic support moaning that a referee who happens to be a teacher of RE at a catholic school is against them just shows how paranoid they are.
Celtic (and Rangers) have always had a small unsavoury element in their support. In the last year or so the celtic minority have become more and more vocal and disturbing with the IRA supporting chants and songs, smoke flares, attacking of stewards and general hooliganism becoming more and more evident.
Their dispute of every decision that goes against them whilst mysteriously staying quiet on decisions in their favour isn't doing them any favours.

Paranoid, when Tait openly boasts about never having given a penalty against Rangers and regularly attends Rangers supporters functions as an after dinner speaker, could all be legit I guess but tbh I would be asking questions to especially as this sort of thing has followed Scottish football for generations.
