I AM THE LAW...WELL!!!!

No.1

Peter Lawwell

Celtic chief executive

Why is he important?

Many in Scottish football, only half-jokingly, refer to Lawwell as the man who controls the game. That amount of influence is overstating his reach, but it is undoubted that he is an all-powerful figure. Like Charles Green, he is at the head of an organisation with a vast fanbase, which provides Celtic with its authority but, unlike Green, the Parkhead chief executive is well-versed in Scottish football politics. He played a significant role in salvaging crucial TV income for the SPL after Rangers’ financial collapse. He sits on the SFA’s professional game board, while his Celtic colleague and ally, the finance director Eric Riley, sits on the SPL board. He has presided over a time in which Celtic have balanced their finances and remained successful, building strong foundations for the club’s future. Rangers will eventually return, and the dynamic of his relationship with the club’s new owners will be fascinating. Even after league reconstruction, Lawwell will still be a commanding presence.

His Pal who stays in Tucson used to be the head Honcho at the FBI and best pals with Jnr George Bush. He is a nice guy, but before I came back over to Scotland for my sabbatical I got into a conversation about Obama care with him.

Well you would of thought I had asked him if his maw took it up the a-hole by the look and response I got!
