Reid to be Celtic chairman


John Reid is set to become the new chairman of Scottish giants Celtic. Reid, a former UK government minister, has been a lifelong Celtic fan. The 60-year-old former Home Secretary will take over from Brian Quinn.

The politician, who is standing down as an MP at the next General Election, said: "Brian Quinn has been a superb chairman and is an extremely hard act to follow.

"I have been a supporter of Celtic for many years and am delighted to be invited to join the board and carry on the great work that has already been done."
