Celtic facing a UEFA rap

"Celtic are facing a UEFA rap after sick fans were filmed belting out bigoted chants in Barcelona

Scores of boozy morons were caught screaming f*** the Queen and pro-IRA slogans during a giant outdoor bash thrown for the recent Champions League clash.

A string of the hate-filled mobile phone clips quickly sprang up on the internet. And now the Parkhead club could be hauled before Euro football chiefs to explain the shameful scenes.

Last night a UEFA spokesman said "The disciplinary department has opened an investigation following their watching and assessment of the footage."

Around 10,000 Hoops fans invaded Barcelona earlier this month for the match,which the Spanish side won 1-0, but a minority of yobs trashed the reputation of decent supporters.

Several vile videos were even shot at the official Celtic Meeting Point fans' zone - as well as various bars.

A UEFA source said "If the investigation is conclusive, it will turn into a disciplinary case"
