Celtic complained about a journalist writing that some of their fans "would rather have a bead rattling hoppy the hound in the dugout rather than Gordon Strachan"
Here is a press release from the Sunday Herald
"CELTIC Football Club yesterday met with the Sunday Herald newspaper in relation to the recent article containing the line, 'some fans would probably rather have a bead-rattling Hoopy the Huddle Hound in the dug-out.'
During a constructive meeting with regard to this issue, the Sunday Herald has informed the club of the following:
The individual in question will no longer write a column for the Sunday Herald.
The newspaper will be printing a full unreserved apology in this Sunday's edition.
The newspaper will be responding directly and individually to all those people who have complained by letter or e-mail to the Sunday Herald on this matter.
Celtic Football Club welcomes the measures taken by the Sunday Herald."
It's interesting to note that The Nazis and Soviet / Maoist Communists also worked hard at suppressing freedom of expression
