Sasa Papac returned to the sports headlines today bringing back fond memories of his role in a famous Celtic victory.
As a nation frothed with delight followed by mock outrage at a keenly contested Glasgow derby Mark Wilson was about to find his place in Celtic folklore.
Three minutes into the second half the ball fell to Wilson in the opposition box. His first shot was hard and true, Papac bravely headed the ball off the line, as he lay dazed on the turf Wilson casually knocked the rebound into the empty net!

The only way they got there was with EBT’s improperly registered players and by a corrupt association (Still) but now dead.

At one stage Ally McCoist claimed that Papac was head of the new club’s Bosnian scouting network but that role seems to have fallen by the wayside.
Back in Scotland for Kris Boyd’s Testimonial match, which attracted a crowd of just 4,305 including numerous complementaries and competition winners, the EBT holder was chosen to pass on soothing sound-bites to the gullible.
Confirming the glowing status of Steven Gerrard and how the whole world has looked on in amazement at a Europa League campaign that has yielded just five points from four matches Papac made no mention of owing Hector income tax, national insurance, interest and penalties on the £319,000 disguised remuneration that he received, mistakenly thinking that the payment was an EBT.
