CELTIC are engulfed in a civil war after yesterday's bad tempered AGM was ABORTED with Ross Desmond launching an all-out attack on sections of the support.

The chaotic annual meeting was brought to a halt by chairman Peter Lawwell after shareholders erupted when Desmond (right)- non executive director and son of Hoops powerbroker Dermot - let rip at the critics of his dad and the board.

The AGM was halted after just four minutes amid red card protests and chants from the audience - and was then shelved when shareholders erupted during Desmond's statement on behalf of him and his father.

The director branded a section of fans as bullies who had 'dehumanised' club officials and caused disruption with repeated bad behaviour.
