Celtic fans mourn loss of Rafferty
Rafferty only retired in April as president of the Affiliation of Celtic Supporters Clubs. He was the supporters' voice on a wide range of subjects, from ticketing arrangements to the exodus of thousands of fans to Seville in 2003 for the Uefa Cup final.
Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell said yesterday: "This is terrible news and our thoughts are, first and foremost, with Peter's wife Winnie, his daughters Anne Marie, Jacqueline and Carol, his grandchildren and all his family."
