Apparently 3 Celtic first team players were arrested lastnight after their Christmas party for allegedly stealing a photographers camera.

Tony Cascarino wrote an article in a paper recently about players parties and said that while he was at Chelsea Vinnie Jones organised a party one Christmas which involved a lock-in and "dwarf-throwing". Unfortunately one of the dwarves was injured after being thrown into a table and chairs.

Three Celtic first-team players have spent the night in custody after being arrested during a club night out, police said today. The players were arrested outside a Newcastle bar last night by police probing the alleged theft of a press photographer's camera.

The club had been staging their Christmas party at the American-themed showbar, where bikini-clad waitresses serve customers.

A Northumbria Police spokeswoman said: ``The players were with the group from the club who were in Bufallo Joe's on the Gateshead side of the river as were a number of photographers.

``There was an incident of some sort. The players left the premises then one of the photographers reported the theft of his camera to police.

``After investigations on the Quayside of the river a number of Celtic players were arrested for questioning and three remain in custody and will be questioned later.''

A Celtic spokeswoman said the club was still investigating what had happened and had no comment to make.

The players being held by police are Bobby Petta, Johan Mjallby, and Joos Valgaeren, according to sources.

Absolutely classic. I was singing the praises of Joos Valgaeren last night, probably at the same time that he was getting nicked.
