Celtic chief Lawwell appointed to SFA board

Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell has been appointed to the Scottish Football Association board.

Lawwell has joined current members chief executive Stewart Regan, president Campbell Ogilvie, vice-president Alan McRae, and second vice-president Rod Petrie, on the board along with Barrie Jackson, the independent non-executive director.

Lawwell was nominated by the Professional Game Board to be their representative on the SFA board.

"Clearly I am pleased to accept this nomination," he said.

"Whilst there are certain challenges facing the game in Scotland, there is also a great deal to be positive about and much to look forward to.

"We must build on these positives and along with other Board members I look forward to playing my part in working to improve and develop various aspects of the game, for the benefit of Scottish football as a whole."
