Celtic Football Club has decided to refuse entry to the Green Brigade supporters group, known for enhancing the atmosphere at games, starting from the upcoming match against St Mirren. The decision has been made due to the group's unacceptable behavior in the past.
No club issues bans to its own supporters, especially not a sizeable and passionate group which does much to enhance the atmosphere at their games, lightly.
But the ultras, as has always been the case in the past when they have been denied access through the turnstiles, only have themselves to blame for their fate. Their behaviour has fallen some way short of what is acceptable for some time. The only surprise is it has taken so long to dish out this punishment.
It is not the only offence they have been guilty of this season. Far from it. They seem completely incapable of attending a game ofThey reportedly broke into the ground before the Champions League group game against Lazio earlier this month and set up an unauthorised and offensive tifo which Celtic were subsequently fined by UEFA for.Their conduct before the opening Group E encounter with Feyenoord in Rotterdam last month had not been any better.
Then there is Pig Watch. Photographs of police officers at their matches have been posted on the North Curve Celtic account on X for some time in what the person or persons responsible claim is a “perfectly legal defence tactic of documenting officers perceived to be intimidating, aggravating or harassing supporters”. But some of those snapped have been publicly identified online and their personal safety compromised.
