THE Green Brigade fans group will be REFUSED early access to Celtic Park for tonight's match against Atletico Madrid.

Both the club and the supporters' group have been embroiled in a bitter row over the past couple of weeks, with the Green Brigade now banned from attending away matches.

The Parkhead club were hit with a £23,000 fine for use of pyro at the Champions League clash in Rotterdam last month and a fortnight later fans spilled onto the pitch at Fir Park.

Until now, the Green Brigade were still expected to have access to the Euro clash against Atleti as normal.

Members of the North Curve section often arrive early to matches to set up banners and flag displays

But in the latest shock development, the club have now hit back at the outspoken fans' group by taking away those privileges.

It's understood Celtic chiefs have taken action after fans BROKE INTO the stadium through fire doors before the game against Lazio and also because of threatening behaviour towards club staff.

The club is also increasingly worried about fans taking pictures of police officers in and around the ground, before sharing them on social media in an act known as 'pig watch'.

These issues have prompted club bosses to take further action

It all comes after the Green Brigade blasted the Celtic board earlier tonight, saying they had been subject to "disingenuous claims" regarding their support for Palestine amidst an escalation in the conflict in the Middle East over the Gaza Strip.

The Green Brigade sparked outrage with a banner display reading 'Free Palestine, Victory to the Resistance' at Celtic Park in the wake of a Hamas attack on Israel that killed hundreds of civilians.

Celtic chiefs issued a really strong statement condemning the banner in the aftermath, distancing the club from the display.

In a statement of their own, the Green Brigade doubled down on their stance of urging Hoops fans to fly the Palestine flag against Atletico Madrid this week and reiterated their desire to hand out thousands of them before the game

 

Cheers. If true. I'm surprised they haven't been banned outright, rather than just away games. I'm utterly fed up with them and their antics. It's all about them and their political agenda. Its never about the team and the football. 

If any other supporter behaved this way, they'd be banned for life.

This, plus the typeface on their banners is a minter.

Celtic's appeal for supporters to refrain from showing banners, flags and symbols that relate to the Israel-Gaza war has been ignored.

The Green Brigade section displays a very large Palestine flag with others placed across the far stand.

It was noted by the Uefa delegate in the build up. It remains to be seen what action, if any, follows as a result from Uefa and indeed the club

VAR anxiety or general tinpottery that Celtic fans aren't going mental?

Celtic score but are subject to uefa sanctions. A rare simultaneous orgasm from both sets of cheeks. If anyone has pics of rangers and Celtic fans having their crowd w**k please don’t post it. Actually, f**k it. Post it and then we can change the argument from religion to Willy size.
