    I do just fine matey. I watch the football and thats all that matters to me. I stand up for the Champions and celebrate and enjoy the atmosphere like the majority.

    I agree with you re the law is an *, but it's there and it has to be abided by. As I said before "Smile for the Camera" is petty and pointless; rising above the bill instead of putting barriers up, something Celtic have done in this Country for 125 years is what we should do.

    I want the club to comment before we go any further with this situation.

    Aye, there's no doubt about it in my mind.

    You're contradicting yourself.

    Juve game? The whole support rose to the occasion which makes the GB appear drowned out, which is coincidentally what we all want - the whole stadium giving it big licks and not just one section and its immediate surrounding areas.

    Today of course there was a lack of noise input, they weren't even in the * stadium ffs!!

    Half a game? A whole 45 minutes? Really??

    calm down.

    I just find it odd the police would arrest them for nothing. Who knows what these people are up to outside of a match day.

    There's plenty of fans who attend games all over the world who go and sing, cheer and have a good time supporting there team without any hassle.

    For the police to target anyone without prior suspicion is just odd.

    What happened to a club open to all does that not include the green brigade,I think the board should tread very carefully here they are all for the guys incredible displays and support but don't like their views unless it suits them :rolleyes:

    Well Neil Lennon said they would "weed them out" looks like it's happening. The club are going to drive away a large number of their week in week out supporters if they aren't careful.

    Well after we went 0-1 v Juve we fell silent that's a first as this never happens as the GB sing through everything .


    the half game it was the first half I can't remember what game but the GB came to life in the second half ...must have been another protest

    I'd imagine they live normal lives like the rest of us. What do you think they're doing in their day to day lives? Cutting about in balaclavas experimenting with Semtex??

    The Green Brigade, as a collective, are a politicised group of working class lads who don't conform to the status quo. That's without even mentioning the fact that they hold a considerable amount of influence within the Celtic support.

    There's yer answer.

    The board are quite happy to "use" the Green Brigade when it suits them, for example the ample pictures framed and sold at extortionate prices in the club shop of the Barcelona display. Yet requests from fans fall on deaf ears.

    For me the GB have brought a lot to the games at Celtic Park and without them home games would be a Library(like all other stadiums in the UK). Yet the club and major authorities still treat all football fans as hooligans from the 80`s. People bring up Hillsborough as an example of why standing sections etc shouldn`t be brought back into football, when it was the authorities that let the fans down.

    Instead of moaning about the GB, they should be receiving the support of all fans.

    Well why would Lenny say the above if some were doing nothing wrong ?

    Why would the club want to risk this if the fans were doing nothing wrong why would they say anything ??

    Exactly when it suits their agenda they are all for it but then won't stand by the same said supporters being victimised in my eyes by the authorities,it's just wrong on so many levels :54:

    Just spoke to someone I know in the GB. Poor show, blatant victimisation seem to be the main theme.

    Embarrassing that the club stands back and does nothing. Driving the clubs customers away and yet they do nothing.

    See as I was making two points on the same quoted post I thought I'd make a colour difference so to show which point my answer was refering too .

    Hope this clears up my daft text :50:

    Agree with you m8 also know someone who was treated poorly by the club and the authorities earlier this year,it actually made the papers cause he wasn't putting up with it,these guys are supporters just like you and I and some more so they go that extra bit to follow our great club just seems a slap in the face sometimes :54:

    most people wont agree with me here and i will state first that im not for or against the green brigade but i dont think they were missed today, and i really think there pushing most fans away with all the goings on, as i said most wont agree just my opinion and i dont no the ins and outs of there situation but most celtic fans go and support there team no matter what.
