    The GB have been disbanded.

    According to the all knowing on here that would be the end of it.

    Yet today we have fans still being harassed.

    How do you explain that?

    Shout at you? Apart from one post (where I used capitals to make a point) out of * knows how many I've made today how many have been disrespectful?

    They were huge, more than just the GB brigade turned up and fans from other teams were there.

    I would agree with your assessment of our performance in the group stages. It didn't turn out as we wanted and it is frustrating but lets be honest it was a brutal draw. Getting to the last 16 from that group was a long shot to say the least IMHO. What was the real disapointment for me was losing out on the Europa League spot.

    Wait are people actually suggesting that it was only members of the Green Brigade getting harassed today? :97:

    Some on here live in their own fantasy land at times.

    I honestly can't believe people can't see what is happening. Normal fans were today being harassed. Their crime was to sing and create an atmosphere, how dare they eh? Some people truly disgust me trying to justify these actions.

    The stadium was as empty as it's been for a league match, and it was great to have some fans create a bit of noise to get behind their team. I am truly worried about the direction this is going to take us.

    Let's remember a lot of these guys are in their teens and early twenties and we are alienating these fans which is going to cause problems further into the future.

    I was at old Trafford last week for the Newcastle match, and the atmosphere was embarrassing for a full house, and I don't want our fans ending up as soulless as their fans.

    And for people wondering what songs were song, don't worry you wouldn't have been offended as no rebels were sung.

    Some guys may also be talking about the fans wearing GB stuff who got * grief for that....that was obviously solely GB related.

    RE the fans singing, I wasn't there today (not a lot of us were by the sounds of it:smiley-laughing002:) so don't know what the actual singing was? Have we been told definitively? Genuine question, as I've nae idea.:50:

    Didn't help with anything though did it? But just because it didn't doesn't mean you should give up or not try alternative measures or continue along the same path. There is no better place to highlight the criminalisation of Celtic fans than at Celtic Park.

    I don't know, the first instance people said stewards went up to people when they started singing "let's all do the huddle" and tried to start a mini huddle.

    Well you'r not going to change the law with one march and you also won't change it with banners inside a football ground IMO.
    I agree it needs changing but just wish those fighting to change it would do it somewhere else.

    Why though? Because as long as you are alright you couldn't give a * about some of our supporters whose lives have been turned upside down by these new laws? We should be united in fighting this crap and standing together. The divide in the support is what's damaging the fight for change, not where or how it has been done so far.
