    They are supporter groups , the jungle boys normally just focus their attention on Celtics displays whether it would be banners flags etc..
    The green brigade are the same except they like to involve politics which is why you will see guys with palestine flags at games for example , the support are split 50/50 on the green brigade , some like them some dont. Me personally i appreciiate that they bring a decent atmosphere to the ground but should leave their politics away from the football.

    Having a season ticket in 444 I have had the great privilage of joining in with the jungle bhoys songs and chants .. They give off a really positive vibe and are non stop. You'll find them from 443-445. 10/10 atmosphere on european nights.

    Don't know too much about the green brigade but I think their strong political stance can be abit too much for some fans. (not myself) You'll find them at 111.

    They refused to hand their drum to stewards and the man who had the drum got chucked out the ground so they all walked out in protest and sang that outside the ground.

    You might also notice the Green Brigade have a banner at just about every home and away match and its always upside down. Apparently they are making some kind of protest by doing this, though I'm not sure if its against the club or the police or summit else. The JB's and the GB also tend to slag each other off depending on what fanzine you by. I've also heard that they all used to be part of one group but fell out cos the GB felt that there was not enough focus on Celtic's Irish connection. :shamrock:

    its a protest against john reid being club chairman , they say it will not be the right way up until he is no longer the chairman.

    It's because they see celtic chairman John Ried as a war criminal and are ashamed that he is affiliated with the club and they say they will not correct it untill he is no longer chairman.

    i prefer the green brigade they sing non stop and vocalise their opinions on world matters sometimes but most of the time on celtic and football related matters and i find this refreshing from the convensional supporters groups.

    let´s all do the huddle..
    last year´s pre season friendlies in rotterdam were attendent by about 1,000 Celtic Supporters and there were a lot of bg bhoys. the atmosphere at that game was incredible! we sung for 90 min cause they started song after song... the only thing i don´t like are these ira songs..

    Jungle Bhoys are great as well - good displays at home games (is it cold in his shadow, ireland flag on jock stein stand, etc..)

    The gb are deluded .

    E.g roughly 150 gb members went to lennoxtown to protest against the tartan on the new away strip.
    If you look up on their comments on their worst Celtic experience/moment.(can't remmember the exact name of the thread) alot of these clowns are quoting poppygate.
    They are ANTI everything.
    The only possitive comments I have seen on their site is when they are complimenting themselves on their banners at the games.
    There is peace in Ireland so they have to find another war to pick a side and support.
    What does the palestine flag have to do with Celtic?
    Does anyone care about the greenbrigade banner being upside down?
    I go to the games to watch Celtic , I sit near to these brainwashed wee boys and they do create some noise and it does improve the atmosphere at the game but they need to get a grip.

    despite that they´re true celtic fans who give everything for the club. they got their opinion on a lot of political stuff but that´s not always bad... it´s better than all these "yes sayers"

    as i said it they shouldn´t sing these stupid ira songs...
