In a significant development Celtic Football Club has officially welcomed the return of the Green Brigade to Celtic Park. This comes after a period of absence due to disagreements and safety concerns that led to a temporary ban of the group. The return is not just a reopening of gates for the fans; it’s a sign of renewed understanding and cooperation between Celtic and one of its most vocal supporter groups.

The path to this resolution has been paved with dialogue and negotiation that has not always guaranteed a positive ending. The cornerstone of this agreement is the updated Rail Seating Safety Code of Conduct. While the specific details of the amendments have not been publicly disclosed, the acceptance of this updated code by the Green Brigade suggests a compromise and mutual understanding reached on critical issues.

A spokesperson for Celtic told CeltsAreHere: “Following consultation with the group, the Club has now implemented an updated Rail Seating Safety Code of Conduct which has been accepted by the group, allowing for a return to a situation where rules and regulations around operating safely are respected and complied with.” This statement highlights the club’s commitment to safety while acknowledging the importance of the Green Brigade’s presence at matches.

This new code of conduct likely addresses the club’s safety and behavioural concerns while respecting the group’s need for expression and support for the team.

The return of the Green Brigade is more than a logistical update; it’s a massive boost to the club’s match-day atmosphere. Known for their colourful displays, chants, and unwavering support, the Green Brigade has been an integral part of the Celtic Park experience for a long time now. Their absence was felt throughout the ban

The return of the Green Brigade promises to inject renewed energy and support into the team. This resolution sets a precedent for how clubs and fan groups can work together to address issues, ensuring safety while preserving passion.

We look forward to the Livingston game and hope everyone gets behind the team as they look to get over a poor run of domestic form that has seen their place at the top of the league face major jeopardy.

  1. Also known for ignoring the team and obsessively singing about the IRA and costing the club a fortune in fines due to their offensive banners & childish pyros.

    Celtic should have banned them for good.

    The neds will never wise up.

    • Spoiled your Christmas has it?

      That’s very sad.

      Hopefully tolerance and respect is shown by all and Celtic fans at the games will remain united as they always have been.

      This is in start contrast with the bile merchants on socia media, who are still “celebrating” our failed 10-in-a-row.

      They’re an irrelevance and their attempts to divide the Celtic fans will suffer the same humiliating defeat, as they always have.
