Celtic have this evening been charged by UEFA for ‘setting off fireworks’ when they entertained Cluj on match-day two – most likely referring to the Tifo by The Green Brigade which was excellently executed.

The banner which depicted Muhammad Ali on his knees only to rise up with the message ‘Ain’t nothing wrong with going down, it’s staying down that’s wrong’.

Pyro was then used inside the section in a display which was widely praised by the Celtic support and the wider football community.

Our reporter at the game captured the video which went viral and even Soccer Bible contacted us about the footage to share with their 1.2m followers.

The use of pyro is forbidden inside stadiums and UEFA don’t care if it’s done safely or not. Celtic have already had an away day find this term for the same reason and the club will now face disciplinary measures in October 17th.

The club will have no little power in defending the use of pyro with another fine likely.

  1. Celtic have to try and claim any money in fines back from the Green Brigade, it was in their section and they know these are not allowed, I as a Celtic fan have had it with fans just doing what they want and Celtic copping the fine and our good name being dragged though the mud, it has to stop so we as a club should make a point of claiming this back or suspending the culprits, its on TV so easy to pick those faces out, enough is enough.

  2. The green brigade are excellent for their support by why do they continually let the club down they know the rules

END THIS NOW CELTIC HAMMER THESE CLOWNS!!

  4. Celtic have the solution in their own hands. They have paid thousands of pounds installing state of the art surveillance cameras and staff to monitor what is happening inside the ground. How hard would it be to identify and ban those holding flares. The G B think they are untouchable and don’t really care regarding the consequences that Celtic will face due to them persistently ignoring rules set by FIFA. There is no excuse for the Green Brigade. They are all to aware that setting off flares will lead to another fine or worse still stand closure. Does this bother them. Obviously not. No one or no group of fans is Bigger than the club. The G.B do some great work especially with charities but this does not give them free reign to do what they like. I have been a season ticket holder for many years with group of 14 others. 9 of that Group are non Catholics and l cringe every time the GB belt out songs glorifying the IRA. We keep saying we are a club for all. Isn’t it time we proved that and ditch the R A songs. Lets stop all this flare nonsense and stupid songs and support our team.
