The Fans Against Criminalisation Twitter account has urged concerned Celtic fans to contact Michael Nicholson over the rumoured appointment of Bernard Higgins to a security role inside the club.

While Ian Bankier hedged his bets at the recent Celtic AGM there can be little doubt that The Green Brigade has mobilised their opposition to some effect.

Following a 30 minute silence and tennis ball protest, yesterday a sit in was staged after the win over Aberdeen with chanting heard during post match media interviews.

The FAC led opposition to the Offensive Behaviour at Football Grounds Act which was repealed by the Scottish Parliament in 2018. It appears that similar opposition is being mobilised to oppose Higgins who has been strongly linked to the implementation of the previous act.

Other than in reply to questions at the AGM there has been no comment from Celtic but a vow of silence appears unlikely to resolve the stand-off with supporters.
