After detailing a couple of incidents the Celtic board decided that the appropriate reaction was to suspend 267 Season Ticket holders from the Green Brigade.
Why each incident wasn’t dealt with individually is a bit of a mystery, it seems that the hierarchy which will have reached Michael Nicholson were content to allow things to develop before suspending access to away tickets followed by the action on Season Ticket holders.
Another smaller issue surfaced on Sunday with three individuals deciding to run onto the park. A proper ban that is well publicised should provide a real deterrent but the Celtic Security Team had another solution.
After the 90th minute of the match against Aberdeen the stadium was ringed by stewards ensuring that the fans in the front rows that had decided to stay for the duration had to stand up or move back towards the exits to view the last two goals of the game.
8 minutes left a disgrace! Told we’ve to stand up? @CelticFC @CelticSlo

To deal with three pitch invaders it seems that the solution was to inconvenience thousands of mainly Season Ticket holders that maintain the rules of the stadium.
No explanation has been offered by Celtic, communications isn’t a strength unless they are trying to extract more money out of #thecelticfamily.
December has a glut of home fixtures at a time in the season when attendances tend to take a dip, with Customer Relations like Sunday on offer it will be no surprise of some more fans wonder what the point of it all is.
One of the invaders jumped past them without a hand coming out of a pocket as well. Pointless.

These wee neds that did that need a right good kicking…
The idiot that kicked Strachan of Aberdeen FC at Parkhead seen The Jungle fenced off and Celtic fined £1,000 –
If this trend continues it won’t just be standing behind stewards to see the last few minutes…
It’ll be watching the full 90’ plus injury time through a big wire meshed fence –
As always in life it’s the imbeciles that ruin things for the decent majority !
Not much thought given to those near the front
I think it was a bit more than a couple of incidents that caused Celtic to issue the email.
