The Green Brigade has announced their intention to ‘Welcome the team’ before Saturday’s match at home to Motherwell.
In most circumstances that sort of action would be welcomed but at Celtic things are a bit different with the Green Brigade currently suspended by the club.
Over the last month the situation has deteriorated from a ban on away tickets to having Season Tickets suspended for the last two matches.
Celtic recently sent out an email to all Season Ticket holders listing a number of incidents blamed on the Green Brigade which has been countered by various social media releases from the Ultras group.
Welcome the team!

The ‘Welcome the Team’ plan is bound to attract some other fans to back the Green Brigade, what happens once the players and management go inside the stadium will be a concern for the Celtic board and Police Scotland.
Individual match tickets could have been bought for the match but the Green Brigade won’t be able to congregate together with the stand off looking more likely to escalate rather than be resolved.
