It seems that Celtic failed again with their attempts to ban the Green Brigade from home matches.
After the home match with Falkirk on October 29 the club has come out with three statements using various forms of language about something.
The description has been slowly watered down but the attack on the Green Brigade has been stepped up.
FALKIRK INCIDENT
From a three match ban to indefinite with the only evidence presented being a long distance shot of around 80 fans leaving the standing section.
Strangely no CCTV coverage from the concourse has been shared on the Celtic website. Police Scotland has appealed for video footage of the mystery incident.
Last night the front section of the Standing Section was closed off and covered up. From the video clip below it seems that some of those banned were able to enter the stadium.

There were a few familiar chants from the top tier at that corner last night. They even managed to unfurl a banner which some might interpret as mocking their ban.
After missing the last three matches Chairman Peter Lawwell was back watching his beloved club last night. His presence was acknowledged in song.
INDEFINITE BAN
Sunday’s match against Hearts should have been the final match of the original ban.
It is also the day of the Green Brigade appeal for food.
Every year the Ultras group put in a lot of effort to help food banks across the west of Scotland.
Support for the Green Brigade can be measured in the hundreds of carrier bags brought to Celtic Park plus thousands of pounds in donations.
A very efficient operation then collects and distributes the food parcels to food banks giving people direct access. It is the sort of action that mirrors the reasons that Celtic were founded.
COLLECTIVE SUPPORT
Celtic appear to have targeted the Green Brigade for punishment with 300 Season Tickets banned with no-one convicted from the Falkirk match. The actions of the club has strengthened the Fans Collective. Action by action. Sanction by sanction.
On Sunday at 1.15 there will be a march from St Mary’s in Abercromby Street to Celtic Park led by the Fans Collective. Supporters will be encouraged to bring and donate food.
While supporters work to help the poor of 2025 Celtic paid £11.5m in Corporation Tax last year to HMRC.
At the match against Hearts individual Supporters Clubs in the Collective are expected to take part in a banner protest.
MORE THAN THE GREEN BRIGADE
While Michael Nicholson targets the Green Brigade the Collective has hundreds of Supporters Clubs signed up to their aims.
Recent away matches have seen red card protests.
On Sunday with Sky Sports showing the match live banners from across Scotland will show their opposition to Nicholson, Lawwell and cronies.
Neither Dermot or Ross Desmond are likely to attend the match.
