Green Brigade, Celtic FC and Martin O’Neill
9 October 2026
Celtic supporters group Green Brigade has announced plans to boycott Scottish Cup matches and home European fixtures amid escalating tensions with the club’s board. The protest follows Celtic’s threat of indefinite bans over an incident targeting shareholder Dermot Desmond.
The group accuses the board of disregarding supporters and disputes the club’s response to recent protests. Celtic has withdrawn recognition of the Celtic Fans Collective, while manager Martin O’Neill criticised the confrontation and called for unity.
