The Green Brigade have released a statement to confirm if they will be allowed to attend the game against Dundee United.

Celtic banned the Green Brigade after citing trouble during a game against Falkirk on 29 October.

Since then, the two have been at loggerheads with each other, with the Celtic ultras group criticising the club’s response.

Martin O’Neill hoped to act as a peacemaker and get the group back for Dundee United this weekend, and ahead of the fixture, they have released a new statement.

Green Brigade confirm they won’t be at Celtic vs Dundee United

During their absence, the club have placed covers over the section where the Green Brigade would usually be.

The atmosphere has taken an obvious knock but despite O’Neill’s best efforts, the group have confirmed that they won’t be in attendance after a lack of dialogue from interim chairman Brian Wilson.

In a post on social media, they said: “Despite comments on ;unity within the stadium’ from Celtic Chairman Brian Wilson, and an open letter from the @CFC_Collective to Wilson seeking dialogue, the Green Brigade remains banned for tomorrow’s match and no dialogue has been forthcoming.”

Celtic aren’t helping themselves

Another game week goes by and it will be another one without a section of the fanbase.

One thing that separates the Hoops from anyone else is the level of support.

Should Celtic lift the bans on the Green Brigade and Fan Media? Let us know in the comments.

Bhoys Celtic call on the board to end the Parkhead bans.

Rain or shine, people turn up in their thousands and back the players. However, ostracising one section of the fanbase has led to noise levels quieting down significantly and frankly, it needs to stop.

This needs to end and everyone needs to find a way that the most active support in the stands are able to return.
