Celtic take on Red Star Belgrade tonight in the opening game of this seasons Europa League campaign. All the dreams of playing in this seasons Champions League have now faded into the memory of another qualifier that didn’t go to plan.
On Sunday Celtic fans continued to protest about the current Celtic board at Firhill and highlighted the failures to qualify for Europes Elite competition over numerous seasons because of lack of ambition in the board room.
It was a very comfortable win on Sunday for Celtic. A 4-0 win to set up a League Cup semi-final against the rangers who beat Hibs 2-0 at Ibrox to ease a little bit of the pressure off their managar Russell Martin. The rangers poor league start has left them second from bottom going into this weekends SPFL fixtures.
The Celtic fans group will now go under the one Umbrella called Celtic Fans Collective as they continue to put pressure on the current Celtic board. They have been invited to a meeting with the board to discuss Policing of the Glasgow Derby game back in March.Below is the response from the group.
