Originally published at: Green Brigade, fan groups respond to potentially controversial Celtic hire
Celtic fan groups, including the Green Brigade, have strongly responded to rumours surrounding the appointment of Bernard Higgins in a role at the club.

I agree the appointment is wrong. Happy to write to Celtic on this matter. The silent protest will not work on Saturday imo and I’d ask the GB to quickly rethink.

A pre match silent protest outside the ground for 10mins is more appropriate plus all fans against this appointment emailing the club. If it goes ahead action can be escalated. I am a big fan of the GB…but think again.
