Celtic brought a young and very capable team down to Shielfield on Sunday July 27th and beat 'Gary's' Berwick Rangers XI by a second half goal from the very impressive James Keeting. A good crowd of close to 600 enjoyed a very competitive game in which Gary produced a number of fine saves before he left the field after 80 minutes to a standing ovation. At the end of the match Gary was presented with The Berwick Rangers Supporters Trust Player of the Year Award for 2007-08 which was a very fitting way for him to finish off what was a magnificent day for him. The Testimonial Committee are very grateful to John McLaughlan, Chris McCart, Stevie Woods, Miodrag Krivokapic and all the Celtic FC players for travelling down to Berwick and participating in the match in a most fantastic spirit.

The Green Brigade certainly added to the atmosphere at this game, cheers to all the Celtic fans who turned up it was appreciated. Good luck Gary O you'll be missed.

they don't have any faces!

Is the banner supposed to be upside down?

Nice photies, no sure about the smoke

thats not smoke it's their irishness spores infecting the area with irishness and stuff. there will be a waxy o'connors funtime pub in Berwick within a week.

Spreading happiness whereever we go

I was being serious, is that some kind of fashion thing?

I've said before I quite like some of the Green Brigade displays. The banner they made when Benfica came was awesome.

Sorry I thought you were joking given it has been the subject of much talk in the past.
It was put upside down upon the appointment of John Reid and remains so.

now this is the story all about how j reid flip-turned the banner upside down

was at the game, must say it was rather amusing, when the celtic fans started playing follow the linesman. Also gary gary geez a wave was very comical too...

It's a homage to some of our founding fathers who were Australians

Like an emergency flag, got it.

And I hadn't seen it discussed before

I did a similar thing with the Second Division league table last season

I actually think the Green Brigade are great, and they really remind me of the Ultras you see in Italy and places, which I think is the look they're going for.

I like how that bunch of rhejects have blanked out their faces, like they're trying to give the impression of being dodgy characters or something.

Their politics is slightly controversial and cyberspace is dangerous.

So's Berwick for that matter

I know someone who was run down by a horse

ach well keeps the manufacturers of Irish kitsch in employment I spose.

To be sure,































































to be sure

i was always hoping for a surge in Scottish theme pubs as I have a garage with old mcewans export bar towels and giant rothmans ashtrays from my dads boozer....never panned out though....still you never know once we are independent the celtic lion might export shitty pubs around the globe and i'm quids in

If yer looking for someone to provide the genuine half eaten Kabab and sick in the toilet, geeze a shout, I can also do a cheap back of the head punch if the target is wee enough, a lady would be preferred

They are a group of supporters who are not who have been targeted, harassed, intimidated and treated disgracefully by the club. The less they know about them the better. Also of course, there are some nutcases out there on the internet sadly.

Yep.

what other than their season book number, home address and bank details....I feel that horse may well have bolted.

You don’t tick a box saying you are a Green Brigade member when you fill in your application form.

no but helpfully for Herr Reid they all wear t-shirts and stand behind a giant banner proclaiming their allegiance.

Maybe they use subterfuge and sit in each others registered seats to confuse he authorities

There isn’t a Green Brigade section at Celtic Park unfortunately.

really.......thats a bit odd......thought that was the whole point that you were all in the same section.......... come to broomfield if you want theres lots of space.

The Green Brigade aren’t recognised by the club other than targeting members of it. The Jungle Bhoys are the group who have the official backing. A pocket of Green Brigade sit near each other at Celtic Park and others come from elsewhere to join them during games.

I think those pics are great and exactly what should be seen on the terraces. It's a shame more clubs don't have fans like 'ultras'. The Green Brigade are the best in Scotland IMO, better than the Red Ultras, the GB seem to have a better mentality.

I agree, it's was good to see them at Berwick they certainly enhanced the atmosphere and i'm sure Gary O appreciated their presence.

I heard there are pictures of Celtic fans on that Redwatch site?

Ever heard of Redwatch?

I imagine that's why they'd cover their faces.

judging by old antics i'd say so

Eh? Explain please

Edit:- dont bother I've just found it on the net, what an unpleasant site

Basically it's a site run by neo-Nazis that hosts pictures and adresses of political opponents. I don't know if they were Green Brigade folk or not, but there was a picture of some guys with a "Celtic fans against fascism" banner posted on it.

Thanks...just had a look at the "pictures" section, all very unsavoury

I know, apparently it's been linked to stabbings, assaults ect. They guy who runs it is a small balding Nazi who likes dressing up like action man and wearing armbands.

Clichéd or what - that could almost have been taken straight from American History X

Invariably these are people with mental problems

my old lecturer from stow college is in a couple of they pics

It traditional for the mad old teacher to be a red I did a few night classes at Stow in my day

They've got pictures from 20 years ago in a kind of "where are they now?" section. How pathetic

Could be classed as sinister

It's undoubtable that the site has sinister intentions. It has no other purpose other than putting people in danger.

I would have thought that a person flagged on that site could complain and have the site shut relatively easily
