The Green Brigade and Bhoys Celtic have delivered a defiant message to the players and staff as they prepare to head off ahead of the Glasgow Derby.

With supporters converging on Celtic Park before Brendan Rodgers takes his side to a hotel for their final pre-match preparations before facing Rangers tomorrow, the supporters groups unveiled a banner to the arriving players.

Celtic go into the game one point clear of Rangers but Philippe Clement’s side have a game in hand – midweek against Dundee. Whilst Brendan stated that he didn’t believe defeat would be fatal to his side’s title hopes, it would take it out of Celtic’s hands.

Celtic must avoid defeat and put the pressure on Rangers in the final stretch of the season. For the first time this season, the manager has a full team to pick from and he will be hoping for a result in the fixture he has an excellent record in.
