Celtic’s decision to allow Liverpool fan media access to a Celtic player while their ban on Celtic fan media continues shows their utter contempt for not just those supporters involved in creating fan media content but all Celtic supporters…

Post split around 2000 fans of the Rangers will descent on Celtic Park for what could be a pivotal match in the Scottish Premiership season. The Union Bears will be there in force, with their banners, tifos and their sectarian and racist songbook. The Celtic Board will welcome them with open arms then hush up the damage that they’ll cause in the stadium. That’s what they always do.
The Green Brigade, or more accurately the 200 odd supporters who were selective for the Celtic Board’s vindictive punishment will remain banned from the stadium, unable to access their seats which have all been paid for by supporters some of whom are in their 70s and have supported the club home and away all their lives.
Not a penny has been returned in refunds meaning that the Celtic Fans Collective are not the only ones running a not another penny campaign.
There’s a lovely chap on our supporters bus. He is I’d estimate in his seventies. His name is Brian, he does the raffle on our bus and his seat is in the North Curve as it was before it became a standing area. The last game he attended with Stuttgart away but he’s banned from Celtic Park. The bus usually has spares, folk on holiday and so on, so he could easily have attended games at Celtic Park but he will not do so until the ban is lifted on all the supporters punished by a club still holding their season ticket money despite denying them the access that they paid for.
Stuttgart supporters were wonderful at Celtic Park but they were also slightly underwhelmed by the atmosphere at Paradise, a hitherto unique selling point for Celtic. They should have been at the Roma game in December!
Those Stuttgart fans wanted to display a tifo which was pointing to their hoped for travels on the road to Istanbul. Our old friends Porto put those hopes to bed in the Europa League round of 16, but it was still a fine tifo from the German fans.
There’s no chance of getting permission for a Celtic tifo at Celtic Park from a board still milking the stadium wide tifo from the Green Brigade on the night Barcelona were beaten in November 2012.
The Celtic fan media sites, like The Celtic Star and many others, won’t be in the least bit surprised by the club sanctioning Liverpool fan media access while banning our own fan media outlets. It’s just yet another example of what’s wrong with Celtic. The quicker there’s change the better.
If and when the ban is lifted we’ll not be going back until there’s a two way conversation and an agreement on rules and responsibilities from both sides. To be clear the fan media didn’t do anything wrong here.
The ban imposed by Iain Jamieson, Head of Celtic PR, was simply put in place to shut down awkward questions. We had been asking Brendan Rodgers about transfer business concerns in the early weeks of the season and he was answering the questions professionally but off message from his enemies within the club.
The result he got ‘exited’ and the Celtic fan media got banned. Here’s some of the reaction to the Celtic decision to allow access to Liverpool fan media while banning their own supporters.
It’s not right that fan scrutiny is crushed by the club.There should be fair transparency and open communications. Unfortunately, our dictatorship won’t allow that ,and it is a poor look for the club in general.

Wanted to wait until I was sure who they were speaking to but what other Celtic fan media have said is quite correct.
Crazy that Celtic would limit access to players from their own fan media but let those of other clubs get this kind of opportunity.
Makes no sense. https://t.co/Pa6DzXxoYg

This is either tone dead or deliberately provocative from @CelticFC.
There is no way they don’t see the issue with banning Celtic fan media but allowing that of another club in to make content. Another example of the board’s distain for our fans.
Nicholson has to go. https://t.co/5YepcRO0Wf

To be clear, @CelticFC …
– You allowed Stuttgart fans in to display a tifo, whilst the Green Brigade were unfairly subject to collective punishment; and
– You allowed Liverpool fan media access to a Celtic player, whilst Celtic fan media are banned?
Fuckin ‘unity’ they said. https://t.co/pgcNsvMKC1 pic.twitter.com/2ZI4TZ1VXR

This interview demonstrates how @CelticFC aren’t really good at optics. Banning its own fan media while allowing this interview going ahead. I’d be expecting resignations from the club but sadly theyll have the ear muffs on going la la la. So much for Wilsons recent statements https://t.co/f51WgGjIj1

Michael Nicholson giving the green light to @TheAnfieldWrap to come in and interview Oxlade-Chamberlain whilst keeping our own fan media out is a disgrace.
Not surprising obviously. But still, absolutely shameful and yet another reason folk should be chased out that Board Room.

Allowing other team’s fan media in to interview players while our own fan media is banned is just a terrible look for the club.
Those that run the club should be embarrassed with how they’ve handled themselves this season https://t.co/VsOi8zvZrr
