The Green Brigade has hilariously responded to Brendan Rodgers criticising the group’s Kieran Tierney chant at full-time on Sunday by singing a list of ex-Celtic players’ names tonight against Dundee United at Celtic Park.
The supporters group instead decided to sing almost every other ex-Celtic player’s song before singing the Tierney chant late in the game, in a tongue-in-cheek moment that was obviously not meant to be taken seriously by Rodgers.
It was a playful response, highlighting the group’s humour and their long-standing affection for the club’s legends.
Among the songs sung tonight at Celtic Park by the Green Brigade were the chants for Henrik Larsson and Scott Sinclair.
There was also the chant for Paddy McCourt, followed by those for Stuart Armstrong and Aaron Mooy, along with the familiar song for Mikael Lustig.
The chant for Charlie Mulgrew made an appearance, as did the one for Massimo Donati, with Jimmy Johnstone also receiving tribute, alongside the likes of Odsonne Édouard, Jota and former manager Martin O’Neill.
It was a night filled with nostalgia, as the Green Brigade paid tribute to a host of Celtic heroes from the past.
Rodgers likely noticed the group’s decision to sing so many ex-players’ songs, but those who were at the game or watching at home were left laughing at the hilarious choice made by the Green Brigade to pay tribute to so many former Celtic players.
