The Green Brigade have backed a new national movement calling for better treatment of fans in Scottish football.
The statement accuses the media and authorities of creating a “moral panic” by targeting active supporter groups, while ignoring the colour and energy they bring to matches.
With the Green Brigade involved, Celtic fans are playing a central role in pushing for change. The Collective has outlined five main proposals: fairer ticket prices and away allocations, regular talks between clubs and fans, better access for disabled supporters, support for items that boost atmosphere like drums and banners, and a safer approach to pyro.

The Green Brigade have long been known for their displays at Celtic Park and away games. Items like drums, megaphones, and banners, often linked to the group, are among the tools they believe should be allowed in all grounds across the country.
Pyrotechnics are another key point. Instead of banning them, the Collective wants disposal bins installed at stadiums to reduce danger, a system already used in parts of Europe.
The Green Brigade’s disputes with football authorities are well known, but this move shows a shift toward working with governing bodies, while still demanding serious change.
The Collective includes fans from across the SPFL, especially in the Premiership and Championship. They’ve made it clear they want a voice in shaping the future of the game. Now it’s up to the SFA and SPFL to respond.
