Michael Nicholson broke his famed silence to attack Celtic fans and defend the integrity of who appears to be his most valued summer signing - Mark Hargreaves. A decorated police officer with 25 years service in an institutionally racist organisation, here's some more on Mark:

There is natural anger at this and expectation of comment from Celtic FC. Let us remind all that multiple children as young as this and younger were kettled by police on London Rd 8 months ago for 6 hours, denied access to water, food or toilets, with zero care from Celtic FC.

No matter how many decent results we put together there’s just gonny be no good feeling around the club at all this season due to these rodents ruining it at any chance they get. Get them to fuck.

Everytime there’s a bit of positivity around the club these bastards always find a way to ruin everything. I fucking despise them with every fibre in me. There’s genuinely not enough vocabulary in the dictionary to describe my hatred for these cunts

The Board of Celtic PLC last night launched a vicious and vindictive attack on the GB as an organisation and on two individual members. We give notice that their attempt to divide the Collective will not work. The Collective stands in solidarity with fans who have been banned.

This deserves ALOT of attention. A PR Twitter account made by Celtic to undermine the support and back the board? Holy fuck

As Palestinians, we are deeply troubled by reports that Celtic Football Club is close to completing a £2M deal for a player from Israeli club Maccabi Netanya. Celtic must stop this deal. This is not just an ordinary football transfer deal. Israeli clubs are not neutral sporting bodies.

Despite comments on "unity within the stadium" from Celtic Chairman Brian Wilson, and an open letter from the Celtic Fans Collective to Wilson seeking dialogue, the Green Brigade remains banned for tomorrow's match and no dialogue has been forthcoming.

Celtic fans with a pointed message to the club’s board today

“Those who talk about the club not having kicked on in Europe since 2003 ignore the enormous change in the financial landscape of football in that period. “It has created a gap which keeps growing and challenges any club playing in a smaller European League" Sack the board.

Green Brigade update to supporters: - banned since 7/11/2025 (19 matches) - internal attempts to resolve thwarted - Nicholson & Hargreaves relationship - Hargreaves' ultimatum

From Bologna to Nyon, and everywhere in between, Celtic supporters fund the expenses and salary of a man who has brought nothing but toxicity to the club and waged war on supporters who dedicate their lives to supporting Celtic. Mark Hargreaves' position is untenable.

Stand with the fans against the board. Nicholson's time is up. It is time for action to force this.

Boycott update.

Genuinely hoped and felt Sunday at Kille would’ve been a real galvanising point in the season but four days later, we get an utterly pathetic performance, fans still banned and the manager bashing fans and acting as a puppet for the rats in the boardroom.

Anyone who thinks banning a whole section of supporters who create any atmosphere in the stadium cos 1 guy got into an argument with a steward at a game last year needs their head examined

Presumably the fans also: Sold Kyogo & Idah & replaced them with a free agent striker after the window had closed Sold Kühn and never replaced him Didn’t sign anyone for CL qualifiers Spent £0 in January Played a fat wreck in goals who cannot stop any shots

This is worse than Barkas btw and it's not even close. Gross negligence to let him play another minute this season.

So much fucking media attention for 0.044% of the UK’s population. Well done for all falling for this right wing billionaire class distraction tactic while they increase their wealth to grotesque levels while we’re all fighting over this. We’re all doomed.

Following Messi's reception at the White House, it's worth remembering what Maradona stood for.
