Martin O'Neill believes the lifting of a suspension on the Green Brigade ultras group will provide Celtic with a significant boost. The group returned to Celtic Park following a period of absence due to a ban imposed by the club board. O'Neill stated the atmosphere generated by the supporters' group is essential for the team during the closing stages of the season, according to The Guardian.
Celtic currently lead the Scottish Premiership table as they enter the final fixtures of the campaign. The former manager noted that the energy from the standing section helps drive the players' performance levels. Per Sky Sports, the club had previously suspended the season tickets of group members following a series of disputes regarding stadium safety and conduct. The resolution of the stand-off allows the full vocal support to return for home matches. O'Neill concluded that having a united stadium is a vital factor in securing consecutive league trophies during a competitive title challenge.
