Celtic fans plan late entry protest against board

Celtic fans will continue to demonstrate their dissatisfaction with the club’s board with a late entry protest at Kilmarnock on Sunday.

A substantial section of supporters remain angry about a lack of significant summer signings and failure to reach the Champions League has heightened pressure on those in charge at Celtic Park.

A lengthy club statement explaining recent recruitment was met with widespread derision and prompted an open letter from fans groups demanding answers for “repeated failures in transfer dealings”.

Those groups have since released a joint communication saying their concerns have “still to be addressed” despite the open letter “representing tens of thousands of Celtic fans”.

They cite a survey with 38,832 respondents and say there is an “overwhelming consensus” to back the following strategy.

With 10 points from four matches, Celtic sit top of the Scottish Premiership as they aim for a 14th title in 15 seasons.
