Green Brigade continue Celtic manager protest as Dermot Desmond next in line for scathing banner

The Green Brigade have staged a second protest in two days outside Celtic Park as their ire turned towards Dermot Desmond.

Retiring chief-executive Peter Lawwell was the Ultras group's focus on Friday as the club reached 100 days without a manager.

The search to replace Neil Lennon has become a protracted one, with Yokohama F. Marinos boss Ange Postecoglou now the frontrunner after talks with Eddie Howe broke down.

Green Brigade members again voiced their anger on day 101, replacing Lawwell with principal shareholder Desmond in a similar banner on Saturday morning.

The group were scathing in their criticism of the Celtic's hierarchy last season and concerns are mounting among the wider support over the club's plan to rebuild.

In 2020/21, the Parkhead side failed to qualify for the Champions League, finished bottom of their Europa League group, crashed out of both domestic cups early and surrendered their Premiership crown - and 10 In A Row dream - to Rangers by a margin of 25 points.
