The Green Brigade have revealed plans for a second full stadium tifo as Celtic close in on back to back Premiership titles under Ange Postecoglou.
The Hoops lead rivals Rangers by 12 points at the league summit with just six games to play until the end of the campaign. The champions defeated their Old Firm rivals a couple of weeks back 3-2 to increase their advantage at the top with two in a row looming.
Before the season kicked-off the fan group launched a Tifo fund to help support the group's efforts throughout the season including the ambitious plan for two full stadium efforts. They raised nearly £30,000 after fees with just over £22,000 of that pot spent on the opening day of the season 'Flag Day' full stadium display. Since then nearly £9,000 has been spent on tifos with efforts against Real Madrid in the Champions League and Hampden noted.

The Green Brigade once again want to launch a full stadium display for the Hoops as party time looms but in order to do this they require similar funding. The group has thanked the continued backing of their fellow fans describing it is 'integral' to what they do.
A statement on Twitter read: "Before the season started, the Green Brigade launched a Tifo fund to support the group's tifo effort throughout the season, including an ambitious aim for two full stadium tifos.
"The fund raised a total of £29,674.53 (after fees) and £22,227.66 of that was spent on the 'Flag Day' full stadium tifo on the opening day of the season.
"Since then, a further £8,740,01 has been spent on tifos. This went towards the iconic 'Battle of the Bogside' tifo, the 'Back with a Bang' tifo v Real Madrid, and the 'Phoenix Rising' tifo at Hampden, amongst various other small scale actions and banners.
"As we approach the final stages of the season we are planning a second full stadium tifo. In order to produce another memorable display, we require similar funding which is why we are relaunching the Tifo Fund. In addition to this, and if necessary, we may hold a bucket collection at an upcoming match to ensure costs can be met.
"As always, the continued backing of the Celtic support is greatly appreciated and integral to what we do."
