Hi everyone, as you can probably guess I'm a Celtic fan and as had been pointed out, ourselves and a few others have been doing GREQUES (that's the proper name for it!) for a good while now. You might be interested to know it's not just us, yourselves and Lech who do it, it's pretty common place throughout Europe. Have a look at this thread -

Loads of pics there of fans doing the, ahem 'Poznan'

You've had excellent fixtures in terms of fan support this season, Aris and Lech are 2 of the best in my opinion, so I'm glad you're adapting grecques and hope to see a more European style of support from your fans in the future.

Hmm, you sure? First time I saw them doing it was last month. Are you not thinking of "the bouncy" - if so, that's very different.

Rangers do the bouncy.
Celtic do the huddle.

Guys this thread is getting quite embarrassing for a number of reasons. There seems to be a mix up about the origin of this celebration.

Celtic fans have been doing this celebration, The Huddle, since 2006. As someone said previously it is in honour of the Teams pre-match Huddle started by Tony Mowbray in the 1990s. They chant "Lets all do the Huddle" accompanies it.

A quick search of this lyric on youtube will provide all the evidence you need. I glanced breifly and saw a Huddle from a pre-season game at Newcastle in 2007.

It was started by the Ultras group the Green Brigade and no matter what I or you think of them that is the FACT. They have done at Celtic park for some time but the party atmosphere generated by thumping The Huns 3-0 allowed the rest of the support to join in a mocking of The Manky Mob.

It is laughable that City fans are crying "copycat" when they themselves copied it from Poznan.

Hope this has cleared up the misunderstanding ladies. Rant over.

This covers it for me, and also, have to laugh at you's calling it the Poznan for fuck sake.
