Celtic fans crowdfund £176,000 to pay UEFA Palestine flag fine

‘Supporters of Celtic FC, known as the Green Brigade, have donated £176,000 (US$220,000) to two Palestinian charities. The donation was crowdfunded in reaction to a UEFA fine over Celtic fans flying Palestinian flags at a match.
Although European football’s governing body UEFA forbids political displays at football matches, in August Celtic fans went on to fly a mass of Palestinian flags during the first leg of their Champions League play-off match against Israeli team Hapoel Be’er Sheva.
UEFA went on to fine the Scottish football club £8,619 ($10,700) for the fans’ display, which called for support of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.’
