The ultras group is banned from Celtic Park but chairman Brian Wilson recently revealed they would hold a meeting in a bid to improve relations. O'Neill said: “I think there's been some discussions of which I wasn't party to, but I think there's been some progress made.

“But, as I've been saying, the sooner there is unity at Celtic Park, the better for all concerned. I have no doubt that the crowd behind the goal on Sunday contributed greatly to us fighting back. No question.
