Ticketless Celtic fan 'sneaks into' Ibrox by posing as kiosk assistant

A ticketless Celtic fan has claimed to have sneaked into Sunday's clash with Rangers by turning up for a shift as a kiosk worker before slipping into the away end.

The supporter revealed on Twitter that he applied for a job as a kiosk assistant to gain access to Ibrox.

But, after arriving, he escaped his duties and hid in the toilets until Celtic’s fans arrived. He then blended in with Hoops fans in the away end to watch his side’s 2-1 win, the Daily Record reports.

Twitter user @joem4d1n3 posted the story on Twitter:"Met a kid yesterday in ground who’d applied for a job as kiosk worker decked out head to toe in work gear and he’d to start at 9am.

“He got into ground to work he hid in toilets til Celtic fans got in then was bouncing about with us all day.”

The infiltrator then revealed himself.

A supporter who uses the handle @calanclarkk1 then laid claim to being the fan saying: "Hahahaha here I am m8. Feet are killing me wearing they shoes all day."

As proof, he then posted a picture of the application form for the role as a kiosk assistant at Ibrox and an image of himself in the away end, with the words: "Hahaha wit a day I had yesterday. League over."

Rangers took an early lead after three minutes, when Aaron Ramsey swept home, but goals from Tom Rogic and Cameron Carter-Vickers secured Celtic a crucial victory in the Premiership title race leaving them six points ahead with six games left.
