A Celtic fan left without a ticket for Sunday’s Old Firm clash against Rangers claims to have applied for a Kiosk Assistant job at Ibrox and hid in a toilet cubicle just to watch the game.
The supporter came up with a devious plan to gain access to the stadium by turning up for his shift on the morning of the match.
