Livingston troll Celtic ahead of Parkhead clash as mischievous statement goes viral
David Martindale's newly-promoted side make the trip to Celtic Park next week Mischievous Livingston have gone viral after taking a playful swipe at Celtic's infamous away end. David Martindale's newly-promoted side face a daunting trip to Glasgow's east end on Premiership duty next Saturday. And their social media team couldn't resist a dig when announcing ticket details on Thursday. Posting on X, Livi used an image from behind the infamous steel pillar that gives a restricted view from the away corner at Parkhead - a sight rival fans know all too well. Many a punter have shelled out for tickets only to find themselves sat behind it with a limited view of the pitch. The tongue-in-cheek post went down a storm online and has been shared hundreds of times, racking up almost 200,000 views. A second punter wrote: "That'll be 1-0 to Livingston, even before KO!" While a third added: "Top work Livi admin. All the bites here are incredible." Even supporters with green-tinted glasses saw the funny side: "As a Celtic fan I can appreciate the dig here but just tilt yer heed will ye!" Another teased: "Better off sitting behind the pillar so you can't see the 6-0 tanking incoming."
