Celtic fans have been lapping up the poverty of Sevco’s sunshine training camp in Spain.

The gags started when Josh Windass was pictured wearing his travel cushion ARRIVING at Glasgow Airport ahead of the brutal 6.30am flight to Malaga.

Despite the gloss being put on the training facilities the reality has been somewhat different with the base being used by the third best in Scotland best described as basic.

Pictures of an £11m striker arriving at training in a golf buggy have been matched by players ‘enjoying’ ice baths in wheelie bins while Gerrard looks on helplessly from a park bench cut into the hillside.

Just over a decade ago this time of year would be full of stories about top stars snubbing offers from top clubs to ‘jet in’ to sign on after a quick-fire trip to the state-of-the-art Murray Park training complex.

With Lucas Levia and Jermaine Defoe being replaced by Umar Sadiq and Lassana Coulibaly coming in on loan there is plenty of mileage left in the Banter Years.
