Two eagle-eyed fans have spotted Celtic players ‘moonlighting’ away from their day jobs.
International breaks can be a drag for most although it seems that Craig Gordon and Scott Sinclair used their time off wisely to explore Barcelona and Dubai with vans bearing their names spotted out on the streets.
A generation ago many full-time footballers would still have a side-line or trade to fall back on knowing that the career of a player can quickly be curtailed by injury. Former England defender Stuart Pearce used to have an advert in the Nottingham Forest programme offering his services as an electrician.

Scott Bain worked as a labourer as recently as six years ago when he was playing part-time for Alloa after being released by Aberdeen but gave it up when he was transferred to Dundee.
Craig Gordon does have a property related firm, 1 CSG Ltd in Edinburgh which is run by his parents.
