One Ibrox fan will never be able to forget a decade of misery looking in on Celtic stacking up the trophies including an unprecedented Quadruple Treble.

Following 32 matches of unprecedented honest mistakes and medical miracles the SPFL title was clinched last Sunday setting off scenes of mayhem and carnage at George Square and beyond.

For one fan the moment was just too much to let slip by as he decided on a bizarre tattoo showing the silhouette of a bandy legged supporter with his favourite puppet.

Starting off in 1952, 60 years before Charles Green formed his football club, Sooty and Sweep were children’s favourites for generations, brought to life by puppeteer Harry Corbett.

Sooty (the yellow puppet) tended to be the star of the show with Sweep (grey and black) very much the support act.

Fortunately Tattoo Artists remain closed as part of Lockdown Rules which clearly apply selectively for certain sections of society.
