Evan Easton had a more eventful day than anyone else at Pittodrie yesterday.
It is an early start to travel to Aberdeen for a 12 noon kick off with most fans on the road north by 8am yesterday.
Three points always makes the journey home a little easier but for young Easton there was an even bigger reward when he got home.

On Wednesday night Celtic’s B team face The Spartans at the Penny Cars Stadium in Airdrie with young Easton swapping his scarf for a pair of boots and a team talk from Tommy McIntyre.
The Lowland League has proved to be very testing for the young Celts, other than a 10-0 win away to Vale of Leithen every match has been close with McIntyre’s side losing 1-0 to East Stirling last Friday.
With many of the squad eligible to play at u-18 level Easton will be familiar with most of the B Team squad, if he hits the ground running he could end up on the first team bench alongside Owen Moffat or Dane Murray rather than requiring a match ticket and supporters bus to cheer on the team.
