But some of those celebrations have annoyed a number of spectators and viewers watching on TVÂ as the travelling support unleashed all sorts of sounds and spectacles to announce their arrival in Stranraer.

Several flares and smoke canisters have been set off by Celtic fans before kick-off in the Scottish Cup game with Stranraer at Stair Park.

And it wasn’t met with particular approval.
These Celtic fans are morons… but they will benefit from the total ineptitude of Scotland's football authorities.

The game was delayed by a couple of minutes as a result and annoyance levels increased.
Celtic fans launching flares onto the pitch has delayed kick-off. Sheer stupidity.

Maybe they were just celebrating Carlton Cole’s full debut.
