“Do you know what I did? And I’m not joking," McCoist told talkSPORT Breakfast show co-host Laura Woods.
“I just about spent the entire day on the phone and emails trying to get tickets for the Europa League final in Seville.
“I was emailing people at Uefa that I’ve never met before offering my services.
“I was prostituting myself to Europe and Uefa! Anything they wanted off me.
“I’d cook them breakfast, I would do their ironing. I’m happy to make a payment and do a chore of their choice.
“Ironing is my least favourite chore so the fact I’m offering that shows how much I want them. I’m terrible at doing collars.
“But I’ve not heard back from anyone at Uefa.
“You think I’m joking but I’ve tried everybody. I’m actually quite angry about it.

“Before I start slaughtering them, the rest are going to the people I’m trying to get the tickets off!
“So that’s why I’m going easy on them. But see if I don’t get any? Wait until you hear me the following morning.”
