'I'm all for disco lights, imaginary hotels and signing Jack Hendry for a laugh but this crosses the line' - Fans react to Celtic using TiKToK to announce Patryk Klimala
A short video was posted on the club's brand new account featuring Hoopy the Huddle Hound "announcing" the new signing.
However, supporters weren't best pleased at the club's left-field method of confirming the arrival of the Polish player on a four-and-a-half-year deal.
