Celtic fan gets European dates wrong, flies to Norway one week early

A Europa League fixture mix-up saw one Celtic fan fly to Norway a week before his side's meeting with Molde.

The Hoops head to Scandinavia next Thursday for their latest Group A outing in Europe's secondary competition.

However, a Celtic supporter known only as 'Liam' thought that each fixture was played on a fortnightly basis, so set off for his travels earlier this week.

It was only after a text discussion with a friend that the red-faced fan realised his error, giving him plenty of time to sample the local culture before the match on October 22.
