Watch Sky Sports News read out completely made-up facts about Celtic’s Gibraltarian conquerors

These days, it's worth reminding yourself that just because you've seen something on the internet it doesn't always mean it's true.

Another reminder of this came on Wednesday morning as Sky Sports News HQ picked the bones out of Celtic's shock defeat to Gibraltarian champions, Lincoln Red Imps. Before an interview with former Celtic striker Andy Walker, presenter Mike Wedderburn opened by adding some context to the scale of the shock defeat. "Apparently, Celtic's opponents play on average to a crowd of around 28 and they don't have access to their pitch on Tuesday because it's used by the local metal detecting society," Wedderburn said. There's no denying that such stats are truly unbelievable. But then again they should be unbelievable... because they're absolute bollocks. Yet again, this is the work of the man behind the Twitter account @WeahsCousin (well worth a follow if you don't already) who, as we told you a few weeks back, is an absolute master at catching people out with his bogus quotes and stats. He sent the following tweet during Celtic's humiliating defeat in Gibraltar, ironically mocked up to look as though it had come from Sky Sports News HQ. Sure enough, the two 'stats' that were mentioned by Wedderburn both appear along other fictitious facts including how their manager only got the job because he won a competition. https://twitter.com/WeahsCousin/status/752964593220222976 Here's the moment they were read out live on air in all its glory... https://twitter.com/cfccod/status/753147761843896320
