Celtic have confirmed they wrote a letter to their fans reminding them to wash before a game.

The intervention came after supporters complained about a fan with excessive body odour.

Season ticket holders in the main stand at Parkhead - where the smell was originally reported - received the letter from club officials.

Celtic's supporter liaison officer, John Paul Taylor wrote on Twitter: "I can exclusively reveal its genuine, dispatched at the request of incumbents within the locale."

His tweet has since been deleted.
