Korean pop stars who mistakenly wore Glasgow Rangers strips after confusing the club with a US baseball team have made a visit to Ibrox.
STAYC, pronounced Stacey, wore the famous light blue strip during a performance in Dallas, in the US last month, thinking it was a kit worn by the Texas Rangers baseball team - delighting fans across the internet.

Members of the band thanked the crowd for visiting them in what was their first trip to Scotland.
One member said: “This is our first time in Scotland and we are so happy right now. Are you guys fans of Rangers too?”
Another band member shouted: “We love Rangers!”
The crowd cheered and fans took photographs while the band posed in a custom-made Rangers FC strip, each with the number 23 and STAYC printed on the back.
