Celtic fan group The Green Brigade arrived in their numbers as the Hoops' women's team squared-off with Glasgow rivals Rangers in the SWPL this afternoon.
Hoops fans watched their men's first-team dismantle St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership yesterday but seemingly hadn't satisfied their need for football this week.
So scores of Green Brigade members travelled to K-Park in East Kilbride to take in the derby match.
And they brought with them flags and banners.

A picture emerging on social media earlier this afternoon showed supporters packed into the stands.
Other Hoops fans praised them for showing up to support the women's team.
One said: "Fair play to supporting hope it ends well".
Another commented: "More support and atmosphere?"
A third simply wrote: "Hail Hail."

But not everyone was happy to see the Green Brigade - and made their feelings known.
One person wrote: "That's not good. Women's football does not need it."
Celtic Women ran out 3-1 winners thanks to goals from Kathleen McGovern, Sarah Ewens and Kelly Clark.
Brogan Hay netted a consolation goal for Gregory Vignal's Rangers outfit.
