Pic: Hibernian’s response to Partick Thistle’s hideous new mascot is absolutely priceless

Hibernian FC’s Twitter account perfectly summed up the general consensus on Partick Thistle’s dreadful new mascot.

Thistle’s unveiled their new mascot today. Kingsley, who replaced the presumably friendlier-looking Jaggy McBee, is quite frankly an abomination.

The good people on social media seem to agree that the mascot designed by Turner Prize-nominated artist David Shrigley should have been killed with fire immediately after being created.

However, the best response to Kingsley the nightmare-haunting sun demon might have come from fellow Scottish outfit, Hibernian.

Hibs’ mascot Sunshine the Leith Lynx does not approve at all.
