SCOTTISH legend Ally McCoist has claimed he saw a UFO flying above the flats in his hometown.
The former Rangers manager revealed he believes "it's all out there" as he recalled the experience during a hilarious segment on talkSPORT Breakfast with Laura Woods.
Coisty, who grew up in East Kilbride, told his co-host that something flew over him and it completely baffled him.
When asked by Woods if he had ever seen a flying saucer, he said: "Yes, flying over the flats at the top of Cleland Place – I swear to God, at the junction with Ramsey Hill and Cleland Place.
"I was kind of sleeping and I woke up and this thing flew over the top of the flats – I swear to God, I’m deadly serious.
"To this day I don’t know what it was – I'll never know what was going on. There was something going on – I believe in them."
“There was this thing flying over the flats.”

He added: "You have no idea the size of this place we’re living in.
"They found a thing the size of a sixpence, through this new telescope and I’m not winding you up – there are 10,000 suns in it.
"There are a billion new galaxies in this thing.
"I can’t remember the name of it – it's not the Hubble telescope, it's even stronger than that.
"It’s the size of a sixpence and they found 10,000 new suns.
"It’s all out there man."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
