IT turns out Oor Wullie’s not the only person who enjoys sitting on a bucket.
Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa was spotted perched on one during the weekend in the English side’s win over Stoke City.
And incredibly, the Championship club have received a number of sponsorship offers as a result.

According to the Daily Mail, a number of organisations have been in touch with the Yorkshire side about attaching their branding to the bucket.
It could be something for Oor Wullie to look into as an extra source of pocket money!
It is unclear whether or not the blue object is indeed a bucket or more of a stool.
But it’s caused fascination among football fans, and at a press conference today, Bielsa was asked about it.
Bemused, he said: “I’m surprised that people talk about it!”
The 63-year-old, known as a bit of an eccentric, seems to prefer the view from a bit lower down and is regularly seen resting on drinks coolers placed on the touchline.
