Oostende have wished 'Space Cadet' Jack Hendry a Happy Birthday following his dressing room fallout with teammate Ari Freyr Skulason.
The on-loan Celtic defender went viral when footage emerged from inside the changing room as he had a heated debate with Skulason over a goal conceded in stoppage time against Standard Liege.
Skulason was furious at Hendry for failing to keep the ball out of the net from the front post, but the Scot snapped back insisting it was not his fault, branding the Icelandic ace a "f***ing Space Cadet".
Happy birthday 'Space Cadet' @Jack_Hendry2 ! 😃😉

Wat wens jij hem toe? 💚❤️💛Wij alvast dat hij zondag kan meespelen in #kvmkvo na de donkerrode overtreding van Carcela 😉 pic.twitter.com/idLyfnPie3
He was livid himself that Skulason allowed the ball to come into the box instead of cutting out the cross as the argument ensued.
The Belgian outfit saw the funny side with their social media post on Hendry's 26th birthday today, poking fun at the moment. A tweet in celebration read: "Happy birthday 'Space Cadet' @Jack_Hendry2 - What do you wish for him? We already know that he can play in on Sunday #kvmkvo after Carcela's dark red foul."
The foul they referenced came last week when he was forced off following a horror challenge by Standard's Mehdi Carcela.
