Dressed in his training gear, the unexpected good Samaritan was seen helping out unlucky drivers in Lennoxtown, outside the club's training ground, by jogging down the snow-covered surface to lend a hand.

Another good Samaritan shared the moment when he spotted the Aussie manager, just as he was moving to help someone.

He tweeted: "Someone stuck in Lennoxtown I jump out to help and Big Ange came out as well before anyone. Man of the people."

Speaking to Sky Sports about his efforts Ange said: "I did help out, I think it was more motivation for the two young men and nice lady who were helping out. But being my size I can be helpful in that kind of scenario - so I did my bit."
