Celtic have made a surprise League Cup Final ticket announcement.
With 17 days to go until the match against Hibs at Hampden eligible Season Ticket holders who missed out on the ballot have until 2pm on Tuesday to claim a ticket.
The initial criteria were for members of the Home Cup Ticket Scheme who had bought a ticket for the semi-final against St Johnstone when Celtic had over 40,000 fans inside Hampden.
Cup Final: Tickets are now on sale to those STH who met the original criteria (on HCTS and purchased semi final) and were unsuccessful in the ballot.

It seems that some fans that qualified for a ticket haven’t taken up the option of going to the final.
Hibs have been given an increased allocation of 19,000 tickets for the match, once sponsors and other obligations are taken off Celtic will have been given between 25-30,000 tickets for the match.
After last season being played behind closed doors Celtic will have the chance to add to their run of seven cup final victories in front of fans in both domestic competitions.
That run was halted when Chris Jullien scored the only goal of the 2019 League Cup Final but a week on Sunday a very different looking Celtic side can resume that run.
