As the Scottish football season approaches its climax, excitement is mounting among Celtic fans following the completion of the ticket ballot for the upcoming Scottish Cup final against Rangers.
The match is scheduled for May 25th at Hampden Park, where Celtic could potentially be aiming to secure a domestic double, if they clinch the league title beforehand.
Last year, Celtic triumphed in the Scottish Cup, defeating Inverness in the final. This year, the stakes are even higher with the Glasgow Derby determining who lifts the trophy.
Tickets for this match are exceptionally sought after, given that Celtic and Rangers each receive 50% of the stadium’s allocation. For Celtic, this amounts to about 20,000 tickets, underscoring the high demand and limited availability.
The process of allocating tickets through a ballot ensures a fair distribution among the club’s members, who have now been notified if they were successful in securing a spot to watch the game live.
This system, while necessary, often leaves many fans anxious as they wait to find out if they will be among those attending one of the most anticipated fixtures of the Scottish football calendar.
