SPFL ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING SEMI-FINAL TICKETS

St Johnstone FC has today received the following statement from the SPFL with regard to the ticketing for Saturday’s League Cup semi-final against Hibernian FC at Tynecastle.

“Following discussions with safety and security staff at Tynecastle Stadium and on the advice of Police Scotland, the SPFL has agreed that it will be unable to release tickets in Section N Upper of the Main Stand at Tynecastle Stadium to supporters of St Johnstone FC.

This advice has been provided for safety and security reasons and considers the available access and egress routes to and from Section N and the need to ensure segregation of supporters.

Rather than leave Section N Upper unused the tickets have now been released to Hibernian FC for sale to their supporters.”

St Johnstone FC fully understands and shares the disappointment this outcome will cause ticketless supporters and will provide a response in due course.
