Celtic have announced that tickets for the upcoming away games at both Kilmarnock and St. Johnstone have sold out.
Neil Lennon takes his side to Ayrshire next Wednesday while Perth will be the venue a week later as we aim to stay top of the Premiership.
And the Bhoys will be backed by big away supports in both midweek fixtures after the club announced a double sell-out on Friday.
The Hoops faithful will occupy three of the four stands at McDiarmid Park after St. Johnstone gave us an extra allocation for the fixture.
Conversely, Kilmarnock have reduced our following from two stands to one – although an “additional allocation” was received on Friday morning.
But all away tickets have now been sold for both fixtures with many Celtic fans still unable to buy a brief.
Celtic set for evening kick-off away run
A strange turn in the fixture calendar means that four of our next six away games will come during the week.
As well as going to Kilmarnock and St. Johnstone for 7:45pm kick-offs, we also face Motherwell and Livingston in the evening over the next couple of months.
It’s a bizarre run of fixtures but one that is unlikely to faze Neil Lennon’s men too much.
It’s impossible to tell whether travelling away from home for evening kick-offs is any different to doing so for afternoon games.
There is definitely an extra sparkle in the air for games under the lights but that applies to both teams and both sets of supporters.
It’s a strange run of kick-offs on the road but it isn’t likely to deter the Celtic support from travelling to support the team.
Expect a few more away sell-outs between now and the end of the season.
