Peterhead FC take on Rangers in the final of the Scottish Challenge Cup on Sunday, 10 April at Hampden Park and as excitement builds in the town, local shops are throwing their weight being the League One side. Shop windows are being adorned with scarves, bunting, rosettes, footballs, the team’s kit and photographs of the team as cup final fever hits.
The Blue Toon’s appearance in the Petrofac Training Cup final will be its first in a national cup final and has been 125 years in the making. Football fans are being encouraged to make the trip to Glasgow to cheer on the side and witness history being made. It will also be the only opportunity to watch a north-east side play in a national senior cup final this season.
Tickets for the final are priced at £20 for adults, £10 for concessions and £5 for under-16s and can be purchased from Peterhead FC. The club hopes to take more than 3,000 fans to the final and to help them make the journey south the club has arranged for 14 official supporters’ buses to travel to Glasgow on the day. Bus tickets cost £10 per person and can also be purchased from the club. Buses will pick-up in Ellon and Aberdeen en-route from Peterhead
