The Dons have sold just over 9,000 tickets for the semi-final against Rangers.

The Scottish Professional Football League have taken back Betfred Cup semi-final tickets from Aberdeen following slow sales.

The Pittodrie club were given 20,300 tickets for the last-four game against Rangers at Hampden Park on Sunday, October 28.

However, with the Red Army taking up just over 9,000 tickets so far, the Dons’ allocation has been cut to less than 15,000.

Aberdeen released a statement  on their official website which read: “With just over a week to go until our Betfred Cup semi-final against Rangers at Hampden Park just over 9,000 tickets have been sold to the Red Army.

“Despite strong initial sales, particularly from our supporters’ clubs, overall ticket sales for the match have fallen short of the demand expected.

“Given current sales figures, with the SPFL recording less than 100 being sold by Aberdeen FC today, the SPFL have now taken back certain sections of the east stand.

“In return, the SPFL will issue the club with an additional allocation of seats in the south stand upper and lower tickets.

“This will necessitate the relocation of some supporters to alternative seats and the club will be in touch with any affected fans to finalise arrangements.

“With 5,500 tickets still available for our supporters, and access to a further allocation if we demonstrate additional demand in the next few days, the focus now quickly turns to building on the tickets that have been sold to fulfil the remainder of our allocation and ensure that the team walk out to a wall of noise from Dons supporters in attendance.”
