Video: Heartwarming moment elderly Celtic fan is surprised with Scottish Cup Final ticket

Celtic face Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup Final on Saturday afternoon. In the run up to the game, competition sponsors Scottish Gas have been awarding some devoted supporters a memorable Cup Final experience.

In a video posted on Friday afternoon, 94-year-old Frank was surprised by Charlie Mulgrew at his home to invite him to the Cup Final thanks to Scottish Gas.

Frank has been a season ticket holder for over 70 years, going with his wife – who recently passed away. Due to her passing, he’s not been able to go as much recently but he was beaming when he found out he’d be going to the game.

Hopefully it will be a memorable afternoon for Frank as he returns to Hampden.
