Hibs have announced that the South Stand which normally only seats supporters of the opposition teams is now open for home ticket sales ahead of Saturday’s Ladbrokes Premiership opener with Partick Thistle.

Excited Hibs’ fans have been buying in numbers ahead of ‘flag day’, with the West, East and Famous Five Stands now effectively sold out.

A small number of restricted view seats remain which the club  expect to sell over the course of Friday.

South Stand tickets are now available, and the club have urged supporters to purchase early to avoid missing out.

An update on matchday sales arrangements will appear on the club website later today..
