United report Celtic to SPL over ticket cash
Dundee United have reported Celtic to the Scottish Premier League for late payment of ticket monies for the recent match between the sides.
United claim they are owed in the region of 85,000 for tickets sold by the Glasgow club for the August 17 Tannadice clash.
SPL rules state payment must be made within 10 days of the match.
Although United have reported the champions, the club insist they have no reason to believe the money will not be paid.
"It is a routine matter," a United spokesman told PA Sport.
"We are sure the money will be paid by Celtic but it has gone outwith a certain time frame and therefore we are obliged to report it to the SPL."
Today's news comes in the wake of Celtic imposing a 5% handling charge for tickets sold by them to the Glasgow club's fans for away games.
Celtic and Glasgow rivals Rangers imposed the charges despite opposition from rival SPL clubs, including United.
