Hampden's Olympic tickets blow

THOUSANDS more tickets for Olympics football events in Scotland will be handed out after organisers failed to sell more than half of the allocation with just weeks to go.

Around 30,000 tickets have already been donated to schools and sports clubs as part of a ticketshare scheme, but the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (Locog) yesterday confirmed that more are to be handed out.
