HeartOfMidlothian93 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Although I know that the club hasn?t released any information about the derby for next month, I?ve been thinking about how many LP?s are going to be needed to make the game at Easter Road. I?m currently sitting on 51 and worried that I may miss the threshold.... Anyone have any idea or guesstimate about how many will be needed?

Haken Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I predict it'll be 65+ and that folk will be pleading for spare reference numbers as an alternative to actually going to away games and building up their own stack of points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannibal Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Given it was 65 points and above for the 900-1000 ibrox tickets last month and we get 3800? ish for ER. Factor in all the away points since and i still think you should be fine on 51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboJen Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I predict it'll be 65+ and that folk will be pleading for spare reference numbers as an alternative to actually going to away games and building up their own stack of points. harsh but fair. Ibrox was 65 points initially for 900 tickets. We'll have 5 away matches between then and Hibs, although not all have given loyalty points. Given that there's 2000+ regularly going to away matches this season, if you've not been to a few you don't stand a very good chance of tickets. At best 51 points will get you in at the very end of the sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping that I?ll just get it by the skin of my teeth! Living down in London means that getting to games isn?t as easy as it used to be unfortunately!

jambo1975 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 You also have to have to factor in demand. A lot more people will want to/be able to, go to easter road. I have 54 and feel i will be watching on the telly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny1874 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 For those worried about loyalty points and just missing out, the Dundee game which is on sale is offering 3 LPs and if the Ross County game goes on sale before the derby that will be another 5 LPs. I'm planning to go to both and get my LPs up to 66. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambof3tornado Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I think 65 plus 1st dibs to make sure us PHM get tickets before the riff raff. This thread wouldnt be here if cathro was still in place. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsimp77 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 On 49 right now, will hopefully be on 54 if Ross County isn?t a cash gate, so I?m just praying it?s 50+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartOfMidlothian93 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Turns out I actually had 56, and just bought a ticket to Dundee away so that'll take me to 59...praying that's enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol1874 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Not sure it will be as high as people think. We're looking for a number that only around 3500 people will have. Our away support isn't that number regularly and the points were all dropped at the start of the season. I have 105, one of my sons has 75 and the other one, who started going to games last season, has 48. I'm hoping we'll all be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorgieRules22 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 The games on a Tuesday night and live on telly. We get 3800 tickets so in my opinion if you want a ticket and have anything from 50 points upwards you'll get a ticket. The past few years we have never sold out in the first phase.

luckydug Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Away supports have been very good this season. That could push the threshold up for the Hibs game. Any less than 65 will be watching the match on TV imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our crowds away from home were pretty poor last year and your only talking a few points here or there on offer up to now for this season, infact none for Motherwell so it won't be as high as people think.

Sexton Hardcastle Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Mind after the debacles of last season plenty folk stating they will never return to Easter road let alone another away game.

loveofthegame Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Sitting on 60. I've not missed first phase ever, always managing to secure seats in middle of the lower tier. I have absolutely no doubt I'll find myself sitting there in a few weeks time. Can't make Saturday but will be at Dundee and if we're still on form will make the trip up to Ross County too I suspect. Bring on the Hibees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any less than 65 will be watching the match on TV imo. I don't think it'll be that high but I think there'll be a lot of people in the mid 50s, so possibly somewhere around 58/59. 40 points for STs the last two seasons plus all the home cup/European games will be close enough to 50 points without any away matches, so it doesn't take many away matches to push it up.

Texia Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I?m on about 65, that was the threshold for Rangers so i assume that it?ll be around that for hibs as there will be an increased capacity but more demand.

Morgaro Gomis Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'd agree that the threshold will be about 65 to begin with, but I reckon it'll be about 50 at phase 2, so most should be okay.

GorgieRules22 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Never missed a game at Easter Road in about 25 years. Never done much away travel last season apart from St Johnstone and Hibs away so sitting on 57 points. Hoping that should be enough with the game being midweek and on tv.

Mild fist pump from me every time Celtic score. Not as big a pump as the 2013 SC final but a fist pump nonetheless. Followed by a right good scrub.
