FarmerTweedy Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 1 hour ago, All Out Attack said: Reality check required here. As long as we have empty seats in Tynecastle, we are losing money. More than anyone, kids also tend to spend a fortune on food and drink at the games which is also being lost. Believe it or not, everthing the club does, is not automatically the best way and needs defended. Sometimes, there are better ways to do things. Filling your stadium with the next generation, like Hibs are doing, is one of them. More importantly, if kids don't come to Tynecastle at a young age, they could end up veering to the dark side, then we could lose them for life. Before you go raving about how good kids prices are, Hearts also treat 15 and 16 year olds as if they are in employment. This is pretty distasteful and the bigger stadium means the is simply no reason to do this anymore. Little bit vision is required sometimes for a longer term view. Utter shite! Hearts offer excellent prices. Just because we might not have the very cheapest prices, it doesn't mean they're the wrong prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both entitled to a 50:50 split and we hammered them both on and off the park in 2006 and 2012. They have never beaten us at Hampden and won't be doing so this season either. Thats why we are the big team, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JALBO Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 17 minutes ago, FarmerTweedy said: We get kids to games! We do, and lots of them. I do think Hibs have been pushing hard to attract younger fans though. Time will tell if it works or not, but in the meantime, it's a bit embarassing for them when they announce their official crowds just now. The empty seats all over the place just make a mockery of their official attendance - clearly there are either hundreds or more tickets given away, and/or hundreds or more tickets bought as season tickets that are rarely/never used.

They are hoping to keep some of those kids in the future. We are attracting plenty young supporters as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Out Attack Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 1 hour ago, davemclaren said: You are right in that we need to encourage kids. I think we handed out free tickets previously but that seems to have stopped now. There is a balance to be had though and a kids ticket for £50 a season ( if that is correct ) is great value imo. It is great value. The trouble is still have lots empty seats every week, so they're is scope for more. How much are we losing in food and drink sales on each empty seat. Season tickets have already been sold, so we should now be giving them away in some way shape or form. Perhaps then we will get a season ticket sale from them next year. Bit of creativity required.

As I said, I think Dagger’s initiative is absolutely outstanding. You will hear no arguments from me on that one. The empty spaces at Tynecastle are mainly down to hospitality however, I think.

Nookie Bear Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 There are plenty of kids at games these days. It's the young adult age group that i think has diminished over time, mainly because they have to pay full price for tickets on lower (or no) income.

socrates82 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 17 hours ago, All Out Attack said: I think if you take away the inflated away fan figures from Murrayfield is pretty close between ourselves and Hibs. Our home figures were also inflated due to some of the deals we had on during that spell. I don't think anyone can deny that Hibs have had a good a season and have kicked on, playing attacking football. The bottom line is goals and wins keep crowds coming back. Hibs will hit a slump sometime, so we'll see what happens to their crowds then. Our own season ticket sales next season are going to be intesting as we won't have the uniqness of the new stand as a draw. I think we may need a cup win or some genuinely exciting signings this time, to maintain our upward attendance trajectory. If we’re comparing supports there’s really no contest. You’re forgetting the small matter of 8000 or so jambos sending the club at least 10 quid a month in addition to turning up for games in consistently high numbers (not just when doing well in the league). Hibs are 4th and out the cup in this “good season” they’re having. Next season will be the first full season for the new improved Tynie. Given how Levein has turned things around I think we’ll break recent ST records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion you need momentum to continue increasing season ticket sales and unless we win the Scottish I just can't see it. We are already running at 40 year highs just now. I think this is a legacy of the Romanov era and then the combined need to save our club. Without a cup win, the style of football we play, isn't the most inspiring for attracting supporters. Your faith in Levein isn't supported by history either. There was a significant drop in attendances the last time he was in charge, as per earlier post. His football style was the same then as it is now. With a cup win we may break 15,000 ST's.

'Will that be the Levein era where we became the first British team to qualify for the group stage of the UEFA Cup and qualified for Europe two years on the bounce amid Chris Robinson protests? Gotcha.' We also finished top scorers outwith the OF both seasons. I'm sure your mob finished 8th and entered the inter tattie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we handed out free tickets previously but that seems to have stopped now. There is a balance to be had though and a kids ticket for £50 a season ( if that is correct ) is great value imo. £50 for U13s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@VladMagic Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 1 hour ago, All Out Attack said: In my opinion you need momentum to continue increasing season ticket sales and unless we win the Scottish I just can't see it. We are already running at 40 year highs just now. I think this is a legacy of the Romanov era and then the combined need to save our club. Without a cup win, the style of football we play, isn't the most inspiring for attracting supporters. Your faith in Levein isn't supported by history either. There was a significant drop in attendances the last time he was in charge, as per earlier post. His football style was the same then as it is now. With a cup win we may break 15,000 ST's. The last time Craig Levein was in charge was between 2000-2004. 1997-98 22 16642 1998-99 22 13966 1999-00 19 14115 2000-01 24 12346 2001-02 21 11974 2002-03 20 11758 2003-04 24 12219 2004-05 26 13030 2005-06 23 18155 2006-07 22 18604 2007-08 21 15566 Your faith in Levein?

johnking123 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Don't forget the wage bill was getting slashed massively every season because of the debt. Wage bill was under half of what Jefferies had to play with by 2004. Levein did well in a not so happy club at the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a manger at that time he was fine, but we weren't the most exciting team to watch. Levein himself bailed out when he saw what was coming but he got a good move for himself to Leicester.
