Silvery_Moon Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Exactly what I was thinking. Fecked if I'm scrambling about looking for tickets for this season's League Cup Final for welts that can't be arsed coming to this game like I did in May. Tossers. Exactly this.

Shanks Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 And I bet the majority of you guys are like me and have bought 2 or 3 tickets for the game! I really don't understand how we can have 10s of thousands in the street when we win the cup but not even 1% of these 'fans' feel the need to buy a ticket for a club they supposedly love when its on it's last legs!

Chaka Demus & pliers Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Some folk will buy tickets, some will buy shares, some will donate, other will buy merchandise or raffle tickets. There will be plenty that do a few or all of these. As long as everyone is doing what they can afford then that's what matters. If some people choose not to then you can assume that the club doesn't mean that much to them. I don't really see how you can have a go at someone for not caring about the club enough tbh. I like going to the cinema but if I was asked to cough up cash to save my local cinema I wouldn't bother. Some will feel this way about Hearts. Hearts means more to some than others so accept it. Those of us that do care just need to do all we can and hope that it is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo Banker Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 They should charge st holders an extra ?10 to get into the games. That would equal to around an extra 10000k surely would be the most effective way which everyone can do to and would make the club the most money.

Not fair to the core support, some of whom may not be able to pay the extra. It would lead to (more) loss of trust in the club. Donations - fine, but not this.

Drainfish Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Folk can send money without buying a ticket. I fully accept I'll be seen as 'one of those cup final fans' as I can rarely make it to the games due to work etc but have done my bit and I'm sure many others have too. I've spent over ?150 and 5000 shares which is about as much as I can afford. It may not be as obvious as a ticket but the money is still going in...

There is also the fact that ST Holders have a "contract" with the Club. ?xxx for 18 or 19 games. Cup Games are extra.

Gorgie_Rules Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Pretty confident the game will sell out, reckon alot of people wait till the week of the game to purchase their tickets with a good few perhaps getting paid middle of the month. Not to mention people paying on the day. Bottom 3 sections of the Roseburn are bronze which should shift fairly quickly at reasonable prices.

Not to mention people paying on the day. Bottom 3 sections of the Roseburn are bronze which should shift fairly quickly at reasonable prices. Which is why they are selling the upper sections first... money talks and in our situation every penny counts Pay day for many is Thursday so would expect that to boost numbers as well as share purchases PS what does 10,596 mean to you ? I give you the attendance at Easter Road today to watch table topping Hibs..................................... I really hate the mess we are in and god knows with Rudi (or a goalscorer) we could be top but that is still a poor effort from our friends in Leith.

scott herbertson Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 911 left - less than 100 outside the roseburn now. Total sold on screen = 13,958 + hospitality/ corporate + st midden's allocation - would guess they'll bring around 400. so I think we are probably just under 15000 actual attendance now with another 1200 or 1300 to come So pleased that by complete coincidence I am coming up for this one (arranged a couple of months ago) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Factor Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 On the walk-up thing, maybe the lower Roseburn is what they plan to use for that purpose? Geoff, it makes sense to shift the upper parts of the Roseburn first as those seats are more expensive than the lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groot Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I haven't read the whole thread but it would be an idea if ST holders who aren't going, and have not otherwise disposed of their ticket, contact the club and allow them to sell that seat not only for Saturday. Same with other big games where a sell-out is possible. Quite often we have over 1000 ST holders not attending so that could bring in another ?20k or so. Little acorns ......

janie jones Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Just hope the players take a lift from this and go for the throats and keep at it until we have choked every last breath out of that shower.

Generic Username Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 We should all be actively encouraging people to these games, not ******* greeting about folk being "part time" fans or whatever nonsense. Getting people in and getting bums on seats is what's important. Spend your time on the blower to folk you know who haven't been along in a while, offer them a ticket, whatever it takes instead of wasting yours and everyone elses time ******* trolling folk on the internet at a time like this.
